We ordered beef pho, fried vegetable and rice, spring roll, and a dessert. The foods were very tasty. Definitely will visit in the future if we pass by Drummondville again.

I used to go here with my family about 25 years ago and it hasn’t changed. Same owner, friendly service and top quality. Very pleased as always.

As Psy mentioned in his lyrics "Pandemics Over". Please open for dine in. All other restaurants are. We drove 2 hours on our way home to eat pho and there were no other options in the area. Ended up eating Thai Express :(

Pho to go is available of two types (chicken and beef) and one size. Price is reasonable. Take out only. The taste is beautiful. I like the best beef one. I would say they serve one of the best pho in QC. Highly recommended.

Picked this restaurant for lunch while on a road trip. The beef pho was delicious. My kids liked the won ton soup and grilled chicken on vermicelli noodles. This place hasn't changed since the 80s. The service is super slow but the pho soup was good and authentic. The rest of the food was Americanized and blend.

Excellent wonton soup.

October 22, 2024

Atrocious! Terribly slow and disorganized service. None of the restaurant tables received their dishes at the same time. In our case, four at the table, two people had time to finish their dish before we were served. We waited more than an hour for our dishes and there were only around ten customers in the restaurant! Ridiculous portions and poor quality! My grills had to be barely 100g of meat in total! All bathed in a gooey sauce that tasted only of sugar and cornstarch! The decoration of the restaurant has probably not been redone since 1986. The carpet has probably not been changed since that date either! Absolutely avoid.

October 22, 2024

Notice to our friends. We wont go back there.

Quiet restaurant where you can hear each other talk and relax. If you are in a hurry, note that the service is a little slow. Same father-son tandem who have been cooking and serving for 20 years, since we arrived in Drummondville. The decor hasnt changed since then, but the food has always remained very good.

★★★★★
September 22, 2024

Wow! We came on a whim because it was raining and we were tired of getting wet while camping I was blown away! Everything is delicious, the waiter was very friendly, the decor is beautiful. It truly is a hidden gem. Nothing to envy of Asian restaurants in big cities. Its by far the best Vietnamese restaurant Ive tried :) Vegetarian options: Vegetarian section on the menu Dietary restrictions: No peanuts in cooking

August 22, 2024

For 25 years, I have been going to this restaurant regularly for dinner. The owner and his waiter are incredibly kind, as we rarely find anymore. The restaurant is frozen in time as when it opened in the 90s. I have eaten Viet in several countries around the world and, in Drummondville, we are lucky to have the best. Freshly cut vegetables, delicious imperial rolls, soup etc. etc. if you like viet, you will be delighted. quiet restaurant where it is possible to have dinner alone without shouting, in short my favorite restaurant in Drummond.

What a well-kept pearl in Drummondville! Everything is there for a complete Vietnamese experience: the kitsch decor, the excellent attentive service with a smile, and the excellent beef Phõ! The rolls were delicious too. A small vintage bring your own wine restaurant which is a must and which, in my opinion, is one of the best restaurants in Drummondville; no noise, no loud music.

This small family restaurant is a rare gem. What a great discovery made by chance during the pandemic and we return there regularly. The food is always fresh, delicious and according to our requests. The atmosphere of the restaurant is relaxed and family-friendly and you can bring your own wine. You can also order to take away. The owners are so nice! We love this little restaurant!

Restaurant with nostalgic retro decor, joke apart from some comments on this restaurant is that the decor has certainly not changed for several decades, theres nothing wrong with that especially when the food is very good and makes me want to go there return to taste the rest of the menu.

We called to have an order prepared. This was our first time going to this place. The person who ordered the order was very attentive to food intolerances and very pleasant! When we came to pick up the order, the waiter told me another 5 minutes. So I went back to wait in my vehicle. To my surprise, my order was brought outside without me asking for anything. What service!! By the way, the food was amazing! The Pho soup is tasty and made with care and love. We feel appreciated as a customer! If I could I would give 6 stars

5 stars for the beef PHÒ (Tonkinese soup). Ask for extra Cilantro for a solid punch of freshness. Family and very warm service by Lùc. On the other hand, we must have time on our hands. Limited staff required... Enjoy your tasting!

The place only sells takeaway, we ordered noodles with chicken and shrimp which was very rich in flavor but only had 2 SHRIMPS!!, a very delicious fried rice with coconut and curry, a Tao chicken with rice and vegetables, the vegetables were excellent. In general, the food was delicious, but I was disappointed with the shrimp dish, because for some reason they charge more for those dishes, so they put more shrimp, otherwise they dont promote it as a shrimp dish.

Yum nothing to say still so good, the spring roll is worth the price, all the soups are fantastic (homemade broth)!!! and especially the ginger beef, lemongrass beef, sweet and sour chicken, and curry chicken, are WOW full of beautiful flavors, I have never eaten so well anywhere!!! A place to adopt for sure, nothing to do with commercialized cuisine I could eat just that for the rest of my life and I couldnt get tired of it.

Alright!

December 22, 2019

We ordered here for the first time and it was horrible. The vegetable and chicken stir fry was actually noodles (supposedly crispy) that were bathed in water with overcooked steamed vegetables and dry steamed chicken. No sauce, no spice, noodles not at all crispy and very soft, and above all not fried at all, more like boiling (with half the water in the bowl). My boyfriend had the beef with lemongrass, way too spicy. Really disappointed and a real waste of $30.

Very pleasant welcome! The owner, who has always been the same, is incredibly kind. Ok yes, the restaurant has also always been the same...with its typical kitsch decor frozen in time. We might be slightly destabilized by the appearance of the place. But I swear, when we meet the smile of Mr. Saigon for whom this place is his whole life, we understand that his passion for Vietnamese cuisine and the people who pass through his door goes well beyond the old paneling with yellowed varnish that coexists with fake plastic flowers and colorful glossy paper items hanging from the ceiling! In the very subdued light of the evening, hidden behind your little screen, when you close your eyes on your spoonful of Pho (meal soup), you forget all that...and the rest of your life!
