I had lunch there today with a friend, and ordered the beef and broccoli. I made this choice based on the picture on the menu - it looked like an overflowing plate of goodness!! When my plate arrived, it was not overflowing or even full. I was able to add my side of noodles onto the plate without spilling anything off the edge.
I understand the costs of things are up, and perhaps the servings can't be as large as they once were, but then please remove the pictures so that hopes...read full review

Been going here for years. Quality has been better than in previous years.
Excellent food as always. Great atmosphere. Ample seating. Even the added on tip for seating six plus was more than fair.

Pho Ben Thanh Restaurant is known for its tasty spring rolls and a variety of dishes such as Tom Yum soup, Red Curry Chicken, and passion fruit slushie with passion fruit jellies. The restaurant has been a favorite for some customers for 8 years. The shrimp pad thai has been criticized for having a small amount of shrimp and being expensive. The food quality varies between locations, with some customers preferring the Cambridge and Kitchener locations over the Waterloo one.
The restaurant serves Viet-Thai food and has a wide selection of dishes and drinks. Customers recommend trying the avocado shake. The service is generally quick and friendly, but reservations are often needed for lunch and dinner. The restaurant is also popular for take-away orders.
While the majority of the food is incredible, with the Thai rolls being particularly praised, some customers have had issues with the Tom Yum soup being watery and having large pieces of green tomatoes. The service has also been inconsistent, with one customer reporting a spill, a missed appetizer, and the pho not being hot enough.
