The ingredients are fresh and easy to chew. It's possible to take small bites and savour each bite! We had two subs and split them. Satay Beef and Cold Cut special.

We found out that it's Banh Mi Nhu celebrated it's tenth anniversary this year and the owners celebrated their 33rd year in Canada this year as well! We got there fairly late in the evening about an hour before close. I'm thinking we can probably add a third sub to our dinner fare in future and still pay less than we would at another place for our date night! Next time we're going to try something a little more exotic and there is a lot ot choose from. Oh, and Vietnamese Coffee! Yum! I can hardly wait to go back!

The restaurant was pretty spacious and not very busy on a Saturday late afternoon. The place however was a little warm inside, maybe the AC wasn't working as they had some fans on. We ordered the vermicelli dish and pad Thai as the staff told us it was their most popular dish. The pad Thai was indeed one of our favorite. It had a unique smoky flavor to it. We also ordered the pho and eggplant dish. The pho had a surprisingly rich flavor. I would definitely recommend the pho. Overall we were very pleased with our meal and left full with hardly any left overs.

Being a vegetarian, I have had a hard time getting pho that's flavorful but the chefs here have magic in their hands, they have put so much heart and effort in packing so much flavor in their broths! I had the Sate Tofu Noodle Soup, ah can't get the taste out of my head!! Such richness, the freshness of the house made tofu paired with soft rice noodles was just beyond perfection!! The Pad Thai was also delicious: it missed one thing: crushed peanuts which we usually get at Thai restaurants. The restaurant has a very calm and peaceful auto to it!!!

They have an offer for lunch where you get a free spring roll with an entree. The menu is quite extensive, and we saw some items that I haven't seen anywhere else. Here were some of the highlights: - Spicy Sate Peanut Butter Soup with Beef: The broth was really flavorful and the subtle peanut butter paired nicely with the spicy sate beef. My dad really enjoyed this dish and was glad he got to try something a little different from his usual order of the house special pho - Rice with Stir Fried Sate Beef with 2 Pork Spring Rolls: Same sate beef as the soup noodle above but with rice. - Rice with Grilled Lemongrass Chicken and Beef with 2 Pork Spring Rolls: The lemongrass flavor wasn't that strong, but still really well cooked chicken and beef. There was lots of meat. - Grilled Beef Wrapped in Betel Leaf: This dish is a little hard to describe, but you should definitely try it. It's sort of like a ground meat patty with a fragrant yet subtle steamed leaf. - Vietnamese Iced Coffee: Truly some of the best vietnamese coffee I've had... but maybe I'm biased because of the way it was presented? It's almost like seeing the coffee drip makes the coffee taste stronger. Service was quick and efficient. Food came out really fast! It's located in a small mall on Macleod Trail (busy road so might be easy to miss) with plenty of parking available.

Maybe it was an off day but most of it just was not good at all. I had the Sate Special Beef Noodle Soup, Shrimp and Pork Salad Rolls, and the Deep Fried Pork Spring Rolls. The flavor just wasn't there for the Pho....especially for a sate broth. The shrimp in the Salad Rolls seemed kind of rubbery and nasty. The Spring Rolls and Fish Sauce were actually quite good though. Probably the reason why it gets a 2 instead of 1. With the abundance of great Vietnamese restaurants in Calgary I can't see myself ever giving this place another chance.

This was my first time having the sate beef version (which seem to be popular here) and I was so pleasantly surprised. It was a little bit spicy with more complex flavors. A great switch for the usual pho. Although, I can see that it can get a little much after a few bites. The Vietnamese coffee was also one of the best I've had.

The tofu or chicken was also delicious if beef isnt your style. I highly recommend putting a bit of hoisen sauce on the sandwich which is provided on the tables. It really adds a delcious flavour to the banh mi. Try it!!! Amazing location on 17th avenue is very centrally located with ample street parking.

There's a mobile kiosk to order takeout or dine in, you can also find a staff near the front and order there. We pick our own seats and the staff brought us our food once it's ready. It took quite a bit of time to get our orders. I ordered the ultimate bowl which is essentially vermicelli noodles with grilled meats. It did not come with fish sauce and I had to ask the staff for it. This is weird because typically when I go to Vietnam restaurants, they usually provide this automatically. Overall the portions were pretty big, the Thai tai fries were really good. I couldn't finish the ultimate bowl (maybe 40% of it). Flavour was pretty strong and I think there's MSG in it. I had to refill my water many times (self serve). The customer service can be improved but they were also swamped with Uber eats orders.
