Tried the Bun Bo Hue and the Sate Pho, and I love the sate pho here! It reminds me of the pho broth that my aunt made. They also have a lot of other good food option that I would definitely try out! Was recommended to me by a friend who lives in the area, this restaurant is my absolute first pick whenever I want some homey and authentic Vietnamese soup noodles.

We came to Dragon’s Boat just after they opened at 11 AM and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience from the start. We were the only ones there, yet the women's washroom was already very dirty, clearly not cleaned before opening. The dining area floor was also dirty, which raises serious concerns about the overall hygiene of the restaurant. If this is what’s visible to customers, I can’t imagine the condition of the kitchen.
As for the food, it was okay...we ordered the crab noodle soup and well-done pho. Both were soggy...the sate beef sub was tough and difficult to chew. Sub was cold. The bean sprouts were clearly not fresh and were starting to turn black.
Between the poor cleanliness and the subpar food, I would not recommend this place and won’t be returning.

This was the worst food we have yet to eat. The vermicelli bowl had barely any veggies and had no flavour. The shrimp was supposed to be grilled garlic butter and they were cold like they took them out of a shrimp ring and threw them on the noodles, absolutely gross. The fried pork rolls were still raw wrapper in the center, and the pork salad rolls one had no pork in it at all and all three had burst open and spilled in the container. Overall dont recommend in the slightest.

Really disappointing. Picked up order 30mins before close. Missing half of the toppings on the vermicelli, no meat on the ribs for the pho, zero flavour. Hoisin they gave was expired. Very very disappointing for the price. Go somewhere else.

No idea how this place has good reviews. The food is not like from a normal vietnamese restaurant; its different. Like everything was off. Spring rolls tasted off and were overcooked. The noodle dish's noodles were like. 2 inches long (broken up). The sub was packed with veggies vs meat.
Would definitely not go back.

I ordered the spring rolls. It’s a shame that they were so disappointing.
I’ll start with the good. The flavor of the peanut sauce was great and the ingredients were fresh. The service was excellent as well.
As for the bad, as you can see from my pic I got something shaped more like a potato than a spring roll. It looks like my poor spring rolls aren’t spared from shrinkflation and lost an inch or two in length. Portion sizes aside, they were so loosely wrapped that it fell apart after the first bite. The shrink wrap wasn’t properly separating the rolls and the bottom rolls stuck to each other. And since they were so loose they started coming apart. It was a mess to eat.
It all sounds nitpicky but it’s such a shame when something so simple isn’t executed well. Its like a deli messing up a BLT. I wouldn’t call this an authentic experience.

The soups here are very good, tonight I tried the garlic egg noodles and it was terrible. The noodles were not egg noodles at all, they were Shanghai noodles, the whole dish was so beige and the chicken was barely there, and half of it was grisly and cartilage. Super disappointing because I saw photos in reviews and they looked nothing like what I recieved.

Great place to stop for lunch. Big fan of the sate. BBH isn't as spicy as I'd prefer, so perhaps more people unaccustomed to spice can enjoy it.
Parking is a breeze, and service is friendly and swift.

Super nice people but the food was not great. The pho was bland and they put a weird sauce on the pork for the vermicelli. Pork was dried out and I'm sure was cooked several days before
