The beef noodle is good to eat with a little bit of salty soup, in a very spacious restaurant among those in China Town, next to Italian Village.

The food is amazing with large portions! Very quick service (at most 10 mins), 10/10 would recommend :)

(We ordered C3, very good)

Food was ok but not great. Service was abysmal. Very unfriendly and I felt it was a bit dishonest given they brought out tea when we never asked for it but charged us. We thought It was included as it is at every other restaurant I've been to.

Photos here are not to be trusted. They posted a lot of stock photos.

The food was delicious, and the portions are very generous. We had a few items from the dim sum menu, a vermicelli dish and a smoothie. We loved it and so did the kids. It's a family friendly atmosphere. It is also own by a very sweet woman who made sure to stuff my kids hands with fortune cookies before we left. We will definitely be back.

Do not miss the sweet tasty original Pho Dac Biet P1 when you visit this restaurant. Parking is spacious on the side of the building. Good place for lunch or dinner.

Don't go- Food decent, limited menu, bad service.Pho is good, fried spring rolls don't use typical rice paper, they use spring roll wrapper. Fresh rolls ok but lack filling like vegetables. Got the grilled chicken and rice it was not very good. We were the only table on a Friday at 6pm-7:30pm. Lady took our order then came back to ask us to write down our order which she entered again and that doubled up our food order incorrectly. We ordered 1 large pho but she brought out 2 large phos, we were nice and just accepted it. Never received the fried chicken wings we ordered so when we paid asked her to take it off the bill, she disagreed and said we got them. After a few minutes of looking at each other she ran to the kitchen and brought out an order of wings. She forgot to bring them out but we were already done eating and paying at that point?? Anyways we didn't want to argue with her so we paid and took the wings in a box. Would not return .

Had the grilled pork and spring roll vermicelli. It was freshly cooked, came with a nice variety of fresh vegetables and tasted great.

Dim sum here is above average. Notably it's also huge in most cases piece-for-piece.For that reason alone we support them since there are less dim sum options than there used to be. It seems like they are still working through what they want to do for the rest of the menu... It was Chinese and now it's Vietnamese. So far in both those cases what we got wasn't amazing compared to their many competitors in either category on Somerset.I stress though that they are new and we are happy to keep giving them chances with different menus! If they upped their dim sum game it would be a 4/5 and there is some promise there. If they also upped their dinner menu it'd be a 5.

ordered bean curd rolls. Still cold and under-cooked. They put black bean sauce on the bean curd rolls which is not a normal practice for all the bean curds I have tried in so many restaurants. They didn't make the beef balls the normal ways. They just put all the minced beef together to make it like a ball. Again, this is not the way it makes for dim sum beef balls. Apparently, the chef is amateur and never learned cooking. I am a Chinese so I have tried so many Chinese restaurants. The food in this restaurant is the worst I tried in my whole life.

Have been eating dim sum for over 40 years in Montreal, Toronto, and ottawa. This was possibly the worst experience. Never again.
