Pho Xe Lua Vietnamese Cuisine in Richmond Hill

I like the student rice options

This place is very nice for students during lunch, service is fast and food is yummy! Affordable pricing too!

This is my comfort restaurant when I want a meal that wont make me feel gross or guilty. Just simple and delicious

Great place to get pho. Can use sauces to customize your food as well

As a huge fan of the Vietnamese cuisine, Pho Xe Lua always provided that experience. The food is certainly makes you feel like you are in Vietnam eating the authentic thing. Service is quick and every meal came fresh and hot. Highly recommend any of their broth pho bowls and a side dish like spring rolls or satay fish balls to accompany it.

superrr good pho! always reliable for a great meal and good pricing!! the restaurant is always clean and the staff are always friendly and give fast service!

Been going to Pho Xe Lua for about 4 years already, ever since high school, and even though I moved to university, I still crave this place. Andy is the owner of Pho Xe Lua. He is extremely friendly and is someone that genuinely has a good heart and cares for his customers. He s even helped me for a school project before! As for food, it is amazing with a large variety and super affordable prices, hence why all the students go there. I would 100% recommend this place!

This place cured me of my terminal depression and I later went on and built a multi-million dollar company just because this restaurant help me with my mental health. Do recommend 100%

Very nice and tidy restaurant, food was amazing, washrooms were nice and clean, owner Andy is very kind and helpful, and very affordable.

Great food, amazing hospitality

This pho restaurant offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with authentic Vietnamese flavors. The broth is rich, well-balanced, and full of depth, clearly simmered for hours to perfection. Fresh herbs, tender meats, and generous portions make each bowl satisfying and filling. The staff is friendly and attentive, making it a great spot for both quick lunches and cozy dinners.

Great food, great staff and service

Can t review the food since- since no one came up to grab the order for over 20 minutes . The place is full of students- screaming and yelling.

Best pho in town. Variety of flavors and types of dishes. Been going to the place for 20yrs even when they were located in south richmond hill. Prices are reasonable and the owner is very friendly and welcoming

Pretty good

Great food, large variety and cheap! Highly Recommend

Love the pho house special here. I ve been going here since I was a child! The owner is always so kind whenever I come here to dine in.

Anthony and staff, Chef are really nice amd if you explain to them what you want, or what you have had at a different restaurant, they will totally accommodate you and try their best to get what you love...I personally love the beef pho rice noodle soup. I hope they stay for a long long ling time. Thanks Anthony and Staff..

Pho taste good and smells great. Price is good and good variety of food

Good food and very cheap.

An amazing restaurant, very student friendly. The owner is very kind and nice to talk to. The food is great and the price is even better. The staff are very friendly.

I absolutely love this place. Good food, good service and a very very kind man named Andy works there. This is where a lot of my friends would go to for lunch, which will forever be a core memory. 10/10 would HIGHLY recommend.

Vegetarian options: Various dishes with vegetarian options Parking: At the back of the store Food : 5/5 |

Great environment to chill with friends the people there are great

Best pho restaurant in the area. The food is always good, and the staff is very friendly. If you come here, you re not just getting a bowl of pho, you re getting a warm bowl of happiness.

Friendly staff and delicious comfort food. Favourite spot for when i m craving Vietnamese food!

Wow what a disappointment. I got the vermicelli with bbq pork and spring roll. First of all, it was not vermicelli. It was like lo mien sized rice noodles (so not the thick flat rice noodles). Spring roll tasted burnt. Pork was overcooked and flavourless (and appeared to be deep fried, not bbq). Even the sauce didn t have a lot of flavour. No fresh herbs. Really disappointing meal.

This dude Andy saved my family from a housefire, 10/10 would go again

loved this place

super awesome goated food and goated owner AND workers and yummy chili oil

Very delicious food + An amazing owner AND workers

My go-to pho restaurant Amazing food and service, the staff is super nice and always made me feel at home. Great lunch spot for students!!

Food ok. Nothing impressive. Not many people, dont get why it took a while to bring seafood pho.

Goated best pho

Best pho place out there

I LOVE PHO I LOVE ANDY I LOVE 109 LARGE!! Food : 5/5

Great vibes and excellent food. Enjoyed different meat options and had a great variety of drinks!!

I love eating pho here. The staff very great. I love 101 Large

really good service and the food is great!

I come here almost every week for lunch. The food is amazing and the service is great as well. Best restaurant near Bayview Secondary School

pho tastes amazing and its cheap!

101 might just be the greatest thing to exist

Despite not being able to go very often, I love going to XELUA for an amazing and authentic Vietnamese meal with friendly staff and a pleasant atmosphere. The noodles and rice are not only tasty but soothe the soul along with the delicious milkshakes. If you are ever in the area and craving Vietnamese food, I highly recommend XELUA as they always provide an enjoyable time.

We were hoping for a good late-night meal, but this Vietnamese pho place was a major let-down. The pho broth was incredibly bland, lacking any of the depth and richness youd expect. Even adding in the sauces couldnt save it. The spring rolls were equally unimpressive, tasting more like rolled lettuce instead. Were not sure if it was because it was late, but this restaurant fell short on our expectations. They also charge for the containers and no Sriracha was included.

Ordered the vermicelli spring roll dish for take out. Fast and good service however when I got home and started eating I was quite disappointed. The meat was slightly burnt and flavourless and the spring roll was incredibly oily also lacked much filling and flavour.

Great place to go eat some noodles and Vietnamese food overall, love coming here and especially recommend the meat ball soup

Great place for students

I just love eating here. Dietary restrictions: They have an option to inform in case you have any food restriction. Food : 4/5 |

We used to go this place and food was good. Today we had phoe noodle. The quality is very low. Will not go.

Andy the goat

Amazing, value for money food during my 4 years at Bayview Secondary School! Thanks for everything, Andy!

Authentic Vietnamese food. Like their fresh noodles

Good pho spot, and great owner.

Great food, great people. Holds a special place in my heart as one of the OG Viet restaurants in town.

Very friendly owner, 101 is a classic

Amazing customer service here! As a student right across the street, ITS AMAZING. Food is absolutely delicious and the drinks are very popular. I highly recommend this resturant and is a must visit for sure. #GODDID

Goated restaurant. Epic food, amazing service that makes me feel home. It s always somewhere I would dine in once a while coming back to the town even after graduation. It s where had lot of great memories with my friends. Love you Andy

My friends and I stopped by on a whim after a long day of working at a project, and we definitely didnt expect such large portions of delicious Pho, and befriending the staff by the time we walked out of the restaurant! Would highly recommend to all!

Food is always good, I enjoy coming here to lunch every week. The service is good as well, the owner is a wonderful guy and super kind. Highly recommend!

I pho

Food is priced quite fairly, especially if you are a student. Food is also quite good! Food

This place is one of the best spots to go for lunch right next to Bayview Secondary School. I love the food here but not as much as I love the service here. The store owner is so heartwarmingly helpful and amazing. For sure an 11/10 spot !!!

Very affordable for students compared to typical pricing

So good for the price!

My go to quick lunch meal spot. Affordable, tasty, and quick. The 101, 109, and grilled chicken and rice dishes are my go-tos. This place is amazing if you want a delicious lunch and have a time constraint. Though, I d be careful about going on a weekday at lunch because it is rather busy and you may not have a spot to dine-in.

Service is great, and the food is consistently good. My recommendation would be a pho bowl Food : 5/5

Best pho in York (Review by Slava Petroff) Food

shoutout keith. best service i ve ever had

Very flavourful pho at a great price. Extremely friendly staff. Highly recommended

Pho-nomenal food at an amazing price. Owner is super nice. Must visit

I usually come several times a week. The service and food have been at a consistently good standard, and I would recommend giving this place a try Food : 5/5

Everyone here is super nice. Great atmosphere. All the food is top tier. Get the rare beef noodle it s honestly one of the best things I ve ever had, paired with the mango milkshake is heavenly. Only downside is the students that come from Bayview, they re very loud Parking: There s always a spot

Great restaurant with friendly service. The student meals here are also a really good deal.

Heart warming place to eat with tasty and affordable food!!!!

My favourite chill pho spot in all of North America. Highly recommended the owner of the shop is soo nice and welcoming. They play nice music and have really good portion size for the price. Dietary restrictions: they have vegan options and they also allow you to choose not to put certain ingredients in a dish. Parking: Free parking in the back Kid-friendliness: Student discount Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible to all

Extremely welcoming atmosphere, fantastic service, and the food serves both excellent quality and quantity with stunningly low prices. Definitely a hidden gem and would highly recommend.

Great food, service, and staff!

great place i m come here every day

Our families go to pho spot. The broth is fantastic and the portions are generous. The staff is always super friendly and you can tell it is family owned. Highly recommend a visit.

Great restaurant for pho and other rice and noodle dishes. Their drinks are delicious as well, and their staff are very nice and friendly. Highly recommend!

Been coming here for years - one of my favourite pho spots in Richmond Hill!! Quality and flavour is ALWAYS consistent, restaurant is clean and you get served quickly no matter how busy they are. Very accommodating too - came for a birthday with a picky eater who liked her sweet and sour pork a certain way, and Andy made sure to work with the kitchen staff so that everyone was happy. Definitely recommend!

GREAT FOOD!

Great service! Ask to see Andy, he will give you special service

The location is very convenient and the food and service is amazing!!

The house special was fantastic and the spring rolls where amazing! Highly recommend if you are a fan of vietnamese cuisine

Amazing Place!

Amazing

Kid-friendliness: Affordable lunch options for students Recommended dishes

Food and service is always fast and tastes amazing. Good option for both dine in and takeout. Staff is friendly and portions are sooo generous. My go to spot for Vietnamese food, would definitely recommend to anyone in the area. My favourite is their house special pho and deep fried spring rolls. Will be coming back for more :)

I love andy

Great food and prices.

One of my favourite places to eat when Im in town. Good pho, good vermicelli, good spring rolls, good rice dishes with beef, chicken, pork. Always a delicious time when dining at Pho Xe Lua!

It was delicious, had good service, and building was clean !

Quaint, clean, spot for some hearty, filling pho. Their beef vermicelli is never left unfinished; and the steamed egg and lemongrass chicken pairs with their rice beautifully.

Ordered first time for delivery from Skip. Order of bun came with a piece of a rag. I spit it out not because I identified it as a rag through the texture but because as I chewed it it tasted of chemicals. After I spit it out I realized it was a piece of cloth. Last time we will be ordering from here.

Food and service is great here!

Best pho of my life

great service!!!
