The menu is extensive and it was a challenge settling on just one but finally settled on stir fried chicken, shrimp, and beef with veggies on rice vermicelli. My dining partner had a grilled pork chop, fried rice, and fried rice. The entrees were competent (yet not spectacular), plentiful, and decent value. A nice change from the usual quick service fare. The room is fine. Again adequate without being spectacular. Lastly, we had enough to carry next days lunch away.

My go-to here is any of the vermicelli bowls - these are always perfect for me, no notes. They always serve just the right serving size and I leave satisfied but not super full.

My notes on Pho Hamilton: - A restaurant within a grocery…read morestore. - Free parking - Extensive menu - Very friendly staff - Returning customers - Willingness of staff to recommend dishes - Prompt service Food I ordered: - Vietnamese iced coffee with condensed milk: Strong coffee aroma and taste. Not overly sweet, which I like. - Appertizer Specialty: khai vi dac biet - A combination of fried cheese wontons, deep fried Spring rolls, fresh shrimp rolls, and battered shrimps. Came with 3 sauces for dipping. My mom loved the fresh shrimp rolls while I took a fancy to the cheese wontons. At $12.99, the app is good for up to 4 people. - Main: Bun mam - a vermicelli soup made of fermented fish broth. A favourite of the local Vietnamese. The concept is the same as fermented tofu. Unique smell, but taste good. An abundance of seafood such as bass fillet, squid, shrimps, fish balls etc. Yummy. Worth the $12.99. You can also choose different size bowls. If you are absolutely famished, go for the extra large. Coz it's huge lol. Yet another reason to visit Hamilton added to my list!!

From the outside it doesn't look like much but inside it's quite inviting - there is a big fish tank! I had a classic vermicelli bowl with pork, spring roll and beef wrapped in green leaves. The pork was hot off the grill with a strong charbroiled taste. The beef in green leaves is something I have never had before and I found it to be a tasty little flavor addition to the meal. Spring roll was hot and crispy and also very good. The bowl had a good portion of herbs that makes for that fresh taste the is so much a part of Vietnamese food. My traveling companion had a spicy satay noodle soup with beef, which I had a few bites of and it was delicious. We are always looking for satay soup at Vietnamese places but it is sometimes hard to find. We were excited that Pho Lac Vien has such a great version of it. I really wanted to come back the next day and have one of those, but we were just passing through and will have to wait for the next time we are in Hamilton. We treated ourselves to Vietnamese coffees with condensed milk and ice - a perfect compliment to our food. All in all, a memorable meal and with very freindly service to round it all out.

I've only had Bahn Mi a few times and I have to say it was mediocre at best so I was expecting more of the same. Wow! Wow! Wow! McQueen's is like night and day with other Bahn Mi places. The taste and the flavors are of the chart. The place is just a sandwich shop with no seating and only about 6 offerings of Bahn Mi. I went with their classic recommendation The Saigon with was pork based with pork belly, pate and roast pork as well as some great veggies. But the standout was the bun ...crispy,crunchy,flaky on the outside and like a soft pillow on the inside. Delicious!
