We ordered two to go meal 15 min before closing. Thank you for their quick service. They were ready with 10 min. We ordered two vermicelli dishes. One has only grilled chicken with spring roll. Others has grilled chicken, pork and spring roll. My chicken was about 12cm x 15cm. Very big and seasoned well. Very tender. The vermicelli was quite soft, almost like over cooked. That's why minus one star. I don't find something different or special from the menu but I had positive impression for the service and food volume. I will be back again. read more

District Noodle House - After I gave 2 slices chicken to my partner :) - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Food is ok, flavours are good and portions size is reasonable, but prices are higher than most places (probably to account for their newer premium location costs). Service was ok too, but their HVAC is not properly keeping their dining room cool on a summer day, as it was really hot inside. Parking in the area is also a bit of a challenge. read more

Local neighbourhood Vietnamese restaurant that has a fancier menu with prices to boot. However, the authentic Vietnamese food flavours and hospitality are still there, especially when you see young kids of the owners hanging out doing their homework. Service is friendly and prompt plus they have some unique dishes with fushion touches but the pho is still made with love and similar to your other Mom and Pop shops. Their regular size pho is quite big so though it's pricier it honestly is the equivalent to a large bowl of pho at other restaurants plus the soup has less MSG and their cuts of beef are higher quality. I really enjoyed the Special house pho regular size and though I came hungry, I almost struggled to finish the bowl. We also ordered the chicken wings which were really good and my boyfriend ordered the chicken bahn mi and said it was close to being the best bahn mi he has ever had. Also ordered the lime juice drink - shower refreshingly tart and delicious! Solid neighbourhood gem that is pricier but for quality and quantity, I think it's worth it at least for the dishes that we tried. read more

Food is really good and flavourful here. Only feedback is the fish sauce is alittle too sweet. Service is usually really great too. Ambience is okay, nothing above average but clean space and warm inside read more

Had walked by this place a few times when we were in the area. Decided to try as heard good things about this place. The place is clean and bright. Lots of tables for small or larger groups. We got the lemongrass chicken and garlic butter noodle with beef dish. The chicken was tender but had good flavor to it as the sear on the outside gave a nice bbq texture. The garlic butter noodle was delicious. It was rich with flavor, the beef so super tender and the noodles was good. We liked this noodle dish the most. We would get it again. The staff was tentative and friendly. The prices are a bit higher than other noodle places but I guess it's due to the area. Not many restaurants here yet. read more

Two years young, this modern Vietnamese restaurant has a welcoming feel. There are about 48 seats spread around tables for two's, four's, six's and eight's. Food is plated in a very presentable manner. However, the taste of the dishes were not quite as deep, rounded and authentic. *Vietnamese Mango & Papaya Salad: the balsamic caviar is something new! Dressing a bit too sweet lacking the acid of lime. *Pork Spring Rolls: the filling has a mushier texture, typical of taro as a filler. There's a lack of crunch bite to it. *Grilled Lemongrass Pork Chop & Egg: pork chop is not well marinated. We came on a holiday weekend and resto wasn't too busy. We chatted away and they were kind enough for us to stay on. read more

I love dining at new restaurants. In the true Yelper spirits, I can share another my "don't tell anyone else secret..." -- new restaurant openings always excite me! I am always enticed to check out new chefs, sample new dishes, and try new cuisine specials. So I decided to give this new place a try since brunch plans in the district neighborhood didn't pan out. Here is a review of my 1100am revised meal plan of an early Sunday lunch instead of late brunch. This restaurant has very modern decor for a Pho restaurant. They were playing pop music video on their tv and gives off a chilled ambiance. It was busy on Sunday and almost all tables were taken at the end of the first hour. Have yet to try other menu items, I think they deserve 4 stars for my order of Banh mi (Vietnamese subway) and for great service. I enjoyed the Banh mi - flavors of grilled lemongrass chicken paired well with my iced coffee with condensed milk. I normally prefer the French way of enjoying coffee (in a nice coffee cup or at lease a ceramic mug) but I didn't dislike drinking their coffee in a to go cup this time. I like to order my coffee hot so I can fully embrace the aroma. Yet I enjoy their iced coffee with condensed milk. And I appreciated their excellent choice of recyclable straw, it's not those paper straw that can't last through a drink. Since it only opened last months, not sure if their menu have updated or what has changed since grand opening . Posted my meal's menu for your FYI! read more

Wife saw that this establishment was open last time we were in the area and decided to give it a try. Once we entered and established that we were a party of two we were promptly seated. We were asked if we wanted water or tea and we opted for tea. The place is newer and very clean, decor simple but elegant and doesn't feel out of place for the area. After perusing the menu I decided to get their spicy lemongrass beef noodle soup, wife went with the pho chicken and chicken balls, we also ordered a pork spring rolls, and shrimp salad roll. The salad roll came first. The presentation as you cab see is quite nice. Taste wise very refreshing with the peanut sauce which was thick enough to stick heartily to the roll when dipped. The spring rolls came next and although I usually do not prefer the kind of wrapper used the filling and presentation removed any bias I had. These were delicious! Crispy outside and the inside super soft and tender. Dipping is a bit tough and is recommend you use the pointy end of the bowl and pour over your intended bite to eat. Our pho bowls arrived after and my spicy lemongrass beef noodle soup was delicious, though reading the name of this dish now I actually didn't find it spicy. However there was a beautiful taste of lemongrass and it was packed full of goodies to eat. It had vietnamese ham, beef slices, 3x house made pork/ shrimp meatballs which were extremely flavourful. Noodle portion I think could have been slightly more but overall a very decent portion. Wife's chicken pho and chicken balls also had a decent amount of chicken pieces and balls. The flavor I found was light on the chicken flavor(though it was there just lightly) and heavier on the other ingredients used. Overall the bowl had a lighter flavor profile but was decent in its own way. The pricing here I do agree is a bit on the pricier side but the freshness of the ingredients and quality and care put into their dishes is great. It's up to you if the price point is worth it to you or not. I wouldn't go across town just to visit but I definitely would come if I was nearby and wanted a tasty bite to eat! read more

Slightly more polished place than your typical hole in the wall pho place, located in the heart of the River District. They have a vegan pho, which is what prompted me to try the place, but it's priced higher than almost an anywhere in town ($18.25 plus tax), so I expected a lot. My pho came out in about 10 minutes. The pho came with lots of tofu puffs, broccoli, some carrot, shiitakes and white onion, and of course the conventional vermicelli noodles. The tofu wasn't flavoured at all, so it was pretty bland. The broth was gentle: mushroomy, with an ever so slight sweetness -- not oily at all. Pretty pleasant broth and nicely amped up by a chilli paste you can ask for. Overall, decent overpriced pho, which means I probably won't return. read more

District Noodle House - Vegan pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Nice neighborhood spot, a little fancier than your average pho shop, offering a fresh sheet of chef creations as well as larger noodle and rice bowls. I came here with my mother over the weekend as we wanted to check out the River District neighborhood. I had an appointment nearby so the plan was for lunch, a stroll, and off to the appointment. We ordered a mango papaya salad and a brisket beef ball pho. Both were larger than expected, and the mango papaya salad was a wonderful mixture of salty, tangy, sweet, with crispy, chewy and crunchy. My mother who usually has a hamster sized appetite preferred to finish the bulk of this one, so although it was on the salty side for me, I'd come back here for this since mom enjoyed it. This dish was beautifully plated, with a ring of mango and papaya shreds arranged in a ring, topped with fresh radish (and pea?) sprouts, and mayo prawns in a trio of crispy rice paper chips. These were further garnished with balsamic caviar. The brisket beef ball pho was huge, we probably could have gotten away with sharing this and a salad roll! Although flavours could be tweaked, mom enjoyed her meal. We'll be coming back! read more

Picked up the "Vegan Vermicelli Noodles with Five Spice Glaze Tofu & Veggie Spring Roll" for dinner to take home. The container for the food was huge, I didn't think I would get through it all but I ended up licking the dish at the end. Absolutely phenomenal Vietnamese food! The best I've ever had! Will be visiting with family again in the future read more

Congrats to the owners for opening! It's a welcomed addition to the neighborhood. The pho is good and so is the vibe. The price is on the high end though and has stepped over my threshold to make this my regular spot, unfortunately. read more
