    Just checked out Basil Pho House and it's going to become my go-to place in markham The Avocado Milkshake and Milk Thai Tea was really smooth, creamy, and super refreshing. For mains, we went to try the: House Special Phuc Kien Noodle Soup (chicken broth = one of the best in the city) Spicy Beef Soup in Hue Style, it was so bold, rich, and packed with flavour Appetizers were just as good: Fresh Shrimp Rolls Mango Salad for that perfect sweet-tangy balance Conveniently located at Scarborough! Give it a try!

    Wow. This is the place to come for comfort food. Viet Thai fusion pho restaurant is a must try. No lies. SPECIAL House Pho made with TCM ingredients lotus seed, jujube and goji berries. All TCM Ingredients to help in health and immunity. If you know you know House Special Vermicelli with the easy wrapper setup Phúc Kiến Noodle Soup (sliced pork + shrimp cake) Beef Satay BBQ Skewers Crispy Salt & Pepper Squid

    Location/Service This place is in the middlefield/steeles plaza with the shippers drug mart and supermarket. Plenty of parking spots available. Interior is pretty standard, but it doesn't have the crazy flower and tree decorations like the typical viet places. More homey feel. Staff were very nice, helped explained the menu and orders came on time. Food Got invited to try their menu and what's unique about this spot is that they use viet dishes and twist it a bit with some Chinese ingredients and cooking methods. Their house pho has Chinese herbs that really help boost immunity. They also have good apps like skewers and salt & pepper squid. I also like the shareable platters of house special vermicelli wrapper and a never seen dish of sliced pork and shrimp cake noodle. Prices are very reasonable too. A small pho is only $12.95! This is a pretty solid spot if you want viet food without breaking the bank. Support your local family owed business!

    This small restaurant is a hidden gem. The Vietnamese appetizers were fresh, flavourful, and made with so much care from Owner Thomas. The Chicken Noodle Soup was the real standout: rich chicken broth and perfectly cooked oil noodles and Vermicelli that hit the spot on a cold day. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the whole place had a cozy, home-cooked vibe. Highly recommend stopping by if you want delicious, comforting Vietnamese food! Also, they have delicious grilled skewers that is currently being offered at a great deal of 3 Skewers for $7 !

    I discovered that this Vietnamese Fusion restaurant is serving a hotpot set that allows you to refill the broth and noodles for FREE. The staff said that this set can serve two people but I feel like it would be enough for 4 people because the dish was massive. Their beef skewers were also flavorful and addicting! The drinks were so so - not too sweet.

    Brand new pho spot. The service was nice and friendly. Ambiance was simple but yet comfortable. I ordered the rare beef pho, the broth was nice, not too salty and the beef was nice and tender and not tough. The best part is after you eat the whole bowl of pho, you won't get thirsty! The curry brisket was very delicious. Nice and soft! I highly recommend the brisket. The HK lemon tea was nicely done. We will be back!

    My friend and I came here for dinner and got the beef bone pho hot pot, grilled beef shrimp vermicelli and beef lamb skewers. Everything tasted good and the food came out fast. The beef bone pho hot pot is great for sharing and also fun cooking ingredients table side. They also give free refills of noodles and soup for those that get the hotpot. Refills of meat and veggies will cost extra.

    Dined at Linh Anh on December 9, 2024 at 8 pm. This place sure hit the spot on a cold winter night…read moreand you're craving for a nice bowl of hot pho. As soon as I walked into the doors, the aroma of the pho overtook my senses and my mouth was already salivating and my palate was excited. Everyone knows the rule of eating pho is eat the first spoon of broth alone. After I sipped my first spoon, I squeezed a bit of lime and dived in for more. The broth was perfectly seasoned and had a depth of flavor that was evident that the broth was made over several hours. Just a nice simply beef noodle soup that reminded me of my childhood eating pho at home. It's very rare to say pho at a restaurant is comparable to one made at home. When good food makes you reminisce of your younger years, I totally understand what "food is love." The interior design really takes you back in time with the old TV and radio equipment. I thought it was pretty cool. The service was adequate. Overall, one of the best pho I had in Toronto.

    Very nice interior with lots of Asian inspired decor…read more Tried a bit if the pho and felt it was not seasoned as other pho places. I previously came here and ordered the bone marrow and felt that it was just a bit of a novelty. The rice and vermicelli dishes were large in portions with lots of protein. Be prepared to potentially wait as the restaurant can get very busy.

We got there around 11:30AM and it wasn't busy yet but had people trickling in as the time passed. Service was a solid 5/5. Staff were so nice and happy - always smiling at us whenever they brought anything to our table. The dishes here were great with some adjustments to their dishes, I think it could be a solid 5/5! Here goes: Viet coffee 4/5 - Love me an iced Viet coffee. Was a tad sweet imo, so think they could adjust their condensed milk portions for this. Overall was a great caffeine hit drink though. Banh Cuon 5/5 - Oh my goodness - must get! Chewy steamed rice rolls with a pork filling dipped into the fish sauce. Came with grilled meats which were to die for. Bun Cha Ha Noi 5/5 - Meats were very well seasoned in the broth like sauce. It's a dipping type noodle and was absolutely divine. Bun Bo Hue 4/5 - This was good but not too spicy. Lacked a bit of umami flavour and felt like it could have used a bit more depth. Pho Bo 4/5 - Standard beef pho that was comforting and delicious. Overall a pretty solid spot for Vietnamese food. Would visit this place again.

Besides enjoying their staple rice dishes with different proteins like grilled pork and noodle soup (pho), we also tried their newest dishes. Vietnamese Crepes - bean sprouts, green beans herbs + shrimp/beef wrapped in crepe Banh Khot - small egg cakes with toppings (shrimp, beef, pork, mushroom) These dishes were very refreshing and flavorful. Definitely, Vietnamese cuisine still has a lot more to offer than just pho. I recommend you give these dishes a try!

It was loaded with meat! The broth was clear and tasty. We also tried the spring rolls which my 4 year old devoured 2 whole ones before anyone could touch it. I guess it was that good because I didn't even get a chance to try it. The chicken wings were good as well. We also got the fresh rolls, but I didn't really like it as it had shredding lettuce. The bun bo hue was good, even though we asked for less spicy, it was still spicy to me! I loved that I didn't feel thirsty after unlike some viet restaurants. This means they don't use a crazy amount of MSG. Would definitely come back!

Less than half of the tables were occupied and there were two staff members working. Their menu is quite extensive, and on the high average end for pricing. You can expect to spend about $20-30 after taxes and tips per person, depending on what you get. I got the banh da cua hai phong, which is Hai Phong-style noodles, including a variety of toppings like crab paste, shrimp, and pork betel leaves. My friend got the com rang dua bo, which is fried rice with stir-fried mustard greens and beef. The noodles were a bit oilier than I anticipated but taste overall was good. It's not something I'd choose over pho though. The fried rice by itself was very delicious - I'd get this by itself, but my friend said the combination of greens & beef with the fried rice was weird ("not balanced" he said). The portions are huge. I ate only 1/3 of the noodles and my friend ate 1/2. We had lots of leftovers. In total we spent $27pp each. The service was very good. They came around often to refill our tea and was pretty attentive. Overall if I come back, I'd try out their pho or the crab sticky rice (if we had a larger party) like people recommended!

Not my favourite way to eat crab as the seafood flavour gets lost in the sauce but was worth a try. The staff are very friendly and considerate - gave us a discount on the crab as it was missing a limb as it is priced by the pound.

    Pho Bun Bun is a great Vietnamese pho spot in Markham…read more The Signature Grilled Meat Platter (S1) was the highlight. It's well served and fully loaded with grilled pork, chicken, and fresh veggies. It also came with rice paper and fish sauce, so you can build your own rolls exactly the way you like.

I don't know if it was strategic on their part, but they have effectively undercut some of their biggest viet competitors by $3-4 on a lot of their items which to me makes this resto rank VERY HIGH in terms of value because of their also huge portions. Admittedly, the taste of their pho broth still doesn't beat Ngon Corner in Richmond Hill for me but they have some items that I can't find on a lot of resto menus. For example, the signature grilled meat platter is amazing. It says serves 2-4 ppl on the menu and I think that's pretty accurate. My friend and I shared one and we're big eaters so we shared it between the two of us and actually felt full! They also PACK the platter with ingredients and don't skimp on anything which is awesome. You love to see it. Also, I came with the gf and the curry is quite layered in terms of flavour. But for me, the most underrated item is the tomato beef brisket noodle soup. Damn, that tomato broth SLAPPED. Better broth than a lot of chinese soup noodle places I've been to and the brisket was also very tender. Even though Ngon Corner is still packing the most flavour in their pho broth, I found myself somehow gravitating to this place with more and more visits because of the sheer value and pricing (I've also told a lot of ppl that they're quite affordable compared to some of the other Viet stalwarts in Markham/RHill). Hopefully this continues and they don't get greedy and decide to increase the prices!
