Solid 4.5 stars. I think the resto is still relatively (less than 1 year open) fresh/new. For me, what is really making me and my friends come back often is the pricing. I don't know if it was strategic on their part, but they have effectively undercut some of their biggest viet competitors by $3-4 on a lot of their items which to me makes this resto rank VERY HIGH in terms of value because of their also huge portions. Admittedly, the taste of their pho broth still doesn't beat Ngon Corner in Richmond Hill for me but they have some items that I can't find on a lot of resto menus. For example, the signature grilled meat platter is amazing. It says serves 2-4 ppl on the menu and I think that's pretty accurate. My friend and I shared one and we're big eaters so we shared it between the two of us and actually felt full! They also PACK the platter with ingredients and don't skimp on anything which is awesome. You love to see it. Also, I came with the gf and the curry is quite layered in terms of flavour. But for me, the most underrated item is the tomato beef brisket noodle soup. Damn, that tomato broth SLAPPED. Better broth than a lot of chinese soup noodle places I've been to and the brisket was also very tender. Even though Ngon Corner is still packing the most flavour in their pho broth, I found myself somehow gravitating to this place with more and more visits because of the sheer value and pricing (I've also told a lot of ppl that they're quite affordable compared to some of the other Viet stalwarts in Markham/RHill). Hopefully this continues and they don't get greedy and decide to increase the prices! read more

There are so many new pho places popping up! I was excited to try this one because I was enticed by the seafood tower. The top tier was all mango salad - my favourite! The tower is for 2-4 people and includes fresh rolls, skewers, other appetizers, and some seafood. It was fun to try but I don't think it was anything special. The taste and flavour of the food is mediocre. We went on a weekday evening and they had two servers working. There were people coming in and out consistently during the time we were there. Maybe they were understaffed because I thought the service was quite poor, hence the two stars. They were friendly but very slow and kept forgetting stuff that we asked for. Anytime we needed something, we had to ask multiple times in order to get it. Whether it be water, more sauce, getting the bill, etc. I won't be returning here with the plethora of other pho places in and around the area. read more

Overall the place was ok. Medium sized restaurant, decently decorated, but the layout is a little awkward. They're not made to fit large groups and when we went for dinner, we saw that they had to put tables together to fit groups of 6 or more. This caused an issue as any party with a smaller group, 4 or less ( we were 2) were then left with no place to sit and had to wait longer. We ended ip waiting with two other smaller parties for a bit until the larger groups cleared out. The food is good and prices are fair, cheaper than other viet places now that this cuisine is popularized. We had the bun ba hue and beef and spring-roll vermicelli. Both were flavourful and tasted authentic. Portion size was good as well. Where Im docking stars is the extremely slow service. My plate of vermicelli did not come out until my partner was almost finished with his meal. I waited 35 mins for my meal...which was ridiculous as viet food normally comes out fairly quick. We also had to follow up on the order as none of the servers came by to tell us what was going on. I do think this place is worth trying, just dont come on a wknd when its busy, they cant manage the volume. read more

Pho Bun Bun - Beef vermicelli - Vietnamese Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Excited to see another Viet place opened up. I know there's a lot of them, but it's one of my favourite cuisines so the more, the merrier!!! We came for a lunch visit and ordered a pho dac biet to share, a grilled pork and chicken on rice, and a fresh rolls platter that included a ton of delicious stuff to wrap. The pho was ok - not my favourite. I felt the broth lacked flavour and there was really not much noodles in the bowl. We had more meat and bean sprouts than anything in there, so I wouldn't come here for the pho again. The grilled meat with rice was great - just what you'd expect. Well grilled and seasoned meat with rice and fish sauce. The platter though was the highlight. It had 2 shrimp on sugar cane (which I felt was too soft in texture), cucumbers, veggies, herbs, vermicelli, grilled pork, grilled beef, and grilled chicken. They serve it with 8 small rice papers and you are provided with the water to wet and wrap it yourself. While I loved this platter, 8 wraps was not enough. Considering the low cost of those, I was really shocked that they wanted to charge an additional $2.50 for 8 rice papers... It's not even the full size rice papers - it's the tiny ones that are the diameter of an adult person's hand. It was a bit disappointing. But all being said, the food was great (minus the pho), and the service was really kind. I'm really excited to have another viet spot to choose from and will definitely want to order that platter again. I'm curious if they have it for take out because I have a whole package of rice papers at home haha! read more

In a world where the prices of Viet cuisine is skyrocketing, it is refreshing to see this place offer more affordable options while maintaining good quality of food. Service is a bit slow at time as there is 1.5-2 front of house staff. Food does come quick so once you order, you will be eating soon! Chicken pho - Was a bit surprised to see that the chicken comes on a separate plate from the bowl of noodles and chicken soup. Chicken felt almost like a hainanese chicken with the ginger scallion sauce. There was a good ratio of noodles and broth as well. Would highly recommend. Supreme grilled meats on rice - There was a good amount of protein in this dish. The fish sauce was also very good. Unfortunately I am not a fan of the marinade they used for the chicken and the meats did not have a good char flavour as I've come to expect from other viet restaurants. Would not get agian. Viet coffee - This was super tasty, every sip tasted like drinking chocolate. Would definitely get again! read more

We ordered the Signature Grilled Meat Platter, Grilled Chicken and Spring Roll Vermicelli and the Bun Bo Hue (not pictured) for three people and had leftovers. The platter was a great portion and could easily feed two people, if not three, if that was the only ordered item. It came with sugarcane shrimp, beef, pork, chicken, lettuce, cucumber, vermicelli, and a couple spring rolls. I wish they would provide more rice paper since there was a lot of meat and vermicelli remaining after we used the 8 rice paper pieces that came with the platter. I've been too other Vietnamese restaurants offering similar style platters and they offer additional servings of the rice paper for free. The Bun Bo Hue was pretty good - mild to medium spicy and it had a variety of meats. The service was great. The servers were attentive and quick. They provided fish sauce in a container for our take out leftovers. The interior is well lit and the tables are spaced well apart from each other. Payment is only cash or debit. The only limiting factor for me to visit again is the parking lot. There were limited spaces as it is shared with other establishments. I waited around 15 mins before finding a spot. read more

It's a small restaurant. Clean and quaint. The food was decent. Service was good. The brisket was too lean. I think it would taste better if the meat was a good balance of fat and meat. The price is comparable to most viet place. read more

Theres so many pho places in Markham that you can basically find one on each block. But a good pho place is harder to find. And bonus is that portions are large and prices are very reasonable. We ordered the pho that comes with the big bones, and their special pho (which has a bit of everything, raw beef, tripe, flank etc), and their rice with the grilled meats (beef, chicken, pork) with egg. As i mentioned above the portions were very big. Suprisingly big. The pho had a good amount of meat on top, and I was expecting a small handful of noodles in the broth, but when i dug my chopsticks in, there was a huge wad of noodles! For a large pho, if i recall correctly it was only $15. Only down side was i found the the pho broth had some msg in it as i felt thirsty after. read more

We checked out Pho Bun Bun and really enjoyed our meal! We ordered the Signature Grilled Meat Platter and the Coconut Fresh Fruit Slush. The platter was delicious, the grilled meats were tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Everything tasted fresh and was well put together. Our only complaint? It only came with 8 pieces of rice paper, which wasn't quite enough given how generous the rest of the platter was. A few extra wraps would've made the experience even better. The Coconut Fresh Fruit Slush was refreshing and creamy, a great complement to the savory platter. Service was quick and friendly, and the vibe of the place was casual and clean. Definitely worth a visit if you're craving solid Vietnamese comfort food! read more

Based on a take out order, I had a great meal from here and would definitely go back to try more or eat the same thing. I ordered a Thai Iced Tea and Hainanese Chicken Rice. The Thai Iced Tea fell a bit short with the tea flavors. The balance was missing, and it just does not hit the spot the way a good Thai milk tea should. The Hainanese Chicken Rice comes with a soup and salad. The soup was a nice surprise, much larger than what you usually get and savory. The rice portion was a bit small and slightly hard, not fluffy enough to come apart easily. The chicken was yummy. It had two layers with yellow skin, cooked just right, and was really flavorful. It did feel like it was on the edge of being overpoached, and it seems to have a slight drunken chicken taste which I didn't mind. There were only two sauces and I wish they came in bigger containers. One was a ginger and oil mix, and the other seemed like a vinegar, ginger, and soy blend. They worked fine with the chicken, but they were not the usual sauces I am used to for Hainanese Chicken. I also enjoyed the pickled salad that came with it. It was bigger than I expected and had mango, peppers, carrots, and taro. The mango was fresh. The deep fried taro strips added a great crunch, and there were also some crispy onion chips that were a nice touch. Overall, everything came together really well. Great portions, tasty, and definitely worth coming back for! read more

I saw someone post about this new Vietnamese restaurant in Markham and I knew I had to go try it out. It's not a large restaurant but has a good size tables for all sizes. I went around 7:30PM and it wasn't that busy but the parking was a pain to find. (Do keep that in mind as parking is limited) The food and service were great. The prices especially were affordable too compared to the standard Vietnamese restaurant. Highly recommend to try, if you get the chance to come by! read more

Decently sized restaurant that was very clean. Servers were attentive. As a table of four we shared a vermicelli rice paper (fresh rolls) platter and a bun bo hue (large size only). Both had a lot of toppings and was priced very well. We wished they included more than 8 pieces of rice paper wraps as 8 was definitely not enough to wrap even half of the meat and noodles on the platter. The meats were heavily seasoned and should be eaten with other things otherwise it got a bit too sweet and salty straight up. The broth in the bun bo hue was pretty good and there was a decent amount of noodles and meat. Overall, if in the area and craving viet, I would visit again. I still need to try their original pho! read more
