50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Etobicoke

“Mekong River in Toronto is one of those rare places that still understands the basic concept of feeding a human being properly. Not with some trendy little plate of disappointment, not with a “modern twist” that ruins everything, but with real food that shows up hot, flavorful, and actually worth leaving your house for.

First of all, the menu is huge. It’s Vietnamese, but it also dips into Thai and Chinese, because why the hell not? It’s like the kitchen looked at borders and said, “Yeah, we’re not doing that tonight.” Perfect for groups too, because nobody can ever agree on anything anymore. One person wants pho, one wants stir-fry, one wants something “light,” which is code for “I hate joy.” This place handles all of them.

Now the pho. Let’s talk about the pho. That broth tastes like it’s been simmering since the Cold War. Deep, rich, full of flavour, like someone actually put effort into it instead of dumping powder into hot water and calling it cuisine. You take one sip and your whole body goes, “Ohhh… so this is what comfort feels like.”

The portions are generous too. Not that fake generous where you get a mountain of rice and three molecules of meat. I mean real generous. You leave full, happy, and slightly ashamed, which is exactly how a good meal should end.

Service is friendly, the vibe is relaxed, and the food actually shows up tasting like somebody in the back gives a damn.

One more thing. Ask about the item that’s not on the menu called The JC Special. If you know, you know. If you don’t, you’re about to. Mekong River is solid. Go hungry. Leave quiet. That’s the sign you ate something good.“

“It was actually my first time trying Vietnamese pho, customer service were grate. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, They were patient while explaining the menu and made sure everything was perfect throughout my visit. You can tell they truly care about their customers and take pride in their restaurant.“

“For testy and verity items. Nice and friendly hospitality.“

“Food is great, you can tell they use fresh ingredients. The vegetarian options (which is all I get) are very tasty as the tofu is well-prepared. The iced coffee is quite sweet, too much for my liking, but the other drinks I’ve tried have been pretty good. Overall a great spot for lunch and maybe even a light early dinner (they close somewhat early).“

“This is my favourite place! I always order P10 - Vegan Pho and the vegan crispy spring rolls. The food is always delicious. The staff are friendly. I order from Uber eats often as well and it's the same quality, lots of veggies/tofu and noodles.“

“I love Pho Metro! The food is absolutely delicious every time and the service is quick and friendly. Everything is fresh and portion sizes are extremely generous and filling. My wife is addicted to their tea, it smells exactly like brown sugar boba. If you're in Thornhill, we can't recommend this place enough.“

“The most expensive bowl of pho I’ve ever had, but that price reflects both the quality and quantity of the pho. Angus beef, beef rib + a choice of 2 additional meats. I couldn’t even finish the noodles that came with it. The soup base was also the most flavourful that I’ve ever had.“

“Delicious food, large portion.“

“The best Pho restaurant ever. Highly recommend. They used kangen machine amazing.“

“Had Pho and vermicelli. Food quality was very good though the brisket and rare beef portions in the Pho was noticeably less than comparable restaurants like Pho An Ngon. Staffs were ok. Had to wait 10 mins for a designated staff in order to pay my bill even though was standing right at the counter. The floor had quite a bit food crumbs.“

“I would say this place is the best Vietnamese restaurants in that’s neighborhood. Sorry, I took the picture when I was about to finish the dish. It’s not a good picture! I have gone to many Vietnamese restaurants in GTA. Some places give such a little amount of beef, the price is so crazy or you might find fruit flies in the dish..etc. This place is, regardless to say, the best Vietnamese in GTA! Trust me! You would never regret it!“

“Definitely one of the best pho places in Mississauga/ Brampton area.
The broth was very flavourful and beef the was amazing.
The place is very clean and hygienic.
The owners welcomed as warmly.
Will be coming here often.“

“New and beautiful Việt Restaurant in your area. I visited twice and each time the experience was great. Love the cozy atmosphere and decor. About the food, I tried the special Beef Pho and all the side dishes. Pho was yummy, chicken wings and fresh rolls are recommended ❤️“

“Loved the elevated Vietnamese food options and presentation and atmosphere.
Head and shoulders above other Vietnamese restaurants.
Prices slightly above regular prices. Definitely get what you pay for.
Service is wonderful. Great drink options.“

“good food and wonderful staff!“

“Friendly staff and nice ambiance. Very clean and the staff was very attentive. Hoping it will stay that way specially the quality of their foods. We loved their Pho soup, Grilled chicken and pork chop with rice and most specially their fried spring rolls. Highly recommended!👍“

“I’ve been coming to Bánh Mì Nguyệt Minh since I was a teenager. My parents used to take us to Dragon City for our Asian grocery runs, and we would always stop here after to grab a dozen bánh mì plus other Vietnamese snacks, desserts, and drinks. It’s honestly such a nostalgic spot for me.

The sandwiches always hit the spot. If you want more filling, you can just ask and they’ll add it. I’ve seen some people complain about the portion size, but realistically… where can you still get a $3.50 sandwich these days that actually fills you up?

Their cà phê sữa đá and fresh sugar cane juice are both under $5 — I always end up getting both because I crave them every time I come and the prices are so reasonable.

The staff and owner are also super friendly, which makes the experience even better. You honestly can’t go wrong coming here. Highly recommend supporting this local spot!“

“Love this place! So happy we now have this restaurant in our neighbourhood! Friendly owners, very clean, fair prices and delicious authentic Vietnamese food!“

“Such amazing food here! I dream about their tofu vermicelli under I come again. Such great, friendly staff! Highly recommended.“

“Their bun dishes are my favourite <3“

“My new favourite bahn mi place. I come here every week to get sandwiches. I can’t get enough 🤣.

To anyone complaining it takes long for sandwiches. I’m happy to wait. They put TLC in them Sando’s!

Thank you for the delicious bahn mi’s.“

“I think this is the only Vietnamese restaurant with this amount of selection of different types of snails. Also the Vietnamese pancake here was to die for if there's so many different menu options can't wait to go back and try different things everything was hitting. The banh cuon here was also fire usually I don't like that but here it's absolutely amazing.“

“I got the well done beef, soft tendon and beef brisket rice noodle soup, to which the person at the front counter recommended I get fried dough to dip in the soup which was super good!

It was lightly sweet and crispy and didn't get super soggy when dipped, everything was fresh, the soup was really good, and the quantity and variety I got with my meal was incredible, especially for it's price.

The service was super quick, the food was amazing and felt like a hug, the staff was really welcoming and sweet, and I feel like this is the type of place I'd just keep coming back to, and I definitely will.“

“Best tasting pho I’ve tried. Bun cha was also very flavourful.“

“Great Northern Vietnamese restaurant. Been here many times for dine in and take out. Staff have always been pleasant and food is delicious and portions are big.

FYI, they are temporarily closed until mid-September 2025. The hours on Google maps don't reflect this!“

“I Absolutely love the new look! I’ve been a long-time customer of Phở-Mì 66, and this renovation is stunning. The new mural is a beautiful touch of Vietnam, and the modern marble bar makes the place feel so fresh and upscale. Same great taste, beautiful new vibe. Highly recommend ! 🥰“

“Pho 99 never disappoints! I ordered #201 and loved the variety of meats—it was such a hearty bowl. The broth was warm, rich, and delicious, and it definitely helped clear my sinuses. The staff is always quick and friendly, which makes the experience even better. Highly recommend!“

“We have been coming here since I lived in Mississauga, and it is one of my favorite places for pho. We usually order pho, but this time we also tried the Pad Thai and fried rice with BBQ chicken. The pho was good as always, and my kids and I really enjoyed the fried rice and BBQ chicken. It was very tasty. I did not enjoy the Pad Thai because it was a bit overcooked and did not have much flavor. The portion sizes were generous, and we could not finish everything, so we took some food home.“

“Amazing food here! I had tried calling to see if we could set up some daily pick up orders for my company but couldn't get an answer. Can someone call me back? (647)974-9991“

“Very good food, I have good lunch ,coffee very good 👍 very enjoy myself ,come back soon“

“I know Thuy Restaurant from my co-worker. Then today I spent time to come and check it out. Owner of the store was very nice and friendly lady compared with a lot of Vietnamese owner restaurant in Toronto. I got some snacks foods. So happy with foods and service. Definitely recommend to everyone, and coming back.“

“My recommnded destination for dinner. I have been here many times. Its kinda far from my place so I only come when with my guests/friends. Food never disappoints me. My fav ones are usually Phở, 7 courses of beef, fried chicken wings with nuoc mam.“

“So authentic and clean. Totally recommend.“

“The first time I ever had Vietnamese food was at a Phở Hưng (albeit the Spadina location) close to three decades ago. It set the bar for me, and rightly so - I compare every bowl of pho I've ever had since to Phở Hưng's. I come to this location the most now because for me it's more convenient than going downtown, and it never disappoints.“

“The food is delicious. It keeps getting better with every visit. Our favourite place in the neighborhood!“

“The hype is real! This super-authentic chay (vegetarian) Vietnamese restaurant is as close to the one I've eaten at in Vietnam as anything you'll find over here. I'm fairly confident that I've tried every vegetarian pho in Toronto and Flower Lantern's is the hands-down winner - rich, flavourful broth, huge portions of noodles, and a sampler of every Asian-style mock meat they have on offer elsewhere in the menu (standouts in the soup being the faux chicken and faux bbq pork). I've never had a bowl of soup that left me so content and satiated. Was impressed enough to get a banh mi to go, can't wait to have that for lunch today!“

“The lemongrass and mushroom tofu is so delicious. Close to my grandmas recipe who passed away. There are also these mini banh mi soft baguettes you can get to make skinny little banh mis at home with pate and butter. They are still pretty good on their own, but I really like the size and texture. Definitely check them out if you need vegetarian fare. Can also order catering like trays of spring rolls. Next time I’ll get more tofu!“

“We want to say thank you to this restaurant. Service is wonderful, very friendly and courteous. personal The quality of food is more than we were expecting. Prices are very reasonable. I was not disappointed compared to other restaurants. Excellent service, very happy, highly recommended“

“Good food Friend stuff Fast serve“

“Good food and great service and the price is reasonable. I liked the deep fried squid with spicy salt and the meat and seafood on soft egg noodles. The waiter Brian who helped us was friendly. I asked him to take our picture with another couple dining with us, and he jokingly said, “Sure, just $10 per picture!” The place is clean, including the washrooms, which is important to many customers like me. I just wish they would not leave the cleaning brush and supplies inside the washrooms, as I don’t like seeing and smelling them before eating. The brush was clean but I still think it is more classy to keep them out of sight.“

“Hom nay mình Dĩ An mĩ xảo ngon lắm“

“The food is the main reason I give Sweet Pho You a 5 star rating, we usually get the grilled chicken and pork chops also the udon noodles were amazing. The only thing that they could work on is food timing, the udon noodles came way before the grilled chicken and pork chops but the spring rolls were really fresh and crispy. Lastly, I love that they give free tea and the staff is nice.“

“looking for relaxing atmosphere and cheap eats.. this is the place in North York. Must try.“

“I recently visited Banh Mi Ba Le and was thoroughly impressed with the experience from the Vietnamese cuisine. The baguette had the perfect crunch on the outside while being light and airy on the inside. The soy sauce and the meat was deliciousness. It goes with slice of cucumber, carrot and some Coriander. The service was quick and friendly. The staff were attentive and asked about our spice preferences, ensuring we had a pleasant eating experience. The atmosphere is simple and unpretentious. Staffs are friendly. Ba Le Sandwich is a must-visit for anyone looking for a tasty and authentic Vietnamese meal. The affordability, freshness, and cleanliness of the food make it a popular choice in the area. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to try something new and delicious.“

“Best pho I tried in the GTA. What makes a good pho is when the broth doesn’t make you thirsty and makes you hydrated. Good price too. Highly recommend this place as I tried many different pho in the gta and it always taste too salty or have that msg taste. You know it hydrates you when they don’t use msg for the flavour. As I’m not sure but definitely it’s not overly salty“

“For testy and verity items. Nice and friendly hospitality.“

“The bakery owner's service attitude is very cheerful, cute, enthusiastic, and friendly. The bakery is a bit small, so when there are many customers, the store does not have enough room to wait, so customers have to stand out on the street, which is very inconvenient and especially in the winter, customers will get cold. The dishes, sticky rice, rolls, cakes of all kinds, fried spring rolls, etc., are quite delicious, but for the sticky rice dish, the store should cook it with coconut water and add sugar, it will definitely be more delicious. Thank you very much.“

“Always fresh big portions great price always leave there full and happy ����🖒“
