I’ve ordered twice since the new owners took over and I tell you the pho is delicious. The new menu is small but the flavor is bang on. Anyone who ever enjoyed little Saigon before they closed will definitely enjoy pho26

Food was great, atmosphere of the place was really good and the new owners who just opened today were very welcoming and provided great service. Me and family were glad to have come here for our first pho bowls. I recommend everyone to give it a try !

I love the food, it's very fresh and plenty for the price. Atmosphere great for the type of place, as expected. English isn't the first language of servers. However the menu is easy to reference and even has numbers, so unless you have issues with people who don't speak perfect English, it really is good enough to order food and drinks. It's a small cozy place, not big fancy or expensive. Great Value for friends and nice shareables. My favorite is Shrimp Tom Yum soup. Delicious!!

First time here. I ordered well done beef pho (it was not on the menu which is strange). Service was a bit slow & food was ok. The employees don't speak good English so it's hard to convey a message or understand what they responding

One of the most bizarre dining experiences ever. The staff didn't say more than ten words to us. We were the only people in the place and not much takeout happening (which should have been a warning). Pho dish was ok, Bahn mi was awful and spring rolls were ok. Better places to eat in Burlington for sure.

Food was prepared quickly, staff were kind and knew what they were doing as I asked several questions of items I knew but wasn't familiar with the names of. The broth was decent, not overly salty, I enjoy more depth to my soups but it did well to satisfy my craving. All the fillings fresh and delicious. I got take out, and prepared my Pho by heating it in a bowl as is intended with Vietnamese takeout but not everyone knows that. But its normal across the board. I will be visiting again. Thanks :)

Well like the reviews stated the food was very salty. Spring rolls just average and fish sauce was very watered down. No Jasmine tea only earl grey? Restaurant was completely empty over lunch…. Will not return unfortunately.

April 24, 2019

I am appalled by how disgusting this food was. The first bite that I took was of the pictured (6 dumplings shrimp and pork). They were slimy, and VERY expired. It literally made me sick. Worst part is.. when I called to let them know that their food was bad, they didn't even seem concerned. They just said that we could drive to the store to pick up a new batch. (even though I ordered delivery). No apologies, nothing. DO NOT order from here. Absolutely the worst delivery experience I've ever had. Ps. the Pho that it came with, the broth, veggies, meat and noodles were all in separate containers.Basically if you order Pho you have to put the soup together yourself. What a joke.

Called them at 8:45pm while I was still at work Vietnamese guy picked up who could barely string together an English sentence let alone understand what I was trying to order Finally somehow managed to get him to understand my order Asked him if I can pick up at 9:30pm Arrive at 9:30pm, guy makes me pay Food is clearly not done yet and I realize this after he just begins to make my order in the kitchen I am left waiting for over 45 minutes for the order to be made This is after a 12 hour shift

I ordered a seafood stir fry from here it was prepared in a reasonable time frame and it was pretty good taste wise. The chicken wings that I ordered seemed a bit small for the price. I m not sure I would order the wings again because they were nothing special. I would visit here again for the stir fry.

I just had Ubereats deliver me a meal and to be honest it was absolutely the worst food I have ever received. The dumplings were greasy gelatinous balls of goo. The chicken for the soup was gray. The only thing that I was able to actually consume from this meal was the can of ginger ale. And the Uber eats app conveniently choked so I couldnt put a review in there. I dont usually complain but this entire meal went in the garbage and I will never order from this restaurant again. Truly disgusting

Most other diners made the mistake of going to this pho shop and ordering non-pho food. Absolutely wonderful broth, nice servers. If you are going to order on uber, dont, you have to come in. Vegetarian options: A few good ones

★★

Its good food but the restaurant will respond to online orders by shutting down for pick up. I have tried to order food here 8 times, and only managed to get something twice. I dont like waiting 10 minutes for my order to be accepted, only to check my phone and see the restaurant has closed for pickup. Dont advertise pickup options if youre not going to fulfil them.

I have to give 4 stars in entirety because they got our order wrong, but 5 stars as the food was still amazing. Ordered a Viatnemese Thick Clear Noodle Soup with Pork but we got the regular noodles. However, it was absolutely delicious. Broth was salty and amazing, the portions are huge, and toppings were plenty and all very fresh. Stir fry mixed vegetables with beef was good but doesnt mention including noodles.

Painfully average. If youre in the area and REALLY want pho, its passable, but otherwise I would avoid. I ordered the house combination pho. The broth was decent - Id say average or slightly above average. The rare beef and beef balls were fine, but the brisket and tripe were particularly awful. The beef was tough as all get out, and it had a slightly off taste to it - as if it had been cooked and then kept in the fridge for a little too long, The tripe had an odd texture and honestly after having one bit of it I left the rest in the bowl. The sriracha and hoisin were el cheapo knockoff brands. So if youre desperate for pho and come here, stick with the rare beef and/or beef balls.

I went in to order PHO for takeout and the employee come out from the back looking surprised. I told him what I wanted to order and he said they arent open yet (it was 12:30pm- sign says open at 11am) and then he said there is no cook today. With no other explanation he just stood there. Very strange experience. I will try another PHO place next time.

I order from here regularly and love it. Try rare beef phô and the pork sausage banh mi! A banh mi is a Vietnamese sandwich on a small baguette, it has julienned carrot and cucumber, a little cilantro and the pork sausage which isn t encased and tastes amazing!

December 21, 2022

The worst pho restaurant ever had. Grilled chicken is like a piece of charcoal. The noodles and meat in large size pho is like only the medium size elsewhere in Toronto Or mississagura. Really waste of money.

I was so shocked to find a Bun cha ca on the menu to order. It was delicious. I havent tried anything else yet on the menu but I will definitely be back to. I am vietnamese so finding a good pho place in Burlington has been tough. I am very impressed at the fact they even had that dish. Next I will be trying the Bun bo Hue and if its a solid dish then this will be my new pho spot! Update: do not get the Bun bo Hue. Also the lady is not friendly lol

December 21, 2022

This is the worse pho restaurant I had ever ate at ,, food was so salty milk shake was more like watery and I order pork chop on the side and she never brought it to me,,, lousy server I spend a lot of money for food that was not great ,,, never again I ll eat at this place

I would give zero stars if possible, we were in the area and strayed from our usual pho place BIG MISTAKE! The waitress who also was the cook seemed surprised to have any customers, it was completely empty! she wasn t very nice but I chucked it to a language barrier but the food was a total disappointment. Weird Noodles seemed overcooked, pork and just about everything did not taste like a typical pho restuarant would. Sauces were all watered down. We quickly paid and ran away! Don t be like me read the reviews first. Don t waste your money on this place, Bad food, bad service and pricey for what it is. YUCKKK

Usually my go-to PHO using UBEReats to deliver. With kiddos sick often these days like everyone else, ordering has been great .. except today. They were open but not available on UBEReats to deliver until after 1pm. My sick daughter was begging all morning for the soup and explaining to her that they cannot deliver earlier was a battle. Then without notice, order was cancelled by the restaurant. If not available then remove it completely from UBEReats. We could have ordered much earlier from someone else rather than waiting.

New to Burlington and have been ordering through skip the dishes from local restaurants. Wish I had read reviews on here before ordering. I ordered vermicelli with chicken and spring roll. The main meal was salty I think it was the peanuts and the crispy fried onions. Wasn t expecting those since it didn t describe on the description of the meal. I d have preferred green onions. On too of being really salty, there was very little chicken served with the meal. Was expensive for the small portion. I ordered an extra order of spring rolls because usually I love them. These ones tasted very different than anything I ve had. Couldn t eat them. Had to throw them out. Not likely to order again.

Not sure why people are butchering the reviews, possibly restaurant standards were off before, or I have been ordering good dishes, I usually get the veggie paper spring rolls or the tofu pad thai, its great, my friend also ordered the fish cake noodle soup and enjoyed it. The best is their honey chia seed drink and the honey green tea in kengan water(although i cant tell if they use tap water) have both these drinks ice cold it is great, oh yeah and their flan was ok, a bit on the bitter side but still decent. I deducted one star because they are a bit on the pricier side, but this is understood because having a restaurant on Plains means higher rent or property taxes if they are the owners, that is a rich person neighborhood.

Lmao dying reading the reviews here, and the owners responses are even funnier sorry no car for reviews saying they got half their order and the resturant refused to do anything, hahaha. Seems like the worst restaurant ever, how are they still in business??! When hundreds of people give 1 star reviews you should steer clear. Thanks for the laugh pho 26, I wont be sampling your food though.

Very surprised by all the negative reviews. I come here often and have been to many Ph restaurants in the GTA. I only come at lunch and don t get anything other than the Ph só I don t know about the rolls and other items. It s always been fast and good and hot with decent service. Maybe we ve been luck but have been going almost weekly for several months.

I ve had a rare beef pho with tendons & tripe. Beef was well done and tasted like a dry beef roast instead of a flank that s usually used. I ve got one piece of tendon & tripe each. Had to down a glass of water because msg caused my mouth to be dryer that Sahara desert. Definitely a bad rep for viet restaurants. My girl had bun bo hue with no red cabbage ffs, tasted almost identical to my broth with exception of a spicy oil drizzle on top.

A disappointing experince. We ordered take out from here without reading these reviews . Now Ive experienced what it means to eat one star quality food. It was bland, and we were so thirsty after. Id imagine it was because of msg. They skimped on the toppings. Wont be back.

December 21, 2020

This is a brand new resturant. our first visit was terrible, the portions were very small. I ordered the rice noodle, when it arrived there was no rice noodles just vegetable -_- also the price was exepsive compared to other resturants

December 21, 2020

Worst experience I ve ever had ordering Vietnamese food. I ordered spring rolls, chicken wings and two vermicelli bowls. The first vermicelli bowl was supposed to have a spring roll with it, I mentioned this to them and they claimed it was in a separate bag which I did not receive whatsoever as the side order of spring rolls contained only 4. The second vermicelli bowl was even worse as it was missing one of the meats and I also asked for nuts on the side as I have a peanut allergy. They addressed the nut issue saying it was not mixed with the meat but any other pho restaurant I ve been to puts them in a separate container to avoid cross contamination. Sad to say I was unable to even eat the meal and I had to re order food from somewhere else as it was too late to call them back and bring up the issue. They did not even acknowledge the fact that the bowl was missing the second meat and were so hung up on the missing spring roll. No apologies, they just kept defending themselves and only offered me to come in today to pick up the missing spring roll. I would not recommend anyone to order from this place whatsoever. Very very disappointed.

December 21, 2020

Ordered pho delivery. Chicken pho wasnt bad, but average. Beef pho broth arrived cold and in a tiny container. There wasnt enough room to add the raw meat so Im not sure how I was supposed to eat it. Poured out some broth then added the raw meat but broth was cold so it didnt cook the raw meat and I had to microwave both to cook the food in the microwave. Then no space to add the noodles in the tiny container... Would not order from there again.

December 21, 2020

This is literally the saddest order of food I ve EVER received. The fresh spring rolls were falling apart and pathetic- one piece of wilty lettuce and noodles. The menu says vegetables . If I had known vegetables = ONE piece of lettuce I would have saved myself $5.00. The chicken pho was also flavorless and colourless. Boiled hunks of white chicken, and watery broth (likely the chicken water the chicken was cooked in). I ended up raiding my fridge and adding my own ingredients (whatever I could find) to make this a somewhat acceptable meal- but honestly I just felt like I waisted my money. VERY disappointing and will NOT be ordering from here again.

December 21, 2020

Server was so rude, the portion of the food was so little for a very expensive price.. the chicken and pork that we ordered was too salty.

December 21, 2019

ordered through skip the dishes, the banh mi bun was stale, and the only thing on it was mayo, coriander and overcooked pork sausage, lacking the satay sauce I had ordered with it. the meat in the pho was overcooked as well, very dry. even my black tea with tapioca was underwhelming, with half the pearls rock hard in the center. I havent been this disappointed with a food order in awhile. but I learned an important lesson! always check google reviews for a place before ordering from skip.

Ordered for delivery through Skip The Dishes. The restaurant forgot to send part of our order. I called them and they said they wouldnt deliver what they forgot and I could apply for a refund through Skip The Dishes. I asked them to please deliver what we ordered, we are approximately 6 blocks away. They refused. Ill never order from them again. Their customer service and satisfaction is abysmal to say the least. There are many other Vietnamese restaurants I can order from. Skip The Dishes was very good about handling the refund. Because of this poor handling of rectifying their error, I am giving them a 1 star rating.

December 21, 2019

Like another reviewer, I ordered through Skip the Dishes for delivery. Pho 26 missed 1/4 of the order! And the rest of the order was cold! Called Pho 26 to request missing items but was told - after nearly 10 minutes on phone - if I wanted them I would have to collect them from the restaurant. Skip the Dishes were good and refunded the missing items. I wouldn t order from Pho 26 again ! IN RESPONSE TO PHO 26 COMMENT: other items missing

Great local Vietnamese restaurant, dont have to go down to Brant for a classic bowl of pho. The grilled pork banh mi was also seasoned and cooked nicely. Food was fresh, the restaurant is the cleanest of any Viet restaurant I have ever been to (for anyone who knows, it says alot), and the host was hospitable. I know its still new and have lots of opportunities for growth but its off to a good start. Definitely coming back.

I usually never leave reviews but I was compelled to after how terrible the food was! Thought I would try this place out and it was a bad idea I ordered take out the restaurant was completely empty at dinner time which should ve been a good enough sign not to proceed but anyways the pho I ordered was supposed to be chicken That was with made with what tasted to be meat broth or something and the noodles were served in paper dish and all the paper at the bottom Stuck to the nooodles and was impossible to pick off all the tiny little piece of paper stuck to the food! Not a good experience at all tasted gross !

Danm there aint nothing authentic vietnamese about this restaurant to carry such the signature cuisine. My bud and I were served some sort of noodle soups that look good in their menu picture but came out nasty and taste like $#it. Its must have been customized by the owner like no other traditional recipes and added lots of Msg to fake the taste that I got sick and thirsty like hell after drinking the soup broth. We both agreed that this business can only survive on selling Pho to the white folks near here who know no better place to enjoy real asian dishes; but honestly Im sure even these guys will eventually realize that a $10 McDonalds meal do taste and presented far better than a $12.99 overpriced bowl of soup here in this case! For real...

Worse Vietnamese cuisine ever, just terrible. Taste nothing but salty and serving portion was small. It was pricey considering the quality and quantity of the food. Menu on the picture was different than the actual (one of the order was congee, and they served rice on the bowl with pho soup and chunks of chicken, unacceptable). If you dont believe it, you can compare yourselves with other pho like dao bo or 289.

I dont normally give reviews and I really struggled with whether or not to post this one. But I have never had such a crazy experience, so I just have to. The food was just OK, just unremarkable and the service was terrible - I went around 2:30 a couple of weeks ago by myself and because it was past usual lunch time, I guess, I was the only customer there. There was a young man behind the counter who said maybe 2 words to me the whole time I was there and seemed annoyed by my presence. But it gets better... a second young man came in after I had been given a menu and went to the back, I assumed to work in the kitchen or something. After I placed my order I asked to use the bathroom and was pointed to the back where the bathrooms are. There were two on the left hand side of the corridor and both doors were open. So naturally I turned into the first bathroom only to find the second young male employee with his is pants down past his butt, peeing!!!! I was mortified and quickly walked past and to the second bathroom. I couldnt believe it. I dont know if he saw me or not because his back (AND BUTT) were facing me. I didnt know what to do, if I should leave or what, because I had already placed my order! I decided to just race through my meal, pay and go back to work. What the hell, Pho 26? Teach your employees to close then door before they go to the bathroom!!!!! First restaurant Ive been to where Ive seen an employees bare butt. One thing is certain... I wont be going back!

Pretty disappointing experience with false advertising and over pricing! We went on labour day and it was dead quiet. We got our food in a timely fashion but the bbq sandwiches were bare! There was very little meat for the price. ( I could get a better more fuller sandwich downtown for half the price) Only after did i notice that the sandwiches lacked any pickled carrot or daikon or even fresh coriander. When i pointed this out the guy who took our order confessed they ran out. No apologies or discount on price, nothing was done to take personal ownership of skimping on food for profit. Not cool. The presentation was poor with a single lonely cucumber slice. The spring rolls were tiny and skimpy too. This was just a really lackluster experience and not really trying with lack of competition in the area.

The broth was warm, not piping hot when it was delivered to my table. For an xl sized order, i expected more noodles. The service was fine. Nothing else impressed me about the pho. A note to the owner. Please do not reply with your repetitive lame note .... I WILL NOT COME BACK TO YOUR RESTAURANT. Dear pho 26, in reference to your reply, my meal WAS AT YOUR RESTAURANT. So, you cannot make up any excuses for the poor performance of your kitchen staff. Nice try... Remember, serve your broth very hot, otherwise, expect more BAD reviews...

If I could give them zero stars I would. I never write bad reviews but wow this place is terrible. I ordered on skip the dishes and they sent wrong food and half of my order missing. The noodles in my soup were rock hard the meat tasted terrible and old. I called and all they did was hang up on me. Do yourself a favour and dont waste your hard earned money on this place. Ive eaten at many many phos and this is by far the worst. Terrible customer service and terrible food.

Disappointed. Overpriced. Ordered a Bahn Mi, spring rolls, vermicelli w/ shrimp and deep fried calamari. The sandwich only had meat, cucumber and hot sauce. No carrots, coriander... Nothing else. Calamari was worse, almost $10 for a pretty sad looking appetizer! Would not order here again, would not recommend.

Enjoyable experience! Was told the restaurant only opened a few days ago. The fresh vegetable rolls with peanut sauce, was delicious - a hefty portion for an appetizer. The rare beef ball soup with tripe (pho) was delicious, but lukewarm. Would recommend the deep fried banana. I appreciated the easy to read english translations in the menu. Good luck for the future.

One star review is bogus as the place has only been open 12 days (not months). Had the pho with everything and spring rolls. Food was decent and tasty... not best Vietnamese I ve had, but above average. Service was exceptionally attentive and friendly. And they accept Visa.

Sorry for the long review - but the food was so disappointing it needs this long of a rant. I was so excited when I first saw this place being renovated before its opening, the pho in burlington is so weak compared to hamilton and Stoney Creek. I was so excited to finally go for dinner there the other night and can honestly say I ve never been more disappointed in my life by food. The spring rolls came with a sauce that came out of the bottle, and the spring rolls themselves seemed to be frozen and baked in the oven. The wonton soup I had tasted like it was stuffed with old processed sausage meat, my boyfriends chicken and rice noodle soup literally lasted like nothing. Both soups were also piping hot and could not be touched for a very long time. I did however appreciate the japchae noodles that were used in the stir fry, it s just a shame that it came with legitimately no chicken on it what so ever, and the sauce that the stir fry was all over the plate and it was as if I was eating a second soup that was served to me on a plate this time. It s a good thing the wonton soup I didn t eat was still sitting there for me to literally pour the sauce from my stir fry into the bowl of soup to make more room and have it be less disgusting. Since I love pho so much, and I could see the disappointment on the other people s faces in the restaurant eating at the time. I really hope that they make a few changes so they can stick around in Burlington and I will give this place one more chance in six months if they are still around.

Honestly wish I could give this place higher than 5 stars! The staff is great and attentive, the food tastes fresh and the prices are amazing for the portion size you get. I always have left overs for lunch the next day. Food comes out five minutes after you order. We love coming here and tell everyone about it!

A friendly, family run business. Excellent service and nice atmosphere. It is also very clean, nicely decorated, elegant while still casual and comfortable. I honestly have nothing bad to say about here. Will definitely go again and try other menu items!
