It was after lunch and only had a couple of diners in. We were offered hot or cold tea. We decided to share a bun cha ca (vermicelli fish paste noodle soup), ground pork In betel leaves and a bun cha Hanoi (vermicelli salad with grilled pork). We thoroughly enjoyed it. They are generous with their portions. Staff was friendly and the food was brought out fast. I would come back to try their other menu items or reorder the same.

New place to try Bun Rieu ~~~~~~…read more A relatively new restaurant in the Midland & McNicoll plaza. Among all these new Vietnamese establishments throughout the city, my go-to priority is always the places where Bun Rieu is available. Excitedly drove up here! We ordered: # Bun Rieu # Rare beef and Brisket Pho My Bun Rieu was a bit disappointing. It had more porky flavour than crab's. So my "crab flavor craving" (which I look for in Bun Rieu) was not satisfied. Also - I expect Bun Rieu to arrive piping hot, but it didn't. The first sip was enough to let me down as I would not have the sensations that I crave for in Bun Rieu. We had mixed reactions about Rare Beef and Brisket Pho. The soup was darker - we are accustomed to clear soup, so it was new to us. May be regional differences, which was fine. Then we were so impressed by the meat - textures (both rare beef and brisket) were very very tender and the thickness were perfect. The meat was one of the best that we have had. However, we felt that the soup lacked depth. But again - the meat was addictive-ly good! Located in a plaza with plenty of parking space.

CASH ONLY. Pho Dau Bo is still one of the original Vietnamese restaurant chains around since the…read more1990s. They're known for their giant big bowls of beef rice noodle soup topped with green onions and white onions, served with bean sprouts and herbs. Their spring rolls* are really delicious and calamari is good too. P42 (XL) - Extra large sized bowl of house special assorted beef pho was really a decent option to try since it had some well-done flank, rare beef, beef ball, beef tripe and soft tendon. The extra large size could be fine for someone with a big appetite and ingredients are pretty much the same as what's in the large size bowl. A good accompaniment to the pho is their appetizer A1 - "Vietnamese style" deep fried spring rolls*. They're crunchy, crispy, filled with pork and shrimp, and served with a bit of lettuce salad. These spring rolls are some my top picks here. To add variety to the meal the appetizer A5 - Deep fried battered tofu (10 pieces) served with a tangy sweet chili sauce was a way to add some protein packed appetizers to the meal. This place is good for those who appreciate a reliable old style broth taste and don't mind a simplicity in ambiance. If traditional is more up your alley than "aesthetic", this place is for you.

With this location being the closest, we have eaten here many times before but have never felt compelled to write a review before as it was always just average. Until today... Today's lunch was different though. Maybe it was the blistery snowy and rainy weather that elevated the noodle bowls to another level but everything was just right. From the warm tea that was brought out as soon as we sat down, the unfussy table service to receiving our order in under 10 min of ordering. And the noodles were soooo money. Broth was flavourful without any spice overpowering each other, noodles were thin and dry kind which were cooked perfectly, sure the meat could have been fancier, but that would have made the $13 price tag for a size large in today's economy impossible. I am happy to have re-connected with PDB and I look forward to returning soon.

Sup with all the neg reviews? Maybe things have changed since those reviews?…read more This place was pretty good IMO. The pho and bun were both really tasty and the service is quick and friendly. We tried the Vietnamese Hot Pot and it was good. Kinda like a deconstructed Pho. It is on my list as a good to Viet place now. The restaurant interior is modern but it is a small restaurant. Worth checking out!

Now this review is solely based on my experience eating their beef pho. As of this post, they had a…read morepromotion for any beef pho priced at $15.99 for $11.99, so I couldn't resist trying it out. I ended up getting the beef pho with tendon and it was decent. The soup base was a little salty, can't complain about the beef and tendon either. The pho noodles were great. Service was quick and friendly, but they seemed to be understaffed. Place is a bit small and it didn't help that they put out a hot pot burner in case you want to order their specialty. Overall I would rate this place 3.5/5 and would consider trying it out if there was a Special for the day.

Their menu offerings are delicious , so fresh you can see everything being prepared in the kitchen .It is different variety of dishes than most Vietnamese spots Where as many of the other Vietnamese restaurants I've been to have pad Thai it's not on this menu. The meats are very tender. The prices I think are quite reasonable for the portions that you get and so far the wait for a table has been no more than 10 minutes. I hate to recommend this place although it is in a shopping mall I guess there is at least a lot of parking and there's a rollup ice cream place just a few doors away as a option for something other than mango or rice pudding I think for the dessert choices. And a pet peeve of mine that seems more restaurants are doing , I don't understand the logic behind it, but they don't do separate billing on weekends it seems to be a thing happening at More and more restaurants so one person has to take on paying the bill and then chasing down people to get their payment, which is a bit of a drag and that will likely be why we will only go on a weekday

The thinly sliced beef was supposed to be rare, but was already cooked. Beef balls were rubbery. Overall the food was just OK. The server had an attitude. He did not want to be there. His demeanor was he did not want to serve us, and that we were an inconvenience to him. I guess he was having a bad day? He should have stayed in bed. I looked around and most of the other servers were not that enthusiastic either. I would pass on coming back.

Parking is somewhat limited, so it can be a little challenging during busy times, but it's worth the effort. I've visited both for dine-in and takeout, and the quality has been consistently excellent every time. The pho is flavorful, the ingredients are fresh, and the portions are satisfying. One thing to note is that the restaurant can get quite busy, and service may occasionally be a bit slower or less attentive. However, it never feels intentional, the staff are clearly working hard to keep up with the demand. What really impressed me was their customer service. During one visit, I accidentally spilled my drink, and the staff were incredibly accommodating. They quickly helped clean everything up and even brought me a replacement drink without hesitation. Overall, great food, great people, and a place I would happily return to. Highly recommended if you're looking for quality pho in a welcoming environment.

Parking is tight in the immediate area, but you can usually find spots along the main road nearby. The pho here is very solid and priced about what you'd expect. The quality is solid and there are plenty of options on the menu. I went with the house special pho and an order of spring rolls--both were good. In my opinion, they're easily comparable to some of the top Vietnamese restaurant chains in terms of flavour and quality. Service, however, was the weak point during our visit. We had to ask for bean sprouts after the pho arrived, and by the time they came the bowl was almost finished. It also took a while for someone to take our order. That said, the place was absolutely packed on a Saturday evening, so it seemed more like an understaffing issue than anything else. Overall, if I'm in the area I'd definitely stop by again for the food. Just go in expecting great pho and a bit of slower service.
