The cheapest pho in Edmonton and one of the tastiest too. Order & pay at the front, grab a seat and they'll bring it out to you. Under $10 a meal is really difficult to find these days, so we really appreciate the pricing here. A very limited menu with a couple appetizers, a few pho options, one vermicelli option and no rice dishes. The most expensive thing on the menu is the vermicelli for just under $12. Cash or debit only.

I drive by here so often but never thought of eating here untill recently. It's hard to find decent pricing for a bowl of Pho in Edmonton these days, and guess what, a bowl of Pho here was under $10! We ordered 2 bowls of Pho Du Special Noodles ($9.95) and one order of the Taste Everything Vermicelli Bowl ($11.85) and all that food for under $34 including gst. The size of the bowl wasn't large or small, rather medium size in my opinion and it had the right amount of food. I didn't leave still feeling hungry but also didn't leave feeling very full (food coma style...lol). Definitely worth a try if you love Pho and on a budget!

Small place small porton. Pho broth was very flavourful. Toppings are fresh but I find the noodles were a bit hard. Price is definitely cheap so not going to complaint. There is no service as you just order at the counter and find your own seat.

As a long time dweller of 127th street and a Vietnamese food fanatic, Pho Du is my go-to place for vermicelli. The inside is extremely clean, modern, and lets in a ton of natural light. The owner and the woman that's always at the front are extremely friendly and eager to please. And, well, the food....it's fantastic. Everything tastes flavorful and fresh! Meat and springrolls aren't charred to death like a lot of other places. When Pho Du first opened I immediately became a regular and the owner would often sit with me and ask me what I found good and bad about his establishment and what I would change and leave the same. I was extremely flattered that he was genuinely interested in what I had to say and that he even bothered to asked me at all! I was further impressed that he actually took some of my suggestions! It's really great to know that some restaurants value customer opinions and put their needs first. I have been to dozens of Vietnamese Food restaurants (I love them so!) and Pho Du is definitely #1 on my list!

I really like how this place is set up. You walk in, order your meal, get your beverage, and sit. They will bring the food to you. It is quiet and relaxed place to enjoy your pho. The food is amazing. Good portion sizes. And appetizer is good for two people, with the pho, you will definitely not be leaving hungry. They were out of the salad rolls when we were there, but we were able to get the shrimp spring rolls with pork and they were delicious.

Went here after a jiu jitsu tournament with some friends from the gym. We were starving after a long day of competition. The place is clean and nicely decorated in a contemporary fashion. Pho Du has cafeteria style ordering with a very small menu displaying a handful of different options for pho, vermicelli bowls and appetizers. The prices were average and the service was friendly and smiley :) My soup came out in a smaller portion to what I'm used to, but had good portions of perfectly cooked noodles, rare beef, chewy tripe and a piece of savory tendon. I asked for chili oil to be added to make the broth spicy and it came out perfectly. I ate the whole thing! As an appetizer, I ordered shrimp spring rolls. I didn't really like the sweet chili sauce they came out with, but the rolls themselves were very nice. No vietnamese coffee :(

The need to try their Pho Sate brought me back to Pho Du. The place is still pretty new, extremely clean and well maintained; possibly the cleanest Pho restaurant I have seen in town. Ordering was easy, #2 Pho Sate for $10. The place was empty, it was a little after the lunch hour but I was somewhat surprised how empty the place was. The staffs were really friendly and the pho came very quickly (perhaps because I was the only one in the restaurant). When the pho arrived, I could truly smell the heavenly aroma of Pho Sate, it smelled like they have the right blend of chili and herbs in the broth. The broth was fiery red with loads of green herbs floating in it, it looks good and smelled great. The first sip brought tears to my eyes... it was good and spicy!!! I was somewhat expecting a toned down, Canadianized version of Pho Sate. Not so, definitely not for anyone who does not like spicy food. I love my food spicy and this is right in the sweet spot for me in terms of heat level; for many, this dish would be too spicy - order it at your own risk. Condiment wise, not all of the usual suspects were there: basil, lime, fresh chili... but no sprouts; highly unusual for a pho restaurant to not offer sprouts. Portion wise, there were 4 slices of raw beef on top of a small handful of noodles. I think I can easily eat two bowls for lunch so I would suggest that the portion is inadequate for $10. So what is the verdict? Place is awesomely clean, the service was friendly and fast, the broth is good... really good, the portion was small, no sprouts & limes... I really have mixed feelings about this place so I can only give them a 3 stars rating.

There's a couple of tables inside and a few chairs by the window. There's also a few tables outside in the front yard. We ordered an Iced Vanilla Latte with oat milk and a Chai with oat milk. For sandwiches, we ordered a Veggie Wrap with chicken and a Reuben. I was very impressed to see one guy behind the counter making food, taking orders, serving, and just handling everything going on. I was very impressed with my latte. Coffee was flavorful, sweetened perfectly, and oat milk was creamy too. Honestly, I felt like the coffee here was better than even some coffee shops in the area. Great quality coffee. We got our sandwiches and were pleasantly surprised that they were also served with fruit. We had a couple slices of oranges and watermelon, it was so cute. Our sandwiches were delicious. The Veggie Wrap was tasty, full of fresh veggies, and portion size was great too. And the Reuben was hearty, meat quality was top notch, and overall really good. We even talked to the Leonardo himself. He was very down to earth and friendly. One thing I really liked was that he was upfront about what wasn't available and always told me and other customers when he could get to them. I appreciated the honesty. That man was HUSTLING. I have nothing but great things to say about this place. We'll definitely be back and I'll recommend this place to anyone for good food, coffee, and that cozy comfortable cafe vibe.

Pals Sandwiches

Pals Sandwiches

PALS!!! I have been a huge fan since their opening day in 2022 and it's about time that I finally…read morewrite about them! Part of the venerable Strathcona restaurant monopoly of The Next Act (the OG), Meat (the meaty one), Pip (the brunchy one), and Marlo (the taco one), Pals holds their own as the sandwich one. This five-restaurant stronghold wouldn't work if each and every one of them wasn't so dang good. But they are. Pals showed up on the scene after Pip moved across the street and there was enough room in the building to fit a delightful little sandwich shop in there as well. Pals to the left and Pip to the right - and one (beautiful) shared washroom downstairs for both. It's a pretty harmonious arrangement as far as I can tell! Pals might be a small little sandwich guy but it boasts a beautiful outdoor patio in the summertime that just about doubles the space. Named Favourite Handheld on the Edmonton Food Faves We Crave 2024 list and most recently awarded Best Sandwich 2025 in EDify Magazine, you'll also find them on the Worldwide Faves section of this very website. The interior is somewhat small but very bright and fresh. Casual light wood high-tops, counter seating, a few bench seats near the back, and the aforementioned patio. You'll also note pops of their signature yellow, especially on their unmistakable brick facade outside. The restaurant feels breezy and gives off a comfortable vibe that makes you want to "stop in to grab a quick sandwich." And maybe people-watch out the window for a few minutes. The staff is also super friendly which makes you feel like you're hanging out with your pals. (Ha! See what I did there?) Situated at a table on a Saturday evening, I was looking for the maximum Pals experience! Pals is all about the drinks and offers an impressive array of cocktails and beer, especially for such a small shop. The Winter Sangria sounded like a seasonally appropriate delight while their Caesar made with pepperoncini brine is an ideal compliment to their use of pepperoncini elsewhere on the menu. On this visit I opted for the Strathcona Sling (Gin, cherry liqueurs, orange & pineapple juice, bitters - $15.00) which not only sounded delicious but also might be the signature beverage of the entire neighbourhood. This drink sounds like it might be pretty sweet but I didn't find that about it. It's very refreshing and the grown-up flavours from the gin and bitters hold their own. What sounds like a kid's shirley temple actually tastes quite adult. This would absolutely be the quintessential patio beverage on a hot summer day during the Fringe - a cocktail that lives up to it's name. The Pals food menu is an extravaganza of sandwiches! There are fourteen different sandwiches in two categories; made hot or served fresh. There's usually a feature sandwich as well. Be prepared for sandwiches like you've never seen them before! But the snacks, soups, and salads are incredible as well and the quality certainly doesn't stop with the sandwiches alone. In an effort to dig into this part of the menu a bit more I thought it prudent to order the Soup & Salad Combo (Choice of soup & salad with house focaccia - $19.00). A great option if maybe you don't want a sandwich. Pals usually has two different soups and salads on the go so you're able to customize this dish with whatever combo you like. I chose the House Soup (dill pickle & spicy pepperoncini) and The Other House Salad (iceberg lettuce, tomato, green onion, blue cheese, bacon, buttermilk ranch). Let's start with the soup. How unique!! You've never tasted a zingy little bowl of soup like this before! I don't know about you, but I love a dill pickle soup very much (maybe it's my Eastern European ancestry) but the addition of pepperoncini totally changes the game. This soup packs a punch but in the most interesting and delicious way. And then the salad! I ordered this one because it sounded like a wedge salad (one of my favourites) without the wedge. A deconstructed wedge salad, if you will. And boy did it deliver! The flavours of tomato and bacon together are so classic and the generous chunks of crumbled blue cheese were perfection. I loved how well-dressed everything was - not a dry leaf in the house. A salad may sound like a boring thing to order but certainly not in this case. Let's not forget the focaccia which cannot be treated as an afterthought because it was incredible. This bread was impossibly light while still possessing the unctuous and oily quality that you want from a focaccia. The crust was impossibly crispy and dusted in salt. What a dream! Honestly, I know that you need to order a sandwich... But maybe you don't? I'm going to have an existential crisis about this. But yes, I obviously ordered a sandwich. This might be an unpopular opinion but I highly favour the "served fresh" sandwiches at Pals by a lot. The BLT is the best in the entire city, I swear. The Burrata is completely insane - I've never seen a stack of prosciutto so high.

The sandwiches were good, the service was perfect, the ambiance was sandwich restaurant. Clean,…read moreSwedish style decor.
