Worst Vietnamese in Calgary!! Ordered take out today and I have never been so disappointed. Before arriving to pick up my food I placed an order with extra hoisin and the lady said she had added extra already, to my surprise, the extra was only one small sauce container half full. Asked for extra hoisin and hot sauce, got only one VERY small extra sauce container of each and paid $1.50 extra for another small sauce portion. It was very obvious all the sauces and even my fish oil was watered down. Food was also very very bland. My mom had the sub and there were more carrots than meat and the bread was stale. I honestly feel as though I just wasted my money and I would never recommend this place!! There are many other great Vietnamese places in Calgary, definitely avoid this one at all costs!!!

This location is constantly closed when it says they're open. They'll even accept skip orders for pick up, only to be closed when you arrive. It's happened multiple times.

I came at the afternoon and it was pretty empty. I was greeted right as I stepped in and was told to sit wherever we wanted. The food and customer service was good.

Very very bad quality of the food . very disappointed waste of money . Ordered the menu of chicken ,beef,shrimp with rice and spring rolls. Chicken was hard like cardboard beef was chewy and dry and the most important there was no shrimp. Never ever go that rice for king restaurant again actually it’s not rice for king it’s a rice for animals. Disgusting experience.

I am not sure if she is the owner but she was miserable. She got our order wrong and we told her nicely that we asked for Chicken not beef. She got my little son a spicy sate chicken instead. Whole order was wrong.My husband’s sub was so cold. Hopefully his chicken was cooked!Ridiculous customer service. And please don’t water down your sriracha sauce.Never going back.If you are working in a restaurant, having that super long nails are not hygienic at all.

This place has ok chicken curry, the chicken is an odd texture though. We went to sit down but it was like winter inside. They no longer have any Hoison sauce at the table and you have to pay $1.50 to get some. It cost $0.75 for a lime slice.I understand inflation but this was absurd.

Ordered pork subs to take for lunch a couple of weeks ago. Pork lacked flavour, actually seemed boiled and was full of chewy, inedible fat. Very minimal amount of meat once all the fat was removed. Carrots were the only other ingredient on the sub. Very boring. Bun was crispy & good though. The sub was wrapped with an open bottomed paper causing a giant mess. There are better sub places in the city.

The soup is bad on this location, there's no Cilantro at the side the soup it's not taste a pho soup, no star anise, no ginger just like taste a beef broth, the sizes of bowl of regular sizes it's almost the same the sizes of Extra large.I'm not recommended this restaurant on this location.Customer from January 1, 2023 around @4pm.
Pho is very very good I had a strawberry bubble tea with real fruit and it was amazing my partner had a taro one, I'm giving four stars because they did not use enough powder it tasted like ice. Their food is amazing but I've had the reoccurring issue where they don't put enough powder in their bubble tea if you get the powder one and their tapioca isn't very good it doesn't really taste like anything most taste like the brown sugar one but this one doesn't. To go there for a meal though I would definitely recommend it's amazing I just would not recommend their bubble tea personally. The waitress was also so pretty and very very nice (apparently her name is amy?)so their service is phenomenal and every location I've been in they have been so kind. My #1 Viet place atm (also they have the best spring rolls I've ever tasted they're amazing so crispy and very warm)
Parking: Great parking

The spring rolls were to die for. I’ve been to almost every Vietnamese place in Calgary and this place was by far the best place to get spring rolls. The restaurant was very clean and the staff were so so nice. The soup was very good as well but if you like spring rolls as much as me then this place is 100% the best. I’m what they call a spring roll connoisseur. Absolutely the best service ever.
Been going here for years tried to take my seven year old out to eat and they refused to offer her a half size order as they have absolute nothing on the menu for kids. Most adults don't eat a full size soup. Why should I be forced to buy that amount for my child. They should be more catering to all family's not just adults. Won't be back they lost my business was better when Sunny was actually running himself very disappointed
