HONG THAI RESTAURANT in Cochrane

Best Vietnamese restaurant in Cochrane!! great value, very good food, and excellent service.

Excellent fresh well priced and always fantastic customer service

Great food! Vermicelli plate was tasty, salad rolls were refreshing and chewy. Service was amazing

Very good!!!!!!!

Beat salad rolls and Vietnamese subs! Love the tofu options as well!

Very good food and excellent service. Highly recommended.

Very good food! Nice crisp vegetables and great sauce. Nice presentation and exceptional service. Have eaten here before, always good!

One of the best places for Vermicelli noodles! They add a lot of salad and bean sprouts to the order, which I love. Dietary restrictions: Vermicelli noodles are rice noodles but I asked for one of the two orders to be gluten free so it was made with different noodles. Note: If you ask for gluten free they told me it would take longer than the regular noodles (20 mins).

Nice and clean and good food. Great hosts.

best thai restaurant in cochrane

This was my third visit...and best yet. And now that I have made three positive visits, I will tell you this: this is the best damn Vietnamese restaurant in Cochrane and I will tell you why. First, prices...best prices I have seen out of any of their competitors. Second, portions...HUGE. Nuff said about that. Third, service...the guy behind the counter is very attentive. He is watching to make sure your needs are met. For example, the sun was hitting half the guests at the table in the face. By the time I had reached behind me to pull the blind down...he was there doing it for me. Fourth, details....your eating utensils whether it be chopsticks or fork are waiting for you in a cup of warm water so that you do not have cold utensils touching your food or your mouth. Smart! Fifth and most important...the taste of the food. And this is where they really shine. We started off with the crispy pork belly salad rolls. Best salad rolls I have ever had....bar none. Youngest daughter also had the grilled pork rolls...also excellent. Oldest daughter and her BF had another soup and a vermicelli noodle bowl...bith loved it. My mother and wife both had the beef soup where you pick three types of beef. My wife asked for her broth to be a saté and ot was made that way. Both broths were super tasty and loaded with noodles and beef. I had the Pad Thai...and it was spectacular. I added some of the additional saté paste that we asked for and that took it over the top with flavour. Overall, six of us ate and were very very satisfied. This place should have a lineup as the food is THAT good. I even took a pic of the Pad Thai...but cannot see where I can attach it to the review. Go eat here...these people are doing it right!!

Special beef noodle soup and stir fried egg noodles were excellent.

Purchased a gift certificate, they didn t provide a proper receipt for it , one of the staff barely spoke English so he called the manager, manager was mad that he got called in , was very rude didn t help with the issue and stunk like ash tray we asked to be contacted by the owner but never got a call, too bad they don t care about their business and customers. Would probably order food but the service is disappointing.

Incredible authentic food made fresh by a family with generations of cooking expertise & a passion for quality & customer service :) Love eating here! Kid-friendliness: First class service

The serving is excellent ! and we always go to this place and their congee is the best.

Do yourself and your tastebuds a favour ! We loved the fresh flavours ! Generous portions so make sure you re hungry. Super friendly service and the place is absolutely spotless. Take a break from the burger and fry joints, your body will definitely thank you. Food

An awesome experience and very tasty food, we will be back

I ordered house special vermicelli and it was really delicious. However the deep fried butter chicken wings were not so good, lacked flavour even with hot sauce still wasn t good.

Very nice waiter, amazing food, delicious bubble tea, clean and well kept. Prices were great (entrees <$10, bubble tea <$6) and the music and atmosphere was nice.

Best Vietnamese in Cochrane!

Delicious fresh food and the sauces are all made daily. Sate and fish sauce are the best in town.

Im person who almost never writes reviews but after looking for Vietnamese food in this beautiful city, HongThai restaurant made me share it with you guys. Me and my friends had a delicious and well-served meal before going to banff national park. The owner is an experienced person you can refer to if you dont know what to do and where to go . You will get more than you pay Enjoy your trip my friend !

Nice place, good food

Pho is excellent!!!! nice & clean restaurant, great service!!!

The food is always perfect, I eat alot of Vietnamese food and this might be my favourite place! The waitress is also super nice and helpful, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is calm and peaceful! I usually get the beef noodle soup and salad rolls but I m eager to try new things

Was extremely disappointed. Hong Thai has been our regular go-to only b/c they are on skip the dishes... and its been mediocre each time. We ordered tonight and my wife ordered vermicelli with beef, shrimp and spring roll. She received ONE shrimp. One lonely shrimp, and the rest of the portion was underwhelming. I ordered the beef sub. It was basically a hollow bun with about 2 oz of meat, a tiiiiiny sliver of cucumber, about 10 shredded carrot pieces and 2 sprigs of cilantro. Will no longer support this business. We initially thought this was a one-off, but this has been consistent. Although the other local Viet restaurants do not deliver, will be switching to them from now on.

I had the sate beef pho and it was delicious l, definitely one of the best soups Ive had. Service and cleanliness was great too! Highly recommend!

Love the Vietnamese subs and salad rolls! Vegetarian options: Tofu

Service excellent! Atmosphere very calming. Food wonderful! Will be back for sure.

Fresh dishes and generous portions. Highly recommend this place. I have been a few times now and will continue to eat here.

Great food awesome staff!!! Loved it will deff be back

Best Vientamese restaurant in Cochrane! Big portions, fresh ingredients, great customer service, clean restaurant. My only gripe is that the prices are a smidgen high, but I think that is just a reflection of the cost of food these days.

Small place but it was very clean and welcoming. Staff was awesome. 5 stars for the service. Food was better than a lot of pho places Ive been, but not quite the best Ive had. Definitely worth giving them a shot whether you are new to vietnames food or have loved it for years.

How wonderful! I was introduced through a friend! The food is delicious and there are many new experiences! The shop is very clean and the owner is friendly!

Very good!

Hong Thai is one of my favorite restaurants in Cochrane! The food is delicious, the service is friendly and fast, the atmosphere is relaxing and pleasant. If you want to treat yourself, Hong Thai will take care of you!

Fresh, fast , filling , just what I had expected. Thanks Jamie Food : 5/5

Everything is great! from the super good service, ambience and place to the really yummy food! We had the rice Vermicelli and the Beef noodle soup, we love this place

Great peanut sauce

This is usually one of our family fav but unfortunately over the Canada Day weekend we went in and I ordered something slightly different (Vietnamese ice coffee) and my stomach turned so bad and whole weekend ruined. My family was ok so that meant there was something in the drink that wasn t right.

Exceptional pho! The flavors were spot-on, and the broth was rich and comforting. Service was quick and respectful

I was very excited to try Hong Thai because of its high rating. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed. We ordered the Squid And Green Chili as our appetizer. Then I ordered the Pad Thai with shrimp, and my son had Seafood Saute Soup. The appetizer came after our mean dishes, and it was very disappointing smelling quite fishy and the squid was not fresh at all. The green chili dip tasted off as well. My Pad Thai with shrimp came with shrimp with the tails on and wasnt fresh either. The noodles had been stir-fried in a big lump in what I think was plum sauce or chili plum sauce with big chunks of bell peppers and big chunks of celery, and thats it. The crushed peanuts and lemon wedge were served on the side. There was pretty good pork balls that they put in my sons soup. Otherwise, it was super spicy, with very few pieces of seafood and lacking in flavour. Our server was kind of strange in that he hid behind the counter on his phone, didnt do a quality check, and was generally random in his behavior. I think that there was a language barrier.

I wasnt expecting anything, but when we got there, we were welcome with a slow music that sounds like a music in the massage therapist, natural ambience, calming. It was clean and have a good ventilation system. Since it is summer, some restaurant out there with no ventilation system are so hot and unbearable. But this restaurant has individual air-conditioning vent on top a few tables so that helps with the ventilation system overall. we ordered the spicy beef soup and regular soup. With appetizer shrimp roll. All of them taste so wonderful and the broth were rich. When we finish, we also check out the toilet and it was clean. A lot of lighting and smells fresh. I will recommend this place 10 out of 10.

Had wonton soup and wonton stuffing was white. I asked the server why and she snapped. Don t eat there. They probably make them out of cat meat

Ordered Chicken Pho .not as flavorful as Pho should be.

Best pho broth out of the 3 viet restaurants in town. Ordered the beef noodle soup with rare beef and the beef noodle soup with rare beef, brisket, and tendon. The brisket was very nice. There weren t any Thai Basil or bean sprouts, instead we got parsley and lettuce which was unexpected. Would ve enjoyed bean sprouts and basil more. Service was adequate and food was fast.

One of the best Vietnamese restaurants.

Service was incredible and the food was great! I definitely recommend dining here :) very comfy atmosphere, the server even asked if the music was a good volume. Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free

My husband is quite literally obsessed with the food here. The food is delicious, and the staff are always very friendly!

Literally the worst Vietnamese Ive ever had. The soup was completely void of flavour, the bean sprouts were rotten, instead of fresh basil or cilantro they gave me curly parsley. The filling in the spring rolls was complete mush. The only thing worth eating were the salad rolls with beef. A total waste of $46.00 !!!

Food was fresh flavorful and plentiful. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Really nice food, nice ambience, love it!

This place is amazing. It is usually the same guy when I go in and he has even brought the food out to my car for me. Truly the most delicious Vietnamese food in Cochrane.

Ive been to Hong Thai multiple times. Friendly staff, clean restaurant and very tasty food. Ive mostly had Vietnamese subs, which are delicious! I highly recommend this family owned restaurant.

This is really fresh and fabulous Vietnamese food. The vegetables are all fresh and not frozen. The salad rolls are to die for as is the honey pork belly. The broth is all homemade and it is a very clean place to eat with nice music as well. I would suggest eating in the restaurant! Great service as well

The grilled beef sub is my favorite. Its always fresh and delicious. The bun is crispy on the outside and soft in the middle and the veggies are always fresh. The service and staff are always exceptional. Prices are more than fair as well!

Came in today, although the food was good, and the server was nice, it seemed like he was never around. Felt weird to have to wave him over when we wanted something.

Food was fresh and flavorful. The portions were large, an excellent value. The restaurant was very clean. Loved loved loved our server, she was so helpful and kind. Will absolutely return, it will actually be a destination for us.

This place desperately needs more staff!! Its an extremely long wait for food everytime we come here, so we end up starving by the time the food comes. Ashley the server is so extremely pleasant and fantastic, but everytime I come here she is always racing around trying to serve everyone and do everything herself, there should be at least two servers to take the pressure off of her, and speed up service! The food is great, but dont come here expecting to eat quickly, the entire table doesnt even get the food all at once, so someone always ends up sitting and watching others eat. Ordering ahead over the phone for takeout is probably best. The place just needs more workers.

Best Vietnamese food in Cochrane.

Decent chicken satay sub, goid size lots of veggies. Nicely filling.

Fantastic food and amazing service.

Don t bother going to the restaurant 30 minutes before closing. Kitchen seemed to be ready to shut down and go home. If your open to 8pm you should be ready to serve customers a full menu till that time.

Always delicious and great service. The vietnamese coffee is delish with coffee jelly! The pork and shrimp salad rolls are amazing!

My boyfriend and I went here from our trip to the mountains and I don t know if we were just hungry or what,, but the food tasted really good!! Especially their spicy pho, so delicious! And great service as well! My bf and I are from High river and we will definitely come back some time. Definitely worth it.

Cochrane has a lot of good Vietnamese food but Hong Thai is certainly the best. The flavours are more fresh and vibrant. It is owned and operated by a mother and son. 100% recommend. Parking: Lots of parking, huge lot

I called in with a few questions before ordering online.. Ashley was amazing and so polite! The Pho soup is to die for! So yummy!!!! Definitely will be ordering again.

First time eating here. Generous portions. I had rice vermicelli with chicken. Karl was the host/server. Very friendly & helpful. Lots of people coming in for takeout. I did dine in. Now that I know this place is here, Ill come back.

The pho was good for its purpose as I needed a noodle soup to eat while sick. Unsure if the chefs changes or recipe changed but no longer the half decent pho that I remember. Broth lacked depth and beef flavour that you normally get from slowly cooking beef bones for hours and it was too sweet. The restaurant gave parsley as replacement for Thai basil but it isn t the same. Looks like I ll continue making the journey to Calgary for pho cravings.

We found the food quite bland in comparison to other Vietnamese we have had. The beef in the vermicelli was over done, thick and very chewy, it was not pleasant to eat. Also, dont get the pork sausage (its more like spam). The sub wasnt bad, but the same problem with the beef, they should slice it thinner and not cook it so long so its easier to chew, especially in sandwich format.

Their Vietnamese sub was incredible! Definitely will be back

Just opened today and LOVED IT. All the familiar Vietnamese dishes you re used to, plus some some great lesser known ones. The chicken sub was delicious, the beef short rib with green chilli was an awesome flavour bomb of salty and spicy, and the house vermicelli bowl was the star of the show. They use a more flavourful sauce than the traditional fish sauce only that you find almost anywhere else, and it just elevates the vermicelli dish to the next level. Extremely friendly, fast service. Can t wait to try their pho next! Maybe that will be lunch tomorrow.. all in all, fantastic experience and will be our new haunt in Cochrane for Vietnamese.

We ordered 3 dishes for lunch today - the Hainanese chicken rice, dry clear noodles, and chicken clear noodle soup. All were so delicious! I am Vietnamese and it reminded me of home cooking (and my parents are excellent chefs). Would highly recommend!

The subs were great, great bread great beef just a bit to spicy when I asked for mild but Im not a spicy kinda guy so Mayne I bit of more then I could chew. All and all great vet sub been needing this in Cochrane

Came in today with my mom and ordered 2 subs and spicy soup...so good! Finally a place with the subs! We will be returning on the weekend!

Wonton soup is really good. The buns for the subs are perfect. Just wish there was more vegetables. There was barley any in there. Lots of meat though.

The guy there makes and mix the best Vietnamese coffee there! Recommended!

Fantastic vermicelli , cannot wait to go back and eat there again

We were very hopeful in finding a Vietnamese place here in town that we love however our experience was bland. We ordered 2 vermicelli dishes and there wasn t much for flavour and the noodles were definitely not freshly made. Spring rolls were crispy but we paid an extra $2 per dish for only 1 spring roll to be added which is frustrating. All the reviews raved about this new place so maybe it was just an off day?? Back to the city we go for our Vietnamese :(

Best service, best food, great experience! Highly recommend!

Their banhmi is the best

Last week I decided to check this place out. I was greeted by Vin who gave me a menu right away. I ordered the beef sub. While I waited Vin gave me some free tea which was greatly appreciated because it was very cold out. The beef sub was absolutely out standing! The beef was cooked to perfection and was well seasoned. And I love cilantro! And today I tried their spring rolls which were quite delicious and the beef sate soup was fantastic too. A polite young woman brought some sriracha sauce out for the soup because I like my noodles spicy. The broth had real flavor and the beef had taste. Over all both experiences here were exceptional. Vin is a polite, young man, and is genuinely kind. I wish this place all the best! I will return for some more beef subs. Take-care and thanks for such great service. And I will not forget your kindness! It is always appreciated.

Nice new place, looks very nice inside. I had chicken pho and the broth was amazing. Will return!

First time at Hong Thai and it didnt disappoint. Fresh and delicious. Amazing service.

A great meal. We had Chicken Pad Thai, Grilled Pork Vermicelli and Spring Roll. All excellent! Fantastic service. Huge portions at a very reasonable price. We will most certainly be back!

Great service, great food, friendly and clean establishment. We have only tried the pho BUT it has been consistently amazing each time. Eagerly looking forward to eating here again.

First time trying this place, and wow i m blown away at how great everything was! Food was so tasty, flavourful and the portions were huge. The staff were so friendly. Will certainly be coming back.

Well I found my new Thai place in town. Had a amazing service and lunch today. Thumbs up to the young man in front of house as well as to the kitchen staff

Just had the beef Vietnamese sub. Lots of meat and toppings. Soooo good. And the staff are super friendly and accommodating.

Absolutely delicious. Super fast and friendly service, and much more food than I was expecting for the price!

I ordered shrimp salad rolls and chicken pad Thai yesterday evening. Huge portions and great flavors. I cant justify 5 stars as I dont know what entrees we got, but it certainly was not pad thai. We got noodles with a bed of chicken, celery, green pepper, onion and a little container of soy sauce and peanuts.

Good food. Good price . Friendly staff.

Staff were super friendly from the second I walked in the door, and the food portions are massive! Had their house special vermicelli and grilled chicken salad rolls, the food is delicious and beautifully presented even for take out. Will be back!!!

The service is awesome! The staff are so friendly and the food is great!

James was a very friendly server with a great attitude for service and quality

Great service, good portions and great food!

Great food! Excellent service! Short drive to a riverside picnic.

Glad we found this place in Cochrane! The food is excellent and they offer dishes that typical Pho restaurants dont offer. I highly recommend the beef stew! The staff was also super friendly, will definitely be going back!

Love this place! Clean , friendly and their food is delicious. I have yet to finish a dish so I can always take some home to enjoy later

Awesome service! Ordered beef sate noodle soup with extra noodles. Definitely didnt need to do that because the portions were already big! Good prices as well!

The food and customer service was good.

The subs are so delicious! My husband gets them at least once a week.

Everything was so good. Best vermicelli in town. Won Ton and Veg soup was great! Huge portions. Definitely be back!

Good service, good food.

Excellent service, as always!

I think I may have an addiction to the Beef Sub! :-) They are the BEST! Service is great and quick at Hong Thai - definitely recommend!

An absolute gem, in the heart of Cochrane. Great food, kind people, and the tastiest Vietnamese subs anywhere! This is the pork sub, omg so delicious!

We each got different soups - Chicken Noodle, Chicken Satay, Rare Beef and House Special. We all really enjoyed them. Authentic and tasty. 5 stars.

I love vietnamese food no matter where I get it. But I love the staff here! Always super friendly and the guy at the front who takes my order is always so nice!

Special rewards after conquering Lake Louise World Class Ski Resort. So happy with these authentic Vietnamese pancake. Strongly recommended!

Sent me wrong meal. Called them and they would not do anything about it. All I wanted was the right meal. Wont be back.

Good food and clean environment
