Serving Sherwood Park area with great Vietnamese Food
Visited the Special Noodle House again today with my wife. This restaurant is likely the best place in Sherwood Park for food quality, value, and service. The menu provides a wide range of choices be it the pho, vermicelli, or meat and seafood dishes and all of them are delicious. Quantities are generous - you will be taking a box home. Given the cost of eating out today, it is a delight to visit an affordable restaurant with top quality food.
Just had beef satay soup picked up for take out. My MIL brought it to me and this place put the steaming hot soup into a plastic bag!! Then inside more plastic. A thin plastic cup with a lid. Burnt my hand cutting the nasty thing open to put into a bowl. So turned off by all the plastic and chemicals that are now leeched into my food. Went straight in the garbage. Never before have I ever seen this and I have picked up pho from a few places. Gross. Do better!! Get proper take out bowls. Never again.
Food was good service wasn’t three employees stood at the cashier, leaning back, staring out into the lobby with only myself and one other table. Well, no one came while I was eating and asked if I wanted more water or something to drink or anything else. It’s like they were too busy, relaxing to serve the customers that were there.
I recently ate at Special Noodle house and loved it! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with nice Vietnamese decor. The food was delicious - the Pho was rich and flavorful; and the fresh spring rolls were perfect. Price were reasonable, and portions were generous.
The food is SO GOOD! The satay pho is delicious, some of the best I’ve had. My partner and I love to order from here. When we order take out, it’s ready for pickup in 20minutes! The staff is kind. Definitely try it out. Lots of space to eat inside as well
It was our first time eating Vietnamese food. We ordered number 5 (rare beef noodle soup) and 17 ( chicken noodle soup). Both were delicious, with lots of different flavors which went well together. The sizes are good as well. I would definitely recommend this place to others.
BEST authentic Vietnamese restaurant ever. Definitely recommend any vermicelli or pho as I couldn't find them anywhere else nearly as good. Smoothies are made with fresh fruits. Nice and clean environment. Service is top-tier. My top go-to place for high quality food.
Great experience at Special Noodle House! The service was impeccable and it was a very clean and relaxing atmosphere. The food and drinks came out very quick as well. I had the mixed berry lemonade and the beef noodle soup. The ingredients were very fresh and the soup was delicious! Only complaint I have is there was too much ice in the drink. For $6.00 it seemed to be a bit pricy for only a few sips. Next time I’ll request less ice! Flavours were all spot on and the portions were very generous.
Big fan of this place, beef satay is awesome. Me and my family come here once or twice a month and have never been let dowm
My favourite comfort food place in sherwood park! The atmosphere is so cozy and private. The food is really good- my go to order is #2 Rare Beef Noodle Soup and the Salad rolls. I also love the dumplings and the spring rolls. Ill be honest the pad thai is really bad, but everything else I have tried over the past two years has been great! Service is good, I personally dont like overbearing waiters, so I appreaciate that non-chalant attitude. Highly reccomend if your looking for something to warm you up this winter!
Below average flavor. Nothing special. Nothing terrible but could be better.
Went here last night got spring rolls and number 1 pho. The pho was perfectly seasonEd the broth was amazing. The service was good as well as the interior. Would come back again
Best pho I ve had in a while in the Park. My usual was closed and decided to try based on reviews and am soo grateful we did. Called in for pickup, great customer service and beautiful restaurant. Super impressed with the beef cuts, zero fat unlike most other places lately broth was extra flavourful. Going for the satay next time!
Been a few times, always great!
Really cute place to go for a lunch date.
Our new favorite soup place!
Very mediocre food for the price they charge at this place. The service is the usual subpar service you expect at an asian restaurant. My experience makes me very doubtful of all these five star ratings. They are very misleading. They are either fake reviews or people dont know what good Vietnamese food tastes like. Avoid this place if you want good food.
We both got sick the next day
Excellent mango salad & 1 the best deep fried squid
My noodle bowl was fresh, full of flavour and delicious! Loved the atmosphere, will def eat here again when back in town.
Went for a dinner date with the wife and was 110% impressed by the food, service and cleanliness of the restaurant, highly recommended the seafood soup as it was very tasty and not as salty as some Vietnamese soups i have had in the past. Will definitely be returning to this neighborhood gem.
Awesome .
Surprisingly authentic which is hard to find in the Park. Their Pho Dac Biet even has tendon! (probably the only place in the Park that includes it). Their Bun Bo Hue is also very tasty! The best part is that theyre so close to my house :D
Good food good service
the food is great, the staff is very nice, everything about this restaurant is extremely impressive.
I mean its ok. The noodles were good and all just not up my alley I guess.
Ordered Pad Thai and Special Sizzlers. Felt the food was bland and not worth the $$.
Interestingly, weird... My wife and I had lunch at this place. I mean, pho was just ordinary pho just like other places, but!!! Pad Thai... honestly, it was ctrl+c & ctrl+v from Oodle noodle. Flavour and ingredients were exactly the same as oodle noodles. Service... not very friendly... restaurant was too dark inside... too expensive compared to other places.
Always so good! Went out of their way to help me pick it up more easily with my baby in the car too! Will keep returning. Thank you so much!
Had spring rolls and beef satay pho This was the most incredible bowls of pho Ive ever had. Food : 5/5
Pho Number 1 Special was the best pho I ve had in Edmonton. Can t wait to go back. The fried wontons, pho number 15 (beef satay) was delicious as well as the pad Thai. Very happy with the overall experience. Servers were friendly and quick.
Delicious clean friendly
Went here for the first time today and I was not disappointed. Delicious food, friendly staff, beautiful atmosphere and plenty of gluten free options. Will definitely be coming back again. Dietary restrictions: So many options for gluten free food.
Excellent noodle soup
Been twice now and both times were incredible. Very good service and everything was fresh and very tasty.
The food is delicious, clean, the restaurant service is very good and friendly
This place is amazing. We eat here every time we go to Sherwood park! Awesome food!
Vegetarian options: Not much vegetarian options. Food
We keep coming back to Special Noodle House for their delicious fresh food enjoyed by the whole family. Most recently we ordered beef satay, chicken fried rice, two colours vermicelli bowl, and well done beef noodle soup. Kid-friendliness: My kids loved their dishes and there was plenty for leftovers.
Been coming here for a while now. Hands down best Bun Bo Hue in Sherwood Park I would say.
Boba is amazing
Always fresh and tasty food.
Favourite place to get salad rolls and vermicelli. Staple in my diet :)
Food is good but that music (synthesized organ) they play over and over again is horrible making it hard to enjoy the food.
Excellent broth in the pho - hope they keep it up! 2023-03-03 Update. The broth is still excellent. This time I received a tiny portion of meat (4 little slices in a large rare beef pho). I shouldnt need to have a protein shake after paying $15.50 for lunch. Maybe Ill try again in a couple months, but get the meatball variant. Music here is pretty bad. No hyperbole, they were playing lullabies.
The best vietnamese food in Sherwood Park! The vermicelli bowls and bun bo hue are delicious.
This is a fantastic Vietnamese restaurant and to have this gem in Sherwood Park is a privilege. The satay soup is a must try along with the dumplings and salad rolls. I have been living in Edmonton and going to Pho Haun Paster for their satay soup but Special Noodle House satay soup is as good or better. Please support this local business you will not be disappointed.
Fantastic food, great service. Will keep coming back!
My updated review... Love this place even more now. They do an amazing Bun Bo Hue, its a spicy broth with pork and beef, exploding with flavour. Ill post pictures soon. And their taro bubble teas are the best. Weve ordered vermicelli bowls, theyre excellent too. If you like Vietnamese food, do yourself a favor and come eat here. Had their house special pho and it was great. The only place in Sherwood Park in a long time that has tripe and tendon for the real pho lover. Good atmosphere and friendly staff. If you love pho, this is the best option in Sherwood Park.
Wow. Best pho in town! The spring rolls were fresh and the broth was so flavorful.
They have good food. However, I wanted a small order of spring rolls (2) and salad rolls (2) for lunch but you cant get small orders for take out. I didnt want to buy 4 of each so it was a bit annoying. Overall, they have good food but an odd policy.
This place is ridiculously phenomenal. I have tried many places throughout my life and for me, nothing compares. I had the salad rolls and dumplings Wow!! I would absolutely recommend this place. Overall, 10-10 on my experience. Thank you!!!
Delicious food and an amazing calm atmosphere highlight this restaurant. The food came out fresh, delicious and absolutely stunning. We will be back!! Loved it.
First time here and the Spicy Hue noodle soup was flavourfull soup. A very relaxed place with courteous staff and owner! Definetly give it a try sometime.
I would ve given 0 stars except the satay beef noodle saved it for a couple of stars. The wonton soup was very underwhelming with little to no taste to the broth. When we mentioned it to our server it was not acknowledged or no suggestions made. Would not recommend.
Always great food!
Delicious, beautiful food. Friendly staff. Spacious and airy space. Overall great
Got the special noodle soup , very generous with everything you want . Not too spicy , love it !! Got through skip
Food is average, even a little bland, but reasonable value for the price. Staff were very inflexible when it came to substitutions to the vermicelli bowls, almost unreasonably so.
Always a favorite for dine in or take out in the park. Havent had an item on the menu we didnt like. Always consistent and great service.
Beef Sate is amazing!
Special Noodle House is the best. There beef sauté soup, green onion cakes, coconut bubble tea and vermicelli bowls are perfect. Thank you for always having delicious food. Recommended dishes
Nothing special here, bland food, barely passable servers and dark ugly ambiance. The worst of the Vietnamese options in Sherwood Park.
Delicious
An absolute gem in Sherwood Park, food and service is on point, friendly staff and our Favourite Beef Satay Soup brings comfort on those chilly days!
I love this restaurent! The servers are great! Grilled pork salad rolls are a must. Love every dish I have tried. My go-to is the Bún Bò Hu .
Good Vietnamese restaurant in Sherwood park. It is a to go place for my lunch break. My favorite dish is 6 colours. Food
Some of the best Asian food I have had since my holiday in Thailand and the Banthia restaurant closed. Take out time was fast and ready when they said it would. Will definitely go back again.
My favorite food is Ph . It s one of the specialties in Vietnamese cuisine.
The food was amazing and the service was friendly. highly recommend
I recommend that you come here, have the green curry with coconut rice and whatever protein you like. You can thank me later.
My absolute favorite Pho place in Edmonton/Sherwood Park area for sure! Been there maybe 10 times. satisfied 100% every visit. I live in Summerside Edmonton, so its quite a bit of drive but damn its worth it.
Ordered Beef Satay Soup for pick up, probably the best Satay broth I have ever had! Super impressed with the to-go packaging as well. Will definitely be ordering from here again!
Very good Satay Beef Noodle Soup. 10/10 would recommend!
This place is fabulous. Everything Ive had is delicious especially the salad rolls! theyre the best salad rolls Ive ever had anywhere. The staff are all so friendly as well . I tell everyone I know about it.
Love this place! Dine in or takeout the food is always fast, fresh and delicious. A five dish takeout order is ready in 15min. And you won t leave hungry. Highly recommend.
Easily the best pho in the Edmonton area. My wife and I have tried multiple Viet restaurants but have not found one that has pho as good as Special Noodle House!
Underwhelming food and expensive. Bun 2 Mau had very little beef and a teaspoon of peanuts - the majority of the dish was made up of vermicelli; overall, a very bland meal. The Bo Hoac Xao Xa Ot was not spicey at all...bland with an odd chemical flavor...again...more onion and peppers than beef - so disappointing!! The coconut rice tasted like plain basmati. Not impressed. To be fair, the spring rolls were very good!
Special Noodle House is a average looking restaurant that is in an unassuming strip mall. I ordered a two colours vermicelli bowl with pork and spring rolls. I must say the spring rolls and the pork were both very good and flavorful. The service was generally pretty prompt and quick. We got in and out in 35 minutes which is great for the lunch crowd.
Possibly the best Pho place I ve been to. Servers aren t annoying you with stupid questions, food was ready in a couple of minutes (I mean it wasn t so busy, still) Broth tastes really good, just a great experience overall. 100% would recommend.
Delicious smell
Nice food
The food is very nice!!!!!!!
Nice food, diverse menu. Highly recommended.
I ve been to over 30 different pho places and I ve got to stop and appreciate this one, my favourite place by far, I d give them a 10/5 star if I could. Highly recommend to anyone that s craving Pho, definitely worth the drive if you live out in Edmonton
Amazing food great prices owner is great. I would suggest the mango salad or the vermicelli taste like heaven
Always the best Vietnamese noodles in Sherwood Park!
One of my favourites Lots of room here as well, if youre going with a large group.
Great vermicelli bowls and curry
Incredible. One of the better Vietnamese places in and around Edmonton. Satay beef soup and vermicelli bowls are delicious and good sized portions.
We have a good friend who had the best Vietnamese restaurant in Edmonton but he retired and we searched for one that could compare. Special noodle come very close and has become our new favourite. The place is very clean and the staff are so nice.
Good food good service seemed to be quite popular
Ive been there a few times. Always enjoy the food. Service is quick and friendly.
Food (beef and greens) was ok, a bit too salty. Very clean and staff was great!
Special shout out to SPECIAL NOODLE HOUSE. My husband and I love spicy food and truly miss Chinese salt and pepper squid that we were accustomed to in Calgary. Low and behold Special Noodle House had deep fried squid on their menu. We asked our server about the dish and if they could make it spicy for us. Not only did she say yes but also knew the dish we were talking about. REMEMBER, this is a Vietnese restaurant. It was absolutely FABULOUS. No need to drive to Calgary for our favourite Chinese dish. Goes without saying, the service was top notch. This place us FABULOUS. They aldo have the best bubble tea and soups!
Family run and the food is always delicious!! My favourite spot in the park for top tier Vietnamese comfort food
Ordered the 4 colors vermicelli noodle dish (meatball, prawn, beef and spring roll). Dish arrived and it had 1 piece prawn and HALF a meatball plus one spring roll and a descent amount of beef... for close to $20, I expect a bit more than one prawn and half meatball for variety... was just sad. Other dishes were very heavy on fillers (rice, noodles, broth) and VERY short on protein (even when ordering and paying for extra meat in one dish, was still very little) Food tasted good but very dissapointed in the volume of protein for price.
My favorite place in the park for Vietnamese, i almost always get a beef satay noodle soup which is so so good. The green onion cakes and gyoza here are also really good and their sweet chili sauce is great too. Really nice family restaurant I get food here often for takeout, portions are generous too. Overall love this place the servers I find are a bit shy but the food here is great and the bubble tea is good too.
Terrific food.
Really enjoy. Great noodles
Awesome little low key spot, great portion sizes, tasty pho, and great Vietnamese coffee.
The food here was absolutely amazing, specifically the seafood pad Thai and the mango bubble tea. Soothing zen atmosphere due to great music. And the service was excellent.
Excellent Vietnamese cuisine in a relaxed modern surrounding. Good value and quality, yes you can get both. Good for families or anyone who likes good food.
I ordered noodle soup no. 18 and the mild spiceness is perfection.. . My husband ordered no 1. which is the special noodle soup and he likes it too.It is worth the money..Would definitely order here again.
I will be coming back again, very good
Very attentive servers. Food and drinks take a bit long to get but if you know that going in and your there to relax its not an issue. We both had the Special Noodle Soup. Loads of beef and noodles. I added vegetables to mine and my husband wished he had. We also enjoyed the fresh mango bubble tea with tapioca and the triple berry lemonade. Definitely tasty! We will be back.
The restaurant looks pretty normal, but the food was really awesome. Super fresh, very tasty definitely will visit again. We ordered ginger beef, rare beef soup, onion cake, stir fry shrimps
Excellent food! So fresh and potions are a good size. The service was great. The restaurant is spacious, clean. We really enjoyed it and will definitely return to try some of the other delicious looking looking dishes!
Vietnamese noodle house. Clean and spacious. The are using disposable printed menus in restaurant or you can use the QR code to view on the net. Had spring rolls, salad rolls and the bun bue hue. Bun bue hue was good, a bit on the light side but flavourful. Salad rolls a good size but the spring rolls a tad small for the money but all tasty. Staff attentive and good. I recommend and will return if in neighborhood.
Okay food. Staff are like robots. CHILLI oil sauce is terrible.
Very friendly staff! I had #21 - great portion size, fish sauce was excellent poured it all over my noodles. Delicious! The spring rolls were good - I ve had better but definitely a good place to eat in Sherwood Park.
The Pad Thai was amazing. Flavourful taste and noodles were cooked perfectly. Service was excellent! Limited menu but food is well prepared.
Excellent service and food quality. A must try restaurant.
Amazing food, fresh, flavorful, generous portions, good value, friendly service. Looking forward to coming back!
My go-to for pho in Sherwood Park. The bun bo hue is delicious too!
By far, this is the best vietnamese restaurant in Sherwood Park I ve known. Really good and authentic vietnamese food. Pho broth is very tasty and grilled pork chop is well marinated.
Best Beef Satay Soup I have had in the Edmonton area.
Food was delicious! Love the salad rolls and the beef satay soup! Thank you very much
First time eating from here tonite and will definitely be back! We had the Rare Beef Satay Pho based on recommendations and glad we did just enough spice to make it interesting without overpowering. The kids absolutely LOVED the shrimp salad rolls! The beef and meatball pho was really good (but the satay won the night!) Not sure I d do the ginger beef again, the sauce was a little bland and quite thin, but it s going to be different everywhere. Overall we are extremely happy and have a couple of fairly fussy kids that ended the meal completely full. Will be back!
Nice place with good food and service
Great experience at Noodle house. It s cozy, relaxing and the food is tasty. Highly recommend it! Strongly recommend the Vietnamese coffee (cold or hot)
Exceptional service and delicious food!! A lovely experience all around!
Great Foods, Excellent Services, new Vietnamese Restaurant in Sherwood Park Edmonton, will be back soon..
Fast service, great food! Family friendly, will come again!
Delicious food, big portions and great service!!! We will be back for sure
This is the best place in Sherwood park for authentic Vietnamese food. There pho is amazing and home made the right way. There vermicelli is also top notch. I ve been here a few times and they have been consistently good. I don t understand why people go to taste of Vietnam. Special Noodle house is far better. Very comparable to going downtown 97street for Vietnamese.
Really great food.
Food is great and excellent customer service. Would recommend this place :)
Great spot and the food was great, will be back to try more soup!
Went in for take out the other day, and while waiting was offered water and then asked if we wanted to try the complementary dessert for Valentines day while we waited. We said sure, and they brought it out with green tea! They didnt have to do that, AND it was absolutely delicious. They went above and beyond. We got our food, and again, it was to die for. Will keep coming back to this little gem in Sherwood Park. The staff and atmosphere is AH-MAZING.
We ordered the sweet and sour seafood pho and a vermicelli dish, the pho was above average with a nice broth and some squid (although slightly rubbery) shrimp, crab meat and meatballs (unsure which in a seafood dish but they weren t too bad) the Vermicelli dish was good but like a usual one it s mostly vermicelli with small portions of vegetables and meat. I will be back to try out other kinds of pho because it was great. Went back again, tried the two colours vermicelli everything was great! Will be back!
The food was excellent. We had a beef satay soup and lemongrass chicken. Portions were very generous.
The best bowl of pho Ive ever had, been twice and both times staff was very friendly and welcoming. Service is great, food is delicious!
Absolutely love this place. Their pan fried dumplings are the best weve had ever. The service is awesome and the food is probably the best Vietnamese weve had...ever. We visit our share of Vietnamese joints, and promise you...thats an accolade to be proud of! Do yourself a favor and treat yourself/your family to this place!
Delicious food and great prices
So good! Pho is delicious as well as their bubble tea. This place is a must try
AUTHENTIC. A must try for sure, if you like Vietnamese food. From the Pho noodles, to the 6 color vermicelli dish, all delicious. The staff was on point with service and friendliness; especially in this day and age . Decor reminded me of the old country. Best bang for your buck. I will definitely be back for more.
Excellent service, and really good food, recommended deep fry squid, and hue style spicy beef noodle soup!!!
A place to have tradition authentic Vietnamese food and beverage. great food good price and a clean environment.
The best Asia food in Sherwood park with special drinks . Welcoming customer service
Well now.... Heres a place everyone can enjoy! Prompt friendly service and the food was oh-so-nummy! Stop in for a visit, try one of the vermicelli classics or the fried rice...., you will not be disappointed!
We discovered Special Noodle House while in Sherwood Park with a craving for authentic Vietnamese food. We didnt want Oodle Noodle chain-style food, we wanted the real thing, and this place did not disappoint on any level. The decor is tasteful, the restaurant is spacious and clean, the staff are friendly and attentive, and the food is out of this world. We tried a pho dish, a vermicelli dish, and fried rice. All were outstanding -- fresh and perfectly seasoned! We were also impressed by how reasonable the prices were. We cant wait to return and explore more of the menu -- this place is a gem, well worth the trip to Sherwood Park for the food alone!
Canada s best Pho and bubble tea can be found here! Great portion sizes, great variety, very friendly service.
Been going back here for a while. Foods are great and staffs are friendly. Place is clean as well. Meatballs noodle soup is a must try and so with the fresh shrimp salad roll.
Excellent Pho. Very tasty broth, and the portion size is pretty much on par with everyone else. Also have had the spring rolls which are very good. Family members had bubble tea and said it was very good.
Really great and truly SPECIAL. I wasnt expecting the portions to be as generous and filling as they were for the prices. Really great place to start getting into Asian cuisine. The decor was amazing as well, top notch. Im looking forward to coming back very soon. I would suggest the green onion cakes to any potential customer. Generous serving. And a rice plate for those just getting into Vietnamese food. The pork chops are AMAZING
Food itself is amazing!! Portions are quite large however; noticed the price for appetizers are quite high.
Nice and quiet, great food, friendly staff!
Just finished dinner with my husband. We ordered fried rice, a noodle soup and a chicken with cashews dish along with other food and drink items. The food was delish! The cleanless of the place is spectacular! Everything was spotless! Phenomenal! Keep up the good work. We for certain be back to eat there.
Love the variety of meats for the pho. Portions sizes are amazing, large is Large! Green onion cakes are delicious too.
I feel badly leaving a negative review, but the pho Ga was tasteless. Maybe it was an off night as other reviews raved about this place so we tried it as somewhere different from our usual pho place. Bun bo hue was good, pho Ga noodles were undercooked and the broth had zero taste. The spring rolls were overdone. We wont order from here again. Sorry :(
Order deep fried squid and pad Thai. The deep fried squid was decent if a bit too greasy. The pad Thai was very disappointing. Tasted more like a yellow curry. Chicken pieces were tiny and stringy and had a Mushy consistency. Will avoid in the future.
Everything is so fresh And the dumplings are awesome
absolute best pho in sherwood park and probably all of Edmonton too. dont waste your time going anywhere else.
Great value for your money
THE FOOD HERE IS AMAZING! There so many varieties in food! I personally always get some pho and green onion cakes. HOWEVER, there are NO KIDS PORTIONS for the pho (unless they added some, I havent been there for a couple of months), so if you have kids that like pho, you have to split the soup up, into different bowls.
First time ordering from here and couldnt believe how fresh and tasty the food was. Will definitely be ordering from here again.
Great
I ordered Bon Bo Hui for $14 or 16( I forgot) the taste is ok, but not surprised me. The amount of noodles and meats are good enough for me. Price is ok for their bowl size
Excellent food. The beef satay is great! What impressed me the most is the great sanitization procedures they re following during Covid. As soon as a customer left a booth or table, they d immediately run over and wipe everything down!
Wonderful flavors, and very fresh ingredients. I always enjoy their food. Very friendly family too!
Great place!!! Soup was awsome and had tones of meat. Great value.
need a renovation food contents not enough ,ordered the sea food pho
So unbelievably impressed. Came here today as our usual pho place was closed but SNH might work it s way into our Vietnamese rotation. What a a gem here is Sherwood Park! Broth is aromatic and fragrant, tons of delicious tender beef and noodles cooked to perfection, what more could you ask for? Fantastic job Special Noodle House, looking forward to trying some of your other menu items
Spectacular! We just finished a fabulous meal that included Chicken Pad Thai, Ginger Beef rice bowl, Spring rolls, and the Wonton soup. Our order would easily feed 5 people. Our meal was take out, and everything hot and professionally packaged. The freshness of every dish was evident, and the tastes were amazing. I wish this restaurant very well. We will be back.
Closes before posted times. Disappointed
Great Pho soup on a cold day and excellent spring rolls!!! Definitely coming back!
Great prices and portioning! I prefer their flavour vs Delicious Pho. Definitely recommended!
