What a great place! Not only is there pho, but there are stir-fry and noodle dishes. Every time I eat there I am pleasantly surprised by the fresh ingredients, the variety of vegetables in the dishes and the great flavour. Do yourself a favour and dine here after a hectic shopping trip at Costco!

I ordered the chicken fried rice, spring roll and some soup. The chicken fried rice could easily feed 2 adults! Or 1 person for 2 meals. Incredible flavor! The soup is delicious, light and refreshing chicken broth with some greens. Spring roll was extremely crispy and delicious as well. Would come back! Staff was warm and friendly. Restaurant was clean and bright! Ps. I am vietnamese and am very picky with vietnamese food!

Highly recommend their Com ga nuong! Ingredients are all fresh and tasty. Comes with a side of chicken soup which was tasty as well. Good service. Location is easy to get to and it was easy to find parking in the complex when I went. Not sure if it'll be different during busier times.

Been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got to it. All these 1-3 star reviewers shouldn’t review food because they’re clearly missing taste buds. The food was very comforting. The portions were very filling as well. The service was excellent also and fast. I definitely will be coming here again!!

In a small area within a small block, there used to be 3 Pho places. Now, there’re two left. And this is one of the two. Would have thought the food could be one of the reasons. But I found the soup base of the pho was plain , not beefy rich. The beef as you can see in the picture was also plain rough. Not beefy. The service was very courteous though. The place was also clean and pleasant.

Came to this newly opened place. It’s been open for a week and was excited to try it out. Overall the portions are large and reasonably priced. They are generous with the meat. Flavour of the Pho was good. Minor detail the noodles for the pho was not the authentic flat type but the main thing the flavour was there. The vermicelli bowl was very good. All the meat hardly had any fat on them. So great for the health conscious people like us. The spring rolls was also good too. Some recommendations to the owners, change the layout of the menu please add some pictures as some people like to see what they are ordering. We knew what the items are however not everyone are like us. Also have some items for kids please. Some kid size portions of the main menu items would be great. Other than that I hope your business will thrive as everything we tasted was great and not overly salted. The fish sauce was abit in the sweet side but I guess you are catering for the majority of taste buds. I would aim for more flavouring towards the authenticity side for the fish sauce which is generally more saltier.

Just about average for me. Clean interior but steep price (Large pho $18.99) for average tasting pho (With GST + Tips, it was near $23). I felt the amounts of meats were lacking and beefs were long chunk slices which I didnt quite like.

I came to pick up an order here today and the parking lot was full as Crumbl cookies opened a location just a few businesses over. While dealing with the food pick up, I noticed how the business owner stormed out to go and screamed at a person who had parked in front of their business. I truly just find this so rude as they have no ownership of the parking lot that is shared with other businesses. Not coming back. Food was average.

Update: we come here once or twice a week since We were wandering around the area, and found this Pho, we came here once a long time ago we didnt like it much, but we thought we would try it again, We found it is a new ownership now. Its a very clean restaurant, very friendly service, food was tasty to me, I will be back to try it again. Now we are regular customer, visit once a week.

This place truly has an identity crisis, open inspecting the decor it had Vietnamese art work which looked beautiful. But I noticed the menu had not just Vietnamese but also Thai and Chinese dishes. Super confusing for a pho restaurant and very surprising. Now for the main part, the soup was sub par and very sugary as much so that I thought someone may have made a mistake and dumped in a pound of sugar but that s apparently how they make it. In conclusion I wouldn t recommend this place if your looking for authentic Vietnamese last place that was here was 10 out of 10 and will surely be missed by the community. Won t be coming back unfortunately. But I will say customer service is a solid 7.

Bum Bo Hue fans, please give this place a try. Their portions are generous, they actually put Rau Ram (Vietnamese Coriander) as a topping and the soup is very flavourful. Perfect bowl of soup and noodles for a cold day The owners are also very kind and attentive.

Great customer service, good food, nice atmosphere, washrooms are clean. As soon as you walk in, the owners will greet you with a smiling face and wave goodbye from the kitchen. When they first open, there was no lemon grass chicken on the menu, I mentioned to the son, he asked his mom to add it on. I like the family atmosphere, the parents worked 7 days a week, the sons will be there helping out and also take the parents home after work.

Great flavour and value. I am from out of town but have eaten here three times while visiting (once for take out). I have ordered two different Pho soups, crispy rolls and most recently Pad Thai. The portions are generous and everything has been very tasty. Give them a try. I think you will be impressed.

Best Vietnamese food in Tricities hands down. I support this family owned restaurant. The soups are seriously flavorful and hearty without being salty. Try their Bun Bo Hue (Spicy beef soup). Their portions are plentyful. Great value for the price you pay which is kind of hard to find nowadays due to inflation everywhere. Ive also tried their vermicelli and rice dishes. 5/5 Try this restaurant if youre looking for tasty, authentic vietnamese food. You will not regret it.

This couple that owns this has exceptional service to cater to each individuals needs. They both, as husband and wife individually have lovely energy they bring to their customers.

Was happy to finally try this Pho location since our beloved Pho Toan Thang closed here at this same location a couple of years ago. The food here at Pho Bo Ga Ottawa was excellent. The Pho soups we had were very flavorful with their broth. The meat provided in the soup was of high quality and plentiful. Even the traditional sprouts and basil leaves were fresh. The fried rolls were excellent and had good flavor. Portion sizes of everything was truly excellent. Probably the best of any Pho restaurant Ive been to in memory. Service was very friendly though there was a bit of a language barrier with communicating with the gentleman serving us. Restaurant and washrooms were clean and well maintained. The biggest criticism I would have is that the Sriracha hot sauce was not actually the Rooster Brand (Huy Fong) that the bottles were, on the tables. It appears they replaced the hot sauce in there with some inferior very watery (much less flavor) type of Chinese restaurant style hot sauce. When mixed with the Housin sauce it did not result in great flavor at all. For the love of flavor guys! If you are a real Vietnamese Pho restaurant (with all other flavors on point) use the Huy Fong brand hot sauce in your restuarant! I might consider bringing my own from home next time to dip the occaisonal meat item in. :) I would definitely come back here and would recommend Pho Bo Ga Ottawa to others. Though not for their hot sauce! Parking: Parking lot can get busy at times.

I found the flavors to be a bit meh.. The pho broth was so-so but tasted a bit strange. Its spiced enough but maybe not as balanced as what I like. The beef was ok. At least the broth had a lot of flavor. The lemongrass chicken had a lot of lemongrass flavor, but I wouldnt go out of my way for it. Spring rolls tasted fine but were dry inside. The fish sauce was too sweet for me

Generous portions of meat and noodles for the regular size. Broth isnt as rich and flavourful as I am accustomed to. There are many different types of bowls of pho offering different meat combos, but there is no house special or Dac Biet. None of the dishes have tendon or tripe. There are rice dishes and vermicelli dishes but the meats all just say grilled. Is there lemongrass chicken? Ill have to visit again one day. This restaurant also serves Thai dishes but we did not have any of those.

Really happy to see another Vietnamese restaurant opened around the neighbourhood. The portion of meats and quality of the soup are pretty good; a little bit on the salty rich flavour side.

Newly opened Vietnamese restaurant in the strip mall opposite Costco gas station. I ordered the grilled chicken with rice. It came with salad and soup. The portion is generous. The chicken is moist and flavorful with lemongrass bits and green onions on top. This is a winner. The soup that it came with was piping hot but was heavy on the msg. I also got an order of spring roll and it came with 2 pieces. They were hot and crispy. Filling was a tad salty for me but very good flavor. They have hoisin sauce and siracha on the table but I wish they have the chili oil. Nice to see a family business open and want to support them. Hope they dont go overboard with the msg though. Service was okay. Parking here is a bit tough. There are lots of shops but not enough parking space.

I m really sorry but this place was horrible and rock bottom for me. There s no way the restaurant is going to last. 1 menu between 2 people, I had to take my own order!! That s right, I had to write down my requests on a waiter order chit, the lady came along and took it without saying anything really, our food came and they ignored us for the 20 mins. I had to get up to ask for napkins and a glass of water, then get up and go pay when done. The food was horrible, my wrapping around my spring rolls were practically mushy, undercooked, the chicken and pork in my Pho was so over cooked it was practically crunchy and the bill for 2 soups and 2 orders of Spring rolls was $50. You couldn t pay me to go back it was that bad.
