Hidden gem to experience all the local flavours of Vietnamese cuisine. Everything here is bursting with flavour. We had an early lunch on a Monday and I thought it was a nice touch that they serve customers jasmine tea here instead of water or a watered down black tea like most other restaurants. It's a small restaurant with very nice decor filled with traditional elements. We didn't wait long until the seating inside the restaurant filled up quickly and it seems like they are a hot spot for online orders. There is a huge variety of food options to select from their menu. We opted for the Bun Bo Hue and Pho Dac Biet#2. Personally, I preferred the latter. Prices here are slightly higher but I think it's well worth it. Portion size here is generous. The Bun Bo Hue was not the best I had but I can tell that they use quality ingredients and didn't skip on the ingredients to make their broth. One thing I did notice was that they only provided us bean sprouts and lime but no Thai basil. We also each ordered a hot Vietnamese black coffee with condensed milk but the cups that they were served in seemed a bit oversized compared to the volume of the beverage itself. Perhaps the iced version of this beverage is more popular here. Also, they only accept cash and debit here and they are not willing to split bills. Parking in this plaza can be a bit tricky depending on the day and time.
Follow @bredgyeats for more food pics! This bone marrow isn't just for show, adding another layer of indulgent, fatty beefiness into the broth while also sneaking a few spoonfuls of the marrows to compliment a bite of the tender slices of beef. The fresh rice noodles are a bit flat, picking up the Vietnamese parent-approved broth. The banh goi is a fried dumpling with a satisfyingly crisp wrapper, filled with an aromatic mix of minced beef, vermicelli, and quail eggs to dip into a slightly sweet fish sauce that bursts with umami. It's a nice starter and a great combination for the DIY platter, which delivers a beautifully arranged tray of fried crab spring rolls, grilled pork and a variety of vegetables to wrap with rice paper and lettuce. Oh, and don't forget the bone marrow to include in your wrap as well, you will not regret it.
We went here for dinner, and we came a bit early, before 6:00 pm, but the place was already half full. The atmosphere very nice, the decor was impressive. For 3 of us we ordered 4 dishes, noodle soup with beef brisket, vermicelli with grilled pork, the Vietnamese crepe, and chicken wings. They did not disappoint us. The vermicelli and the crepe were presented on round bamboo trays. Very nicely done. The taste of the dishes was good, although too much beansprout in the crepe, too little meat and shrimp. All in all, enjoyed very much the dinner.
A Hidden Gem for Food Lovers! I recently dined at Linh Anh Resto and it was an experience worth sharing! From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the inviting ambiance—a perfect balance of modern design and cultural charm. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it an ideal spot for both casual meals and special occasions. The food is absolutely phenomenal. Every dish bursts with authentic flavors and fresh ingredients. The attention to detail in presentation and taste is unmatched. The service was impeccable. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about ensuring a great dining experience. From recommending dishes to promptly addressing requests, they went above and beyond. Linh Anh Resto is a place where quality, service, and ambiance come together seamlessly. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable dining experience. I will definitely be returning soon! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The food taste so good and the servings are generous. Fast service and attentive servers. The place is not that big but the interior is well decorated and looked nice. Can come back again.
Impressive Vietnamese dining experience! My father and I visited Linh Ahn based on the Maps reviews and I have to say that my positive experience mirrored that of other posters. The dining certainly seems upscale to other Vietnamese establishments that I enjoy. The decor is immediately striking and sets the vibe. The service is polite and efficient. I had the pho and the presentation was definitely food photo worthy, especially with the attention grabbing marrow bone jutting out. And the quality and taste of the dish was excellent. I like the attention to detail here, for example the deep bowl which amps the presentation and the long spoons with hooks at the end which fit perfectly inside without dropping in. I believe that it's reflective of how they operate. Free parking in the lot but it can get congested as there are other worthy destinations here. Cash and debit only. A good spot to impress your date. Enjoy!
The restaurant is always busy and not very big, with tables spaced close together, offering little privacy. The pho broth isn’t the best, especially compared to other places and was very oily. The quality of the meat was low and tasted old. The grilled chicken was good but didn’t taste very authentic with little lemongrass flavour. The soup for the chicken pho also did not taste good. We would not come back.
Great food, great service, good atmosphere! We tried the house special that comes with bone marrow for $21. The bone marrow piece is huge. The portion size is really generous, though I felt like my noodles were a little overcooked. We also got the fresh rolls which were good, and the grilled chicken and spring roll vermicelli. I'm normally not a huge spring roll guy but this one was delicious. The restaurant also was giving out a free appetizer that they plan on introducing to the menu - a toasted banh mi bun with melted cheese on top. Was tasty but I don't know if I would pay for an appetizer like that if I'm being honest. The place was super busy when we showed up on a Sunday around 12:30 and continued to have a line of people waiting to get a seat. Only accepts debit or cash, and there's a small patio on the side of the restaurant.
Good and nice food
Great food
The food here is consistently amazing flavorful and aromatic. The service is excellent, with staff always attentive to your needs. This would easily be a 5-star review, but I have one minor suggestion for the business, as well as a heads-up for new customers. The restaurant can get quite cramped on weekends, regardless of the time. I haven t visited on a weekday yet, but the space is definitely small. Parking is also a struggle due to the size of the lot which is very small. On occasion, if there are no available seats and you re part of a two-person party, they may seat you at a larger table with a family. While not a major issue, this can slightly impact the overall dining experience.
Tonight I visited this restaurant with my husband and two young kids. The food is okay, a bit overpriced in my opinion. We accidentally ordered a wrong drink. I wrote down the wrong number on the paper and only realized when they delivered the drink to my table. I told the lady I didn t order this drink and she showed me the paper I wrote down the number. She said I need to have it because that s my mistake wrote it wrong. Okay I admit that s my fault and I paid for the wrong drink. However when I think back, the cause for this accident is mainly because their staff didn t repeat my order when i gave them the paper. If they did, I should know I wrote it wrong. Anyways I could suggest their owner to give their staff this kind of basic training in order to avoid same thing happened.
Great service
Very nice crew, good food,Nice atmosphere
very nice atmosphere, quick and polite service
yummy
I had a fantastic dining experience at a Vietnamese restaurant! The pho was incredibly flavorful, and the chicken was perfectly juicy. The portions were generous. Their Vietnamese iced coffee had the perfect balance of bold and sweet flavors. The restaurant was spotless, and the service was attentive and friendly, which made the entire experience even better. I highly recommend this place!
This place gave me the wrong order and called them out and lied! I ordered #07 with bone marrow and this lad lied and said it s #08 that comes with bone marrow. It clearly said on the menu 07 comes with bone marrow -not #08!!! Still charged me with #07, I just realised when we got home and saw the receipt! Disappointed on our first time! There are better places out there that are more affordable! So stingy with the portion!
Awesome food, and a great experience!
Busy place. But after tryjng the food, I understood why it was so busy.
Really beautiful restaurant with great food. The staff accommodated to my allergies with no issues.
Great food and service! Would come again next time!
Been here 3 times already and the food is amazing! Recommend #7 Pho Duc Biet.
Very good pho, yummy in my tummy
best pho trt
veryvery good experience
The beef bone pho is very delicious.
The best Bun Bo Hue i ve ever had in Toronto
Amazing place!
Amazing food & great service! Could use more seating, way too cramped
The mango & pig ear salad is amazing,taste explosion in my palate, I highly recommend it. There is only one size Pho. Rare beef pho has plenty of beef, but the rice noodles are much less than previously. Add extra rice noodles for 3 dollars. Family run restaurant, friendly and courteous staff with proactive service. The pho broth is the soul of the foods, very well done, well seasoned and no MSG. Plenty of meats with #1 served with meats on separate dish, quite generous, broth served in piping hot stone bowl. and my alternate #8 combo meats pho when I am not starving. Bun Rieu is at standard, but not spectacular. Location at busy high traffic. Short 20 minutes on queue at peak service periods. Take out is well packed with lots of rare beef, loving this place. Kudos to owner operator, we are now regulars.
The
They definitely made efforts to decorate and make the place feel cosy and like Vietnam. The pho broth was rich and well seasoned. The portions were good and the service was fast and attentive. I would definitely recommend if youre in the area.
Delicious pho and friendly service
Pho and Banh mi is very delicious!!
bit crowded, but its cheap for how good it is.
Love the atmosphere! Good broth :)
#20 was very yummy
The food was great and it came out quickly.
This is my third time visit! Everything is good!
Pho is good, would definitely come next time!
Ordered the pad thai with shrimp. Its spicy but its alright. Place is starting to get busy. Restaurant has nice decor.
Ordered their short rib noodle soup in a stone bowl. The soup was served piping hot but the rib was a little gimmicky. The bone wasn t cooked long enough and I had a hard time taking meat off the bone. The soup tastes really nice and the portion was quite filling. Service was quick. There was a line but moved decently fast. The place isn t roomy and it gets busy during dinner time.
Food was really good and portions were pretty big too. Would definitely come again!!
so gooooodd!!
Love their new duck soup Ps. We arrived on Sunday night at 6 pm, and we waited for around 10 minutes to get a table. Food : 5/5
Good service and good food..
Highly recommend this place! Don t miss out on their Pho Dac Biet (its their house special with bone marrow) as well as their fried spring rolls and shrimp spring rolls. If you re a foodie like me, you ll love this place! They have a fantastic selection of dishes and we loved everything we tried. I can t wait to come back again!
Was a bit busy but got seated quickly. Food was awesome and fresh. Definitely going again!
Taste good!
Gooood taste!!! Will be back
Consistently good pho. Spring rolls are crispy. Always busy there but usually not too long of a wait.
This is my best friend and I favourite place to eat! The fried spring rolls is our comfort food we love it! The girl that worked tonight was so quick, and very helpful.
Just going to echo a lot of the previous reviews. This place has great food. The parking isnt too spacious or accessible, so I usually get takeout and bring it home to eat. Been coming for a long time and never had a poor experience
Very tasty.
fantastic
Good environment, nice service, the rice noodle is pretty tasteful.
Very nice place for a Friday night dinner!
Good food and good price! Will recommend
Must try! Authentic Vietnamese cuisine. Will recommend
We went to try Linh Anh because we were craving for Vietnamese food and were in the area. The parking lot was full but a car just came out so we got a spot in front of the restaurant and the place was full but luckily we got a table after a few minutes. We ordered 1 grilled chicken pho, 1 rare beef & meat balls pho, and 1 grilled beef with crab meats spring roll vermicelli. All were tasty and huge.
First time here and tried a few things: Grilled Pork Vermicelli, it has lots of veggies, more than vermicelli, it s ok for us for this portion because we like the veggies more; but the pork is very flavorful. Grilled Chicken Pho, lots of soup, the broth is very good. The Grilled Chicken has a hint of charcoal aroma and it s very tender and juicy. The only thing is I hope they can cut into bite piece when they serve it, coz I have to use our own food scissors and chopstick to cut the chicken steak. Grilled Pork Sandwich, the sandwich is overflowing with fresh toppings, tons of pork in there and it s very tasty. I love it!! I also tried the Vietnamese Iced Coffee, it s very very strong that I think it taste like double shot of espresso, but it s good to go with the sandwich. The place maybe a bit pack but I m kind of used to it coz many Vietnamese pho place are similar, and if you don t like to sit too close to another table, you can sit at the patio too
nice food
Awesome food
Delicious, big portion
Great food!
Delicious pho!!!!
Food is amazing
Food is amazing! Big portions and the staff named Ethan is very friendly and polite!
Ethan is the best! I love him more than the food.
Food is great!
Perfect restaurant, love it!
Excellent
Wonderful experience. Staff was busy but was able to get our order in within 10-15 minutes. Went on a Thursday night around 8:30pm and it was packed. Recommend trying to make reservations ahead of time so you are not waiting to get in. I ordered a curry chicken and it had a pretty good kick to it. Also ordered the #8 Pho Bat Da and a roll dish and it was very, very filling. A very large meaty bone came with it lol. Had a great time that evening. Thanks for everything!!
I was excited to try this place but left disappointed The meat in the pho did not seem like good quality and there were fatty parts that were hard to chew. The broth was also not that flavourful and their house-made noodles were very starchy.
Always great experience, and great food!! My go to place :)
Great food great service very nice
Amazing food
Willing to come back
Good
Love the food, the plating was has a very nice variety of vegetables and meat. Definitely a must return place
Best pho soup ever, this restaurant is my favourite Vietnamese restaurant and highly recommended.
I enjoyed my bone marrow bowl. The noodles were soft and tasted fresh, the soup was mild and savory - the beef pieces, tripe and marrow all blended deliciously making it a perfect pho for a rainy day. The Cha Gio (fried spring roll) was mouthwatering. Snappy service. And ample parking. coming back cause it s worth my bucks
I went here to meet a friend and realized they didnt have many veg options. What they did was replace the pork from one of the noodle meals for me, and replaced it with fried tofu, accompanied with soya sauce since most broths and sauces are non veg. I appreciated their accommodations. Food was fresh. I also had their fresh lemonade. Vegetarian options: Very limited. Parking: Plaza
great service and food and the decorations were beautiful
Soild food plenty parking
Delicious!
Great food!
delicious food with amazing service
delicious food
Great portion of food and perfect combination with veggies and protein, great place to try Southeast Asia delicacy.
It was pretty busy but we got a table really fast. We ordered Grilled Chicken and Pork plate and their signature House Pho with bone marrow. My Pho came pretty quick, in my opinion it was overrated. The bone marrow was good but the Pho itself was kinda bad. Soup was extremely salty but at the same time lacks flavour (dont tell me salty means flavour, im talking about aromatics and seasoning and spices), noodles was overcooked it was way too soft ( I couldve told the servers about this but no one did quality check on us) the chicken and pork plate arrived 20min after my Pho. But to be fair the plate was good, chicken and pork was juicy and cooked well. You have to come up to the front to get water too btw.
food and service is good and fast
Amazing service, hard working staff that are friendly, Huge portions, authentic flavours, wow factor in all dishes, New menu items to keep you returning. Can t wait for their new location.
Nice food

Yam
Nice food
Great pho place in Scarborough.
Everything here was great! The food was delicious, the location was great and I felt like I was able to get help with everything I needed. Highly recommend
Tiny restaurant, small table, definitely not for 4 adults sitting together .... Soup taste is good but portion looks big but actually not as it is illusion by using a smaller bowl to trick you
This spot serves the best pho rich, flavorful broth, tender beef, and perfectly cooked noodles. Fresh toppings and friendly service make it a must-visit for Vietnamese food lovers
This is our go-to spot whenever we crave for Pho noodles. The broth is tasty - noodles are prepared just the way I like it - ambience is cool as well. It s no wonder why a lot of people eat here.
amazing food, good ambience, fast service.
The pho with marrow was amazing.
Perfect spot for cold weather.
Second time here, food here is really good. This is my new favourite pho spot. Vibe is cozy, too Found this place through social media and it did not disappoint! 10/10
Good food
best pho in scarbs, hands down
the tea was really good and the bone marrow pho was better than i expected
My go to pho spot
Highly Recommend this place. Service is good. Food is super good and love the ambiance. The best
The best!
Great service Kind staff Food
Satisfied my bun bo hue cravings. Loved the coffee too!
Some of the best pho I ve had outside of Vietnam! Helped convert my girlfriend into a believer after she had a bad negative experience with another pho shop in Toronto years ago; she s hooked. Very friendly staff who are doing their best to manage the volume of customers. We each ordered the Pho Dac Biet #1 with extra meat as well and underestimated the portion size. They re not skimping over here, the portions were massive! Had plenty to pack and take home for later as well. The bone marrow and broth were so rich and delightful, but not greasy and heavy at the same time. Executed perfectly. Keep me away from that pot of broth before I belly flop right into it! A true gem in Scarborough, take all my money.
