Forgot to take a picture because I wasn't expecting much due to the 4.1 rating.

But man, this is like a hidden gem, much better than those with a 4.6 Google rating.

Ordered Pho, Chicken & Beef Vermicelli, and Fried dumplings. The Pho tasted good. The beef is really in it. The Vermicelli is quite good too, a little bit spicy for me but still good. The fried dumpling was cooked nicely too. Crunchy and savory.

Out of the 8 Vietnamese places we tried, I would rank this as between 1st and 3rd.

I recommend this store and will surely be back here.

Before I even finished ordering the old man tried to take my menu which is a good sign. The bun no hue was mediocre. The ingredients weren't half bad but the soup wasn't so flavourful. Spring rolls had a really thick skin and not filling forward.

Ordered online for take out. Fairy simple process. Guess it was my mistake but I should have asked for utensils as I had none. Luckily I was able to get some at my hotel. Noodles were quite soggy and overcooked but the broth was so good and rich. A little salty but man did it hit the spot. I really took my time to enjoy this. I was fighting a cold and this broth saved the day. Would highly recommend

Decent pho overall. The noodles were a bit soggy, and the broth lacked fragrance and depth of flavor. Bun Bo Hue was okay, a lot of shrimp paste used which I didn’t like as much.

Not my favorite, but it’s affordable.

I used to love this place when the original owner was present. Now it appears it's either his children or something but I never in my life have received spaghettini instead of vermicelli for my vermicelli bowl, (except for in a mall fast food Vietnamese place). On top of that there were more bean sprouts in my vermicelli bowl then vermicelli. I ordered a tarot bubble tea and ordered it with lychee jelly. The lychee jelly was sour and I'm assuming it was rotten. Both me and my daughter had a stomach ache after and we didn't even finish a third of it.

I was not impressed at all. And then upon paying the lady tried to get me to put my three salad rolls into the small tiny to-go container with the sauce container. Instead of giving me a regular container and she argued me

I left a horrible tip and I shouldn't have left a tip at all. I didn't really get served properly. I was ignored for quite a long time as the lady walked by me multiple times. I won't be going back here and this restaurant does not deserve four stars at all.

Also the hoisin sauce bottle label was worn out so I'm not sure if they are refilling the bottles, who knows if they're sanitizing them but they weren't brand new. And then I had to clean off Sriracha sauce that was on the tip of the bottle. Absolutely gross

We’ve been customers since 2023 when I first came to Calgary, and I highly recommend this Vietnamese restaurant. The staff are kind, accommodating, and always make sure customers are well taken care of.

The food is amazing—especially the special house dish, which is my favorite. Their spring rolls and seafood fried rice are also delicious. I love coming here every week, or at least twice a month!

I have tried this restaurant more than 5 time before giving it a review. I do not recommend it to anyone. Today I order 3 subs(different kinds) chicken fried rice with chicken and vegetables.

The subs were average as u'd find at any take out (over $10 per sub) . Noting special however the fried rice had NO Egg and barley any chicken. The rice felt like it was left over.

In the past I have dined in and ordered take out. Today was turally dispointing because I ordered a head and gave them time to correct themselves, however still dispointed.

Incredible food, a new go to late night spot for me for sure. I usually have trouble finishing a bowl of pho, but the broth was so delicious here I polished off the entire extra large bowl. Really good portion size as well, seemed like I got more beef than at most other places.

Went here during their business hours. The sign said open and the door was locked. Waited 15 minutes and called them like 10 times no response. Thanks for wasting your customer’s time.
