#1680, 9600 93 Ave, Fort St John, BC V1J 5Z2, Canada
Haven't been there in awhile, but last time I had the service, the owner and their family were extremely friendly and it made experience that much better. If you want authentic flavor, highly recommend.
Food is decent enough to go back, probably only order takeout in the future as the service is a real treat! Never seen someone in customer service with such a bad attitude and purposely refuse to make a dine-in experience better. Not friendly, very dirty restaurant and bathroom, but decent food....so take your pick!!
Very hospitable staff, with a truly authentic pho broth, tender beef, and overall a noodle soup that impressed us! The spring rolls and beef noodle soup that we ordered are seriously on-point! Try it out sometime!
The only good thing here would be the fried rice. Their pho is always a miss, sadly, and the bubble tea is never cold as it should be.
Came back after a hiatus to give it another go… $88 for 2 adults and 2 small children to eat lunch, very expensive. Pad Thai noodles had hints of burnt frying pan and a little shy on the shrimp as well. Front counter lady (wearing a covid mask, which I hate) seemed grumpy. She brought our food over and slammed it down on the table and stomped off without a word (yes, I had tipped her) CBC Propaganda was blaring from the TV in the corner.. I did take it upon myself to turn it off so our dinning experience would be at least bearable. Over all it was OK.. but don’t expect to be wowed.
The food is OK. I have had much better Pho Bo before, but it is edible. The pork dumplings are edible as well. You will be fed, but it will not be the meal of your life. The one star ratings I feel are a bit harsh
I wish I had read the reviews before... the food is disgusting... not flavour at all... we tried out pho.. and left the whole thing... also I got a bubble tea and I got water with colors it was disgusting!!! don't go to that place..
Ordered vegetarian pad thai, literally no vegetables in the whole thing. Also old scrambled eggs at the bottom? (They were cold and the noodles werent') I'm and vegan most days but vegetarian always so this was just horrible. Never going again.
Great food. GREAT SERVICE
Pho is garbage, service is even worse
Gross
Decent pho.
One of my favorite places in FSJ. Staff are always very friendly & the food is great :D
Such amazing food and always helpful staff. Love the salad rolls and vermicelli curry
Had pho a few times during work trips. Visually resembles pho, but barely tastes like it. Not worth the money. Unfortunately not many choices in FSJ. Food
To much spice
Food was good and different from what you normally can get in town. Service can be better
Worst bubble tea Ive ever had. Want luke warm milk tea with soggy bubbles for $15? Go here.
Im just out here working in area. My ex husband is Vietnamese. Im also an ex fine dining chef. This is absolutely thee worst Vietnamese food ,Ive ever eaten...... Im quite and spoke a few vietwords to her upon complaining. She was very surprised and embarrassed. I do not recommend this place at all....
I had my favourite of shrimp salad rolls. They are always so delicious Also Pad Tai (?) with chicken & shrimp!! Yummy. Parking: Totem Mall
Very curt front lady, pad Thai was mostly oily noodles, no vegetables. Bubble tea is power and water. I was underwhelmed.
I regret buying the bubble tea, it was just a chocolate powder and water! taro is just water and taro powder. cant believe I spend money for this unsatisfying drink
Ive tried two of their soups this week. Flavourful stocks, generous protein portions, great service and friendly owner. Food
Chicken pad Thai, 4 out of 4 times was great. Wasn t a fan of the people wearing masks, however if it is another layer of ensuring your spit isn t in the food, then great! Really no complaints on the chicken pad thai! I will be back!
Just ordered Pad Thai and spring rolls for the first time in 2 yrs after the last time the Beef noodle soup literally made me sick for 2 days, I took another chance today and was terribly disappointed, Pad Thai was off, dry and had a funky taste and smell, quite horrible really, couldnt finish it, I should have taken it back and complained but was a long day and was tired, certainly wont be back. Should have went with my first instinct and went to Mama Pandas never been disappointed, they have excellent food .
Excellent food! I had the beef noodle soup. Absolutely delicious. I will repeat
The food is good and the staff are friendly! Too hungry, no photo lol
Food taste good but staffs was so bad we said we dont want to add coriander but they ignored and i wasnt enjoying food beacuse of coriander
Food is very good service very good as well Still very good
Well, the owner considered her restaurant authentic. Not like all the rest in the lowet mainland. Dear, Im sorry, but your broath tasted like rare beef water. Very small addition of herbs or spices as well. No side bean spouts and herbs, no chilli oil, no flavor. And i do not believe what you said that all others use MSG. No one uses that that ive herd. Also your prices are grossly inflated gor the portion you serve. NEXT!
Pho is on the lower tier end of any pho I ve tried. The Caucasian lady working at the front has horrible service not friendly at all. The Asian lady (owner I assume) has much better service. FYI, no basil no bean sprout no lime and sriracha is in packets
Always gets my order wrong and never corrects it
they always mess up my orders. never gonna order there again.
Very expensive dry ribs are 98 percent bone noodles had negative flavor needed to drowned with sauce to be eaten do not recommend
Always great service. Fast and friendly. Food is always hot!
Tastless, terrible value. Will not return.
Terrible portions for wayyyy to much money no fresh sprouts or basil no tripe tendon etc etc sub par at best...customer service terrible that old lady is brutal find a new job possibly do not recommend at all
Great food and friendly service.
The pad thai was absolutely amazing and the service was great! Highly recommend!
Great food and friendly service
Expensive and worst pho Ive ever had. Meat balls in it and it does not taste like meat. Gross
Love the number 1 and number 19 delish
Very delicious, like to eat there
Must try the food is very good
Good food, busy place
i love this place. its the best in fort st john. beef stew is so good on a cold night. really nice owners. the inly reason i dont give 5 stars is because im from vancouver and i have really high pho noodle soup standards. 4 stars is still good tho!
Never had an issue while dining here.
The saddest chicken pad Thai I ever had. The noodles were soggy and there s no seasoning at all.
Too expensive for small portion. Pho A Pho is better
Decent
Just like Hoi Ann. 5*
Great
Best Soups in town
Nice little place. Really good vermicelli noodles, kind of a small portion. Bubble tea was ok.
Generic and not memorable.
Very good
Excellent noodle bowls!
Love eating there
Pretty good stuff
i tried there bubble tea, i would say its average. I had higher hopes from the drink.
Great food
This place is the bees knees. The food is consistently top notch. Fort St. John is blessed to have pho like this. Salad wraps are a must. One feels welcome as soon as you arrive, whether the owner or staff are running the front. Try the chicken or beef pho, make it a large, get some of that chilli sauce up in there and prepare to feel like your best self for the rest of the day.
My number one favourite spot
Noice
They need to lower the prices for 1. Chicken is always dry in the Pho for 2.
It was recommended by locals but my experience was so so.
Great place for a bowl of Pho.
Decent food, served quickly at a decent price. Came in and had the #10 soup with beef. Decent sized serving with probably the most tender peices (not slices, cut like stew beef) of beef I have ever had in a soup. Just the right amount of cilantro. Eavesdropped on the other tables and heard all positive comments from them as well. Soup was $15
Saigon Noodles fried rice is delicious, everything else is so so.
The pho was the worst I ve had and I ve eaten pho many times in several countries. Bland with small portions of beef an no side plate of chilli, lemon , bean sprouts and coriander and to think it was the most expensive I ve eaten. Very disappointing. Plus the staff was rude. WOW!!!!
Had heard mixed reviews but the food was great. Place is clean. Decent counter service . Good flavours. Will be back for sure.
Food here is always so good, with a nice variety as well. Nice music and movies on the TVs. Lots of trinkets and decorations to look at. Prices are fair and portions are decent.
Tasty but a little pricey for the product
consistently good food
Worst restaurant experience! Just ask the lady at the counter for napkins to wipe the wet table. She replied WE DONT JUST GIVE NAPKINS TO WIPE THE TABLE, NAPKINS ARE EXPENSIVE! Well not just napkins are expensive here, so with their food thats not worth for the price!
Disgusting! The vermicelli Topping are just premixed salad, summer rolls hardly have any shrimp and are 99% salad, service is mediocre. Good dumpling though.
$17 for a small bowl of chicken and vegetable noodle soup. Asked for no noodles. Charged me $4 extra for vegetables. I didn t ask for extra. The bowl of soup had 2 small pieces of broccoli and 2 small of pieces of cauliflower. It already comes with vegetables so I guess I paid $4 for 1 of each. Asked server if this was correct. She was rude and said yes. Perhaps if she shared with the kitchen how much she charged me they may have added a decent amount of Vegetables. Not impressed.
Good Pho and dry ribs. This is my 2nd visit in 2 weeks. I am always looking for a good bowl of pho.
I love the foods its so tasty and delicious
Decent food decent prices good service
I didn t want to leave a review because the service was really amazing and the employees were very kind. But I have to let people know that this is the absolute least authentic pho I have ever had in my life. Maybe it s because I ve lived in Calgary and Vancouver and toronto, and eaten pho in various places in Asia. But this is just bad. From the noodles, to the bland flavour, to the awful beef slices that taste like roast beef from save on foods. All around awful. Maybe it s good to the people of Fort st John who haven t experienced real pho, but to any pho lover, this is no good. Spring rolls were awful as well. I ordered the meat ones and I swear it was only veggies. AND THE BUBBLE TEA?! Since when is bubble tea pure liquid with a couple of ice cubes. I couldn t even believe it. 2 stars are given for the lovely staff, they were all awesome. Don t expect much from this place. I think I might ONLY eat here again if I m dying of a hangover and need to flush it out lol.
Excellent food. My friend and I dine there once a week.
Good portion sizes for the price. I eat here once a week never seems to disappoint. As much tea as you can drink!
Mostly friendly staff, food is always very good, but they keep running out of bubbles for bubble tea and salad rolls.
Amazing and authentic Vietnamese food. Great for take out or dining in. Definitely the best pad thai in town.
Came here for the pho, which was underwhelming. But the chicken Pad Thai was very flavourful. Would eat again. Just stay away from the Pho.
Food is always fresh and hot
The food didnt really taste like anything. Also there was a tomato slice in a vermicelli bowl and I dont hey down like that. Who puts a tomato in vermicelli? This mouth movie makes my eyes rain.
I had the #5 lemon grass pork. Im not sure if the portion sizes are different if you dine in but my Togo order was very small and the spring rolls where very small as well. Ok flavor but I definitely had better I will try them again and maybe take the advise from others on here and do the Pad Thai.
i go there every day, just for the bubble tea. its the only thing I enjoy in lfe
I love the Pad Thai. I always eat there.
Great pad Thai
I come to fort st john at least 4-6xs a year. And since I found this place I wont eat anywhere else.
so tasty. Great to have this variety in FSJ
Both the most expensive and worst pho I have ever eaten. Employee told me they had WiFi, went to get the password for me, then was rebuffed by the apparent owner/manager.
Food ok, not great. Service non-existent.
