Cute little mom and pop shop with a warm atmosphere. Heads up bring cash or debit. We absolutely loved this place. My sister and I tried it for the first time because she really wanted to try some bún bò huế which she got; I ordered the grilled chicken pho and some fried wontons. Oh my days! The soup bases were SO delicious flavourful and fragrant. Every sip of broth felt like the warmest coziest hug. The meat in the bún bò huế was melt-in-your-mouth tender and the grilled chicken was so juicy with a nice char. The meat to soup to noodle ratio is spot on you get a little of each down to the last bite! The owner was so kind and helped us decide, so were the other two servers helping out they were so attentive and sweet. We can’t wait to come back!

The atmosphere was a bit crowdy but can’t blame much because the chicken sandwiches were great. A little less cilantro would have been appreciated in the sandwich but otherwise they were great. The garlic fish sauce chicken wings is what i would recommend everyone.

Very busy, went in on a Saturday at 7 pm and we got lucky to get a dining table. We got the vegan pho with spicy vegetable broth and the rice paper Greengrass spring roll. It was our first time eating Vietnamese food, SOO GOOOD. Highly recommend Please do note: they do not offer halal options which is unfortunate and something I hope they add in the future as my husband couldn't order anything meat

Went here for dinner and was surprised to find a really great Vietnamese pho restaurant in this area. The banh MI was excellent with really crispy bread and the vermicelli with grilled chicken and spring rolls was delicious. The portions were awesome and we felt very full afterwards. This will become our go to spot whenever we are in the area.

Where do I even begin? The owner is absolutely amazing! I was welcomed with a warm, friendly smile. I mentioned that it was my first time trying Pho and that I discovered her restaurant on TikTok. I’ll definitely be back to try everything on the menu. Keep an eye out for my review on TikTok!

My first visit to Good Pho You was prompted by the Google reviews that caught my attention. Despite the snug setting, the place was busy with activity, mainly catering to take-out orders. The food was served promptly and exceeded expectations. Toward the end of the night, there was a bit of a wait to settle the bill, and during that time, table service seemed a bit stretched. Despite these observations, my overall experience at Good Pho You was positive. It left me wondering if they might have been short-staffed on that particular day, I would give them a try again.

I was running some errands in Ajax and decided to stop really quickly for lunch. Rare beef pho was phenomenal. Broth was well balanced and meat was fresh. Ratio of noodles to beef to broth was perfect. Got the grilled pork fresh rolls were also great, I usually get shrimp but getting the pork this time around was the right move. The viet iced coffee with condensed milk is amazing. I make it a point to try it at every pho place and this place is probably now one of my favourites. ** no pictures cause the food slapped so hard I forgot

I love this place, which is why Im so so sad to post this review. They were not only offering the best curry broth pho in the GTA, but probably that Ive ever had. Perfectly located near me in Ajax. I didnt ever get any other kind of pho in the 1 year+ Ive been there. Sent all my friends, family, and colleagues to try it, who also loved it. Found out that theyve discontinued it, and Im devastated. Where will I get my curry broth pho fix now? The withdrawal is real!

We were travelling from Montreal to make our way to Toronto and found the only pho place close to us for lunch. Gave this place a shot. Decent selection from the menu and had a whole vegetarian menu for my grandma. We got the 2 pho house special(medium and large) , 1 pho beef ball only , bun bo hue vegetarian and 1 grilled checked vermicelli. We also order the crispy chicken wings but the picture was completely different on the menu then in person. It was very sauce and not crispy at all like the photo online. The portions are very big! Overall everything will good

A very delicious meal. Called ahead to order take out. Everything was ready in 15 minutes and still piping hot. Bring cash for a 10% discount. Fresh/cold rolls are generous in size, and paired with a yummy dipping sauce. Both the beef pho and house special vermicelli were delicious dishes. Very satisfying.

I have eaten as this place before, the food was great so I decided to return after a few months. After this experience I will never return. When I went to pick up my order the women at the cash was very blunt and rude. Took my meal home as take out. The grilled chicken pho was rubbery and potentially undercooked which made physcially ill. The beef bal pho texture was extremely off-putting and the cinnamon in the broth was very overpowering. Overall a terrible experience and would not recommend going. I wish I could get my money back.

A friend recommended that it tastes good. I went there for the first time today at noon. I ordered a wonton noodles, a beef rice noodle, a beef noodle, a chicken chop rice and chicken wings. Three of us went there, and one of the family members ate it. I had a bowl of beef rice noodles and thought it tasted strange. I thought I was not used to the taste of this restaurant. But I started vomiting half an hour after I finished eating and got into the car. I vomited two or three times in one afternoon.

Service was fantastic - we couldnt finish everything we ordered and the waitress offered to help by packing my leftovers into takeout containers.

But then a different lady caught me outside and said she could figure out how to print it out for me. I really appreciate her doing that. It should have been something easy to do in the first place, but the restaurant redeemed itself with that ladys customer service. So overall great experience and my coworkers and I enjoyed the food.

I really enjoy the food at this restaurant, especially their lemongrass tofu rice. The fried shrimp roll is also a must-try. My husband is a fan of their pho; however, we find that the soup base tends to be on the lighter side in terms of flavor. The only issue weve encountered is the wait time for our food, which can be a bit too long. Sometimes it takes more than 30 minutes. Aside from this, everything else is great.

The pho soup does taste like it has MSG, the brisket was a bit tough could be cooked longer, rare beef, tripe, & flank were nicely prepared. The pork on vermicelli was seasoned and cooked well. Veg served with both dishes were fresh and washed. Spring and fresh rolls were nice. Doesn t replace pho from the city but better than others I ve tried in Durham region.

This place made me realize how much I miss Pho Giato. Had the house special. Broth was very light and didn t seem hot enough. I swear I don t have COVID right now. But the broth was so bland. Even adding the hoisin and the glow in the dark sriracha couldn t save it. Watched a couple of regulars bust out their own soy sauce. Lol Good/great pho does not need any extra seasoning, even hoisin. My tripe wasn t prepared enough and the beef was tough. Really disappointed in the pho. But I guess it s to cater to all the locals in the area. The vermicelli bowl on the other hand was pretty good. I ve had the Bhan mi and it s decent. But don t expect Bhan Mi Boyz type of Bhan mi. The grilled beef/chicken on either of these are great. Service was ok. Could have been better. Like when I order an appetizer, I d like the appetizer first and not last after I ve eaten my main. I m assuming the owner is running the til. She s pretty sassy. Needs to chill out. Nothing special about this place. But there aren t many good options in ajax. Again, I miss pho giato.

Attention to customer care was poor, I ordered a Vegetarian special meal and asked previously about pricing and sizes as I was on a budget, they said the prices were different not understanding my question. When I ordered I stated small and confused instead of clarifying she placed my order. I revived the one size priced higher than I wanted. Not only that but I found a few very small pieces of beef in my vegetarian meal . More care should have been put into questions such as, did you mean this? Or are you vegetarian? Unimpressed. Vegetarian options: More care should be put towards customers who cannot eat meat, quite disrespectful

Tried Pho for the first time and they did NOT disappoint. Very flavourful and fresh. Did not have to wait long for the food & the staff was very friendly. Will definitely be coming back.

My husband and I love this place and are weekly regulars (no judgement please ). It s a small, maybe 30 seater, restaurant but bright, fast service and consistent quality. The portions are great and I can t say enough about the flavours. The Pho broth is one of the tastiest I have had. We typically call in advance to order for take out as orders take about 20 minutes to pull together even without being super busy. Our go-to order is a large grilled chicken pho and and grilled chicken/beef platter with a fried egg. We have also tried oxtail and rare beef pho. Their fish sauce chicken wings are also super tasty! This place is a gem and I am happy it s only 5 minutes from home ! Frank and Michelle

We ordered pho: the house special and the tripe with rare beef. Both bowls were very good but the broth was abit too fatty - their broth is south vietnamese style. The size is large and it is QUITE LARGE. Bigger than a large in toronto and gta. Generous amount of noodles and protein. There could have been more tripe and less beef but its a minor observation on my part. We did not completely finish our bowls cause there was alot of noodles and protein. This pho restaurant will be our post casino pho getaway, whether we have a good or bad day at the craps table. Great place in Ajax !!!

They charge $1 for the extra chili oil and more $$ for the extra broth that comes with the rice meal. Server was unaccomodating. No good pho you.

I called in and ordered the grilled chicken banh mi for takeout during my lunch break. The service was really fast and the lady taking my order over the phone was so sweet. The meat was perfectly grilled, really flavourful and juicy. There was a slight sweetness to it without it being too sweet. There was also a lot of meat in the sandwich considering it was less than $10. The bread was fresh with a nice crunch and the pickled veggies added satisfying acidity that balanced the sandwich really well. It was very filling without being too heavy. Make sure to bring cash so you can save 10%! I ll definitely be visiting again!

My family and I had ordered the large chicken phos with grilled beef. It was exceedingly flourish and tasty, but I would call the medium next time. I would order next time because I wouldnt say I like being watched when eating, but the pho was 100% perfect thanks, chef :)

The place is small, not a lot of seating and was said to be one of the better and more authentic places in Durham. One person in our party of three specified that they had a peanut allergy and peanuts were still sprinkled in the food. Overall the food was alright, and service was mediocre. We nearly had a serious health scare because of this incident and most likely would not return again.

Amazing Pho in Ajax! There arent many good Vietnamese restaurants in Durham, so Im glad I stumbled across this place. The restaurant is very small so it fills up fast but thats a good thing as the food and service is excellent. The pho broth, noodles, and toppings are all delicious and fresh. The spring rolls are tasty as well. The prices are a bit high for this area but its well worth it. This place is a must visit! Parking: Plaza gets busy so parking can be a challenge. Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible.

Ordered food from here a few times. It s one of the best Vietnamese places I ve tried in the GTA. It s so good and the portions are huge. The grilled chicken are thick pieces. I ordered the vermicelli with chicken and sausage for lunch takeout once. When I picked up the bag I was shocked how heavy it felt. I was full for the rest of the afternoon which is rare for me. Another time I ordered the grilled chicken with rice and fried egg. I looked under the piece of grilled chicken and there was another piece. It took up half the container. I don t know about dinner hours but if you plan to go for dine-in lunch go early because it s a small place and the tables fill up. I highly recommend Good Pho You if you re looking for authentic Vietnamese flavour and good value.

Good Pho You is a cozy place where you can enjoy a good meal with good company. We had one the beef pho soup and one vegetarian pho soup (spicy). The beef pho was VERY good. The broth is rich yet still clean and light. The noodles were tastier than other pho places in the area. For the spicy vegetarian pho, the tofu was YUM-MY! Broth was delissssh. The only thing I would change (and this is just my personal preference) is that the noodles would be the same as the beef soups where the noodles are the flat rice noodles AND that the vegetarian soup could come in size small like the other soups. We also had an appetizer. We had the fish sauce wings. OMG, they were so good! I ate at least half of the dozen wings, lol. The staff was very nice, attentive, and considerate. One of the pho accidentally had the wrong broth, and the waiter told us about it immediately. They told us they would make a new soup, but swe said it was okay and they gave us a discount to make up for it as well as give us a smaller bowl of what the correct broth was to add to the soup. All in all, good pho place that is good pho you

Went here for the first time as our go-to pho place was closed. I give it a star for having a fresh pho broth. Another star because the server was not only kind, but was also entertaining and helpful with the menu. The last 3 stars because even if it was fully packed during lunch time, it didnt feel like they were rushing customers, nor did the service falter.

Whether youre looking for a hot bowl of pho or a vermicelli bowl, this place here will guarantee high quality ingredients in all their dishes and does not lack on the protein. Everything on their menu is packed with authentic flavours and very consistent. Please dont ever change, only place in the Durham region I trust when it comes to Vietnamese cuisine.

November 29, 2023 around 6:30pm was the first visit to Good Pho You. Modern design, flooring & layout of restaurant. Very clean and open establishment. Ordered medium sized beef flank pho. Piping hot when it came out and multiple layers of flavor in the broth and meat. Very enjoyable & will return. Great service upon entering and welcoming. It took a while to get the bill however understandable as there were multiple take out orders under preparation.

Wow wow wow. Im lucky the other place was close . Lucky to stumble upto this shop. The food is simple yet packed with flavors. I order the pho special, spring roll, cold roll .. it was all good. Place was small but non stop customers . Staff were kind and food came in good timing . Sorry not able to take photos . As was busy snacking lol Dec7,2023 --- came back for my birthday celebration. Food was still very good prices have definitely went higher large is 17.99 what was surprising was we added extra noodle for both our noodle for $4 for each bowl ..the bowl was full of noodle. But there was no more soup .they wanna charge extra for $1.50 for a small bowl . I think this is a turn off . Where u already paid $25 bucks for a bowl of noodle soup . With no soup . They need to rethink how its been charged.

Shame I can t zero this place. Worst hospitality experience I ve had a in a long time from a restaurant.

December 21, 2023

Disgusting business. My boyfriend and I just had a really humiliating experience at this spot today. We were really excited to try their food for the first time, but left within 5 minutes of sitting down because we were yelled at by the woman behind the counter in front of the entire restaurant. I am also a server in the restaurant industry and would never speak to a guest the way she did to us. The man who greeted us at the door told us to sit down at the only empty table, while he went to go clean it. However, as soon as we sat down, the woman behind the counter yelled at us in an extremely hostile way to get up so he can clean the table. Why say it in that way? Especially after he told us we could sit down? I was so excited to try the food after the amazing reviews. We love to support local businesses regularly, and have plenty of friends and family in the area who love to do the same. They will never be getting business from us or our circle. DO NOT SUPPORT.

The people there are really nice! But this is the worst pho Ive ever had. Idk what all these reviews are talking about. I can only speak to the pork spring rolls and rare beef & tripe pho. Its overpriced for what it is. The springroll and pho lack flavour. The broth is just slightly flavoured water. I rather travel a little further east and get something thats hits the spot
