We came here with friends living nearby. They seem surprised when I told them that it's a restaurant with lots of hype on social media because they just thought it's a local restaurant in their neighborhood It's also my first time being in Pho Anh Vu. I am very satisfied with all the dishes. They don't just put all the budgets in marketing I want to mention their hot coffee, very nice and special flavor. It's very suitable to drink a cup of their Vietnamese coffee after meal. their servers were also very friendly and gave my naughty son a little toy. I'm very grateful for that
Came here bc it was close to our hotel after a long day of driving. Came an hour before close (11 pm) and felt grateful for the opportunity to have a late night warm cooked meal option. My husband and I both ordered two small no. 15s, which is exactly what we needed after a long travel day. Staff were friendly and food came out quick. They have limited menu options at night and also limited seating options. They don't do their full kitchen so keep that in mind. The late night meal was appreciated but I wish they had more signage or it was clearer when we walked in about the late night limitations (like a separate menu or a roped off seating area). We had to be redirected several times throughout the night.
Had to give this new location a try! Perfect spot that's close by. The pho was great, broth is tasty and not overly salty. Tons of meat! Bun was also very good, so much food that we had to take half home. But the best was the fried spring rolls. Hands down, best I've had in ages! Chicken on broken rice was the only miss.... and the portion was not generous like the noodle dishes but that was ok, because the chicken was a bit undercooked and my teen didn't enjoy. Overall, will come back and stick to the spring rolls and noodle dishes!
Consistent quality, flavourful broth and delicious food, very quick food preparation. Authentic Vietnamese restaurant. Clean restaurant with many tables (mostly 4s). Large groups might be harder on busier nights. Service is normal (not exceptional, not bad). On the pricier side, portions are a good size which makes up for it. Cash and debit only.
This was one of my frequent Vietnamese restaurants I enjoyed having dinner every weekend how ever this time it didn't live up to my expectations. Browsing thru their menu I decided to a rare beef and cooked flanked Pho, on the side are the veggies. To my dismay Ifind the noodles too soggy and falls apart when I tried to pick them up with the chopsticks. Overall the soup is good flavorful and light. I forgot to take a photo of the fried spring rolls which is too oily to my likings. I would probably think twice before going to this place again, it's time to check the Richmond Hill branch to see how they compare
Stopped by Pho Anh Vu for lunch on a Friday around 1pm. Busy but no wait for a table. Food came out quickly after ordering. We got the special pho and the grilled pork and chicken on rice. Would come again!
I had the most incredible experience at this authentic Vietnamese pho restaurant in Richmond Hill! The food was absolutely delicious, and the interior decor had such a lovely Vietnam vibe. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. their soup broth - it was made with beef bones, and it was so flavorful and fresh. I highly recommend this place to anyone craving Vietnamese cuisine. They have a promotion going on! If you dine in or take out for over $50, you get a free dessert. You've got to check it out!
This plaza parking can get really busy with all the restaurants and the McDonald's drive through so getting in and out was a pain. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and has many seats. The cool feature is you sit down and scan the QR code to place your order. It's super efficient service and the server I had was nice and friendly. I love the fact that they had the proper sauces at the table but also had 3 types of chilis (pickled peppers, chopped fresh peppers and chilli oil) I had to use all 3 of them. Fresh shrimp rolls were amazing as a starter dish. Had the special pho (small) and it was very good. The broth was clear and tasted good. The noodle selection I liked better than expected. Meat, tendon and tripe were good and the ratio was meat to noodles was fair. Really good Pho place, probably in my top 5 in the GTA.
This is a good Pho place in Richmond Hill. The food is very flavorful. I like the chicken wings and the spring rolls a lot. Noodle bowls come in big portions. Enjoyable dinner. Will definitely come back again!
I had to come to the rhill one after a great experience at the Markham restaurant. The menu is the same, but the food from one did outshine the other one. Service and décor was very similar, although the Markham location seemed to have a higher density of tables. We were seated on the sides with seats to the wall, but the cushions were spaced out ~ a meter apart which made it awkward when they pushed tables together. Fried spring roll - Super thick and super crispy, would highly recommend as an appetizer. The fish sauce was super flavourful and I always look forward to soaking it in the sauce. Shrimp rice roll - This is the non-fried version wrapped in a rice paper with lettuce, pickled carrots, radish and shrimp. The veggies were generous and were fresh. The peanut sauce was delicious and might consider renaming this dish to peanut sauce with shrimp rice roll. Shrimp and papaya salad - Another great appetizer. Shrimp was grilled well. The salad had chillies and fish sauce making it a good balance of sweet, savoury and spicy. The papaya was the perfect texture of crunch. Overall a highly recommended dish. Deconstructed pho - Its not what it is called, but it is basically this. The nice thing is that you can see all the ingredients laid out infront of you before it goes into the soup. This means that you can dip your beef for however long in your bowl to get the beef cooked to your liking. The stone bowl keeps your soup hot a little longer so that you can keep dipping your ingredients. Great idea and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It also came with a beef rib with a lot of beef on it. Definitely coming back for this again. Double chicken steak on broken rice - A bit disappointing after the expectation set from the Markham location. The chicken was cooked, but was not as tasty. It didn't come with the char flavour from the grill. The chicken was not as oily and so the broken rice was not as tasty. Maybe my expectation were high from before, but not looking to get this here again. Small garlic fried chicken wings - A small package of 6 wings that pack a sweet garlicky flavour. The wings as sticky and dense with flavour. The glutenous rice helps mello out the flavour. Getting past the sticky layer, you get to the crispy chicken wing. It was good, but am looking forward to try the spicy deep fried chicken wing. Coconut desert - Would not recommend here, the Markham location does it much better. This one lacks the variety of ingredients that the other one offers. Lots of great dishes but am very disappointed with the broken rice dish. I would come back to this location, but would not order the broken rice as the Markham location does it better.
I've heard so much about this place, and I had to go try it for myself. We came as a group of 4 on Sunday around noon, and there was a bit of a wait. But the restaurant was pretty big so it only took 15-20 minutes which wasn't too bad. I wanted to try the pho with the large beef bone since that's what I had heard about but I was told it was sold out. I did hear from someone else waiting that they actually only serve that for dinner. In the end I got the spring rolls and the pho dac biet. I got the small size and my partner got medium. The portions were pretty generous. Soup was good, not too salty. Most importantly the meat tasted fresh and they are pretty generous with it. The spring rolls had bits of shrimp and pork, along with veggies. It was freshly made, hot and crispy. Overall, I enjoyed the food and for a pho restaurant it's pretty nicely decorated with a faux Sakura tree and some lighting panels above that make it feel like you're outside almost.
UPDATE REVIEW. Came here for lunch yesterday and even though the restaurant was busy during lunch hour, we were able to get a table within 5 minutes. We ordered the goi cuon, Bun cha hanoi and bun thit nuong through our phone by taking a pic of their QR code provided on the table. We were served cold tea which was nice, since it was really hot yesterday. I noticed a lot of people ordered the big bone pho to share. I didn't care for their pho as I don't like the type of pho noodles they use. It's been opened for a while now and I noticed that the servers are confused about table numbers. Two orders of food came to our table, when it wasn't ours. It was the table beside us. We had to flag someone down to let them know it wasn't our order...TWICE. When our food did come out, which didn't take long at all, I found that the goi cuon was meh. It was very dry and the peanut sauce was very underwhelming, almost bland. I enjoyed the bun cha Hanoi, the pork patty had good flavours and the cha gio that came with my dish was crispy and light, and the grilled pork was okay. mr. Trans' bun thit nuong was nicely presented and it was pretty good too. The portions are big for the price you pay. Wasn't able to finish our food, but we left pretty satisfied.
Loved their first location, so excited for the new location in Richmond Hill! Absolutely love this pho restaurant that serves up authentic dishes. Their first location is near Yorkdale Mall and is just as good! They have the same aesthetics with the large pink cherry blossom tree in their restaurant, large waiting area, quick turnaround times and huge single stall washrooms (with blasting music). The wait is usually pretty short and reasonable time since this is a quick eats type of restaurant. Got seated within ten minutes for a table of two. Originally got seated at a table for two, but once the waiter saw our order of three dishes, he moved us to a larger table to fit our food items. No complaints here, as that means more room for us! Yay! To start, the condiments on the table are plenty! Make sure you try their pickled sliced garlic, it's so good with your food! Service is also quick and servers are great! Things we got: Special rice noodle soup (Pho) 10/10 - Comes with every type of beef cut/ meat. Broth is super flavourful and comes with a ton of green onions which I love. Portions are generous and there is a ton of meat in the pho. This is a classic and a must get. Bun cha 10/10 - My favourite dish from Hanoi, Vietnam. It really is the most authentic that I've tasted in the city, and I've been on the hunt for it ever since my trip years ago to Hanoi. The pork patties are formed and cooked perfectly and drenched in their sauce. Herbs and lettuce are fresh! If you're looking for something different other than noodle soup, this is it! Bun bo hue 10/10 - Don't let the intense red colour intimidate you. It's so fragrant and bold in flavour with a tolerable spice level! Another dish that is packed with meat and generous portions. Can't skip this one either! Overall, I love this place and find myself always thinking about the delicious food items I've tried here. Friendly staff, quick service, delicious food and close to home! Love it!
Damn, this is definitely the spot to get the ultimate OXTAIL PHO! At this Pho Anh Vu location, they are the only ones to offer a brand new way to enjoy the DIY (Do It Yourself) Pho! Ideal to share with friends and family, the Oxtail Pho comes packed full of flavour as the stewed oxtails continue to penetrate their natural flavour into rounding out the delicious freshly prepared broth that you can enjoy dipping the rare beef, beef balls, tripe and shank meat! The Stir Fried Rice Noodles with Beef and Veggies is very reminiscent of Pad See Ew with just enough wok hei flavour to bring out the smoky flavours! Overall, my family very much enjoyed this location of Pho Anh Vu and we cannot wait to return! read more

I was visiting family in the area, and we came here for dinner. I like that they offer different bowl sizes: regular, large, and extra-large. The broth really hit the spot with amazing flavor without being overly seasoned. If I lived nearby, I would come here often or whenever I'm craving pho. read more

Pretty interior but super loud music and talking. There were two of us so we got a two seater table. However, the condiments took up almost half the table so we basically had to shove ourselves to the edge/aisle and people kept on walking up and down. It was definitely the most uncomfortable. Food was not too bad but pho portion was quite small for the price. They poured way too much soup in such a small bowl so I could see the finger sticking into the soup..... soup base was not bad though but still prefer Pho Tai Bac, Q1 or Photime. The pork was surprisingly juicy and I liked the steamed egg. Chicken was a bit bland. Spring rolls were good. We also got an iced coffee to go and it was not bad. read more
This place is great! A friend and I stopped by quickly for a bite. Parking lot is big. The menu is affordable with plenty of variety. They provide complimentary House tea and we didn't have to wait too long for our meal. We both ordered 49. BÚN THỊT NƯỚNG, CHẢ GIÒ, CHẠO TÔM - Grilled Pork, Spring Rolls & Shrimp OnGrilled PorkGrilled Pork Sugarcane w/ Vermicelli Noodles Tasted so good and the noodles were perfect. Very filling for the price. Customer service was great. We were greated upon arrival and chose our seats. Restaurant is clean and bright Bathroom are clean abd smelt fresh. I would recommend and plan to go back soon read more

Another friend date night and we felt like Viet. Looking for a place in the Hwy7 area and I found this place online and had decent reviews. When we got there it was already busy with more than 10 people waiting, which was a good sign. There was only 2 of us so the wait was surprisingly short. Interior was nice which a big faux cherry blossom tree in bloom at the entrance. I ordered the my go to well done Flank and my friend got the grilled pork Bun. Pho sizes available were medium, large and Xtra large. I went in the middle and got the large. Came out piping hot and it was a good portion size. They had a good assortment of herbs to add to the pho but I found the more bean sprouts and herbs I added the broth became less tasty. I also found the meat pretty lean and over cooked. The noodles was more like Ho Fun noodles than traditional not wide Pho vermicelli noodles which I like more. Overall I was under whelmed. I much prefer the pho at Pho Co Duong near my place. full disclosure, I am quite particular with my pho. I normally don't try Pho in a new Viet place because I am so picky lol. I tend to go to places I know for Pho. This place seemed quite popular though, so I would recommend someone who likes Pho to try for themselves. My friend liked her Grilled Pork Bun so maybe I would come back to try the Bun next time. Service was good, even though it was busy. 3.5* read more
It hurts me to say... AVOID this location! The management has no idea how to run a restaurant. The seating number system is totally useless. Had a number to be seated next and the manager randomly seats 6 other tables other than the people that checked in and got a number first. Then dares say, oh.. I Don't know.... Seriously? How did you become the manager/ owner? The online ordering system they have plastered everywhere is NOT working and the servers are running around like chickens with heads cut off with no order or system. We were delivered food that we have not even been able to place an order from... Then when ordering their "specialty ". They dare say, sorry the other table that I seated in front of you ordered the last one and we are sold out.... Seriously, if I wanted to be aggravated, I would have gone to Yorkdale to find a parking spot Boxing Day than to step foot in this laughable establishment... Never again! read more
I have been to this restaurant a couple of times. They have a special pho that is served at 11am. The pho comes with 2 beef ribs with lots of meat on it and a beef bone with tendon which comes on a separate bowl. I think it's great value for $21 that's why it is sold out so quickly. Beef soup base is tasty and the portion is huge. You probably can't finish this if you don't a big appetite. The special pho is usually sold out before 12:30pm though. I also tried their grilled pork with spring roll on rice vermicelli. Again, a lot of meat and tasted great. Their special pho that is served at 4:30pm is a stone bowl pho that comes with 1 beef rib with a platter of meat on the side. Be careful to not overflow the stone bowl as the soup is super hot. I would suggest to pull the beef rib out first and put the raw beef and veggies in first to cool down the soup. Overall, I think this is an authentic Vietnam restaurant. Tasty beef soup base with little to no msg. Good portion of food but the price is slightly higher than average. If you are hungry and is craving viet food, this is the place to be. Most tables are for 4 people or less so if your party is more than 4, you should be prepared for a longer wait time. read more

Pho was outstanding which my husband ordered. I ordered the crab spring roll platter. Presentation was beautiful, however lacked crab meat and took some time to bring out. Definitely coming back for the Pho though.., the best I've had! read more
On a Monday, around their time of opening at 11 am, I called to place an order. They picked up the phone relatively quickly, then asked for my name and order. I was told it would take about 20 mins for my food to be ready. Upon entering, I was surprised with how beautiful their decor is. Definitely very different from many other Pho restaurants I've been to which are typically more low-key. This place has a beautiful flower tree near the entrance and spacious seating. Being around 11:30 am, there were a handful of groups dining in. I ordered two VERMICELLI BOWLS, one with GRILLED CHICKEN, and the other with GRILLED PORK AND SPRING ROLL. I definitely recommend their grilled pork over the chicken as it was much more flavorful. I also felt like the pork portions were better than that of the chicken. The spring roll was very on point as well, so I feel that's a must get item. They serve their bowls with a side of lettuce, cucumber, bean sprouts, and (barely) any shredded carrots - so I do wish they had pickled carrots and radish instead, but that's okay. Their fish sauce was tasty but less vinegary than some of the other places I've tried. I never say no to crushed peanuts and they even serve with a side of REALLY HOT peppers. Overall, service was very friendly. I was greeted upon entering and told to have a nice day when handed my food personally. Do note, this place is debit or cash only. read more
New pho spot in the area. It's probably my favourite pho spot. It gets super busy on the weekend and we had to wait maybe 20 mins for a table of 3. You place your order on your phone with the QR code on the table. It's nice to see more pho spots opening up as Pho Xin Chao down at Yonge closed down. While it's also my favourite pho spot it's also the most expensive spot around with a large bowl costing a whopping 18.95. I ordered the Pho Dac Biet (18.95) and it was giant. While you're paying a hefty price, there's a TON of toppings, noodles and broth. This broth is the most rich pho broth I've had so far. Great toppings, with a mix of rare beef, beef balls and tripe. I truly am looking forward to the next time I can come here! read more
Wow Like I said keep the pho hot for me!!! Finally found seating in this visit and ordered the small rare beef and beef balls pho. When it first came I noticed the size was pretty small But The taste of the soup and the overall quality of the meal more than made up for it. It truly is one of the best pho in the city. I do recommend you get the bigger sizes, they do get pricey but is well worth it. A side note: I love the condiments section for each table: lots of variety and it's very clean. I hope they keep this standard throughout the years, only time will tell. Overall an easy 5 stars And Will definitely return for more. read more
This is my go to pho place when I'm around yorkdale. I am so glad they opened a location in Markham. Owners are super friendly and nice. I came here 2 times in a row this week. Our group of 7 ordered the bo bun hue, chicken wings, crab spring roll and pho special. There were all really delicious and arrived nice and hot, just like how it tastes at their original location. The bo bun hue is my favourite and you can only get it ( Fri, sat,sun) and it's highly recommended you do because I've never tasted as good as this place makes it! AND chicken wings.. if there's anything you must get 85 has to be their chicken wings. THEY ARE DELICIOUS !! The only downside is that because it's new, they are taking longer than usual to deliver the foods in our table and yes, there are some language barriers between the servers as some do not really understand English at this location, however it's grand opening and it's hectic. read more
Good choices of Vietnamese food. Taste good, after eating it I was a bit thirsty. The Staff are kind and friend it does get busy and they are running around. Ambiance is nice there is a pink tree at the entrance. The tables space in between was a be tight. read more
Richmond hill has a new location for pho anh Vu, which is so much closer for me. We have 7ppl on wed night at 4:45, and since they only have small tables, so we seated next to the door. We ordered quite some dishes as in the pictures, all of them tasted great. The only thing is that some of the items were sold out already (at 4:45 PM?) and we have to switch to other dishes on the menu. It's better for smaller group of people, will come back for soldout items read more
Being a self professed pho expert, this new place is legit. Although it will not compare to my all time favorite Pho Bang on Mott in NYC, this place has great broth and a cool gimmick with a full rib pho special. The summer roll and spring rolls are excellent as well. Pork chop rice is forgettable. Stick with the pho! read more
Recently opened in the neighborhood, already a hit with the local residents. Welcome flower arrangements still staged around the front entrance. Normal menu Vietnamese food items. Went for the pho, although many people were ordering the grilled lemon grass pork which looked pretty good. My beef pho served hot and the soup was filled to the bowl brim. Plenty of rare beef slices, hope this continues and not just for the new opening. Noodles not overcooked and still firm to the bite. The slight cinnamon smell of the broth was intoxicating on a cold winter day. They actually gave you a whole red chilli pepper which is normally hard to get in the local Vietnamese restaurants I've eaten at. Chili pepper was super hot, normally I mash up the pepper in fish sauce and pour the mixture into the soup until the spiciness is at a level to my preference. The rest I use as a dipping sauce for the beef and noodle. Staff were surprisingly courteous and efficient. The gods have answered my prayers to have a good Vietnamese restaurant within walking distance of my residence. Pho makes the world go round and round. read more
Tried out this pho place on the weekend in order to try their weekend specials. Our party of three waited for 15 mins or so. The turnaround is fast since the restaurant is big and service is quick. We opted for the rare beef noodle soup, their special bo bun hue, the beef rib pho and an order of spring rolls. Overall the broth was very flavourful and portion sizes were quite generous. I took one star off because I felt my noodles for the bo bun hue were overcooked so the noodles were a little too soft for my liking. The spring rolls were also just okay. I felt the skin wasn't crispy enough and the filling inside the spring rolls weren't seasoned enough. I do like their condiment of offerings which include the normal hot sauce and hoisin sauce. They also provided different types of chillies and pickled garlic and peppers (which I loved). This place accepts cash or debit only. You can order via a QR code or with the server. Pay by going up to the counter at the end. read more

First off let set the stage, the price of food here is definitely not cheap! $16 for a small noodle, even with the post COVID inflation adjustment it is more like price at The downtown banking center area! However with the higher price, I comes with a higher quality of food. The soup is clear and flavorful. The meat is tender, not just some cheap barely eatable cut. The herb, I'm surprised to see Saw leaf actually served. It uncommon up here in the northern part of town, I can't recall any other restaurant up here actually has it! Restaurant is relatively new, so seating is clean is comfortable. I'll recommend this place for occasional visit only, mainly because of the price. read more
