Thap Ba Restaurant Vietnamese in Red Deer

Dont go here

Great pho

Food was amazing and the prices were reasonable!! Ill definitely be going back!! Atmosphere was cute cozy. Food

Pretty good food. And so much. Ive got enough for lunch and still left quite a bit on my plate. I ordered a side of spring rolls. They were high.

Im writing this as I eat their special vermicelli. Ive been ordering from here for years, and as a self-proclaimed food connoisseur, I say with confidence this is the best Vietnamese food in Red Deer. Do yourself a favor and try it!

The food is GREAT!!!

This was a new experience for me and it was delicious! The service was quick, friendly and efficient. The serving size was generous and full of flavour. Strongly recommended.

Great food and very affordable prices

Really good food and their prices are pretty good. I highly recommend you try this place.

I stopped in for take out was quick, food was delicious and the price was comparable service at the counter was polite

Bathroom was very gross. Hair on the toilet seat. Toilet paper flew off the holder as you grabbed some bounced on floor rolled away. Walls were very dirty. Floors had toilet paper all over and the sink was dirty with grime! Food wasnt what I expected.

Fantastic Vietnamese cuisine! I absolutely love the Hue style Pho, nice bit of heat, gorgeous silky broth! I get extra meat and tendon with thin noodles, and its so fantastic! Beef Satay Sub is also excellent. Nice crisp bun thats got a nice bite and chewyness. Its such a perfect blend of flavors Cant go wrong with the salad rolls or the spring rolls! Both very good. Always nice and fresh ingredients Run by supper nice people. Excellent service every time and open Sundays Love this place and Its people!!

The staff is always so nice, quick service and the food is always amazing

Best Vietnamese food in Red Deer. The Pho is spot on every time!!!

The food is really good

This place is always good. A lot of food for a good price. Always delicious and I like that they put in all the sauces unlike other place that only put in the fish sauce. Definitely recommend.

Amazing food!! The pho was awesome, very reasonable prices!!

Great sizes and prices. And nice and cool inside, to get away from the summer heat.

Amazing service, amazing food and the place is beautiful and its cozy, all the staff are kind and it s very clean..personally I love when restaurants add their culture and this was just amazing! Vegetarian options: There s vegetarian options as well I have a certain order so I m never looking for too many vegetarian options Dietary restrictions: There s dishes with dietary restrictions but there s also multiple that are fine for everyone Parking: The parking lot isn t ever very busy so there s plenty of space Kid-friendliness: High chairs for baby s and the tables are low enough to reach Wheelchair accessibility: Wide spaces in between the table rows

Go there if you want to waste your money.

Got my take out order wrong and the food wasnt good. Mushy shrimp and overall flavorless.

One of the staff is very rude. Order taking is rushed and when mistakes were made on her end, she s very disrespectful towards us.

Food is amazing. Best beef PHO in Red Deer for sure, super flavorful!! Spring rolls are good and chicken Salad rolls are delicious, the chicken was not dry and they are double the size of anywhere else!!

Oh man what a TREAT! We are new to the area and have been trying to find little unique restaurants and stumbled upon Thap Ba last night. I had beef noodle Pho and My husband had chicken stir fry. We started by splitting an order of Vietmanese Pork Spring rolls. I had a jasmine tea, he had green. Over all the food was fantastic. The flavours were great, portions were large and everything was served very hot and fresh. The pricing was shocking. I dont know how they stay in business and keep their prices so low. The service was lovely with very little attention given to us after the food was served, allowing us to just enjoy our meal in peace. 10/10. Would absolutely, 100% recommend over any chain restaurant. Dietary restrictions: They were accommodating to a seafood allergy. We ordered things that dont have seafood in them, and asked to just not have dips brought that may have seafood ingredients. Parking: We parked right out front of the restaurant. Wheelchair accessibility: There are no stairs.

Deliciously good food ! Kind, genuine service. Restaurant is clean. The spring rolls are to die for.

Went in with three of my buddies. I ordered the iced coffee and pork vermicelli with spring rolls. The food was hot, fresh, and tasty! The coffee was delicious! The vibe in here wasnt the best: flourescent lights, no music playing (kind of felt like a quiet waiting room at my dentist). But it was clean, the food was great, and the service was very friendly! Keep up the great work! I will definitely be back when Im rolling through Red Deer.

Been craving pho for quite some time after moving to red deer. Decided to try Thap Ba because it was close and there was quite a bad snow storm. We chose the right place! When we arrived to pick up the place was absolutely packed! However service was fast and so friendly! Left with a smile on my face. Ordered an xl spicy chicken noodle pho to share with my boyfriend! It was so unbelievably delicious. Exactly what i was craving. The xl is more than enough for 2 people! we still have some left overs! If i could give this place 10 stars i would!

Very delicious Pho and Banh Mi. Absolutely loved the broth and the teriyaki pork. Interior is typical vietnamese restaraunt, clean but nothing too fancy. Will definitely be back!

Wonderful food, quick & friendly service. This was a real treat, thank you!

Super impressed! Good portion sizes. Good amount of protein. Food tastes authentic.

Only ever got take out and only ever get the beef sauté bahn mi but it is so good and definitely worth the price

Good value and portion size

Delicious food. Fantastic service.

Had a great lunch. Very reasonable price.

Parking: Pas de difficulté pour stationed Food

Didnt get the hoisin sauce

The staff are very friendly and courteous. The food is always Amazing!!

Havent been in ages and recent reviews had implied quality has gone down over the years. Happy to say it has not! Just as good as I remember. Sadly prices have gone up (as they have everywhere), but portion size and quality remains the same. Had beef pho and salad rolls and left extremely satisfied. Was loud and crowded, but thats my own fault for going during peak hours. Staff were friendly and service was as prompt as could be expected with a full dining room. Absolutely will be back!

Good food, quick service and reasonable prices

Best pho in town

A must go Vietnamese food!

Great portions, delicious food, and pleasant staff. We will be going back soon.

I like the feel of the atmosphere. The people who work there seem nice and genuine. The food tasted very fresh, and all aspects of the meal were great (including price). If your tired of going out to the same place every weekend, check this place out. (Must be willing to try new flavours). Peace and Love

Pretty good place, had the beef pho was very good very good portion for the price. Was a reasonable wait time, probably like 5-10 mins.

Absolutely the best pho I have ever had. Huge portion sizes and such good value for the price. Lots of condiments so you can customize your soup too! Also had a bahn mi that was delicious. So well seasoned and nice soft bread.

Best Vietnamese food in the city by far!!!

Favorite viet food we drive from Calgary just to come here! Amazing staff and food definitely recommend.

Great pho, fast service, friendly staff, and good prices. What more could you ask for

Always consistent with their food. The food is great, and the prices are even better. It is a nice healthy option.

The noodle soup smelled like animals.

The Bun Bo Hue is the best Ive had anywhere ! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free. Food : 5/5 |

Love Thap Ba. Never unhappy when we go there.

Stopped in Red Deer for a quick bite on the way from Siffleur Falls to Edmonton and found this gem. Food was good and the services are extraordinary. I work in hospitality industry as well so I highly appreciated the services they did.

On our way to Edmonton, we stop at this to eat something. The owner was very nice and friendly. The food was also very good.

sorry no photos - but wow - excellent food and staff was fantastic we had a great lunch

Best Vietnamese food in Red Deer in my opinion.

Good place to eat but always freaking closed!

Wonderful experience on every vist! Not gonna lie, would love some Thai basil with my pho, but Ill survive. I usually grab a mung bean / tapioca / coconut dessert thing they have at the till.

Delicious Vietnamese Subs!

Excellent good and services. Probably my favourite restaurant in Red Deer

Not an expert on vietnamese food, but like the taste of the subs, bowls and soups

I go here often -- incredible Banh Mis and some of the best soup in Red Deer. The prices are great. I mostly pick the food up and take it home but it never disappoints.

Best place in town to enjoy Vietnamese food.

The food was amazing! My XL # 14 pho was so good. The broth, the meat, the balls. Everything was on point.. I ate the whole thing ! My wife s vermicelli bowl was very good to, meat veggies noodles were all fresh and tasted great. My son had the wor won ton soup and he said it was UNreal! Ladies working were kind and very attentive. Oh and we got the salad rolls to go. Also a 10/10. See you soon! Parking: There s a decent amount of parking available. There are other businesses there also.

Good food and prices.

Very tasty. Had #15. Was a shrimp pho. Added Chilli oil and was great. Also had special salad rolls, amazing.

Always good food, friendly staff and reasonable prices.

We try this place last week and it is a very nice place to eat. The best thing was the spicy sauce. It was a little sweet and very spicy. It looked like home made. The rice noodles are very good, fresh, and tasty. The staff worka very fast and they are polite. Totally recomended. Thank you.

Tons of chicken and noodles with a very tasty broth.

Great food always fresh ingredients

By far the best Pho in Red Deer without comparison! The staff are always friendly. The service is prompt and the food is delivered quickly. Always look forward to coming back!

Food went downhill. I ordered vermicelli with grilled chicken, but the chicken was far from grilled it was boiled, and it had an unpleasant, old chicken taste. I couldnt finish it. Our family has been regular customers here. And we understand its a family-run business with just 1-2 ladies serving customers. However, the lady who served us today was exceptionally unfriendly. We dont demand professionalism, but her rudeness was too much. I felt like she was selectively rude to us for no reasons. I dont want to invest my time and money in such a negative experience, so I wont be returning to Thap Ba.

Food was ok but the service was so slow. They prioritize pick up orders than people dining in. I saw a couple that was not given a menu and nobody bothered to go to their table. They just grabbed take out menus and still nobody came to them so they just left. Horrible customer service. Fix your service.

The soup was weak watered down compared to other Pho locations. If you want Better go to Vietnamese Sub downtown the best in Red Deer

I absolutely love this service at this establishment, I love the food, it blows my mind every time.

Great service every time. The best noodle bowls in Red Deer. I get the #27 spring roll noodle bowl. The spring rolls are best in the city. Definitely a pork spring roll.

The chicken noodle bowl was amazing. I had them add veggies, and some chili oil sauce. It was a fantastic Sunday meal for a cool day. Great atmosphere, and the food was excellent.

Wow!! Such a simple broth yet delicious with plenty of noodles!!! We love their portion sizes here, actually a real mans meal. Great dining experience as always with super kind staff! Keep it up

2023: Service has improved - although the ladies still dont smile, etc but not as bad. Food is fairly good and I dont think they use too much MSG anymore. 2020: The food is okay to good (and fairly cheap) and the male server does a good job but the ladies there are pretty curt. Asked for a napkin and she would stare at you like you had just asked for a baby goat to be butchered and gutted.

Had the wonton and egg noodle pho to go and shrimp salad rolls. The pho broth and noodles etc were all put into one container. When I got home it was one big pile of mush- flavour just wasnt there. Not the best broth(the 3 tablespoons of broth that I recieved). Shrimp salad rolls were so tight and full of lettuce-like way too much lettuce. The peanut sauce was way too sweet. Ended up throwing the whole meal away. Wont be back. Dont recommend. Maybe better if you eat there?

Great staff, reasonabl price, food average

Not very many Vietnamese places in red deer. Food is good but when you ask a question they are kind of rude.

Awesome banh mi, really good value!

Ordered a beef,chicken and shrimp pho but only got 3 pieces of very dry sausages and 1 tiny overly cooked piece of probably 25grams of beef steak . 99% of my pho soup was noodles. Ok beef broth. Im very disappointed as a 1st timer and wont go back there again. Sorry for the bad review but im honest here :-/

Good service and food. Clean bathrooms.

The food was excellent and service very friendly! Id definitely go back again!

Im not fussy and love pho soup. This place is terrible and filthy... Food has gone down hill and the 3rd time in my life I didnt leave a tip. Hard pass.

Very good Pho broth, Id say this place is in the top two in town for good pho. Got takeout and got two containers of broth for each order, very good value, and saved the extra for a homemade soup the next day. My only criticism would be that the meat was a little on the hard and chewey side, maybe not the freshest. Other than that would definitely order from here again

Great shop

I dream about the subs from here. Usually when I try a restaurant for the first time, I struggle to decide which menu item to take a risk on. Thap Ba is so reasonably priced that I could order a few different dishes! Everything was delicious and the noodle serving sizes were huge!

Ok specially they add spam no spam in vietnamese food

My favorite place to order vermicelli.

Wonderful food, friendly staff

Good pho and bun bo hue. Love there XL servings.

Delicious food

I pre-ordered a few items for lunch, as I was passing by on a Sunday. Thats where this Vietnamese Restaurant received a 5th star - theyre open on a Sunday! There is only 2 vietnamese places to choose from on a Sunday, if there is a craving you need to fill. I went with the Spicy Beef Satay sub sandwich - stuffed with a generous amount of ingredients, flavourful & spicy, very soft interior to the bun with a slight crunch to the exterior. Perfect experience. I also added a regular size Spicy Beef Pho soup with choice of thick noodles - it was big. Can I just stop here and say, thank you to the restaurant! Turns out after I picked up my Sunday lunch, I got called back to work and did not get enjoy my lunch until two hours later! However, thanks to the restaurant they had wrapped the soup container in a plastic bag, as well as double wrapped the sandwich keeping it soft. Im truly thankful they did this prep work because on my way back to work the soup container in the bag tilted over a bit on the floor in my backseat, but because everything in the bag was protected- there was no mess whatsoever! The winning moment was later on, when I did have the chance to warm up the pho and didnt need to with sub...it was seriously still outrageously delicious- all of it. This restaurant wins on so many levels. Including the kind lady at the Till taking everyones payment- the restaurant was BEYOND busy and she was very calm, kind and helped everyone at her counter that either wanted to pay, pick-up, or had a question. Wonderful food, service, reasonably priced items, serving size, and location. Oh Im definitely going back to enjoy more! Highly recommend!

I stopped by Thap Ba restaurant today & had a really enjoyable meal. Friendly staff, good food, fair price!

We shared the spring rolls and they were the best ever. Also had the beef sate sub and was the best I ever had. Highly recommend this place. Service is great too!

Ordered some pho soup off doordash but I was quite disappointed when I received the order. The bean sprout were not fresh at all (browning) and there was no basil with the garnishes, only lime. The chili oil also had a different smell. The taste of the soup was also blend.

BEST PHO IN ALBERTA, MAYBE CANADA.

yum yum

One of my fav date spots, take out spots, spots period. I really like their peanut sauce.

From a Vietnamese person who ate viet food at home and out at Vietnamese restaurants (Alot) this is not even 3 . Stop by red deer after camping in the Rockies saw almost 5 stars and was so hyped up because me and my friends and family were starving but was so disappointed about the food. Hope they can do better much better especially the salad rolls and pretty much the whole menu was sad.

the best!

A hidden gem on Geatz! Super fast take-out, delicious and easy on the wallet.

Always tasty!

The Vietnamese food was delicious that we tried. The spring rolls, salad rolls, and sub were delicious. The setting is nice and the staff were friendly enough. The Chinese food we ordered lacked flavour and truthfully, I think all had the same broth. The chicken chow mein was terrible, no flavour, and the egg noodles were identical to cup noodles. The beef stirfry on rice had the same gravy as the chicken chow mein. The wor wonton soup was nearly flavourless. We should have tried the pho and bun, I suspect it would have been a much better meal.

In my experience, best Vietnamese food in Red Deer!

Price was very good but the soup was a little bit too sweet for pho broth. One of the best pho places in Red Deer!

No bad!

Excellent vegetarian spring rolls and fried tofu with vermicelli. Too much for me to eat and such great prices here. A real treasure of a restaurant.

Best restaurant in the entire city. 10/10 spring rolls and wontons. I ve been going since I was a kid and it s the best. Highly recommended trying it if you get the chance!

Food was great service was fast and polite but I was a little unsure about the side but figured it out on my own. There house made hot sauce is amazing

Spacious place. Love the food and staff are kind! Salad roll was pretty dried up, i guess they made ages ago. But other than that, great! And thick noodle is my new favorite!!

Love the pho here

Great food at a reasonable price. Always fast and friendly service

Favorite place to get fair priced hearty delicious foreign food. Very quick service too. Highly recommend.

Great food good service prices were good value

This is our go to Vietnamese restaurant in Red Deer and probably order take out from there once every 2 weeks. The food is always super hot, fresh and the portion sizes are generous. I typically order the #16 beef noodle soup (a little bit spicy) and my husband usually gets #24 grilled pork and spring roll vermicelli bowl and we share an order of the chicken and shrimp salad rolls. Not to mention the prices are super reasonable for what you get. Thanks Thap Ba, we love you guys!!

Easily one of my favorite places in Red Deer. Best Pho in town.

Food was really good !!

Very quick from the time I ordered to when my food was ready (no more than 15 minutes). Food tastes great. Lots of meat, not many vegetables in the vermicelli. 3 sauces provided. Great prices.

So so soooooo good! Best spring rolls I have ever had!

Thap Ba has been a family favorite for many years. Food is always fresh, good sized portions and served very fast. The western food is decent but takes a lot longer to get, Id recommend sticking with the ethnic dishes, you wont be disappointed.

Please never close!!! I prefer from here EVERY time I come to red deer. I have acquired a taste for pho and salad rolls and to be honest no one has come close to taste. This is a must have if you like pho.

Best Vietnamese noodles I had in Red Deer. I love the noodles soup and sub. Good broth and enough ingredients in the noodles soup! Too bad is they don t open on Monday now. I usually have lunch on Monday at their place!

Thap Ba, is hands down the best Vietnamese food Ive had!! Im fully addicted!! They offer delivery, they are decently priced. I highly recommend the special Vietnamese sub, or the chicken satay sub, they are both delicious. The spring rolls are really good, the Pho Beef noodle soup is my go to. They are a family run business, support local you wont be disappointed.

Delicious!

Delicious, fresh food. With great service.

Ive never had a bad meal or experience here. The staff is great and food is delicious!

Great soup Clean place Staff not so friendly Good tasting food

I have my favourites. This one was new to me so unfair to compare to my regular Viet spots. Probably would have preferred more fresh bean sprouts in my vermicelli noodle dish. All good.

Recommend going here to everyone if its your first time order the 21

Was super fast for me to pick up. Such fantastic flavors!! Was happy with everything we ordered. Dry ribs, spring rolls, salad roll, special vermicelli all soo delicious!!

My very favorite Vietnamese place. I strongly recommend the special salad roles. The fried spring roll in the middle is the best part!

Freaking amazing

Fantastic spot! We had 2 vermicelli dishes that came out fast and hot! Wish we lived in Red Deer so we can dine here more often!

They have decent food, service is ok but the most irritating thing is that they are often randomly closed.

Not open screw this place..... if your going to close update online hours

Great food, good service and clean bathrooms.

I had Beef Rice noodle and Beef Stir fry Rice. The fried rice was delicious and the rice noodles were similar to those at other Pho restaurants, but my wife said it smelled a bit like meat. I enjoyed both of them. It was clean and nice except the interior was a bit dark.

Food quality has deteriorated . I had a vermicelli bowl and chicken tasted like it had been frozen for several months. My wife had a noodle dish that was saturated with garlic. This used to be our favourite vietnamese restaurant. Not anymore.

Not good, and borderline gross. The salad rolls have a pork sausage in them, instead of a shredded pork meat. When I voiced my concerns (without asking for a refund) the staff argued with me. I absolutely do not recommend the food here. The other menu items I had were not made from quality ingredients and lacked flavour.

great little hole in the wall place. rough parking, slow staff, but still deserves 5 stars.

Order special XL side noodle, just large portion noodle, then inside the bowl 1.5oz meat Man washroom only pump hot water, not warm not cold

Amazing food at a reasonable price. I have been going to Thap Ba for years now and encourage anyone to give them a taste. The lemongrass pork is amazing with the slight char!!!

Enjoyed the soup, aquarium gave some unusual dining room entertainment.

I order from here usually once a month - always fantastic dining! I love the special salad rolls - very very good! Keep being awesome!

Always good.

Ordered the Beef Vermicelli to go, only had to wait 15 mins and was the best I ve had in Red Deer! Will definitely go back!

Excellent food and service at a great price. I was happily surprised to find a Vietnamese restaurant in Red Deer that was comparable to those in NY. Just wish I could come visit more often.

Ordering here for the first time, the quality of the food is terrible! Not recommended at all!

Just picked up a sub here. I took it to go on my way through town. I waited outside and there was a constant stream of people coming in and out of the restaurant. I can see why this little place is so busy. Absolutely delicious food!

Great food and service. Friendly service.

Meal was ready for pick up quickly on a Saturday night. Overall good food!

Best Vietnamese restaurant in Alberta. Very authentic

The best of the best! I order in weekly and am never disappointed

Best Viet food in the city.
