PHO 128 - bone marrow pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Concord, Ontario

Terrible service. There was a line, everyone around us told us to go in and sign up so we can be put on a list, but rudely told off by staff that we were "not waiting in line properly", so they were completely dismissive to us. No instructions whatsoever and absolutely uncalled for how rude they were. There are better restaurants in town that care for their customers read more

The place is a bit narrow but it's still pretty decent if you go with another person or small group. The food is actually pretty good! The phở broth was delicious and there was plenty of meat. They didn't use cheap beef balls which usually has a lot of flour filling. We had fried chicken and it was really crispy and tasty! I'd order it again for sure. Everyone was nice so it was a pleasure to eat here for lunch. I wanted an egg soda but it was $7.95 which is way too much. Pass! I'd give this place a high 3.5 stars and would come here again! read more

This is a mom and pop shop that you must visit for authentic Vietnamese food. Coming in on Sunday, they were quite packed and we were lucky to have gotten a seat right away. Their menu features a selection of classic Vietnamese appetizers, Pho, Bun, Com and drinks. We ordered the House Special in S, and the Spicy Lemongrass Noodle Soup that comes in a L size. The noodles on soup came in a unique stone bowl which kept the noodles warm for a long time, and there was a generous amount of beef for both dishes. The Spicy Lemongrass Noodle Soup was very aromatic and had a slight kick to it - very tasty! The original House Special pho was also fantastic, the noodles were cooked right and we couldn't stop drinking the soup. We're definitely coming back to this restaurant the next time we're around (it's close to Vaughan Mills). IG: Ayenomz read more

The good: This is a secluded spot to find decent Vietnamese food in Vaughan, albeit there are many around. This place is a no frills, dimly lit restaurant. For a weekday night, it wasn't busy, and the service was quick. I tried the Bun Bo hue, less spicy and can say it's a different flavour than I'm used to. The broth flavour was intense and good portion sized. The bad or needs improvement: Maybe it was just me, but the broth was super oily and the flavour profiles were a bit different than a typical bun Bo hue. read more

Fantastic pho! Broth is rich in flavour and you can mix and match your meat and soup base.

Service is really slow and store feels cramped? Pho is also more on the oily side, would recommend rice dish

Great pho w massive marrow bones, great wings, great pork chop w fried egg rice. Order these 3 items and your group will leave very happy! service was fine, ambiance is tight and crowded, expect to wait for a table. Worth it. read more

This place is crazy busy because the food is crazy good! Very nice staff but seating is a little limited.

Small corner place., nothing fancy but the food is so good and portions are big. We shared the shrimp fresh rolls and they were very good, peanut sauce was on point. I got the vermicelli noodles with bbq beef, told it came with a second meat so I took the waitress suggestion of a fried beef and it was so good. Spouse had the spicy lemongrass pho (sm) and he was so full by the end. Broth had great rich flavour , tasted like it spent hours developing its flavour. The place was packed by the time we left and I can see why . Definitely would recommend to anyone who enjoys Vietnamese cuisine. read more

I've ordered take out from here several times and it can be a bit tricky when place the order to go. The food is great but it seems like they rush to take the order, and aren't actively listening to ensure there is little to no error. I recently place an order for takeout, chicken pad thai. I trusted what was in the bag, but upon arriving to my destination, which was about a 20-30 minute drive from the restaurant, I unboxed the order only to find shrimp pad thai. Luckily I am not allergic the shell fish, however I have a family member who is. I've been trying to convince her to try this place, and now she's not trusting that they'll get her order right. It was after 8 PM by the time I arrived at my destination, and was not able to drive back to the restaurant to request the correct order. If you're ordering takeout, please check your order before leaving to avoid any disappointment or possibly landing in the hospital. read more

Pho 128 has been on my list for a long time and I'm glad that I had a chance to try it out. It's located near Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and is a bit difficult to get to due to the never ending construction in the area. When I arrived around 1pm, this place was packed. There were many people ordering to go, which made service slower than I expected. I ordered an iced coffee with condensed milk, the fried spring rolls, and the rare beef and flank pho. The iced coffee with condensed milk comes pre-stirred and it tasted great. The fried spring rolls were tasty as well. The pork and other ingredients on the inside was soft and savory. The outside was crunchy but thick. I prefer a thinner roll. The 2 rolls were quite filling, but perfect for 2 or a larger group. I enjoyed the rare beef and flank pho. The aromatics were fresh, the broth was flavorful, the beef was fresh, tender, and savory, and the noodles were tasty. Overall, I thought that Pho 128 served up excellent pho. It's a welcome addition to the restaurants in the area. read more

Big Foot... The Abominable snowman... Loch Ness Monster The accounts of witnesses often makes these creatures sound legit, but no one can every truly prove that they are real. To some degree, that's how I feel about the Vietnamese restaurant, PHO128. Why do I say that? Because I've been wanting to visit for years, but somehow, some way I don't end up frequenting the business. Is it even real or is it a mirage? Trust me there are times where I've ended up in their parking lot, but ended up walking back to my car empty handed. This mainly is due to their limited business hours. They are only open on the weekdays from 11 - 4pm. Unless you happen to be in the area during the day or work in the nearby industrial area, I think it would be difficult to make a visit. Finally, this summer I've managed to get takeout from this elusive restaurant. I walked in and I didn't expect the ordering/cashier area to be fast food style with backlit menu. Nonetheless, the rest of the restaurant looked clean with a simple modern look. My takeout order consisted of fried spring rolls, fresh rolls and a large order of their house special pho. The fresh roll was pretty standard - lettuce, coriander, thin pieces of shrimp and a mixture of chicken and pork sausage. Honestly, I wish there was more meat in it to give it more taste. I quite liked their sweet peanut dipping sauce though. Their pho was good. Fresh noodles were used, beef broth was clean and flavourful and not MSG infused. The amount of meat and toppings is also less than places I'm used to going. But I'm quite happy with the flavours. So far I think I'm prepared to give them a four star, until we get to the fried spring rolls. The filling, the taste and the initial crunch of the fried spring rolls were actually on point. But I really can't get past the bites after where it gave me the weirdest sensation. The fried rice paper was actually sticking to my teeth. Every time I took a bite, the rice paper stuck to my teeth. I've never eaten a friend spring roll that is like this. Pho 128 is solid and probably a decent place for lunch if you work in the area. But between the 'sticky' spring rolls, slightly skimpier meat toppings and unicorn-esque business hours, it's unlikely that I will make it back to Pho 128. read more

Great pho restaurant in concord with a fairly busy lunch crowd. The small menu made it easy to choose appetizers and mains, and ultimately meant that the few items being offered were all made well. Fresh and crispy rolls were both delicious and presented well, and would have been a 5 star rating however the pho broth was a tad too oily compared to some other places nearby. read more

Just stopped in to takeout their bun special #2. After an insane 40 minute drive thru Vaughan traffic to get my lunch home I was a little concerned. Wow. This was the best bun I've ever had. Every component down to the pickled radish was excellent. All grilled meats were tender and nicely grilled. The spring rolls even after that drive were still delicious. Incredible. Can't wait to get back to try the Sate Noodle Soup and everything else! read more

A great hidden gem. We went there after checking out reviews. The soup was great since it came with lots of meat and noodles the size was perfect for a family of 4 to share with another large main of Pad Thai.. the Pad thai was loaded with shrimps though it had no flavour and an off taste of almost rawness... I give it a 5 for cleanliness, well balance and generous portion of dishes. Price is reasonable. We like this place setting as well because it has booths which is more intimate. We had no problem with service, there was only one lady in front and one cook in the back they had a sign that says under staffed. read more

hands down this is the best pho I've ever had in the GTA. the broth is light and flavourful, the bone marrow is to die for! for $22 you are getting a very large bowl with two large pieces of bone marrow. That is an incredible deal and well worth the price! I share my bowl with my son who's 10 and it was more than enough food. This is one place you need to make it out to - you'll be dreaming about it and craving it for years to come. Stop reading the review, just go and eat it already!!!! read more

Updating my review to 5 stars. I'm not sure if ownership has changed or if it is being run by the same owner since 2021, but they have changed their business hours and are now open 7 days a week. The food is still very high quality and the chicken wings are amazing. One thing to note is it can get very busy during the lunch rush so call ahead if you are doing takeout. read more

One of the best pho places near me. Portions are generous and judging by the name, if you know you know it's authentic.

On a Sunday afternoon, I drove here to try the P3. SPICY PEANUT SATE-(PHỞ SA TẾ). Delicious! A beautiful balance of savoury and sweet flavours! Going back soon! read more

Came here for a quick lunch - 1 person. Ordered a large pho which never came after waiting for more than 30 minutes. They served another table that came after me and when I asked when my order was coming....they said another 5 minutes. Lacking customer service and will not be coming back. Very disappointing as I was really looking forward to eating here. read more

Came in on a Sunday night and it was packed! The interior is not really nice (but that's how you know the food is going to slap), there were lots of flies, but the food was absolutely delish. We ordered... - Sate Beef Pho: flavour was on point, came with plenty of meat and veggies and sunny side up egg. - Spicy Lemongrass Pho: not as spicy as I expected it to, but the flavours were great! There was a generous amount of meat. - Fried Spring Rolls: highly recommend you order. It was super crispy and when soaked in the dipping sauce, it was to die for! All the food came out steaming hot and was still hot by the time I finished eating. That's the way I like it! read more

Unbelievably good pho ga. The chicken was moist, broth one of the best i've ever had. Had them add vegetables and it was awesome.

We came here on our first night in Toronto being close to our hotel. We walked here and later I went back with my father-in-law to pick up the rest for movie theater. According to my in-laws, this is sub-par Vietnamese food but I couldn't tell. I do agree in terms of home-style cooking it is lacking. The ox tail that I had was rubbery and not cooked long enough. Mine used to be served with pig's blood but most people in suburbs did not like it. So, I was told by our waiter that the chef took it out. Also, the broth is probably chicken stock without cooking in meat and bones. Oh well, it hit the spot and the price was reasonable. I wished we would have found a more authentic place in downtown but no time. read more

Hidden Gem... Looking for a Pho place in Vaughan, and Yelped recommended Pho 128. Noticed all the stars and reviews and decided to give it a try. It was better than expected for 4.5 stars!!! I've had a lot of Pho from many different places and hands down, this place was top 3 for sure! I had the "create your own custom noodle soup", so I chose the spicy lemongrass soup base, traditional Pho noodles, crispy pork, grilled pork and cooked beef and both the pork dishes came as I side. I thought that was odd, until I added the meats to each spoonful of my noodles and beef. It was heavenly. Do yourself a solid and try this place if you're in the area. If you don't enjoy it... let me know I'm wrong. If you loved it as much as I did... you're welcome! read more

PHO 128 - Beef Noodle Soup, Crispy Pork & Grilled Pork Along With Shrimp Spring Rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - Concord, Ontario

Is this place good? Yes! Is this place authentic? Unfortunately not, its a fusion place but definitely has a lot going for it. Whenever I hear of a new restaurant opening up in the GTA I always get a bit excited, I mean who doesnt want to try out a new place? When I heard not only is this place new but also a pho place you definitely have my attention. This place is located right at the corner of portage and edgely. The restaurant has decent seating, quite spacious and clean. We were warmly greeted as we arrived right after they opened on a Saturday morning. Upon first peruse of the menu, I had my doubts given the dishes. Though the restaurant says pho, most dishes were a fusion of some sort (pork bone noodle soup?). My other half ended up getting the bun bo hue and I got the satay noodle soup. Both soups were served in clay bowls, reminiscent of korean gam ja tang or kim chi chi gae. While our soups came out hot, they could have utilized the bowls better by having the soups bubbling hot. My soup came out with a fried egg on the side, crispy pork belly, roasted pork and rare beef. While honestly the combo was out of the ordinary, it worked for me! Each protein was very distinct in its own right, and tasty. My other half soup though not your traditional bun bo hue, it was definitely tasty and inspired by the original. We also got the beef with batel leaf and spring rolls. All the appetizers came out hot, with lots of meat and little filler. The meat tasted great, juicy and full of flavor. Also we were absolutely stuffed by the end of the meal. All in all, I would say if your looking for authentic vietnamese, you may need to pass on this place But if your looking for a filling meal with a fusion twist, I would definitely not hesitate to recommend this place and will be back again soon read more

PHO 128 opened a while ago on the corner of Portage Parkway and Edgeley. It's really clean inside. When I first stepped in and looked at the odd menu, I had my doubts about how good the food would be but WOW! Super pleasantly surprised! The pho they have is a little bit pricier than some of the places nearby at $9.50 for a small and $10.95 for a large. What was really strange to me was that they seem to serve Viet, Thai, AND Korean inspired noodles, which is usually not a good sign. On one of the later menu pages, you have the option of building your own soup noodle dish. Anyway, I ordered the Bun Bo Hue with 0 expectations because of their other strange offerings... but WOW was it flavourful! I have to admit that I thought it was weird that it was served in a Korean stone bowl (the ones you can put directly on the stove) but after eating a few bites, it made COMPLETE SENSE. That stone pot keeps your soup molten lava hot for much longer than regular bowls, you can make single portions right on the stove, and it looks pretty nice in pictures. Pretty clever. This bowl of noodles kicked my butt. It was so spicy and flavourful (exactly what I was looking for), it completely cleared my sinuses. They added super thinly sliced beef to the Bun Bo Hue--- it was really good beef. I miss the blood curds that's usually in this, but goddamn it, who cares, this was a good bowl of noodles. It was decently sized for a sick Asian girl who eats enough noodles to feed a small family. After I was done, I went from 0 expectations to 0 regrets. The waiter who was cleaning and setting up the empty tables put the napkin, spoon, and chopsticks on the tables with such care, every time. And I feel like that really represents how they treat their food too. Really glad I stopped by. Will definitely come back to try their pho and other things. read more

Came for lunch with my husband after reading many positive reviews on Yelp. I really love their gimmick by using the Korean hot stone bowl to keep the broth hot. They also offering you "Build your own Pho" . I ordered bun bun hue broth - the taste was good but I noticed they placed a lot of m.s.g and sugar in the broth. I have to drink a lot of water afterward. My husband order the regular broth and he said he likes it but again, he was very thirsty after the meal. I took off 2 star because of the m.s.g. and the broth is slightly too sweet. I will still return again because I really like their broth super hot. Hopefully they can lower the m.s.g and sweetness next time when I return. read more

I've been here 2 times. I had the curry chicken noodles and a Thai iced tea on my first visit. It was so good that I went back for the same dish a few days later. But the second time was a bit disappointing. The soup base was too salty to my liking. Instead of pieces of chicken, I got 2 drumsticks, there's nothing wrong with it just that I prefer them cut up. And there were way less fried egg noodles on top. I give a 5 star on my first visit and a 3 for the second visit. I will go back to give it another try. Btw, service is very good. It's like a family restaurant. read more

This place is delicious, cute and a great deal. When you come in they serve you green tea and set an order sheet down on your table. You just write down your order and then they'll come pick it up :) To start we got the spring rolls with shrimp, and tried something new- beef wrapped in betal leaf. Both starters were delicious. The beef wraps are filled with ground seasoned beef and served with fish sauce. Foe the main course my colleague ordered the spicy beef noodle soup, while I built my own pho with the same ingredients, but I replaced the pork with steak. Both soups were amazing. The ox tail just fell off the bone and the portions were enormous. You will definitely have soup left for the next day! The broth is perfectly spicy and flavored. Service was also quick, the location was very clean and the atmosphere was super chill with cover songs quietly playing in the background. I will definitely be making this my go to snack spot whenever I have work out this way. But don't take my word for it! Check this place out read more

Servers are super nice and service is quite quick. Odd comment but I really like the music they put on: pop songs but the good ones, haha so I really enjoyed that. Food is good and decently priced. Pho comes in small or large and the portion size is great. The beef is quite tender too (hit or miss with pho shops at times). The broth was more salty this visit but wasn't during other visits. The restaurant itself is quite small but is appropriate since its tucked in an industrial area. I assume it'd be great for workers close by who need a good place to eat for lunch. read more

Went there on Saturday around 6 pm. This restaurant was simple, clean and pleasant. There was just a couple of occupied tables, presumably because it's tucked in an industrial area with most businesses closed for the weekend. It seems to be family run. Servers were courteous and friendly. Our orders: 1) Fried "paper" wrap spring rolls were crispy with tasty taro mix stuffing and delicious dipping sauce which seemed house made; 2) Pho with rear beef and beef shank in clear beef broth was flavourful without being too salty nor MSG ridden and 3) bun ho hue with well balanced flavourful spicy broth and a mix of sliced beef, beef shank and chunks of pork sausage, chicken and ox tail (in place of hock and blood curbs which are generally not popular with GTAers). The proteins were tender and of good quality too. I really like the feature of serving pho in a hot thick clay bowl which retains the temperature of the soup until you're done eating. It would be even better if they heat up the bowl a bit more. Hey they even accept credit card payment! I would definitely come back to try their other dishes if we happen to be in the area shopping at Ikea or Costco. read more
