I have come to the conclusion that this is not a good place to come to if you're Vegetarian. I am technically pescatarian but I try to eat seafood sparingly so really, most of the time I lean towards Vegetarian/ Vegan. I do enjoy the Egg Bahn Mi sandwich here; however, I was starting to tire of it and really wanted something lighter on this occasion. The Bahn Mi sandwich comes in two halves. Eating just one half is very filling already, and the sandwich isn't really something that keeps well overnight so if I order it, I feel like I should eat the entire sandwich in one sitting. Since I wanted something lighter I ordered the Vegetarian spring rolls while the rest of the table ordered regular entrees for themselves. Blah...was not impressed with the Vegetarian spring rolls. Not at all a good replacement for regular Vietnamese spring rolls. These might as well have been labelled Chinese Spring rolls cuz that's really more what it tasted like. Lychee refresher drink was good but I can't really give the restaurant a good rating for serving me one good drink, and less than mediocre food. The food is the main event at any restaurant and I wasn't impressed with the Spring rolls. There are very few options on the menu for a vegetarian at this restaurant. The food here is usually pretty decent if you're a meat eater but if you're vegetarian then drinks and the Egg Bahn Mi Sandwich are pretty much the only safe bets in my experience. Admittedly, they do have a Vegetarian bowl of Pho and a Vermicelli bowl as well. I prefer to avoid fake meats though and both of these dishes contain "Vegetarian ham." Also, I have rarely been impressed with Vegetarian Pho broth. So that's another reason I have not tried to order the Vegetarian Pho. Perhaps I should give it a try one day. Maybe I will be pleasantly surprised. I am skeptical though, and the Vegetarian spring rolls only make me all the more skeptical... read more

Pho 68 - Vietnamese Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

Went there for lunch, we had the rice plate for chicken & pork plate. Meats were very nicely marinated. They have Vegetarian options too. Rice plate is $19.95, that's the normal pricing for food nowadays. Groceries prices have increased... the food is good, they have other locations. Place is clean, nicely decorated & staff are friendly. We ordered the 3 kinds of spring rolls along with our meal unfortunately no photos. read more

I got number 1: House special that pretty much came with everything. B got the Spicy Sate Pho which was a special on the day we were there. My friend C got the same as me and my friend R got the bahn mi. The food here was super delicious. I really liked my pho. It had a generous portion of meat. The beef broth was very flavorful. Note that they have a special spicy sauce and you may need to ask for it if you would like to try. The place has free parking but note that this place does get very busy. Service is ok. We showed up very late at night and the place was packed. The staff looked overwhelming busy. It can be difficult to flag someone down at times. The ambiance was ok. The place is quite bright. It looks like your typical pho place. I will definitely come again. read more

I have visited this place earlier this month. I just wanted to try a different Vietnamese restaurant in Burnaby as Pho 68 was one of it. They have a big menu consisting of: bubble tea, Banhmi, noodle soup, dry noodles and rice. I got #20 Bun Bo Hue (small size $14.55) for late lunch. Size was not bad. It had some plentiful of meat toppings and the soup was on the sweeter side. Noodle was too overcooked. Food came out fast. I personally found the service to be average. read more

Really enjoyed the salad rolls and the fact that you can order 1-2-3. The sauce is a bit thin. The rare beef pho- the meat was not very tender so very hard to enjoy. Offer in house discount which is sweet! read more

Nice newish pho place by Edmonds and Kingsway. Free parking is available in the lot attached to the building. The seating is decently large. Lots of mirrors, as well as nice large windows for people watching. Staff are friendly and quick. There was a special satay beef pho as of the time of writing. This thing is solid. Nice raw slices of beef, with cooked beef ball chunks. Soup had a nice amount of heat but wasn't excessive. My friends and I were ready to weep. Besides their fairly decent hot sauce, they also have jars of pickled garlic. I think I ate half the jar. I will be back at some point to try their other dishes, but that satay beef pho sure left an impression. Will have great difficulty trying their other stuff next time I'm here. Recommended. read more

Never disappoints! Quick service and great prices. The veggie spring rolls are awesome

I finally got the chance to dine here after reading about it a couple of years ago. The place started to fill up towards lunch time on weekend. Either go early or make a reservation if you have a group of diners. I decided on the basic house special. I got a small and add on spring roll for $2.50. It's so rare to find appetizer for such pricing now. Definitely worth it to make it a combo. The spring roll is one of the best I ever had. Despite its thinness, the spring roll is actually heavy. It's fully filled inside with meat and vegs. Encased in a thin sheet and nicely fried till crisp. It gives a satisfying crunch. The small pho is also full of ingredients and I struggle to finish it. I like how you can see it's really rare beef slices being served here. The place is also busy with many take out orders. Service is good too. Free parking in the building. read more

I was in the neighbourhood and looked for a pho restaurant. I need to make sure it had a four star rating and good (not fake) reviews. I came here and tried it! This pho restaurant didn't disappoint me. The interior design is more modern and contemporary comparing to old ones on Kingsway, Vancouver. Obviously the restaurant is new. Servers were friendly and attentive. Customers here were multicultural. I am talking about Chinese, Korean, Indian, Vietnamese, Caucasians, etc. it was great! That means people from different cultures like to eat Vietnamese food. The menu had some unique dishes and traditional dishes, but I could only try a few of them. My husband and I ordered a spring roll combo, which included a deep fried spring roll and two salad rolls (one shrimp and one sausage or ham). All of them were good and they came with different peanut butter sauce and fish sauce. The chef had put effort to create a more unique spring roll. It was different from the traditional ones I had been eating on Victoria and Kingsway in Vancouver. We also ordered two pho on their special menu - House Special and Northern Vietnamese style noodle soup with ginger minced steak. The latter one tasted great and I could rarely have this flavour in other Vietnamese restaurants. Pricing was reasonable. I would like to come back and try their beverages and other dishes. In terms of parking, there is street parking, or we prefer to park at the commercial parking in the building. This neighborhood is not new but the building is new with some new restaurants. It's good to explore many things on the same street as well. read more

I've ordered pick up, salad roll, lemongrass chicken and rice, and wings. The salad roll wasn't good, I don't like turkey sandwich meat in my salad roll and I've never had that anywhere else I've ordered. the lemongrass chicken plate had no chicken, none at all. They'd forgotten it just rice and salad for $20. I was already at home and decided I don't want to deal with it, I'll just never go back. The wings were expensive imo, but they were good! Still not enough for me to ever return. Maybe dine in is okay here as you can quality control everything and send back. read more

Clean, new, fast service at 1.15pm. At first I thought the prices might be a bit high (sticker shock everywhere these days) but the portions are enough that both mom & I will get 2 meals each out of it. Great flavours, texture and crispy thin shelled egg rolls!!! Aaahhh crunch!! read more

I expected the portions especially the meats to be larger. Got the number 1 bowl beef everything. I got half a beef ball, one tripe, one beef tendon, a few slices of beef steak and brisket and two fattie ones that were inedible. I asked to have thick vermicelli noodles instead of regular rice noodles and they were quite generous with that. Food was okay wasn't anything special or stood out. I took another star off cause my step mom said her fish cakes tasted off and old. We won't come back again. read more

Simple, tasty, Vietnamese food. Pho broth is pretty light, so not the place to go if you want a very rich broth, but it's good. The bún bò Huế has a much richer broth, but if you're looking for a very traditional version, the one here is missing pig's blood and pig knuckles. That being said, it's quite tasty and it's something you can share with friends who would be grossed out by the traditional version. I haven't eaten inside due to covid, but from grabbing take-out, it looks like they keep it pristine. read more

I ordered 4 grilled lemon grass chicken with vermicelli for take out and one had peanut sauce instead of fish sauce at the Richmond location. My son had the one with the peanut sauce. He poured the sauce over the food without tasting the peanut sauce first. The sauce tasted really sour when he ate the food. He ended up throwing the food in the garbage and he had stomach ache and diarrhea the next day. I called the restaurant the same night we had the food and asked them why the peanut sauce was sour. At first, they said the sauce was fine. After I asked them to try their peanut sauce in the house, their excuses were the vermicelli was hot and the peanut sauce was on top of the vermicelli. That's why it turned bad. Or there were pickles on the salad so the sauce was sour. They even said the sauce turned bad because we did not eat our meal right away. Will never go back again. read more

New Vietnamese restaurant, just what this area needs! They're offering 15% off during their grand opening. We ordered a bun cha ca, bun bo hue, half order of chicken wings & the everything coconut. Friendly servers, but they seemed a bit unorganized. They gave us 2 sets of utensils, but just 1 napkin. The dessert came first, then the noodles, then the wings when we were more than halfway through our meal. Good portions, we ordered a small bun cha ca and bun bo hue and both were pretty filling. The bun cha ca broth is light and tastes like it was made in house. The fish cakes are also made in house. It was good but I felt this dish was missing something, and I wasn't a fan of the thin noodles. The bun bo hue was so good! I added a bit of hot sauce and the broth was perfect. Also loved the thick noodles, just how bun bo hue should be. The chicken wings were crispy and not oily, but didn't look like the photo. It tasted like shake n bake. The half order came with five pieces and garlic pepper seasoning. The coconut everything is so refreshing and is the best dessert if you like coconut. I asked for it to go and they put it in a bubble tea cup. That's when I noticed their huge selection of bubble tea, which I'll probably try next time. read more

Found a new local favourite for viet food! Huge portions and the lemongrass chicken was amazingly marinated, different than any other viet restaurant I've gone too. The chicken was super tender and dripping with juice, just how I like it! The menu has so much variety and everything was well worth it for the price. Highly recommend coming here! read more

Pho 68 - Grilled minced pork & chicken, house special pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

Very tasty, well above average vegetarian/vegan pho. I came for lunch and ordered a large vegetarian pho ($12.95 plus tax; the small is $11.95 plus tax, for reference). The soup came out in under 10 minutes. You get an enormous portion with perfectly cooked thin rice noodles, loads of tasty and thinly sliced vegetarian ham, fried tofu puffs, broccoli, cabbage, carrot, and white onion. The broth had a nice depth to it, with some gentle five spice/anise character and plenty of tasty saltiness; it's a sodium bomb, but very addictive and balanced. Their homemade chili oil makes for a really nice addition. Good, quick service, very reasonably priced, and a comfortable environment. All in all, very solid place for vegetarian pho. read more

Pho 68 Edmonds is a fairly new pho restaurant in Burnaby. They use quality ingredients and the portions are quite large for an affordable price. We loved how their flavours differ from other pho restaurants; however, as much as we wanted to love this new pho place, we find that the food in general was slightly too salty for us. Unsure if their food contained MSG, but we were very thirsty afterwards. Our overall dining experience was good, the employees were friendly and the ambiance of the restaurant was nice. Covid Protocols: Customers are required to sanitize their hands and to write down their information upon arrival. All tables were 6ft apart with dividers between tables. Sauces were brought to the table after you order. PRICE｜$ 。$11.95 Pho Dac Biet (Large) +$2 for 1 spring roll 。$14.95 Grilled minced pork and chicken rice read more

Yay! Another new pho spot in Burnaby. Fiancé and I love pho, so we were happy to find out that Pho 68 opened up in Burnaby. When I went in to pickup my food, it was actually quite busy with dine-in customers (we had ordered on a Monday night), so that was a good sign already! I ordered their No. 1: Pho Dac Biet, while fiancé got his favourite Vietnamese dish: Bun Bo Hue. I also decided to order a Banh Mi sandwich (Vietnamese cold cut) and a fresh minced pork salad roll for an appetizer. I must say, everything was quite delicious. I really loved the broth in my Pho Dac Biet and there was a generous amount of protein in there. I also really loved the Banh Mi (probably my favourite of them all). You can tell the bread was baked fresh and it was packed with quality ingredients. Definitely will be ordering from here again. And FYI, now might be a good time to try as they have a 15% off promo currently going on. read more

Pho 68 (don't ask me where the other 67 are) recently opened up in South Burnaby. If you're not sure what type of pho to order, a good bet is usually the "dac biet" which is basically the house-special pho. The Pho Dac Biet ($11.95 for large) comes served in a massive bowl with thin rice vermicelli noodles and is laden with steak, brisket, tendon, tripe, fatty flank, and beef ball. There's a good amount of fillings here for the price. While the pho broth wasn't overly flavourful, I thought it was a pretty okay version. read more

Pretty average pho place - reminds me of pho 99 in Coquitlam. We ordered 2 beef pho, seafood egg noodles, roll combo and chicken wings (really tasty powder that comes with it). Everything tasted good except the beef pho noodles might have been slightly overcooked. The egg noodles tasted more like Chinese wonton-style noodles just fyi.

Great place for Vietnamese food in the Edmonds area. Recently opened, it is quite roomy with lots of seating and clean. We got a small pho, pork banh mi, and a cold Vietnamese coffee. The pho was delicious with the slices of beef cut just right. The banh mi had a soft bread with just the right amount of crisp on the outside. The pork was well marinated with lots of flavor throughout. The Vietnamese coffee had a good mix and was just strong enough. Highly recommend when in Burnaby! read more

This location become a favorite 'go to resto' for us but from the time we discovered this place to date it increased its prices continuously and unbelievably increased up to 40%!!! Who will come to this resto if the prices keep on soaring high - true that everything is going up but increase prices every so often? Who can afford to come and visit this place every time? Servings changed a bit - maybe not a lot of customers noticed it, but I did. Change of serving and higher prices will bring down number of customers visiting this place just like the other businesses. read more

Why not?! The ambience is welcoming. Tidy. Very charming and well organized, where my eyes can reach. Staff are efficient from what I can tell. It is a new place! Menu is neat and well-written. Washroom was clean during my visit as I remember. I won't use it if it wasn't. :) So far, we've only tried three items here: Special Pho No. 1. Good. A bit on the salty side. I am not sure if it was just my tastebuds cause my husband seemed to enjoy it and finished mine when I didn't get to. :)) He will complain if it was terrible. So I assume it was just me. :P Grilled Lemongrass Pork. Quite juicy, dripping in juice as I bite, a bit sour than what I am used to. Roll Combo (Spring Roll, Salad Roll and Pork Roll). Brother loved it. I think I liked it. Husband didn't try. We've been there twice or thrice. It is a convenient location. The parking is accessible. It's a no pay one, so it is good! :) https://youtu.be/wRLQUUMq0kM read more

Pho 68 opened up just before indoor seating was closed down a couple of months back. They did amazing in a quick turn around to online ordering and even offered a discount. The Pho & Bahn Mi's are tasty! As are the spring rolls. The salad rolls are meal upon themselves. The staff are also really nice and have been known to tease on occasion. It's great to have people interact like that as it's something I've been missing over the Covid pandemic. read more

Fairly new restaurant in the neighborhood and really liked the food. Last week witnessed a horrible practice - staff multitasking from cleaning/sweeping the floor 'while' people are still dining in; stopping n placing the broom & dustpan in middle of restaurant and grabbing food served from kitchen and serving it to customers without washing hands and likewise serving drinks and granbing it from the lips of glasses and that was straight from sweeping floors. Ugh! Now, I ordered for pickup first time and soup ended in the plastic bag and not the container, RAW MEAT in a plastic bag UNSEALED so blood leaking to cooked noodles. DISGUSTING! AND VERY UNSAFE PRACTICE. Seriuosly? Were the staff here actually had FOODSAFE TRAINING??? HOW WERE THEY ABLE TO GET A PERMIT TO OPERATE WHEN THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT FOOD SAFETY RULES? read more

NEW RESTAURANT ALERT. * Pho 68 just opened up in Burnaby BC and they have a phenomenal wide range of selection to choose from. Nice variety of pho, rice dishes, desserts, drinks and even vegetarian options! * #1 - pho bac biet (S-$10.95 / L - $11.95) ~ the soup base is nice and flavourful and they have a good portion of noodles and beef! The beef is ultra tender and easy to chew! Plus it tastes amazing with the hoisin sauce, sriracha mix and the chilly oil mix! * #19 -bun cha ca (S-$10.95 / L - $11.95) ~ this is made with their house made fish cakes! They are very bouncy and flavourful. The broth is not too fishy which is good. And also housemate broth! * #20 - bun bo hue (S-$10.95 / L - $11.95) ~ this is not oily and if you know I LOVE this soup base. They use thick noodles which is the authentic way, the soup isn't too rich and overpowering I do wish it had a bit more lemongrass to elevate more flavours. * Side Spring roll ( 1pcs- $2.95, 2pcs +$2.55) ~ the spring rolls were delicious, very crispy and very flavourful. I love some crunchy rolls! * #73 -com ga suon nuong ($14.95) ~ nice juicy chicken and pork chops. Very nicely flavoured reminds me of Malaysian marinate! The rice is nice with the ginger and garlic on top. Super flavourful! * #90 - bun bo xao ($14.95) ~ lemongrass marinated beef on top of vermicelli and veggies! The beef was nice and marinated. I would suggest to sub the vermicelli for rice as it tastes so much better with the ginger/garlic rice! * Everything coconut ($5.50) ~ game changer every coconut lover MUST get this! It's so delicious, and tasty! Not too sweet and very refreshing I'd come just for this! * Thank you for having us #media #mediatasting. * Swipe for another face reveal photo! * 8/10 ~ everything was so delicious and flavourful, I did wish the bun bo hue had more lemongrass to elevate the flavours more. * 10/10 ~ the price and portion ratio is perfect! I'd say it's such a steal! Also 15% off right now!. * 8/10 ~ info gathered, mask required, spaced out, some tables were a bit together but enough room for social distance! read more

This new spot is an all round winner in my book. Value? We ordered the small and were concerned that we got large by mistake. Yeah. :) Quality? Ordered Hot & Sour Seafood and were 'wow'ed by the freshness of both the seafood and veggies. Then there's the rolls. Excellent in both size and quality - and the best peanut sauce ever. Service? Pro. Prompt. Focus on getting food to customer rather than standing about gushing. Place? 'No nonsense' meets 'sleek'. Practical chic. And it has very high ceilings with a massive venting duct system that's a massive plus today. Being there's a very broad pedestrian ... I'd call it plaza before I'd call it sidewalk ... I'm hoping outdoor tables will appear with the spring. An all round 'win'. read more

This restaurant was right under our AirBnb and we went there in desperation as we were cold, hungry and we were worried no place else would be open. We were pleasantly surprised at how good it was. They give A LOT - we liked that they packed the contents separately from the broth and they gave a lot of bean sprouts. We ordered the won ton pho, seafood pho, won ton soup and spring rolls. All were really good. The spring rolls were HUGE and tasty without being oily. We also ordered a bubble drink while we waited and that was delicious as well. We would definitely go again!! read more
