Came here with my mom and sis. Best place if you're craving something hot. Love their avocado shake and their pho rare beef 😋🍖 I totally recommend eating here with your family. Friendly service and great food! Best combo. The prices are great too!! 🫶🏻 Would totally come back here again <3

Food tastes 4 stars. Not the best in the city but it was pretty good. It was not a hearty thicker broth but more watery. But the taste was still there and we felt it faired better than poor pho restaurants that are truly very watery. The service was friendly. The atmosphere was truly a hole in the wall. Utensils felt a bit sticky. Portions were moderate. You cannot select sizing but is advertised as a large. The portions felt like a small to normal. Perhaps they adjust based on their adjustment, but wasn’t so fond of receiving a small portion.

Excellent food. The food taste excellent, good price, good service. This is one of the best vietnam restaurant I would strongly recommend. My friend order the soup noodle and the soup base is very good. Ginger tea taste is very fresh and is home made. The mint beef, pork and Spring roll is very good, especially the home made source is excellent.

This was my first visit. The Pho is extremely flavourful and fresh. I had not had a Spring Roll in years-because I always found them heavy. I decided to try again. The Spring Roll, although deep fried, was light and flaky-absolutely delicious. The owner was so friendly and went out of his way to give me a hot chili, as I mentioned I liked hot food. The atmosphere is funky and inviting. I 100% recommend and will pop by whenever in the neighborhood.

The food is fresh made, delicious, and made with love. Perfect customer service and the utmost care went into our meal like they were cooking for their own family. 10/10 I recommend. Also, make sure you ask for your meal extra spicy. The owner will make you cry.

Portion to price ratio is way off compared to any other pho restaurant in the city... and I assure you, Ive been to many! (2023 update: yup, the same. Small portions, not too good pho. There are far superior options elsewhere in the city. Too bad.)

I had Pho. It was southern Vietnam style pho. Broth and meat werent bad. The noodle pho smelled a bit like old dry noodle but I guess thats common for many Pho here in Canada. The food was good enough, like average. The restaurant was clean and service was quick and friendly. The price was reasonable.

I had a good experience here, but would not return. First off, service is amazing. Very friendly, attentive, and really goes beyond to make sure you are happy. They deserve a lot of praise. The food itself was good, but nothing stuck out or was better than my usual go-to Vietnamese/Pho restaurants. Atmosphere/decor were... as youd expect; not particularly nice, but its part of the experience! Prices were surprisingly high compared to most Viet/Pho places I go to, so value wasnt as good. I still had a good experience; ate well, and was treated great, but other Pho/Viet seem to do a better job. It should probably be a 3 star, but the service was so exceptional it carries a star of its own.

★★★

Food was good, service was basic but fast, atmosphere very basic but fine considering this is type of place where we go for an inexpensive bowl of noodles. But it wasnt inexpensive. A noodle bowl with tax and tip for $22 is too much for a quick casual lunch.

This is crazy pricey place I ever been in!!! We were 6 people and seated separately in two tables, they charged us $6 for tea plus 15% gratuity as party with no service, Phô portion was so small for $13, 6 small bowls of Phô came out $111.76 will never go back again

Just YUM. The passion for their dishes make this newly found spot a gem. If you love Pho, you have to give this place a try. The stock is so flavourful- we know that takes time. Mango salad is also a must-have. Fresh. Fresh. Fresh. They always ask how spicy you want the item prepared. Love that!! The owners are also a great chat if you dine- in.

Mediocre no flavour .not hot . Fresh rolls were not rolls just a container of lettuce and noodles with some torn rice paper. Spring rolls were cold, soggy and doughy. Sauces were just plain bad. Bland. So disappointing. Over-priced for mediocre offering.

Good place for pho. Got the chicken and beef pho and some green tea. Food was good and came out quickly. Restaurant looked alright and the service was quick and nice. Price was fair as well. Only reason I gave 4 out of 5 was because the garnishes that came with pho were not fresh looking with a bit of oxidation and browning. Other than that everything was good.

This is the only place we go for pho, my wife & I came here when we started dating, and then when we had our daughter wed bring her with us & the family that runs this place are so wonderful, they would give her fruit to snack on while we ate our meal. Our daughter is now almost 4 and she loves the spring rolls & the mango smoothie, I love the rare beef & my wife gets the shrimp broccoli. The food taste great, the atmosphere is second too none, they really make you feel welcome at Pho VP & go above and beyond to make sure you have a wonderful experience!

Ordered take out last night. Two sopls and a Pad Thai. Order was wrong when I picked it up. They fixed it pretty quick and mistakes do happen so not that big of a deal. What is a big deal is the price vs quality equation. Food was decent but not that price point decent. Two soups, one pad Thai and spring rolls came to $48 and change. For that price my socks should have been knocked off and I was still wearing them at the end of my meal.

Awesome little pho place in downtown Toronto! Short walk from the subway station although not in the PATH. I vaguely recognized the name of this restaurant as being somewhat hyped when it first opened, although thats clearly died down now. In my opinion though, this is one of those rare occasions when the food actually lived up to what was promoted. Pho Vistro is known for its MSG-free pho, made with healthy and fresh ingredients. And that is exactly what we got! Also, I was hugely relieved that concerns over the noodles or soup being bland were not warranted at all (perhaps I just prefer tastes on the lighter side?). Both my friend and I agreed that the food was very flavourful and delicious, while not overwhelming or coma inducing (important since we had to work afterwards). However, I would not recommend their rolls - these were dry and paled in comparison.

The other reviews of this restaraunt have to be fake. The owner tried to justify his high prices by stating he uses better ingredients. I failed to see that with the crappy chewy beef and low quality chicken thigh meat. Even the tofu in the cold wraps was wet and gross. This place looks like its been closed for a while and should have closed ages ago. Pho Huong on Dundas is 20x better. ive had Vietnamese at approx 12 dofferent places in Toronto. This is the worst by a landslide. Never again.

Located on Jane north of Bloor West, a little Pho shop; price is good, owner is nice but the broth can use some more tweaking.

I thought I had a great place found cause it was so tasty but as a strict vegetarian I expected a vegetarian broth since I clarified before coming here and again before ordering that I did not want to order soup if it was going to be a meat broth. after I finished the soup they told me it was a chicken broth. idiots. will not return.

The service was friendly but I sat myself down and waited 5mins before anyone came to take my order. It was Sunday at 2pm and there were only 2 other tables occupied. Luckily the food came quickly. The Pho Rare Beef needed more beef and lacked flavour. The Deep Fried Spring Rolls were handmade it seems and were quite good. Unfortunately they didnt bring the standard dipping sauce for it. Overall my experience was pleasant but not special. Ill probably try another place next time.
