Que Ling Vietnamese Cuisine in Toronto

Amazing restaurant, very authentic and very delicious. Extremely fortunate to have this hidden gem in my neighbourhood.

lovely Pho and crispy fried rolls. Pho real :)

Best pho ever in Toronto! Amazing atmosphere, great food, comfy vibes.

Wonderful food and even better people serving it.

THE best bun bo hue and pho in the city. Ive tried BBH at other places including Tien Thanh, Linh, Anh Vu, 90, and even the dried version at Vit Beo and can confidently say that this is the best. Thank you to Nuit & Jeff Regulars and @dishedtoronto for the mention Dietary restrictions: Surprisingly well aware of allergies

Nice to see Viet clientele you know the fair is going to be world class

Msg on steroids. Made me nauseous and dizzy after

Cute little restaurant with some of the best pho Ive ever had!! Definitely recommend.

The portion is great. The taste is authentic and delicious.

Tax included. The pho is not authentic. For authentic pho I rather go somewhere else. I love their chilli oil, but it doesnt match to put on your pho. Food

the most delicious ever!

Decent pho...a homy place.

Taste good for house style noodles in soup @@@ yummy Food

Not a place to dine for the atmosphere (which is Authentic Vietnamese Diner) but the soup is superb. The broth is heavenly, which is essential to good PHO. I always pop in for lunch whenever I m nearby.

Pretty average pho. The broth tasted okay but did not taste refreshing or authentic. It was not comforting to see a giant bag of MSG by the stairs to the washroom afterwards, makes you wonder how much they put in the food. Plus side is that it is very cheap at $14 a bowel

I come here once a week, it s good

One of the best in town for banh cuon, Bun bo Hue, must visit

This place is great! They have excellent food and the people are so kind. The price is so affordable and the food portion is HUGE!

Very delicious pho , cash only

Were regulars in this restaurant and usually go atleast once a week. They hands down have the best pho broth in the city. Definitely recommend to everyone. They also have great Vietnamese iced coffee and spring rolls.

Dont tell anyone that this is the best restaurant in the city by millions of light years.

This place is definitely a hidden gem in Toronto, I ve been in search of the most authentic Vietnamese since I ve come home, and this is the closest place I could find to the real deal. If you re disappointed by the spot or give it anything less than five stars, it s probably a strong indicator that you have no idea what the hell you re talking about. Lol. Edit: great place but has gone down hill quite a bit in terms of quality of meat. Think I had my last bun bo hue here, great run guys thanks for all the delicious meals through the years but this foodie is moving on unfortunately.

Come for the Bun Bo Hue stay for the Banh Cuon

great prices, friendly staff, CASH ONLY. i usually get the snack foods wrapped in banana leaf from here (i forget what theyre called) theres a meat one and a veg one!

This is the best, love bun rieu, banh cuon, non-spicy Hue beef noodle soup, pay cash tax free

This place used to be 5 stars all around but something has changed within the past year. The only excellent item is the rice noodle rolls (bun cun). The pho broth is now really salty and oily, as it tastes like they cut corners. The spring roll was re-fried in previously used oil ( you can taste the difference). I hope things change as this restaurant has been an staple in the community.

I ve been coming here since last year for Banh Cuon! It s the best one so far I ve had in the city. Their Pho is also really good! Delicious and fresh!

Probably one of my fav Vietnamese resto in the area. The soup base is rich and brothy, and the noodles are perfectly done.

Love the banh cuon here! Its hard to find restaurants that make banh cuon, much less make it well! I would highly recommend this place. Its a small restaurant but the service is always friendly and efficient.

Phonomenal

My favourite pho place in Toronto by far!

No frills Vietnamese restaurant. Service is average at best however food is great with reasonable prices. It s worth a visit if you re in the area.

Wow! This is a gem pho Vietnamese restaurant in the East End (Riverside). - Best chicken pho in Toronto, the broth is so tasty, the meat is fresh, the noodles perfectly cooked - It includes all the traditional garnishments - Its affordable, the large one costs $15 (including taxes). Its CASH ONLY - Hot tea as courtesy - Very friendly staff and cozy espace - Many other delicious dishes from the Vietnamese cuisine This is a perfect example of dont judge a book by its cover, so dont skip giving it a try because of its simple exterior/interior

Had the pho and the rice spring rolls. The pho broth had strong star anise aroma and for some reason it think it s missing the beef flavour in a way. Still a solid bowl of pho though. The spring rolls, wasn t what I had in mind. It s quite interesting compared to the normal spring rolls I usually have at other places. The sauce was the one that ties the flavour together for the rolls personally. Solid place.

Their Banh Cuon is THE BEST! From texture to filling and their fish sauce. Everything here is actually really tasty and authentic plus super affordable. Only negative thing about this place is that it s very small and not much seating.

Delicious & authentic. Banh cuon was a great value Food

Their Bun Bo Hue is the best one I ve had in Toronto so far (though the broth is a bit too sweet for the original dish but the aromatic, the mam ruoc don t overwhelm the other flavor of the dish. The Vietnamese coffee on the other hand was not as good as expected, the coffee tastes diluted (may be it was intentionally done so more people can have it), there wasn t any condensed milk flavor in the drink. Good for a beginner to try it out for the first time.

The only place in East Downtown Toronto that sell Banh Cuon. It was tasty but it could be a lot better if they served it hot, and for a L banh cuon, i personally think its a bit small. If you order it a as take out and warm it up at home, you would enjoy it a lot more. In general we had a good experience, the ladies were very nice, service was quick. The bill was very reasonable and came up to a 58$ total for 2 L banh cuon, 1 bbq pork vermicelli, 2 coffee and 1 calamansi soda

If you want to go eat at your Vietnamese friends house this is the place. The Pho is flavorful and hot. The noodles are small and soft and the prices are perfect for this economy. My new favorite Pho place on the east side.

What an incredible testament to tradition and flavor! This charming mom-and-pop establishment, cherished since my parent s time, holds a special place in my heart, and its no wonder why it serves up the best pho in all of Toronto! The simplicity of the broth is its secret weapon, packed with flavor that keeps you coming back for more. And the fact that its a hidden gem for many Torontonians just adds to its allure. Heres to many more generations enjoying this culinary treasure!

Their pho is soooo good! Fair pricing and generous portions

Best Viet in TO.

Great Vietnamese cuisine place in the neighbourhood that s been around for a long time. We had their Pho Dac Biet and Banh Cuon, which were delicious. Our go to for our pho cravings for take out as well! Decor is a bit outdated, but it adds to their charm and character.

Crazy big portion, tasty. Remember to bring cash!

My children love it! Every week we come, we sit at the same table and make the same order. The service is fast, very friendly and the food is very delicious.

Been to this place long time ago. The pho was pretty good in my memory. Disappointed this time. Way too much mag. Food

Ordered beef pho, the beef and soup taste good, the noodle itself is ok, would love it to be a bit thicker. Wouldn t recommend chicken pho though, the soup is too salty. We ordered rice rolls as well, unique texture. Would recommend if you wanna try a good authentic Vietnamese food and the price is very reasonable as well!

Great Vietnam food

Nice family style restaurant! Tasty? Check. Fast? Check. Good portions? Check. Cheap? Check. (Its cash only but also tax included!) What more could you ask for?

This hidden gem serves authentic, delicious food! Very fast and friendly service too.

I asked for a dish that makes this place different than the other pho places, and the waiter recommended the house special pho. It tasted good but not as unique as expected. I also had their rice roll which was decent. I asked the handsome guy in the store if he had any recommendations for something out of the ordinary, so he said he would recommend house special pho... After trying it, it really didn t seem to be anything out of the ordinary But the taste is good, and the rice rolls are very different from Cantonese-style rice rolls; Some other snacks seem to be very unique. The lady in the store was very friendly, as if I was a regular customer who had been there many times. I will probably give it a try if I pass by nearby in the future.

Food and smoothies are delicious. Highly recommend the steamed rice roll for appetizer

One of a kind mom/pop neighborhood gem. Menu price reasonable for authentic food.

Very cosy little restaurant and their pho soup has a unique flavour compared to other similar restaurants in the city. Nice portion sizes. Nice having a good Vietnamese restaurant in Broadview Chinatown again.

Some of the best Pho I have ever had, my go to place in Toronto. Their drinks (crushed lime with ice) is also to die for.

Dont overlook this place! Just around the corner from Gerrard. Their banh cuon is my fav! The bun bo hue was great too. This family-run restaurant is always busy and has excellent service. My dad loves this place

I LOVE the vibes here even more authentic than you ll find in West Chinatown. Watching the aunties prep their chillis and herbs made it feel so homey!!! The Bahn Cuon was incredible and I ll be back for it!!!!

Best pho in the area.

Great little place we found for some homey Vietnamese food! Ordered the bbq pork with spring rolls (vermicelli bowl). Flavours were on point. Spring rolls were crispy. Service was also very good. Friendly staff.

Best Vietnamese restaurant in Toronto, very authentic.

It s probably one of the best Pho in town and I love the intimate feel of the place. Nothing fancy, just good food. The people who work here are gems. So friendly and wanting you to enjoy.

Decent pho. Rice rolls good.

This is my go to local Pho restaurant, humble family run restaurant nothing fancy but never disappoint. Taste is always consistent and on point. My recommendations are #1 Banh cuon thit, #3 House special Pho, # Rare beef Pho, #14 Mince crab soup. Local eat here at breakfast and lunch so it will get busy.

Fed my pho craving and was very satisfied. Soup is so tasty and you get a lot for what you pay for. This place is worth it. Its a cash only place. Will be going back to this place for sure.

Great food but the atmosphere is pretty chaotic and crowded inside.

Open for dinner on Christmas day! I recommend #25. CASH ONLY!

The pho here was genuinely one of the best I ve had with its perfect balance of savoury notes with a touch of sweetness. The grilled pork and rice dish was delicious as well. I have no complaints on the food. I wish I could have it everyday. I also ordered the iced coffee which I would caution others who may be more sensitive to caffeine since it was very strong. I wanted to give this restaurant a 5 stars since the pho was one of the best I ve had. However, the server was quite unwelcoming and abrupt which made my experience less enjoyable.

One of the best pho places in the city. A small place and can get busy. The place only accepts cash. Our go to pho place in east China Town.

Cozy Vietnamese restaurant. Quick service, good portion, seating is very tight tho.

Small family run restaurant with limited seating, and cash only. Not very accessible for strollers or wheelchairs. We ordered beef and chicken pho, duck pho and an order of spring rolls. Overall the broth was great, but we found the dishes to be a bit salty, and didn t love the thicker rice noodles in the duck pho. The springs rolls were also quite small, especially for the price.

Charming Spot, Delicious Pho, Cash Only The restaurant has a vintage feel with flavorful pho served in big bowls, accompanied by lots of fresh basil. The place is a bit worn, but it adds character. Cash only a simple, unique experience.

One of the best phos in town. Great food & atmosphere

Just go here. Do it. Its worth it.

Their food was good and its amall family home business. Portion is fair and price is fair too.

Great authentic Vietnamese food

Good good CAsh only

Bottomline: This is a hidden east-end gem. Highly recommended their pho. This place was recommended to me by a Vietnamese friend. Their pho is not greasy and has a lot of depth and flavour. Their hours are a bit short though so its better to come here for lunch. The place is quiet small so be prepared to line up during busy hours.

Great neighbourhood locale, with friendly staff, quick service and tasty food. Will be back.

We got the bamboo duck vermicelli and the Hue style of egg noodles which are super good! Never seen a restaurant having egg noodle option for the usual bun bo Hue, and they do have the famous bun bo Hue as well! They have a small menu but cover both staples and special Viet dishes. Restaurant is small and cozy but service is super fast and the ladies are so friendly. You can also get some Viet snacks like Viet sausage, pork buns (banh bao) and others. Will come back for many other times. P/s: it s in Chinatown East so you can also go shopping before/after :)

I ordered 2 party tray of banh cuon on Saturday at 12pm for a party at 1pm. I had a friend pick it up for me that day and they delivered it to us. When we received it, I smelt something sourish from the banh cuon and it came from the meat that they used to make it. My mother in law called them to tell them and they denied that their meat was not fresh and didnt offer anything back to us. We spent approximately $250 and we had to throw it all out. Will never come back here again. Some guest did eat it and had a stomach ache afterwards.

the very tasty bun rieu in town

You come here for the food. Overall good vietfood. Their specialty is the rice rolls with pork aka Bánh cu n. Super good. Ive tried Vermicelli and rice plates there, and they are average. I have also tried their Bún bò Hu (spicy noodle soup), and that was good.

Excellent, authentic bun bo Hue, pho, bahn cuon and pork chop w egg on rice. My favourite spot for Vietnamese cuisine. The owner and his staff are absolutely great people too. Id give a 10 star review if I could.

Best Pho I have ever had! Better than in Vietnam

Some of the best Vietnamese in the city. The chicken photo, banh cuon, and bun bo hue were all excellent. We used to come here years ago and it always been excellent.

Incredible food, warm service. Ive never had a bad meal here!

This rice rolls of banh Cuon from this place was soooo good, I could just eat the dough without stuffing all day? You enter this small East Chinatown vietamese restaurant on Sunday morning, you see a couple of solo senior Asian ladies all eating this plate of banhcuon. Then you better order the same plate! It was soft, but still bouncy, thin but not too thin, fresh, very delightful to chew. It was so good that I would think it will cure Sunday hangover instantly. Yet, too bad that I was not crazy about Bon Bo Hue and Pho much. Broth was not right and blood cube did not taste too fresh. Sticky rice and mungbean steamed in lotus leaves were interesting just because when I bought it, I asked the lady what was in it, I did not really understand her. I really did not know what to expect inside.

If you re looking for simple good Pho, this is the place to you go. Don t ask for anything fancy because you won t get it.

They have the best Ph in Toronto! This place is such a hidden gem with many authentic Viet dishes and snacks. Their ch chiên is way better than the store bought one

This restaurant is a gem in east Chinatown/Riverdale area. Some of my favourites here: bun rieu (#14), the vermicelli with bbq pork sausage (#25), banh cuon (#1) and their big steamed baos you can get to-go for $3ea! Their food is excellent, service is fast, prices are good. Cash only. highly recommend!

Honestly the best Viet food in town. The Bánh Cuôn is juicy and flavourful... a great balance.

Cash only. Service is lacking but delicious nonetheless.

My favorite Pho place. Im a huge fan of pho this family ran business makes the best pho period not just in Toronto.

Best pho in the city. game changer.

The taste is good. Worth the visit.

Hidden Gem, literally hidden from the main street. Very easy to miss, but if you do find this place,youll be delighted with delicious Vietnamese food! Highly recommend Please to the owner... please add FRIED TOFU in your menu, then Ill give you 6 stars!

Decent food. Banh cuon is a must get! Small but a little hard to get service.. Food

Their BBH is very good. Not too sweet, deep umami in the broth, just spicy enough. CASH ONLY fyi.

Tasty noodle soup! Kept me full for 3 hours as they give a lot of beef, onions, noodles, and bean sprouts! Worth the price. :)

One of the best pho I ve had!

My favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Toronto, pork chop on rice is a must. Staffs and owner are super nice and accommodating!

The best pho I ve had and friendly service. Big take out portions.

Been ordering take out here for years. Always good

Excellent and fast. Only takes cash.

I came all the way from california where there is an abundance of good vietnamese food. This one here is comparable to the top restauraunts there . The owner was very nice and the food was superb. You have to come and try the banh cuon, which is what they are known for here. Overall, an amazing experience and I can t recommend this place enough.

Amazing food

Best banh coun in Toronto - Bar none!! Other dishes are average. Everyone orders the banh coun dish. Close on weird days. I think on Tues and because family owned and operated, random holidays and vacations, they are closed. Closed super early, 7pm. Youre not there by 6:30pm, then youre getting it to go and eating on top of your cars trunk. Cash only, so that is annoying.

Food has declined in taste and quality and overpriced. Too much sugar and MSG. Has become sloppier. If you want a quick fix its ok. Not for real quality

Great family style pho restaurant. Highly recommend.

Don t be fooled that side streets restaurants are no good. Que Ling Vietnamese restaurant makes the finest bánh cu n in the whole GTA. Not just that, their soup noodles varieties will surprise you with their house made soup base. Hey, don t forget to ask them if any Vietnamese dessert is available to order after your meal.

We had the rare beef & Pho + BBQ meat, sausage, spring roll w/ vermicelli and they re so yumm! Prices are amazing compared to regular restaurants. We paid in cash :) Will definitely be back!

Theres a reason why this place has outlasted every other business in East Chinatown. Modest pricing, all the vietnamese food comforts. Also one of the few places in Toronto that does banh cuon properly

Where do all these positive reviews come from? Was I eating in another restaurant? I don t think so! I had the Que Ling Special Rice Noodles in Soup. I would ve gotten the same satisfaction from a package of Mr. Noodle.

Great food and authentic pho. You come here for the food and nothing else. They are cash only, which is inconvenient if you dont know about it in advance.

Small family run pho place that always takes us to our happy place. We really enjoy their broth. For a small shop that doesn t try very hard to sell themselves, they do really well. They draw in a lot of repeat business. Something about the humble restaurant, but yet a very tasty bowl of pho has people coming back. We have visited a number of times and would recommend it if you re looking for a casual bowl of pho. No bells and whistles.

Great hole in the wall for viet food. Rare beef on my pho was sliced thicker than the average viet spot which was a treat.

One of the best pho in town

Very consistent .. and tasty family run!

Came for the Bánh Cu n and it did not disappoint! The texture is perfect. Prices here are great and the portions are generous. Food

You be of the best authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Toronto!!

Small family run restaurant- traditional Vietnamese food. Great soup base - must try the Rice Rolls (I always get extra sauce)

Really good food! Great value as well. The comlimentry tea restaurant owner provides were chilled on a hot day which I was pleasantly surprised!

My parents are regulars since I was a child. Now that Im older and live separately from my parents, I have become a regular. Great food and owners are super friendly. Staff are always nice. Quality is never compromised. Super consistent. Its a locals gem .

Very tasty food, good service and cheap price. I really recommend to visit this restaurant. Vegetarian options: Lots of choices for vegetarians

CASH ONLY. You can also e-transfer money if in a bind. Closed on Tuesdays. For the small special pho (#3) and large rare beef and tendon pho (#9) and an order of crispy spring rolls, the total bill was $34 with taxes in. The special pho consist of rare beef, tendon and tripe. This place used have the best pho Ive had, compared to the pho I had in Hanoi, Vietnam. However this time, the broth was more salty than usual and partner found their bowl had less meat and too much tendon (chewey) as filler. Hope thats not the case next time. The spring rolls were tasty. Also had their viet iced coffee $6+tx reg size and its strong. Its a quaint little place with a small menu; just the right amount of authenticity. Parking: Theres both GreenP street and lot parking just around the corner.

This place deserves all the hype and then some. Worth the detour. The picked lemon drink is amazing

Amazing pho, but more importantly, really great duck noodle soup (Ive been coming back here multiple times specifically for it). Definitely recommend a stop here if you are in the area!

Came here with a friend for lunch. I ordered pho and he ordered bun bo hue. We were both very impressed with the quality of the meat in both our soups. The meat was cut and cooked perfectly. Ive never had meat from a pho restaurant with such great texture and flavour. Another positive point is that the portions were very large for the prices. Downsides: The restaurant isnt very clean; the server seated my friend and I at a table meant for 4 people, and half of the table was covered in dirty dishes from previous customers. I wouldve preferred it if the server cleared all the dishes before seating us. The table also felt a little sticky. The servers were curt and not very friendly.

Budget friendly Vietnamese food. Order the bun ba hue noodle, you won t regret it! Was it down with a cafe su da.

Food was great. The noodle actually had taste on it. Service was great. Highly recommend if you are almost near downtown

Very nice rare beef Pho. It has a bit more fat in the meat then other places which can be tastier. They speak Mandarin Cantonese and Vietnamese. I feel like its the better pho in the area.

We always enjoy their steamed rice roll. Noodles are fine but no longer fantastic. Also prices have gone up so much and make them less competitive than other pho restaurants. We used to love their Vietnamese coffee but quality and taste are no longer the same as their old times.

Banh cuon so good!

This is the best hand-made rice roll I have ever eaten in the Greater Toronto Area

I love it here, the broth is phenomenal.

Finding quick and free parking can be tricky. Recommend you park at the Green P parking lot nearby or at the school across the street (if you can). There are a limited amount of tables and seats, so be prepared to wait or take to-go. Service is good. Workers are able to speak English, Vietnamese, and Chinese. Menu prices have included taxes, which is fantastic. The food itself is very good and is offered in generous amounts. Their buns and other to-go items are very tasty. Would recommend their bao. The restrooms are located in the basement, but the ceiling is quite low going downstairs, so keep your head down. Would recommend this store if you are in the area.

amazing food. that s all you need to know! cash only.

So much flavour in that pho ! The bang cuon is a must try. Asides from not having small plastic chairs at the tables, it felt very much like eating in Ho Chi Minh City. Dine in to get the full experience. Cash only.

Actually the best pho I ve had in a long time! Cantonese cooks . Portion size is huge

Come here for the pho.

CASH ONLY and they accept EMT. Tucked away on a side street by East Chinatown, this is a hidden gem for delicious Vietnamese steamed rice rolls (banh cuon). We arrived on a Saturday afternoon at 12PM and luckily got seated for 2 immediately. This place is quite small, so be prepared to wait. Their banh always hits the spot with a thin rice roll and fair amount of stuffing. We also ordered their pho and I think the spices are a little overwhelming, so its just OK. Highly recommend for their banh cuon and would come back.

Our favourite banh cuon place! The bun bo hue here is also always very good! Cash only.

Having tried almost all of the neighbourhood pho spots, Que Ling remains my favourite. Their broths are rich and flavourful, their meats fresh, their portions generous, and their service quick. Love the bun bo hue, banh cuon, and pho ga the most, but everything is tasty. Cash only, but they take e-transfer.

Great food and good service. This is a hole in the wall Vietnamese restaurant. Full flavour and a great selection. As with typical hole in the wall great Asian restaurants you are coming here strictly for the food which is outstanding!

The Phö is so good!!!

Dropped by for a lunch. Hidden around the corner. Neat place. Large bowl of signature pho was delicious and satisfying in the winter. Cash only so beaware! Food is served quick. Will come again to try their vermicelli and Banh Cuon.
