Wow. A lot of 5 stars and a lot of one stars for Delicious Pho in the MNP Building in the heart of downtown Edmonton.
The space is well lit and attracts a lot of downtown worker traffic at lunch. It was busy. Clean.
The servers are friendly and helpful. Attentive.
But the food can only be described as ok. It's good. But in the city of Edmonton that's teeming with Vietnamese fare just north in Chinatown, this is not quite at that same level of excellence. However if you are downtown and need a quick Pho fix then this spot will do the trick.

Great place for a quick lunch downtown. Fast service (weekday lunchtimes at least), tasty food, and my priced, and somehow never crowded during events at the arena.

Went for an early dinner at around 5 pm on a Sunday evening as our usual restaurant was closed. Only two other customers were present at that time. We were greeted and immediately seated. A complementary pot of green tea was brought to our table. We ordered #59 on the menu - Tom yum chicken Pho. The large bowl of pho had plenty of noodles and chicken. The broth however only had a very small amount of tom yum flavor. We had to put some chili oil to make it spicy. On the side they served the usual bean sprouts, fresh basil leaves and some lemon. No napkins were provided and had to request twice for the napkins. Overall a 3 out of 5 for the pho. So far the best pho in Edmonton is at Than Than Noodle House.

The first spring roll I bite into had an actual piece of string in it - like a piece of yarn INSIDE the spring roll. The dipping sauce was solid - like gelatin or something. The pad Thai was not even edible it was so bad.

Great price, great food and great service. For once tipping made sense? Try the 50 or 51

Poor quality food, uneven food distribution system. Quality varies from shop to shop. The owner shouted at the staff in front of the customers

Given how solid the YEG Vietnamese food scene is, I left shocked how embarrassingly bad our lunch was here. The “Beef Pho Satay” was weak, flavourless and poorly made. The razor thin strips of beef were akin to small patches of overcooked leather. I ate the noodles - and left the broth and beef mostly untouched. Which is a rarity - as I typically leave no trace of pho satay given it’s one of my fav dishes. We also ordered iced coffees - HOW DO YOU MESS THIS UP? Both were undrinkable and didn’t filter properly - even after waiting 35 min for them to drip- and the staff, who avoided us our entire stay, could only offer more ice and were not interested in owning up to their abysmal effort to host us.
STAY AWAY.

Order red curry for delivery. It is advertised with bamboo and had NONE. Literally the only reason I ordered it. The chicken was overcooked. Tasteless like it had been boiled. Won't order from here again
Excellent service with fresh and tasty food. Vietnamese subs are not available at this location.

Came here for the first time. Was greeted as soon as we came through the door. We got seated and had tea brought to us. Food came out hot and was delicious! I ordered the 5 color vermicelli. Will be recommending anyone in the Kingsway area.In the picture, don't mind the 2/3 eaten spring roll. Delicious but very hot in temp.

We live 1 block away and have been wanting to try this place for awhile so we were looking forward to it. But we were really disappointed. Staff was rude Food was gross. Staff member walked through the restaurant, blew their nose and then touched the tables without washing his hands. Didn't feel very welcome from when we first walked in. Then when we complained it was an excuse that it was the chef who did that and not the waiter, then when we said that is even worse he said that nobody did that but we watched him. Will not go back here.
