“Theres only 1 server at that time we came at their restaurant, we didn’t get the essential stuff we need right away. Also, we didnt get the milk tea, but it was ticked off from the bill. Food was great, taste authentic, specially their Pho and spring rolls. One thing about their chowmein, its too sweet.“

“There aren’t enough words for how incredible the food is. Its only competition is the welcoming and wonderful service. Everyone is so nice and eager to please, they’re quick & the food is un-be-lieve-able! Every time my boyfriend eats the Singapore fried noodles he murmurs “this is so good”. As a vegetarian myself, menus are usually limited, however the veggie options here are various and so freaking delicious. Limiting myself to going here once a week is a challenge!“

“My friend and I were headed home from Whistler, and were tired of driving. It was dark, and we needed to find a great bowl of Pho. What we found at Pho Spot was even better than imagined. I had a vegan pho with added tofu, and he had traditional chicken, Pho Ga. Both were delicious and plentiful; veggies a plenty, and the strips of chicken were tender and fresh. The staff were very very friendly and gracious. We will remember to come here after every hike; in any season, and I will remember to bring my friends!“

“Very small restaurant but charming. The chicken pho broth and noodles (i could tell the latter was freshly-made) were both good. Broth had a great flavour but i could tell it was mostly the meat doing the heavy lifting.
The quality of the chicken was not that great... kind of chewy and stringy. If the other elements like the noodles and broth went as great, it'd be a 3 star or below.
Salad rolls were generous but lacked veggies. Great vermicelli noodles and decently good sauce as well.“

“The broth was so light and aromatic and with such a delicate flavour. It was a nice change of pace from all the salty stuff I had been eating lately. For only 12 dollars is an absolute value. I need to come back later and try some other stuff!“

“Finally got here. Nothing but good things. Place was swamped. Still got seated within 15 minutes. Staff were friendly and on top of it all! Food came fast, hot, and delicious. Definitely be back and highly recommend.“

“This is my family's go-to place for pho. Even whenever I have relatives or friends visit me from other countries, I always take them as part of a food experience to try this amazing pho, or their wings, or banh-mi. I think we've been going here quite regularly for the last 5 years or so, this place is a hidden gem!“

“It was my girlfriend and I’s second time coming in. We had the pleasure of being served by Lam. Super nice service. I had the B&D Special Pho with Marrows and my girlfriend had the grilled pork chop with rice. We also ordered the chili fish oil chicken wings to share. All 10/10 food!! Super filling. Definitely our go-to Viet restaurant.“

“First time trying this hidden gem. I can’t believe I knew never knew about this place earlier.
Everything was unbelievably amazing. You can go ahead and bring your non-vegan friends, cause they will be fooled by the meats, cause it taste like the real thing.
We did a very big takeout order for 2.. about10 dishes because we want to try as many as possible. Big shout out to Darryl and his mom for staying late for our bigger order and throughout the chaos they forgot the bao buns so when I called, he was gracious enough to come drive out and deliver it for us w some extra treats.
If you’ve never tried this place do yourself a favour and try it immediately. You will not be disappointed. Heads up tomorrow’s the last day operating.. they’re going on vacation for two weeks.!!!“

“The pho here is DELICIOUS. I was looking for a place to eat at downtown in this cold and rainy weather, and I stumbled across this hidden gem! I ordered a bowl of Pho, and might I say, it was the best bowl of pho EVER!! The warm rich broth really warmed me up and the my server was also very polite :) The portion is very generous with a fair price. This restaurant will definitely be my go-to viet restaurant from now on.“

“I like this restaurant. I’m Chinese, but I’ve been to lots of pho restaurants, and have previously lived in Calgary, which has lots of pho restaurants. I thought the pho was excellent, they have this coconut special pho which I’ve never had before in any other restaurant, which I thought was excellent, hits with a hint of lime. overall, a solid pho place I would come again.“

“We were trying to go to the PhoGoodness next door and bewilderingly they close at 8pm. So as we were famished we found a Vietnamese restaurant right next door. We were blown away how rich and authentic their food tasted. The salad rolls, spring rolls and banh mi were amazing. One criticism would be the combo portions were a bit small. I am intrigued by how good their food was and will be back to try their other pho!“

“When it comes to comfort food Kim Son became an instant classic the moment I took a bite. I ate with a big group and everyone’s food and drinks were so well done and delicious. The menu is small yet curated so whatever you decide will sure quench your thirst for authentic viet food. Don’t let the location of it being in a food court fool you, the food is definitely restaurant quality.
When it comes to authentic viet food who does it better than a mom and pop shop selling food they have been refining for years. This is for sure a recommendation I would give to anyone looking for a hearty meal that leaves you satisfied :)
Thank you Kim Son for the amazing food! We will be back“

“Had the Pho Satay. Pretty on point. Generous amount of noodles that were cooked al dente. Been to a few pho restaurants where the noodles just break up apart, but not here. Would I have liked more rare beef? Perhaps. Maybe a little bit more basil...I only say this because it is at the $21 total price not including tip. The broth is phenomenal - the peanut spice mixture into the beef broth is top tier! The balance is just perfect. The flavour alone would probably make you think twice about going to a Japanese ramen spot and I'm a die hard ramen fan.
Service is excellent. I should probably add that it's refreshing to know that there is a restaurant that doesn't serve tap water. This place actually has CLEAN PURIFIED WATER. It makes a big difference for me anyways.
Chill vibes and cool atmosphere. Nothing to complain.“

“Wow! What a surprise! My girlfriend and I wondered over to this place after a massage, I was unsure at first due to the location. Once we ordered are food, I could tell the quality was top notch. This place is a hidden gem. I ordered the lemongrass chicken pho and my girlfriend got the beef stew. Who ever is in that kitchen is a true chef. This is the best pho I have ever had. The chicken came on the side and it was amazing. The beef pulled apart with the fork. Spices were rich and a perfect blend. Veggies were fresh, meat was top quality. Don’t miss out, get in there! I wish we weren’t in a rush. Pricing is perfect for the portion you get.“

“Hai Chi Em in Vancouver serves up really good Vietnamese cuisine. Tried their beef rib pho, pomelo salad, chicken wings, mini pancakes, salad roll and chicken vermicelli noodles.
Food was really good, salad tasted fresh and that chili oil has a kick to it.
Definitely try if you’re craving Vietnamese food.“

“This Vietnamese restaurant gave me a really good first impression. The dining environment is clean and comfortable, not too crowded or noisy, so it’s a nice place to sit down, relax, and enjoy a meal. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming, which really adds to the overall experience.
We ordered the lemongrass grilled chicken with rice. The portion of chicken was quite generous, but for my personal taste, I felt that the lemongrass aroma could have been a bit stronger. The seasoning was also on the saltier side, and the chicken was slightly dry, so it felt like it lost a bit of juiciness, which was a little disappointing. But overall, the rice and side vegetables paired well together.
We also had the tomato braised beef pho. The soup was a bit sweet for my taste, which I think might just be the restaurant’s style. Personally, I prefer a broth that’s a little more savory or balanced between sour and sweet. However, the beef itself was really delicious very tender and soft, almost melting in your mouth. I really enjoyed that part of the dish, and the ingredients tasted fresh overall.
All of these comments are just based on my own personal taste and preferences. It doesn’t mean the food is bad at all, and I’m sure many people might really enjoy these flavors. Since the environment and service were both great, I would still be happy to come back again next time and try some of their other dishes. Who knows, I might find something that suits my taste even better.“

“I visited Pho Maxima Restaurant because I had been craving authentic Vietnamese food, and it was a great choice. The moment I walked in, I noticed it was a small and casual place, not fancy but very welcoming. The vibe felt like a neighbourhood favourite where locals come back again and again.
I ordered a bowl of pho with beef brisket and rice noodles, and it was rich and comforting. The broth was fragrant with warm notes of star anise and cinnamon, and it hit the spot on a chilly day. The noodles were cooked well and there was a generous amount in the bowl.“

“The Pandan Iced Coffee is the perfect balance of coffee and nutty, velvety pandan flavour. I’ve tried a few different places now, and this is by far my favorite one. If you’re someone who likes a fun sweet drink, this is for you. Give up Starbucks and come here.“

“It’s mostly vegan with 3 non-vegan items specifically marked as Non-Vegan. Alas, HappyCow won’t let me give 5 stars for that reason. Tried the Vegan Chicken Salad roll, which was satisfying & healthy. Also sampled the Vegan Citrus Spare Rib Baguette, which was satisfying too (4/5) They should get credit for making their marinated vegan proteins in-house. We love supporting family-owned vegan-forward establishments, especially in busy tourist areas! Updated from previous review on 2026-04-05“

“I have visited this spot with very friendly service and delicious food a handful of times and never been disappointed. I tried doing a takeout of their soursop smoothie and while it is very good, $7.90 (with tax) seems steep for the size of the drink. Will continue to visit but will skip on the smoothies for better value items.“
