Food was great, both banh mi and pho! Everyone was so lovely and the price was very reasonable for the generous portions (fair amount of meat in the pho and lots of fresh toppings). Clean and spacious restaurant with big windows. Will be coming back!

This restaurant has a huge menu with so many different veggie dishes.
Today I decided to order the vegetarian congee to go, and it was so yummy.
After a long day at work, this really hit the spot and gave me all my energy back.
The owner is super kind and friendly - she even gave me extra fried spring rolls!
I will definitely come back to this restaurant to try more dishes!

This place is amazing. I ordered vegetarian congee, fresh rolls, and fresh squeezed OJ (nursing a hangover) They added some free crispy spring rolls. 10/10 food and the portions great. Highly recommend!

Very Disappointing Experience
I visited this restaurant hoping for good pho, but left extremely disappointed.
The food quality was poor. The pho broth was overly sweet, tasting like too much MSG was added. The spring rolls appeared to be fried in old, dirty oil and were not fresh at all.
However, the worst part was the service. The staff was rude throughout our visit. At checkout, I was charged a mandatory $6 tip on a $29 order for two people. When I questioned this, the server grabbed my phone out of my hand, pointed it in my face, and aggressively claimed it was “required by law.” This behavior was completely unacceptable and unprofessional.
For $35 total, this was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. I cannot recommend this restaurant and will not be returning. There are many better pho options in the area with both better food and respectful service.

Be careful how much they charge you. Please double check their order and prices, they put tip automatically by themselves without asking you. I asked casher why the amount of charge is so expensive, and then, she told me that the machine automatically calculated including service charge (tip), and it’s by “Law” which they can allow to charge customers without telling them. But I confronted her, then she re calculated, but adding 17% of service charge, in the column of tax section, although the tax is 13% in Ontario. It is so disappointing this place was such a good restaurant and always satisfying. But potion of food this time was really getting small and they stolen our money in fishy way. So please be careful when you dinning in as group. We even not notice that their hidden over changes and you might give them a tip on top… They might say “It’s LAW”. Give me a break, allowing is not a law, customer can refuse it.

Bowls, cups, and plates filthy. Didn’t even look like they were cleaned. Food was ok. Lots of space inside. Tip is included in the total bill. Better pho place across the street.

I had the xl size of pho they brought the broth almost half of size of the bowl which I felt as very inappropriate I had to let them know and the server did not even apologize on top the protein was very few the discussing part was well done beef was too soft which I felt they have been kept in fridge for pass couple days I hope I won’t get sick from it not ever again going there it wasn’t worth at all spending 23 dollar without tip I would have tipped if I didn’t feel ripped

Worst pho soup I ever had. I would give negative star if possible.
We’ve been a loyal customer here for years but we keep finding hair, and GUM in our pho. We stopped going and started eating the one across the street. Also the owner is shady with adding 20% tips without telling you.

The grilled chicken with fried egg rice dish was FIRE 🔥 🙏🏽
I’ve always walked by this place and not gone in—won’t be making that mistake again!
good prices and portions, elite atmosphere serving old school down to earth vibes —much needed in a very gentrified and increasingly unaffordable area for good food

Yummy food and generous plates of greens for your pho soup. Service is friendly and casual. My family loves coming here and we order takeout often.
