Each dish was absolutely delicious, hard to find restaurants where you can't order a dish wrong. As always, the chicken wings were great, and bun bo hue is amazing. BBH is very spicy though so be prepared to tolerate lots of chili oil. Pho meats were tender. Also ordered the lemongrass chicken rice, soft shell crab, and crispy beef brisket pho. Spring rolls were full but I forgot to take the pic before- oops! Thai iced tea isn't devastatingly sweet which is always a good thing- has the consistency and flavour like cold melted ice cream! Would definitely come back again.
At Nam, I tried their chicken and egg rice dish, and it was solid. The chicken was tender, nicely seasoned, and paired well with the fluffy rice and perfectly cooked egg. The portion size was generous, and the flavors were balanced, giving off that comforting, home-cooked vibe. The restaurant itself had a cozy atmosphere, and the service was quick and friendly. Overall, it’s a great spot for a casual, satisfying Vietnamese meal.
Food was phenomenal, but I wish I could give the owner or manager a resounding ZERO. There was a black wet stain on the side of my Bun Bo Hue noodle soup bowl, it appeared to be perhaps ink, or soot from the grill, or paint, not a condiment you would find in a Vietnamese restaurant. When I asked the staff member what it was, they called the manager(?) over, and he started aggressively trying to gaslight me into thinking that the substance was a sauce that I know for certain does not go into Bun Bo Hue. He did not take my concern even remotely seriously and began taking a very aggressive attitude towards me. I asked to see the sauce, and he said that they couldn't take the sauce out of the kitchen. I then went up to see a view of the kitchen, and he pointed out that it was in a bottle with what seemed to be a black-looking sauce. I asked if he could dispense some of it onto a small sauce dish to look at, and he refused, saying that it was against the "policy." At this point, things seemed very, very fishy. Seeing as how he couldn't bring the sauce outside, I asked if I could go inside to see the sauce. He brought me into the kitchen, where I was looking for other potential sources of the black substance. I saw a grill top being used to blacken some meat and took a mental snapshot of that. He proceeded to take the bottle in question and squirt out into a bowl. Guess what? A see-through light brown liquid, not resembling the pitch-black inky substance that was still coating the edge of the bowl. When I pointed out the marked difference, he tripled down on his position, saying, "That is what the sauce looks like when cooked." Since I was entrenched in my position on this, he offered to have the dish on the house, but that was not really my concern. Naturally, I was instead worried that I may have ingested something poisonous. He assured me that because the restaurant had been "running for 10 years, " they were "very safety." He ultimately never took the concern very seriously. However, after further talks, he DID agree to take any and all responsibility should I have gotten sick, as well as offered compensation for the entire meal. Unfortunately, this was less than genuine as it seemed he acquiesced only wanting us to leave, to avoid my party potentially causing further disturbance to the business, that he brought on himself with the awful attitude. The issue was NOT with the service staff, food, or atmosphere, all of which I and the company found very stellar. The issue was simply the poor attitude of the owner(?) and getting overly aggressive right out of the gates, maintaining that aggressive stance, lacking any semblance of composure, and flat out lying about the nature of the substance, or at the very least, not entertaining the possibility that it COULD HAVE been something hazardous for one's health. I have seen other poor reviews with similar sentiments about the manager. I hope that he can improve his behavior to match the excellent quality of their food. Stay safe, everybody!
This is the place to come for a nice bowl of good quality Pho! They have a good variety of food on the menu. We especially love the special Pho, chicken wings, frog legs and spring rolls. The staff here are also really friendly.
It is the best place for Pho. The food tastes fabulous！ We ordered the Traditional Vietnamese Burn and shell crab noodles. The food is fresh and delicious! Strongly recommended 😘
Great service, came during the day around 2pm and got seated right away. Tables are more communal seating, so be prepared to share a table with another family or group. You order from the menu and write down the number from the menu onto a piece of paper and they collect your order when you're ready. We ordered the sticky chicken wings, grilled pork vermicelli noodle, and grilled pork chop and chicken on rice. I also got the grilled pork chop and chicken on rice for take out. Priced are on par with other vietnamese restaurants. They serve complimentary tea and it had a great light floral flavour. The wings are garlicky, sweet and savoury. The grilled meat had a nice grilled flavour and a good amount of meat for each dish. The chili garlic sauce was a nice top off to our dishes although beware it gets spicy. Delicious food. I'd come again if I'm in the area *tip - free thai iced tea or ice coffee with a Google review. MON - FRI buy one get one free for their iced dessert drinks.
One of the best Vietnamese cuisine restaurants in GTA. Besides the "normal " dishes, Nam offers an extended choice of delicious dishes. The Smoked Rib and Braised Rib was simply amazing . Family owned offering generous portions and fantastic value 👏
Omg this place is amazing! Almost hidden gem, So happy I was with a friend who orders wings or I never would have tried these, They’re signature wings are some of the best I’ve had, didn’t know it would be from a Vietnamese restaurant! Perfect crunch and not strong but perfect flavour with the lime juice dip. This place is busy all through lunch and for good reason, never too busy too get a seat tho, order the beef banh mi! And the original wings , if you like sticky wings, order those too, also the best I’ve had (sticky is an understatement and the crazy crunch is still they’re, Pretty sure you can order anything here and it’s great. Good portions, Owners very nice
Best chicken wings and smoked beef!
Very friendly owner and family friendly too
Amazing service and delicious food! Very professional and efficient. Coming back for sure! Thank you to Ming! Food
The environment of this restaurant is very good, very clean and tidy. The food not only looks beautiful, but more importantly, tastes great, both in color and taste. The method retains the original taste of the ingredients, making it fresh and refreshing. Moreover, there are many choices of dishes and the prices are not high, so it is suitable to go with the family.
everything i ve tried here tastes delicious
My favorite Vietnamese food spot in the GTA! The vermicelli noodles was chefs kiss! Would definitely recommend!
Food are delicious
Have been coming here for a couple of years. Food is consistent and I love this branch over the Markham branch. There chicken wings here has a sweeter taste than Markhams which I personally prefer. The(40hr) smoked braised ribs are the bomb here!! Its a must try!! My always go to for some authentic pho. This location is smaller but cozy.
great
It s not as good as before. We went there 2 days ago and the Pho we ordered was a disaster. There was a layer of oil on top of the soup. When we use the spoon to get some soup, it was like a spoon of oil. No taste for the soup at all. We miss the Nam before but this one we will never go back again.
yummy
Great restaurant with delicious food and good variety on the menu. Owner is very nice.
Favourite bun no hue in the city!
Excellent food and good service!
Chicken wings were very flavourful and crispy, Pho was very good!
Nam is one of the best pho places I have ever tried in Toronto, really tasty and the owner and the workers are all so nice and sweet
Best pho spot in richmond hill! Fast and good service.
Great food and great service! Owners are super friendly! Definitely would recommend!
The pho was delicious and the chicken wings were great. Friendly staff and a cozy vibe. Definitely coming back
The price is high, delicious, and crowded
Very delicious pho!
Food was great! Place is a little small so come though .
Amazing service, came at 8 p.m. and got seated in under 20 minutes. The servers were polite and friendly. I ordered the pho and Thai tea. The pho was served with brisket which was juicy and tender, and warm, comforting broth. The Thai tea was served in a to-go cup for convenience and was cool, sweet, and refreshing.
All good except that the place seems a bit dirty. Lady is using rubber glove to do everything.. from cleaning to serving.
The chicken wings here are so good!! We always order a large because they are just that good. Its a must order!
Been here for a few times already. The wings and the smoked brisket are always my favourite.
First time at Nam and had their signature wings and been brisket pho. Both 5/5. Will be coming here a lot more
A very delicious Vietnamese restaurant! I had the chicken wings which were perfectly fried and was very flavourful! I had the bun rieu which was also very good and for a very good price you can have a side soft shell crab that s actually a full soft shell crab! I wished the soup was a bit more tomato-ey though! Overall an excellent experience!
Very friendly service. Felt just at home and food was hearty and delicious.
Nam is my go-to place for pho. Their broth is a quite hearty and comforting, perfect for a chilly day. I also really like their decor. However, it does get packed during lunch and dinner time so plan ahead!
I often pass by this restaurant and it is said to be an internet celebrity restaurant. I stopped by today to check in. The food is very good, the restaurant is clean and tidy, and the service is warm and thoughtful. Prepare to develop this treasure shop into a canteen Thank you to all the staff, keep going Kid-friendliness: Suitable
Awesome all around
been coming to Nam weekly, if not biweekly, ever since I learned about this place. The chicken wings are to die for.
Yummy
Nice restaurant with excellent service.

Very nice service and staff, the food was good.
Very good food and service
Tasteful foods, pho is a must try here!
Tried their bun bo hue and I must say it was really really good. The service was below average if I am being honest but I think they redeemed themselves by throwing in the free Thai iced tea at the very end. Will be back someday to try some of their other dishes.
Nam Vietnamese Restaurant exceeded expectations! Delicious noodles and mouth-watering braised ribs. Great service and atmosphere. Will be back!
Delicious chicken wings! Didn t anticipate the portion was this humongous!! Will certainly come back again
Tried chicken rice, pretty tasty and authentic.
Best Vietnamese restaurant in town, hands down

My go-to pho restaurant in Richmond Hill
Good food and fast serves.
Had some pho this rainy day and it hit the spot. Service was fast and food was the perfect temperature. Ordered a coffee to go and the gentlemen working gave us a Thai tea on the house! Very appreciated and delicious!!
Food is delicious
It was a perfect meal. However, could you possibly use a little less salt on the chicken wings? They were so salty that my tongue went numb I wonder if it was a mistake. Still, they were the best chicken wings Ive ever had. The pho was also delicious. Ill definitely come back!
The signature dishes at this restaurant are incredible, definitely worth trying!
Has always been 1 of my favorites if not my absolute favorite Vietnamese restaurants- tasty and clean, also love the decor This restaurant has been here for a long time and for many tasty reasons this place never disappoints Food
Great pho, always packed though
Service is great, food comes out fast, and tastes amazing. Great price for the quality and portion.
Unique and unbeatable taste! I would recommend the crap noodle soup and the fried chicken the whole vibe is unique and interesting as well! Would definitely come back
Love the variety of dishes and great service!
Great food and friendly staff
Family owned and operated by truly an amazing team who is so dedicated to the craft of serving up the best Pho the city has to offer. We are regulars and always feel special and like home when we dine in or takeout. #37 rare beef is my go to and delicious. Their chicken wings I believe deserve a Michelin star absolutely succulent perfectly light batter with a light seasoning and sauce topped with green onions. I love supporting local businesses like this, folks who work hard and give back to others and the community.
I like the pho
Best place for lunch in Richmond Hill! Try the #20
Always good food! Their wings are bomb

Have tried nam2 but have always wanted to try nam. I was excited to see beef stew noodles on the menu. I haven t seen this item at many other pho places for a long time. Brisket was soft and soup was very flavorful!
Decent place to hangout on normal days for pho with fresh noodles and very generous in beef with good quality the only improvement is a richer broth.
Never disappointing

The original Nam in comparison to their sister restaurant Nam2, they continue to excel at strong flavours and whole ingredients. The crab with tapioca noodles is great and has lots of crab and other proteins. The chicken wings remain one of their signature dishes as well. I will be returning when I can!
The crispy chicken wings are the best.
Excellent pho restaurant and their iced coffee is so good!
The food was really good, have to to try the dual at least once. Super filling -
