Vietnamese and Chinese Food
I ordered the large beef ball phở as well as a mango bubble tea. I have been feeling under the weather and wanted some soup to make me feel better and it did. The broth was very flavorful and had a huge portion of noodles. I appreciated that they included a bag of sprouts, hoisin sauce, sriracha, sliced jalapeño, and a sliced lime. The mango tea was also great and was a big size too! They are also the only Vietnamese place in town open on Monday. Overall this was a perfect sick day meal.
Having had dozens of bowls of pho across Vietnam, and hundreds across Canada, the pho here isn’t what I’d call authentic. Nonetheless, it might be due to a generous sprinkling of msg, but the broth here is very very tasty. Also unlike a lot of other restaurants this place gives you the entire pallet of condiments to add to your soup, including a nice (non-sriracha) chilli sauce (they also have sriracha). Used to be Pho Fusion was my go-to Vernon pho spot, but it’s Pho Sate all the way now.
I recently tried “Pho Sate”, and unfortunately, my experience was quite disappointing. I had high expectations based on the reviews, but the food fell flat. I ordered the vermicelli bowl, and the meat was extremely hard and bland, the meat and vegetables, were under-seasoned. I was expecting vibrant, rich flavors, but instead, it felt like the dish was missing any seasoning or zest. I was really hoping for a more flavorful, “authentic” experience, but sadly, it didn’t live up to the hype." I don’t think this is an “authentic vietnamese” The presentation was fine, until you dig through it, there was A LOT OF RICE AND A SMALL PORTION OF MEAT IN THERE. I did not get my money’s worth. The service was fine, and the staff was polite, but the lack of flavor in the food made the meal feel like a letdown. Unfortunately, I don’t think I’ll be ordering from here again.
The vibe is awesome for a restaurant,the waitress are really kind as well as the owner of this restaurant.the food is really good for its price,if ur planing to visit there,the mango bubble tea is a must pick
The food was absolutely amazing!! I had it for dinner last night and it was such a wonderful experience!! The customer service was great, everyone was really friendly!! The food was delicious, I had the Veggie Pad Thai and that was absolutely delicious!! Everyone that I came with enjoyed their night!
This was eatery number ninety-six in Vernon. This was my first ever visit to Pho Sate. It is one of four Vietnamese restaurants in town. Fresh Lemongrass has always been my go-to Vietnamese restaurant as well as my parents. It's great that there's a place downtown. I was surprised how busy it was inside. I ordered the one vegetarian main dish on the menu--Tofu Pad Thai. As someone who visits SEA every year since 2019, my Tofu Pad Thai expectations are sky high like Cee-Lo. The noodles were a bit thinner than I expected, and it was missing that peanut sauce kick. However, I liked the lime flavour with the hot sauce bowl and the bowl of crumbs to add on. Again, I know I have eaten Pad Thai in Phuket literally hundreds of times so I know I will be nitpicking. It was still delicious. I paid $16.05 after tax. This place doesn't do table service so tipping is optional. Friendly staff. Great big portion of Tofu Pad Thai. I'm glad I gave this place a try after all of these years! 96 is done.
Super nice noodles soup. Dry Garlic Pork are crisp. Spring Roll is homemade. Nice clean set up. Very friendly staff. We love everything. Highly recommend 👌. Will be back for sure! So good👍
Ordered Special (#10) that includes tendon and tripe. Only 1 small piece of tripe and no visible tendon. Mostly well done beef and beef balls. Takeout served with meat already in the soup so was far overdone when I got home. No basil or lime included (got a wilted/dried piece of lemon though). Not worth the price at least for takeout. Maybe dine in is a better experience. Flavour was good. Salad rolls also tasted fine but fell apart and missing shrimp. 1-2 small pieces of shrimp per roll is not worth the $9 for 3 rolls. Next time I know to order meat on the side. Not usually needed but recommend here if you get takeout.
We have frequented this restaurant for seven years. It is clean, the customer service exceptional and the food is consistently outstanding; fresh, plentiful and very reasonably priced. Add this one to your list for sure.
Amazing!!!
Best pho in town! Great broth, fresh ingredients, and lots of options. Parking: Street parking can be more challenging during busy times. Food : 5/5 |
Nice place to have food! Talking about prices and portions are always great.
The spicy Pho is so good! Huge servings for a good price
Always delicious when I come hot tasty fast perfect. The curry dishes are amazing. And the soups are huge. Thank you for the best lunch
I go here all the time with my friend. It has a beautiful atmosphere and all the staff are incredibly friendly. Ive tried so many things but my favourite is their chicken pad thai. I literally crave this all the time.
The lunch was absolutely delicious, I reccomend eating the Sate chicken pho. Best Pho restaurant in town.
Nice place, excellent proprietor. Had a noodle bowl, good enough. Recommended.
This was my 1st time at Pho Sate and I have to say a real disappointment. The bubble tea was so sweet I had to bring it home and mix with milk and ice. It was clearly made from a powder and the pearls were hard and small. I had the prawn curry with vermicelli. There was a good number of prawns but the sauce was so salty I couldnt eat it and I had mixed it with the noodles. The broccoli tasted old and stale. Im used to Fresh Lemongrass which never fails but a friend and I decided to give this place a try. I dont think I will give this place another try as I said, too many disappointments across the board of what was ordered.
Not happy at all. Paid for parking. Came in, waited for a bit. Staff saw us and ignored just like we were not even there, only 1 table with customers in the restaurant at that time. Didnt even wanna try anything and walked out
The lady was cleaning the floor when we walked in, then brought us food without washing hands. She kept cleaning the floor when we ate and the smell of floor cleaner was so strong I couldn t even smell the food. The pho was not good at all, the noodles were too soft and the soup obviously used soup stock not homemade. Bean sprouts and limes were not fresh. The fried wontons had very little pork.
Disappointing Vietnamese food. Spring rolls appeared to be premade frozen Chinese style at a ridiculous price. Pork patty on the vermicelli was also premade frozen fast food. Soup tasted good.
Consistent, delicious food. Friendly service, fast!
Best Vietnamese menu in Vernon.
Another little Vernon gem. Owned by Golden Crown, best Chinese Food
Come on down new interior. Great food. And quick
The best shrimp wontan soup in Vernon! Tryed the curry beef and vegetables tonight, it was really good.
Best pho.
So yummy
Friendly staff and owners as soon as you walk in, then the food came out and oh my goodness is it ever good, I will definitely be coming back for more.
Holy wow, this place was a good find! I had the pork spring rolls and the chicken/egg vermicelli bowl. Huge portion and SO DELISH! The staff was also super friendly and very attentive! Highly recommend checking this place out!
Great pho, dare I say best in town, friendly cou.ter service. Dining room and ambiance leaves much to be desired.
We eat here often as the quality of the food & service exceed our expectations each time. All of their dishes are spectacular and the owner & staff are very welcoming!
There s no better Pho that you can get in Vernon !!
Stopped by on a whim and found the food to be delicious and the gentleman who was taking orders was beyond friendly. Absolutely will be coming back!
Divey. Excellent pho. Ver fast service.
Pho is excellent
Always love there soup and owner is very kind
Excellent meal. Will come again. Shrimp wonton soup was packed with shrimp wontons in a delicious broth. The Vietnamese noodle bowls had excellent flavor and the shredded beef and thin sliced chicke n were easy to mix in with noodles. Portions were great and flavors amazing. Cant recommend enough.
Heard they have great soups! However, we ordered appetizers.... wont do that again.
I was very pleasantly surprised. The pho was delicious. The portions were also very large. As a pho connoisseur, I highly recommend Pho Sate! Food
I got takeout last night and it was so so good that I went back for more tonight. The most satisfying delicious vegetarian dinner I ve had in a long time! My son agrees!
Brought take out here. It takes 15-20 min to prep the food during peak hours. The food was great and the portion is big. Paid Street parking available.
Best pho I have ever had from here to ottawa!stopped at so many places in between and this one takes first place in my mind the broth is amazing the meat is delicious and the service is great. lovely lady at the front and seasoned cooks in the back the taste and presentation says it all. 100% a must try
Love the food and the staff. My new fav. The chicken balls were perfect.
So delicious that we came back the next day !!! Ahahah Try their bubble tea, so yumy too, many flavors. The owners / family are lovely ! Thanks to them !
Great spot for a quick lunch, got the 16 and it was hot fresh and fast
Delicious soups!
Great value, super quick service and tasty food.
Our first time in the restaurant and we absolutely love it. Had the vermicelli noodle bowls with chicken and beef had the shrimp and the chicken salad rolls and of course some spring rolls. Some of the best Vietnamese food weve ever had.
Salad rolls were great!!!
It is not authentic Vietnamese pho but good enough :) server and owner were super kind and friendly .
The food is good, put cant eat there much.
Fast, consistent, top notch broth quality, amazing friendly, welcoming, family like service. Still affordable even during there rather expensive times. Cannot recommend this place enough, best broth in the Okanagan!
The food wasnt bad, but it was not what we expected and ordered. One dish was cold, for pho we only got less than a quarter of lime and few leafs of cilantro. We ordered pho sate, it was pretty good, but it did not tase like sate pho at all. Moreover there were no pearls in our bubble tea for which we asked. Currier was great, no complaints there.
Great pho, great staff, great price! We will be back.
Bomb! If you haven t tried it here, give it a shot. Friendly service. Ordered the chicken noodle soup with shrimp spring rolls. Good size portion with tasty broth and tender shredded chicken, and lots of it. Tasted homemade with quality ingredients.
Great little restaurant with authentic Vietnamese. Highly recommended
Good pho, large portion fast friendly service
Its always good in there. Service is good, foods good.
Best pho ever!!
Such a friendly people I had a lot of Vietnamese food before and this is definitely the best in Vernon
1 of the best pho place to go in Vernon!!!!! Only place me and my hubby would go or order take out when we wanna get Pho
Best place in Vernon
I always love going to Pho. Good service. Good food
My favourite Vietnamese place in Vernon! They give you really big portions and everything is delicious and all for a good price. The Pho is so good, the wonton soup comes with noodles (it might be my favourite), the pad Thai is delicious, and I love the lemongrass chicken with vermicelli noodles.
Best food in town
This restaurant serves authentic Vietnamese/ Asian cuisine, very delicious and service is exceptional. The owners have been in business in Vernon for many years, great people!
Really good pho
Super Delicious and very friendly staff!
Was ok
Best pho!! Excellent!!
The best pho in Vernon
We had the rare beef pho, curry chicken and veg, and vermicelli bowls. Everything was tasty!
Their salad rolls with shrimp are amazing, I also love the dry noodles and stir fries. Great little mom and pop shop.
I love pho Cssual dining Helps if you ate hungry
A tasty, fun surprise! The per-item price on apps was new to me. The size of the egg rolls were smaller than Im used to, but they were flavorful. The chicken curry with rice noodles was very good. The curry could have had a little more sauce, but the spice was neutral and the ratio of chicken to veggies was appropriate. The food arrived quickly and the staff was friendly. Would recommend for sure!
Best Pho in Vernon
Awesomely authentic!!
The owner was very helpful in suggesting different soups.
Everything was great, highly recomended
Absolutely delicious food, very healthy servings (which I love! - No leaving this place hungry)! Their lunch time server (Candace) must have given us what is the best customer service anywhere in town. 100% recommend.
Great pho! The food was excellent but most importantly, the server was just so kind and welcoming. LOVED IT!
The best wonton soup ever!!!!
Best soup in town. 10/10 I love coming here. Highly recommend if you love great food.
The soup is amazing.
Best pho in Vernon! So fast and delicious and the owner is very sweet
Delicious always
Ordered takeout due to covid. Delicious vermicelli bowl with spring rolls, vegetarian ham and shrimp. Friendly owner. Definitely will be back next time we are in Vernon.
Best Pho in the Okanagan!! What great people!
Very tasty food
I highly recommend this so traditional tasting restaurant big menu good prices very nice rare beef well done pho soup noodles so good !
If you are looking for elegant decor, dont come here. However,for awesome food at a very reasonable price,this is your place!
The Vegetable and Chicken soup is absolutely delicious!!! So much flavor and its really big portion. As an evacuee who was not home for almost a month ,that is exactly what I was craving for. Will be definitely back!!!Thank you
As compared to other pho places in Vernon its a bit pricy (about $2 more for a large bowl) and yet it was almost all noodles with very little protein, they did not provide lime or basil (instead they had lemon and very sad cilantro), and the broth was incredibly bland. Additionally, they did not check for covid vaccination.
Amazing quality food, large portions, excellent price, very nice staff, quaint environment. Stopped here after a rough road trip and the chicken soup warmed my soul. Will absolutely be back.
Absolutely delicious food with great portion sizes. The staff are friendly and quick and the restaurant is clean. 10/10 reccomend
Great food, huge portions, very friendly service.
One of the best Vietnamese restaurants weve been too. The food is delicious
I came here October 2020 for the first time cause a friend raved about it, and fell in love with their broth... So much so that we added this as our lunch spot every time we come back to Vernon. We came back again this year and yep, the broth is still amazing. Hidden gem in Vernon!
One of my favourite places in town! Definitely worth going here, awesome food, good prices, and great owners!
Good pho at reasonable price
Enjoyed the spicy beef Pho
Food has always been good here HOWEVER the lady server is quite awful.
We had chrispy chow mein noodles, vermicelli, spring rolls and salad rolls. It was fantastic.
Delicious, even the kids love it!
I ve tried all the pho in town and by far this is my favourite spot. Beef ball is my fave with extra broth and Thai basil.
Nice to be able to get out again and support the local businesses..after this crazy covid..the service was excellent and so was the food..the owner also thanked us for coming out...so make an effort to support our local restaurants..and this is one that should be on your list.
Always a fantastic bowl of Pho!! The best flavour and huge portion. Drive from Lake Country when ever I can just for the pho. Service is just as good as the food!! Thanks.
This place was so darn good!
Best pho in Vernon
Large portion of noodle, but not meat. The noodle is too soft, and easy to break, soup is good.
Generous portion, friendly owner and when you order large pho, it is certainly large! My wife and I were craving for some Vietnamese food and decide to pick up some from Pho Sate. It s a small joint in the downtown Vernon, abut the flavor is big! When we were deciding what to order, my wife was debating between a small or large pho, he honestly told us most ppl ordered small, it thinking about my wife s appetite we decided to go with large. When we got back to the hotel room and discover wow, there were a lot of food! After my wife were full, she was only on,y able to finish 1/3 of her food! My vermicelli dish was large with a huge pork chop and one spring roll and three prawns, and the portion was just right! Thank u again for the great food!
Highly recommend this hidden gem! Food was fresh and HOT! My husband and I agree we had the best won ton soup ever from Pho Satay! Spring rolls were were tasty and FRESH! We will definitely be back!!
Pho Sate is the real deal, run by an authentic Vietnamese couple! It is a hole-in-the-wall spot great for takeout as well as dine in, offering fast service. I ordered the #10 Special Beef Pho in Large size which came promptly with fresh bean sprouts, cilantro, a couple jalapeno rings and a small wedge of lime; however no Thai basil. There was several kinds of hot sauce available in a basket, including both chunky garlic chili and smooth sriracha versions. Unfortunately there was no Hoisin sauce however, only soy sauce; this and the basil would have earned the restaurant a full five stars.
Disgusting that why they make you pay in advance
Sorry, but the food was not good. Chicken Stir-fry was soggy & not fresh, like day old Chow Mein. Even the rice was wet. Was passing through & thought wed take a chance. Wont be going back.
Food was not very good. Pho broth was very plain, beansprouts were slimy and brown. Chicken stir fry was awful. Tasted like it was microwaved only a few very small pieces of broccoli that were limp and stale, spring rolls were small and greasy .. Will not be returning
Outstanding soups & service .. I m sure more is great but enjoy all the soups of all sorts.
The food came way to fast there was no quality to it ordered a chicken vermicelli noodles bowl and there was barely and chicken and less flavor wish I could rate no stars dont waste your money here
Great service..great food..
Hands down best Pho in Vernon, the price alone cant be beat! Love the coffee too :)
A favorite for us! Always amazing service.
This place is delicious and the prices are very reasonable! $10 for a large Pho.
We had the vermicelli. The food was good minus the hairs we found in it. Had a rude experience with the server. Not really table service. We had to stand up to order.
loooove the vermicelli bowl! so good, and a huuuuuuuuge serving for only $10.50.
Lovvvve
Best pho in town. Always consistant unlike the other places.
Number 11, rare beef = best pho in town! The owner is so friendly & the food is always ready in lightening speed.
Amazing Pho! Recently discovered this little gem with a friend, and it is my new favorite for Pho in Vernon! Try the #11
Fantastic food and wonderful customer service. We keep coming back!
My husband and I love coming here. The pho is so good, it s better than any other place we have tried in Vernon!
Definitely my favourite place for vietnamese food, I recommend the dry noodles with the dark sauce they have available on the table.
This a good place to eat. I enjoyed the food and there was excellent service.
Simply the best
Small neighborhood restaurant with good Vietnamese food.
Delicious. We stopped for a quick bite will travelling and found that the food was excellent.
Pho Sate has my favorite seafood dish!
This is a great little Vietnamese restaurant. They have a lot of tasty options. Its a great place if you have a special diet since there are a lot of gluten and dairy free dishes. They dont advertise that though. Try the vermicelli with porkchop. Its a very simple but delicious dish.
Tasty
I feel like i got ripped off! i asked for a large pho with extra beef. paid about $16 with a pop. when i got the soup, i noticed that the amount of beef in the soup could be considered what you would get for just a regular soup! even then, i noticed there was hardly no broth and it was mostly noodles that filled up the bowl! I would not return to this dive!
Excellent!! Never, EVER disappointed!
Good pho
Pho sate was not very spicy but the broth tasted amazing. Spring rolls are expensive, but crispy and tasty.
Salad rolls were tiny & spring rolls were horrible, looked like they were from Costco. Chicken Sate was good though
I really enjoyed this place. Very friendly service, great food, large portions, and good value. I had the pad thai, and enjoyed it a lot.
Absolutely the worst Pho ever!!! I ordered veggie spring rolls, definitely from frozen! Prawn salad wrap which they cut the prawn in half and gave 3 tiny little slices of prawn with refrigerator smelling noodles. On top of that I also got dry rice noodles with beef and fried onion. Haha I got dry noodles alright, with a pile of dry beef and 1 dried up onion slice. Do not waste your time!!!
Excellent pho soup.
really love the prawn/salad rolls with sauce! vermicelli bowl is very healthy and tasty as well. both filling and service is great too!
Allways good food fast service friendly clean and reasonably priced
Great food
Great tasting pho, quaint atmosphere
My new favorite place - pork wonton egg noodles is awesome! Best wontons I have ever had!
Good food. Quick service. A great place to grab a fast and tasty bowl of Pho.
Great food reasonably priced and fast service
Quality of the food was very good. Speed of service was exceptional. Portions for the price was the best I have had and I go to many Vietnamese restaurants in Alberta. Very friendly service! Nothing bad to say about this restaurant at all. You should try this one out!
Great place and service. The owner and staff are awesome. Cant beat this spot best place on Vernon.
Go away. Keep this place a secret.
Pho your sake, better eat here
Great portion size and delicious!
Very friendly and kind staff, and the food is always fantastic !!
I really, really enjoyed the the beef vermicelli bowl. The beef is cooked very well and the sauces are phenomenal. The guy at the till was very friendly and an awesome guy and I have nothing but good things to say about their amazing coffee, if you havent tried Vietnamese coffee I highly suggest coming here and giving it a try!
Good food good pricing
1 word, DELICIOUS ! The soup broth was just amazing and the bubble tea also delicious. We were 4 people and we all loved it ! Will be back on our next visit.
I always have Pho here. I like the broth, the generous rice noodles and the meat or veggie options. Great sauces to add to your soup too.
Good value....reminds me of places back in London....but cleaner...the dish was perfect
Came here while I was stopped at Vernon on my vacation. Friendly staff, portions are pretty big for the price, and it was delicious! I had the rare beef Pho. The noodles were a bit overcooked and softer than Id like but thats preference. All in all good value and taste!
Pho Sate served beef barbeque and pork spring rolls on rice vermicelli. I also had a large bowl of pho. Both dishes were alright. I was expecting a little bit more. They have got nothing on Big Bowl in Mississauga, Ontario.
Awesome vietnamese food loved it
The best pho place ever. The soup taste like real beef that has been boiled for a long time.r. Unfortunately it is in montana too far from Calgary. But if i lived close to this place I would definitely come back here every time i crave for it..
Great tasting food for great prices
I love this place. The nicest people work there and the food is delocious and very reasonably priced. Im pretty sure their pho will cure whatwver ailment you have. Definitely hangovers.
I ordered off of Skip the Dishes, i ordered some sea food dishes and a bubble tea, but they forgot the bubble tea. I called and spoke to a very friendly man, and he appologized and send out someone to deliver just my drink. And I appreciate that they were able to do it so quickly. The food and my bubble was amazing! Thank you
Worst Vietnamese food I ve ever had.
First time for lunch and the food was good.
So yummy! Good service and great prices. Best soup in Vernon. My son swears by the shrimp spring rolls. We love coming here for family meals- everything arrives quickly and consistently (which keeps the kiddos happy).
Good hot food, friendly service and good prices! The triple whammy!!
Delicious food and a great staff. One of my favourite restaurants in vernon
Great food
