Food is average at best. Food is very bland and not even sure if they put pate in the banh mi which is liver paste.

Tasty food, Pad Thai and Pho were both incredibly delicious. Food stands apart even from other Vietnamese restaurants I've been to, flavor is subtle and balanced not overly sweet or cloying. Nice aesthetics of the place, the building is right on the water and has a great view.

Went with my wife and parents today. The food is absolutely amazing. Everything is fresh and is the best there is in Owen Sound. It was the best Pad Thai I have ever had. It is all traditional and made properly. Also had the pork vermicelli, vegetable pho, broken down chicken and rice and shrimp tempura. The flavour in all of the dishes was superb. Honestly one of the best restaurants in Owen Sound. Everything has rice noodles and is gluten free and they have tons of veggie options for every section of the menu. The flavour of the pad Thai tofu was delicious. Just go and enjoy the food. It is worth it and has now made the status of a restaurant I will order and dine in frequently. Sitting in the back by the window over looking the bay was the best. The staff are kind and great. Coming back again 100%.

I tried the special Pho. The bowl look small but deep ao it turned out a lot. Also it has a lot of meat. The view to the bay and the boats dock was nice bonus. Over all the food is good, the restaurant is clean and well decorated. The service is friendly.👍Recommended!

A great place to eat in Owen Sound. I love that they have a separate dim sum menu and really enjoyed the selection. I came for a dim sum snack and was back for dinner to try the special, a spicy(not too hot) soup that warmed me on a cold rainy day. Great atmosphere and view. Pot of tea was the perfect combo. Nice people and good service. I will be back!

Had our first dining experience at Minh's this evening. The pork and shrimp spring rolls were amazing, as was my beef pad thai- brought the leftovers home. But my son said his bbq pork with shrimp ball, fried egg and rice was just "meh"- bland and tasteless. A fried tofo thing on the plate was good though, but not worth the price. But we will be back- saw lots of bowls of pho being served, which looked amazing, and will be our next adventure.

Try on a smoky day due to wild fire in northern Ontario so couldn’t see well outside the window or it’ it’d be very nice lake view. The beef pho was exceptionally very good, soup had expected Vietnamese beef soup flavour. The pho noodle was just right. I really liked the beef noodle. The rice paper shrimp rolls were very fresh and yummy, plus the flavourful dip sauce, it really made our day! The chicken fried rice was just regular, no big deal. Wish there’s more flavour or kick. A similar restaurant downtown offers much better fried rice and fried noodle dishes in my opinion. Overall Minh’s Owen Sound offers very scenic lake view while dining, servers are very polite and friendly and the premise itself is for sure a comfortable place to dine in.

Very average vietnamese food that was too pricey for its own good. We were driving back to Toronto from Tobermory and wanted to stop for a bite. In Toronto, I can find a bowl of pho for $13-$15 depending on the size. An average bowl of pho here cost $19-20! Unfortunately, it was quite mediocre though they are veryy generous with the amount of meat in the pho. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue as well but the noodles seemed like they were not cooked enough? Additionally, we got fresh shrimp rolls but the rice paper was quite hard and dry -- I suspect they make these earlier in the day but do not keep them moist. It was not great.

Food was incredible, we ordered chicken pad thai. Ordering was odd, we called and were advised by message to text our order which we did, then we got a text back asking which location, we had used the number for Owen Sound so that was odd. Thank you for a fabulous meal! Food

Friendly staff that work hard to serve delicious food, large portions and nice view at the back. Overall very clean- only problem was that in the women s washroom, there was only a water-like substance in a soap container that simply slipped from your hands and didn t even form bubbles when scrubbed. Aside from that, excellent restaurant. Would come again!

I ordered takeaway of their vermicelli with pork and spring roll, as well as their shrimp and pork fresh rolls. I pre-ordered it through the google maps feature that allows for it, and the food was ready on time. The restaurant seems like a good vibe to sit in, but their takeaway food was mediocre. The food was fresh, but the flavour of the food was mediocre. Ive had better, but Ive had worse. (Ill be trying their eat in option at some point before I give it a full opinion.)

ANYONE WITH AN ALLERGY PLEASE BE CAREFUL. I was really excited that there was a Vietnamese restaurant in Owen Sound area. Ordered item DS 5 (din sum chicken) they served me shrimp which Im allergic to. I spit it out, ran to washroom and rinsed mouth out. Server confirmed I got shrimp and I did order chicken. He did not apologize or anything Im presuming he doesnt understand English. Im not sure why I still gave a tip. My friend who isnt allergic did take the shrimp home that I paid for. Luckily my allergy is not servere, just diarrhea and slight swelling of lips. The rest of my meal I did enjoy vermicelli was good. I dont think I will be returning. Perhaps I should have informed them I have allergy but its mild cross contamination is not a problem, and my friend did order shrimp tempura.

I highly recommend Minhs to anyone travelling through or living in Owen Sound. The space is very bright and fresh. It has big windows and overlooks Georgian Bay. The food selection was perfect, lots of options for the hungry or for lighter appetites. Prices are fair especially considering the large portions. The food will speak for itself. Its authentic, its fresh, its delicious. After one visit it has become my new go to restaurant here. 10/10

This restaurant was recommended to us by a local as we were looking for a vegetarian friendly meal. We were not disappointed, we enjoyed vegan Pad Thai, Pho and Spring Rolls. We will visit again next time we pass through Own Sound Vegetarian options: Good selection of authentic Vegetarian and Vegan appetisers and main dishes. Vegan Pad Thai was delicious!

★★★★★
February 22, 2024

One of the best pad thai I ve eaten, and I ve eaten in university towns like Kingston,Waterloo that also have great options. Reasonably priced and was available for pickup 10 minutes after ordering online. Highly Recommend! Vegetarian options: Vegan Pad Thai

January 22, 2024

I have had pho in the GTA for a long time and their prices are much cheaper and you get more /bigger bowl than here... I personally find them to be a price grab for product..... Like 2.50 for 1 small dumbling? 1 inch by 1inch in size? Ive had Chinese restaurant dumplings and they are big balls for 5 bucks a set of 3....i find this place Pretty greedy , deffinetly not like your typical Viet restaurant /pho spot. There are better places. Anyways not worth your time Imo

I go to the Collingwood location all the time, so when I saw the Minhs sign in Owen Sound I couldnt wait for it to open! I finally got to go enjoy it for the first time today and Im overjoyed! The food is obviously amazing, just like their Collingwood location. And theyve done a great job renovating the restaurant. It is so bright and open and beautiful, and the view over the lake is the best restaurant view in Owen Sound! Great job Minhs! So happy to have you in town!

Our family of five had an amazing time at Minhs Modern Vietnamese Cuisine. Our first impression was of a tastefully decorated and clean environment. After we took some time to read over the menu, Minh, the owner, introduced himself to us. He was charming and provided excellent service, going above and beyond for his customers. One of us recieved the wrong order (through no fault of the servers, they were wonderful) and Minh quickly offered to pay for the mistaken dish. Speaking of dishes, the food was simply divine. They came in large servings with prices between $10-$22 and were hearty, flavourful, and nothing short of delicious. If you are looking for a high quality meal for a reasonable price, make sure you stop by Minhs!

★★★★★
December 22, 2023

We just had our first dining experience in Minhs in Owen Sound and I dont usually give reviews but it was an awesome experience for the whole family, with no less than the very friendly and energetic owner/chef MINH himself warmly welcoming and serving us, along with his courteous and ever helpful staffs. We didnt expect the big big servings of pho and pad thai (we had lots of take outs after!) and were amazed with how everything suited our tastes: C1, PT4, P1, P5, B2, loved their steamed shrimp and buns too. Best authentic and reasonably-priced Vietnamese food in Owen Sound indeed, with a lovely view of Georgian Bay at that! Were definitely coming back .

Had a fantastic experience here last night with my family. We came in an hour before closing but the owner(Minh) was very accommodating and friendly. There was a minor misunderstanding with the food we ordered but he was very quick to solve it. 10/10 recommend the food here. Mom had the pad thai, Dad and sister the Pho and other sister the broken rice and I ordered the vermicelli. Food came in big portions so we definitely could have shared too but having left overs for the next day is great too.

The Owen Sound restaurant is essentially the old Chinese food restaurant with new turquoise paint with an air conditioning unit that has to be 50 years old and doesnt work very well. Be prepared to sweat while you eat. Dishes came out with no serving utensils, knives or proper sized dinner plates. The food is delicious, but definitely overpriced.

I liked their pho but I do not recommend their dim sum. While their dim sum is made from scratch which is very nice, the shrimp dumplings have super sticky skin and falls apart when you pick it up. The ratio of the starch needs to be better for restaurant quality dim sum.
