I got stir fried noodles with beef and veggies. It was really really bland, I had to add soy sauce for some flavour. There were barely any veggies in it, it was all bean sprouts and thin dry beef. I was hoping for more flavour but honestly I’m a little disappointed
I accidentally found this place when I was in their neighbourhood and I was pleasantly surprised! I’ve been there a few times and when I’m sick I make a trip there just to have their pho! Cute little place and super clean and the waitresses are super friendly!
I was pleasantly surprised by how good everything was here. The pho broth is very different from the typical broth. It's very rich and has a slight sweetness to it which makes it addicting. I finished the whole bowl which is something I am not typically able to do! Friendly staff and clean restaurant. I will definitely be back!
What a great place! Me and my mother walked in at the spur of the moment and it was both our first time, too. My mother’s first time try(not Vietnamese food. The people were super nice, the food was really delicious and fresh — even the water tasted good! It was definitely filtered and not right out of the tap like most restaurants do. And added bonus was the postcards from Vietnam all over the wall on one side of the room. They were cheery and it gave me the impression that the owners truly love Vietnam. Will definitely go back repeatedly!
What a pleasant surprise! I accidentally stumbled upon this restaurant during a quick lunch, and it turned out to be a fantastic experience. Right away, I noticed the perfect cleanliness and comfortable ambiance. The service staff was exceptionally friendly. I opted for the chicken noodle soup and fresh mango salad with shrimp, which were served promptly. The food was not only fresh but also incredibly delicious. I left thoroughly pleased with my dining experience and would easily rate it 5 stars for its cleanliness, service, and the quality of food. The bill was $33 before tips. Highly recomended for those who value healthy food.
A nice and clean corner to enjoy authentic Pho 🍜. Everything is served decently. Chill music and friendly servers. Special Pho and avocado smoothie are so yum 😋 We will definitely come back again.
This was my first time discovering this spot. The place is quite small and cozy, clean and modern- an Instagram and social media-style food spot. The server was approachable, nice and welcoming. She checked on customers to see if anything was needed. The food was served after 10-15 minutes after ordering. The prices were expensive compared to other pho restaurants located in the North York- Downsview area. The pork rice dish didn’t come with a bowl of soup, which was also difference in other pho restaurants located in GTA. The pork didn’t taste good, there wasn’t sweetness to the flavour of the meat. But every chef is different, rate of this dish 3/5. The classic beef noodles pho was good though, 4/5. As for the vermicelli noodles dish, it wasn’t flavorful and the shrimp had a burnt taste to it. The meat was also quite little compared to other pho restaurants, would rate this dish 3/5. A suggestion, provide the customers with napkins (3-5 sheets) when serving the food. It would be greatly appreciated! Also, the washroom febreze scent is quite overpowering and strong, but the washroom was clean.
I enjoyed the chicken dish and service is good (servers check on you often). Portion and price are decent. It would be awesome if they included complimentary soup with their rice dishes :)
Authentic pho...quick service and delicious
Amazing service
Everything was good
Very nice and delicious.
Amazing food and best service.
Amazing service and delicious food
Was here by chance, small place but nice atmosphere, food was not pretentious yet tasty, if U r looking for a nice meal certainly this place deserves a chance if U havent tried it yet. Service was good and the ladies tending the tables were very pleasing.
The ladies at the restaurant were so kind and understanding ! Not only that but the food was very good and me and my family come back often ! If I could, I would go there every day.
Too bad , there are hair rolls in my food several times
I ordered the wonton egg noodle soup on Uber Eats for lunch today and loved it. So delicious
A tiny store that serves delicious meal. Ambience is great, staffs are nice and food are great. We will be back.
Absolutely love this place! Delicious food, cozy atmosphere, good music, nice and attentive staff. We usually order pho soups, fresh and spring rolls or vermicelli dishes. My husband and I have been there 3 or 4 times and we love coming back.
Staff are accommodating but Overpriced menus with small portions, to be honest other pho places is better in terms of portion and price friendly... and take note their spring rolls taste weird looks like its been just re-fried and serve it again... 2 spring rolls for 7.99... just ordered C01 plus spring rolls and paid 32.98 LoL... Wont recommend
Very good Pho restaurant, clean, fast service and love the spring rolls, so crispy! Beef soup is very tasty and hot! We will definitely come back.
This is my second time eating here and was amazing!! The food is delicious!! The stuff is super attention !! Super clean !! Definitely my go to place Kid-friendliness: Yes !! I came here with my Baby and right the way they offered me a high chair
Very tasty and fresh , service is AMAZING. Highly recommend
Its a nice little joint in a busy plaza. The staff is quick and friendly. The lady serving us had a welcoming smile on her face which was refreshing. The food is good, not too overpowering with good portion size. Will like to try there other dishes when we are in the area.
Their food is decent for the prices. Unfortunate that they stopped selling bahn mi since they were really good..
Disappointed to see a hair rolled into the fresh roll. Good iced coffee though and very nice staff.
Delicious food. Affordable price. Two staffs are enthusiastic. The tall waitress with black hair is really nice and friendly. Would recommend and definitely come back
The Foodie was great! Great staff, atmosphere and the price was right! Also the smoothies were so fresh and amazing!!! Must try!
Amazing experience! Amazing service! Top quality Pho (Rare Beef Pho). Will add photos next time!
Pho Chicken rubbery tast very old
A pleasant experience, healthy and tasty food, excellent attention. Thank you!.
Fast food kind of Pho And strong taste of MSG in soup Disappointed Food : 1/5
The price is more expensive than the Vietnamese restaurants I have been and the quality is not as expected
Good spicy (satay) pho.. Wouldn t say it s in my top 5 for GTA but it d do well when convenient.. maybe top 5 in (or across the street from) York Region.. maybe.. The noodles were great (4.5/5), the broth was up there (4/5) and the rare beef meat was good (3.5/5). Friendly staff, clean (but small) location, it s definitely worth checking out if you haven t already.
Ive had the Pho soup in the past, which was good, but for a change, I ordered the stir-fried chicken with vegetables and egg noodles and it was too bland. I had to add soya sauce and hot sauce just to give it some flavour. I left disappointed - wishing I spent my money elsewhere. I dont think Ill be coming back.
Vegetarian food is amazing! Service is great too, nice quiet cozy environment. Close by to all the good stores too so its great to come to after shopping! Vegetarian options: Vegetable stir fry with noodles and fried tofu
The pork chop with rice was terrible. The meat taste like a left over put in fridge for a few days and put in microwave. Haven t try their pho yet. Maybe I ll take my chance and try their pho. We will see.
Very friendly hosts Clean and bright atmosphere Food
Cozy, clean, and cute. You can tell these people work hard to keep this place neat and tidy. Service was great and the food arrived quickly. Came here with my girlfriend(Vietnamese) and we had an excellent experience. She said the decor made her miss her home country. Overall I would give the place a 4.5. I read a lot of the reviews after my stay here. And Im confused by all the complaints about prices and portions. I ordered 3 entrees: C10-Beef, C14, and C22-Beef. Prices these days are like that almost everywhere. There are burger places selling a single burger for $20. So Im not sure what the fuss is about. Prices everywhere are going up. I compared their menu to 3 places around and theyre all about the same for similar items (within +/- $1-2 of each other, some of them cost more for some items, others cost less) Id eat here again for sure. My advice for possible improvements: - Simplify the menu, a lot of options can leave people guessing. Id focus on making a few dishes really good. - Some of the flavours could be better. But I enjoyed it. C22 the curry spice level was perfect but it could have been thicker. C10 was great. C14 was delicious, the beef cubes were like buttery my gf said :) Portions were good too, not sure what people are talking about in some of the reviews. Kid-friendliness: Cute chalk board art along the left(east) wall.
Great food, VERY generous portions, kind staff, fast service, all for a very reasonable and fair price. Would strongly recommend going here.
Ordered through Ubereats, the food arrived quickly and tasted great. The Banh Mi was really good, I absolutely loved the bread it came in and the fresh veggies really complimented the pork. The wonton soup was also really good as well. I got a small and didnt realize how big it was, I had to save some for later. I will definitely be ordering again and trying out some new things on the menu.
Tasty food but extremely expensive. For that reason I wouldn t buy again. For lunchtime I purchased spring rolls, and two of the special bowls and this cost me over 45 dollars.
I ordered Bun Bo Hue today and unfortunately it was a total disappointment. The broth was extremely sweet. Theses no umami taste. Also didnt taste the lemongrass or any other aromatics in the broth. Speaking as a Vietnamese, this is not how bun bo hue is supposed to taste.
Its like a hidden gem as it isnt as big as other Vietnamese restaurants around Toronto. Unfortunately couldnt dine in due to Covid restrictions but they use reusable bowls for our pho dac biet and Tom Yum pho, separated from the soup base No cash discounts but the service is a lot better than youd expect from a pho place.
Crazy pho.. I almost never ate the packaged food and threw it away. I never go there. Innocent packaged food
I just wanna a cooked meat not Sashimi
Nice staff and very good pho soup. Will definitely go there again
great pho! I loved my fresh rolls. great service and very clean. I will be coming back here!
My first time ordering food here through SkiptheDishes. Pho Foodies presentation was very nice, it looks like they had a fun time organizing my food. Thats how neat it was presented to me when my food arrived. I also like the way the packaged all ingredients separately (broth in 1 container, the veggies in a small baggie & the ingredients for the soup in an actual soup bowl container. I took several photos to show proof but unfortunately, the images didnt turn out since I was so hungry... lmao ~ I see what some other customers are talking about the broth being sweet which is why I gave you 4* As for the fresh rolls.. O-M-G!! IT was delicious! I wish I had ordered more of those, next time! Overall food was delicious.
Food very good. Reminded me of my childhood.
The beef tendons are very chewy and would be better if cooked a little more.
Decent place if in the area, had roasted chicken w/rice(looks fried chicken) good spring rolls, pho soup is ok, good resto but nothing special
Servers are very attentive and courteous. Place is very clean. The pho special hit the spot, broth was hot but a little bit sweet. Next time will order extra meat. Our rice dish was undercooked (chicken) and they replaced with an entire new dish which was really nice. Chicken was definitely better than beef.
Cozy spot with great looking food and friendly staff. Must try the Vietnamese iced coffee!
i love it amazing food and service sooo surprise and yummy
I am not a picky eater, but couldnt eat more than 3 bites. Noodle has very weird and strong smell, the taste of chicken was funny, also fish cake was too dry like rubber. I have had pho more than x100 times, even in Vietnam, but this was the worst. No wonder why we were the only customers in the restaurant.
The worst pad Thai ever
Good too try for nothing...soup is bit sweet...serves less..even the chicken and pork serves less compared to other pho restaurants.
I have been stopping by here a few times a week usually for 4 fresh rolls. The staff know I cant have pork so they substitute it with extra shrimp no problem. Nice service and delicious every time
Restaurant is very clean, staffs are friendly. Everything we ordered was delicious. Beef noodle soup has the authentic aroma that I always look for.
I recently started going back to the office in the area, and spent some time looking for good options for Pho, my favourite food to eat. I drove by Pho Foodie, and finally found this gem of a place that serves GREAT PHO and AWESOME service. Let s start with the Pho: I order a Large Pho Special, that comes with free green tea. The flavour is authentic in every way, and carefully curated ingredients presented with a very cute, colourful spoon and just the right amount of meat, broth, and noodles. You can always tell a good Pho when you can enjoy the broth on its own, without adding any sauces. Highly reccomend! Now the service: Sammy the server was absolutely attentive and incredible. She always makes sure that my favourite table (window side) is clean, and serves up the quickest bowls. Best of all, she checks up on my order and ensure top of the line quality of food. Truly remarkable service with a smile. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking to enjoy amazing, authentic Vietnamese food. You will fall in love! Thank you Pho Foodie and Thank You Sammy! :)
Very tasty pho broth, I had the chicken pho in beef broth and it was delicious. Clean environment and great customer service, will be coming back :)
Havent tasted pho like this in my life. 10/10
I came here today because the place I wanted to go to had just closed. It was totally different cuisine but I didnt feel like driving so I looked for an alternate option and Pho Foodie was literally next door. I checked reviews and they seemed good so I thought I would give it a go. The person at the counter was very nice. The menu is typical for this type of restaurant. I was optimistic. The food was prepared promptly. I took it home and both my wife and I looked at it in wonder. We were wondering what it was going to taste like because the Pad Thai dishes didnt look like others Ive had. Oh there was all the regular ingredients and they looked fresh. I ordered one chicken Pad Thai and one Shrimp Pad Thai. I asked them to mix it all together and then divide it into two containers so my wife and I could just eat out of the contsiners. We didnt want to wash dishes I also ordered one order fried spring roll and one order fresh shrimp roll. So the fried spring roll tasted very salty and was inedible but the fresh roll was ok. Not great but ok. The Pad Thai dishes lacked colour and had zero flavor. Usually theres a bit of a Smokey taste with some depth of flavor because the wok is blazing hot. This didnt have any of that so I added one tablespoon of Sirracha to my container and one and half table spoons sweet Chile sauce to both contains to try and salvage some of the food. That made mine sort of edible but my wife still couldnt eat it. Also, there were 4 to 5 shrimps between the two cartons of Pad Thai. Not large ones. Not in each but total. There was maybe six pieces of chicken between both cartons. Again, not in each but total. Very disappointing. Ive been to other places within one and a half kilometers from here and closer to my home that Ive had very good experiences at. I think Ill just keep going to those other places and chalk this up to a $50 learning experience.
Tasty
a lot of oil in food, and i found a hair!!! I will no longer come to this institution ( Pho Foodie) just disgusting
Food was flavourless. Ordered beef pai tai and had to throw it out. Doesn t taste like restaurant food. Very disappointed
Tasty food. I ordered the steam rice with 2pcs of grilled chicken. Totally love it.
What they have is ok. Their menu is limited. There price is 30 40% higher for no good reason. The size of there dishes are barely average. Meaning smaller than most. But what put me right off, was the portion of meat. There was about 4 paper thin pieces of beef in the dish the server suggested Stir fried rice noodle, Your choice of meats . For which they add $1 more. And another 4 pieces in the dish titled Beef Stew soup . There was so much inedible fat and tendon, that it was pathetic. I understand some people like fat and tendon, but that was not what the picture on the menu was showing. It is obvious this server did not want to be there. She acted miserable and it made the entire time ordering incredibly awkward. The taste of the food was on par with many other Pho Restaurants I ve eaten in, but I wouldn t go back here due to the higher prices, smaller servings and the unhappy help they have working there.
The place is clean, good food, quick, cheery decor, pleasant and attentive staff. Was a little pricey at $44 for a dish, a side dish, bubble tea plus %15 tip. But then what is not these days?
Very good soup.
Clean, freshly renovated, friendly place for soup lovers.
Really good food. And reasonable, very friendly staff.
Absolutely love this place, me and my sister have come here 2 times and each time the pho and spring rolls were amazing! Tasty broth, fast service and VERY clean environment. The staff is also great, I highly recommend!!
It was okay. I moved in this area and is in search of decent pho spot for coming winter. This spot definitely didn t pass for a come back for me. Pho is known to be a hot, tasty and usually the portions are decent. I don t if they have limited noodles in the back but it didn t look like a cook made it. It looked more like a person with no restaurant experience made it. I tried this spot and would no go back. Charge more but serve sumptuous food.
C13 - Beef Ribs on fried rice all day any day. Very nice, clean restaurant with a family friendly ambience. Food is on point! Finally, vietnamese espresso done right (cafe sua). Will come back when im in the area!
The pho was great and the service was friendly
Decent place for pho and other Vietnamese food. I got the dry noodle salad and while everything tasted good, I found it odd the carrots werent pickled, just raw.
Got the house special. It was good, staff were friendly, good location, and the store is cozy. Would recommend and definitely coming back!
The staff are nice. I went here recently and found that the quantity of food is less than other places. The place across the street is better value. Parking: Free Parking
Small and cozy, staff are amazing and nothing beats a hot pho on a cold day :)
Ordered thru Uber Eat, spring rolls buy-1-get-1-free.
Amazing pho
Just a dinner out on a whim and the food was great. Excellent choice.
Overpriced for the portion size.
It wasnt the best pad thai I ever had but it was good. I think it was a bit dry and could have used some more flavour
Great new Pho Restaurant in town. Good authentic Vietnamese foods, great and friendly service from the staff! I tried roasted chicken and grilled pork rice dish, taste is 10/10. Highly recommend you come and try their dishes.
Great customer service. The pho was very good.
Great food, great service. Newly vietnamese restaurant just opening, opposite to Winner shop.Our family tried pho and grilled chicken with rice. Both dishes are good. Definitely will try again.
Nice surprise to find in the strip mall. The food was a very nice and the staff a very attentive. I went for one of the classics. Good thing that I knew what I wanted, because otherwise the menu can be a bit overwhelming. However I am pretty sure that anything you try will be great.
Great cozy place to enjoy authentic Vietnamese foods. We love to have our favorite rice and Pho here with our children. Clean and nice looking little restaurant
Great food, and great staff! Definitely worth a visit!
This is a good Vietnamese restaurant with friendly accommodating staff. A few pho places closed down in the area so this is a most welcome addition to the Rio Can strip mall for my bun bo Hue and com tam cravings. No bun mam or cha ca Ha Noi but the big menu should have enough variety to satisfy most. Always kept clean everytime Ive been but its new so time will tell how itll be maintained. Keep it up!
outstandingly good! great service and super delicious food. portions are huge. staff is very friendly. definitely will come back
I ordered the beef pho and spring rolls. The broth seems too sweet but otherwise portion size and meat was good. However, the spring rolls was a soggy mess. It was not crispy and tasted bland.
Ordered through UberEats. Order came fast and looked great. The only issue was that the pho broth was extremely salty. I like very salty foods, and even to my taste this was too much. Judging by other reviews, it seems this is a rare occurrence and usually not a problem.
OMG So tasty. This is the flavour that I remember from my lunch at my classmates home as a child. I ordered the simple Pho with rice noodles and beef. It is so good. Oh yes, Ill be back soon to try something else.
Had the chance to check out the place on my lunch break yesterday. I got the grilled pork chop and grilled chicken with steamed white rice and fresh veggies which tasted amazing! Meat was flavorful and the rice was well cooked with an addition of fish sauce (which I dont typically use) present. Price was around $16 which is pretty good. Probably I would hope for them to do a no tax when you pay with cash option but definitely Ill be back PHO SURE!
Small restaurant, Friendly service, clean environment, and great selection of food options with reasonable price. Will be back for sure.
One of the best pho Ive tried in North York, their grilled chicken is good as well; tender meat with nice portions. They have bahn mi too, gotta try that next time. Friendly staff
The pork banh mi is delicious. I will be coming back again to try out more of the menu!
Great dining experience must try! Great service, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. If you like pho or beef stew, this is the place. The deep fried chicken wings were also great as well. Haven t tried the other dishes but everything looks delicious as well. Also, don t forget a milkshake to complement your meal! Will definitely come back again soon.
Really enjoyed the large house special pho here. Was recommended the fresh coconut smoothie by the staff which was also really nice. Will definitely be back when in the area.
Fantastic place.
Very very authentic Good very good I enjoy the food is great Go and enjoy trust me
