I have tried many items on the menu and they all have been delicious! Amazing soup! And tasty vermicelli bowls.
Consistently great food throughout the last decade of ordering from here.

Came here because pictures looked yummy and reviews were fantastic. First and last time. The pho is ok, nothing special taste like beef bouillon cube (beef & salt thats it). The bbq pork however was devastating. It clearly had been sitting there for awhile before ordering (barely warm, dry, stale, tough) also no lemon grass flavour at all? Even the rice wasn’t good, like how? Took two bites of my food and left.

Atnosphere: Although not luxurious, something about their atmosphere is very bright, welcoming and accommodating.
Order: Ordered large no. 9 (deluxe pho), and fried wonton.
Fried Wontons: Portion is very good (about 15 wontons), incredibly crunchy, not overly salty nor oily and it goes well with sauce. Solid 9. (Try with lemon, it's even better)
Large deluxe pho: Very clean taste but it is little bit blend (might need to boil the broth longer or add less water).
Solid 9/10. Cleanest pho restaurant in Calagry.

We have ordered from here for a long time, and we have loved it- however the last several times we have ordered the orders have been missing things and sometimes just flat out wrong. It’s so disappointing, we really loved this place but if we are spending $50 on dinner we would like to get the meals we pay for.

Love the satay soup and vermicelli bowls! I’m not vegetarian but their vegetarian spring rolls are my favourite!!!
First time visiting this place. The food felt authentic. I really like the selection.
It's now on my go back list next time I'm in town.

Came here on a Sunday for lunch when the family was craving for soup. It's in a tiny strip mall and the parking lot is quite small. Inside the restaurant is bright but not much in the way of decorations.While looking at the menu, one thing we noted is that the prices were a dollar or two more than other Vietnamese places. My wife ordered the Wonton Soup and she liked it. My kids shared the beefball noodle soup but what came was beefball and beef - not a big deal but there were only a few beefballs. I had the Vermicelli special and had a spring roll appetizer. It was pretty good. The portions were decent - probably in the mid-size range of most places.There were a few tables occupied but wasn't very busy. While it was find it's a little ways for us so probably won't be back.

The phõ was fantastic, with a proper consume bursting with flavour. I was not feeling well, so I asked for half the noodles they normally do. If I got half, the normal amount must be a mountain. The owner noticed me focussing on the broth, and was so kind as to pack up my leftover noodles with another serving of broth! This will definitely be my regular spot when I'm in Calgary.

I placed a pickup order today. I ordered a spring roll, but there was hair inside the spring roll. About two years ago, I left a review saying it was delicious but the service was bad, and I still gave it 5 stars. But from today, I can't go to this store
