I am grateful that old school pho joints like this are still around.

This place is particularly awesome because it exists in Durham region where there is such limited offering of good Vietnamese restaurants. The flavour of the pho broth is consistent with very generous portion size (the way it used to be) and the service is fast. We will happily revisit whenever we have a pho craving in the area!

It was like it was missing the Vietnamese bouquet garni in the broth. Ordered a medium and the bowl was large but the actual pho noodles were lacking. The meat, tendon and tripe qty was okay..just give me more noodles. Also - personal preference on the noodles, I didn't like their selection, give me a thin dry rice noodle, these seemed like fresh noodles or they were over boiled. Service was fine and ambience hasn't changed in years. There are better places for Pho in Oshawa/Whitby but I wanted something close to where I was.

What else should I ask for at that moment. They were to close around 9 and we would only reach around 8:35pm The lady said as long as we order food - we could stay back until 9:30 (how nice of her!) it def is a family business and was very good to accommo'date' our changes to the food we ordered! Also getting to know that its my birthday as my friends had cake along with them - she was super nice to bring me a free dessert - thai tea icecream and i loved every bit of it! I am def going back to this place when i am in the area. Bangkok style fried rice was soooo delicious

I came here twice during COVID times and finally decided to do a review …read more Ordered: XL house special pho and chicken / pork vermicelli with spring rolls Price- tad more expensive than regular pho places . Both were close to $12 each Size - portion was smaller than regular pho places especially the pho. The extra large felt like a regular sized . Also less meat .. Taste - more bland than regular pho places . The pho had to be the most bland soup I've ever tasted . Vermicelli was ok , tad more bland than what I'm use to but I didn't mind it Final comments - the thing that I really didn't like was they didn't give us any fresh herbs for the pho . It tasted almost like chicken soup with a tad bit beef flavor The first time I thought they must have forgotten it but same thing second time ! Also no peanuts on the vermicelli...and no tendons in our special pho O.o

I normally go to the Scarborough location it's really good. But I moved to Ajax and saw they had a…read morelocation closer and have tried it now 3-4 times and it's always the same issue: This location has the flavour but they rip you off. I got 2 oz of beef in a large... Scarborough gives you 6 oz. I'm litterally eating a plain soup. Lol The flavours are their the portions are not. This location is 13 mins from my house while the other location is 24 I'd rather the extra 10 minutes to get proper pho than waste my money hear. It sucks to leave a bad reviews during a pandemic but it is what it is. Don't rip off customers. I'll just continue going to the Scarborough location

I've been looking forward to try this place for awhile . Unfortunately it was a disappointment…read more Ordered: - Crispy Pad Thai with chicken : chicken was very limited ( there was more tofu ) and extremely dry. Portion was very small for the price $18. Noodles were not crispy and super oily/ soggy - granted I ordered take out. It tasted like the soggy won ton chips in a noodle dish :S - Khao Soi- this had to be the most authentic tasting dish . I'm not a fan of curry and thought this tasted not bad. Portion again was smaller than other places we've been to - KHAO PAD KA PRAO- this tasted like Chinese fried rice with super dry as sand beef. Taste wise was not bad but not authentic Thai and not what I expected. Again not worth it for the price point $19

Pho broth lacks the deep flavour I hoped for, but the noodles are great and the toppings are abundant. I actually have switched to order the grilled chicken vermicelli (which is always a great portion and great flavour) and the Bun Bo Hue. The broth again lacks a bit of flavour, but the extra lemongrass definitely brings it up a notch. I'm not sure what Bun Bo Hue is suppose to authentically taste like so I can't quite comment there, but it tastes great and comforting. Good portion and perfect for a cold winter day!

It was…read moremy first time here so it took me a few minutes to go through their menu, presented on an electronic tablet. I finally chose their Grilled Beef on Vermicelli and my friend had their House Special PHO. The pho included a little bit of everything (rare beef, beef ball, beef brisket, beef tendon & beef tripe), as well as the usual bean sprouts and basil on the side. It looked good and my friend really enjoyed it. My dish was also quite good - nice presentation and good flavours. There was a generous amount of beef sitting on top of the vermicelli, along with a tasty spring roll, and a simple salad. Adding a little hoisin and hot sauce made it perfect! The food and service were good enough to warrant a future visit. Stay tuned...

Also, their coffee is not slow drip as advertised. It's just the pre-mix coffee package you can get from the store.

We got two vermicelli bowls aka bun ( house special and pork/spring roll vermicelli), two house special pho, 1 bun bo hue, 1 spring roll and 1 avocado smoothie ! The bun was so tasteless .. noodles were not like the regular Viet vermicelli but more like the Chinese style noodles and more dry . The meat tasted like curry and not like regular grilled meat .. it was also in a skewer format . The spring roll was weird, it's like a bunch of scrap ingredients were put into it forming the spring roll. The texture was soo strange - I've never ate anything like this ! The pho was very salty and did not have the beef bone taste ! They also didn't give any culantro or perilla ( purple leaf herb ) and only gave basil ! The avocado smoothie also tasted off - didn't personally try this but my Bro's gf said she had better ! The most disappointing was the fish sauce which was lacking fish sauce taste .. it was very weak tasting ! Overall , I was disappointed at my experience here and would not come back . 1 star for friendly staff and 1 star for the location - it was easy to find !
