Delicious and abundant. A must try. Servers were exceptionally good. Huge portions. Super fresh.

Veggie pho with sate peanut (veggie) broth
Matt B.

I came for the veggie pho, as I saw they had a veggie broth option and a sate peanut option as well. A regular bowl is $15.75, a large is $16.75 and the sate peanut broth is $1.50 more (plus tax). This is pretty pricey for veggie pho compared to most places in town. My soup came out in 10 minutes. The portion was huge, with tons of broccoli, cauliflower, carrot, and cabbage, and a generous portion of medium thickness rice noodles. No tofu though, which would've been a nice touch. The sate peanut broth is a lot lighter and less rich than most places, somewhat lacking depth. It's still pretty satisfying, but they've got some work to do if they want to stand out among Vancouver's best veggie sate pho options. And especially given the price and lack of tofu, it's not a great value. Friendly service, standard hole-in-the-wall feel. Another decent pho place downtown with veggie options but far from the best.

Really do enjoy and appreciate having this clean, tasty and budget friendly eatery so close to me. I think I must eat here several times a month lol.

I cam here and had the house special along with their spring rolls and salad rolls. Very good food and very nurturing during a rainy spring day. Although this was during a pandemic, the host seated my friend and I outside on his patio and proceeded to bring in the traditional Pho shop table ware outside. We had the chopstick, spoons and napkin dispenser placed on our table and it was like eating inside....but outside. The broth was warm and tasty with light noodles and lots of meat. I ate the whole thing and even slurped the bowl. The spring rolls were very traditional as well as their salad roll. I had prawn salad rolls this time, but they actually have a mango one on the menu which I would like to try next time. This place is a wonderful little establishment that goes back a few years in this part of Robson st. Very good and very satisfying food on a fair weather rainy spring day.

Small rare beef pho
Guerric H.

I'm always on the hunt for the best pho bo and cha gio I can find, so it was only a matter of time before I stopped here. Frankly, I should have come sooner! The place has a nice, casual atmosphere that reminds me of the Viet place I used to eat at growing up, service is *incredibly* fast (they don't call it Express for nothing I guess), the chopsticks are oddly huge in a way that I kind of liked, there's free tea, and it's affordable to boot! Of course, what really matters is the food, and I'm happy to say the rare beef pho is excellent - I ate it all quite quickly and drank up the broth. But there are lots of places that do good pho - the thing that really divides Vietnamese restaurants in my personal book is how they make their cha gio spring rolls. Pho Express goes for the bubbly-skinned cha gio, and their rolls are heavy on the pork filling and lighter on the other ingredients. I think there's an egg yolk wash on the rolls, too, since there's a yellowish tinge and a slightly eggy taste to them. I liked them in that they were rather different than most cha gio, but they were a bit spongy, and didn't have the kind of density and thin skin I usually like best. So, overall, a nice, enjoyable place for sure, and I'll probably want to go again - but I haven't yet found a new favourite place for cha gio, so I'll have to keep looking!

Yesterday I have ordered a take out from the Pho Express Ankor Noodle House through Skip the dishes. Once my ordered has arrived and I took the food out I saw a staple in it!! The appetite was lost. I immediately called the restaurant to let them know but their reaction was pretty dismissive. They said that they don't know how it got there and that they didn't put it there. No apologies, no nothing. Absolutely careless about the service they provide. I used to like this place but will never order from them again.

Just want to say that this is the best Pho (Fah) in Vancouver. Not much else I can tell 'ya. Check it out. The small is enough for an old 40 something like me. And have the springrolls.

i'd been craving pho for a while, but wasn't sure where to go. i've been here a couple of times before, but had got vermicelli dishes and not pho. went here for the first time in a while tonight, the service was great, i loved the music and ambiance, they made my order so quickly! and it was great. very happy with this experience. affordable, efficient, high quality, good service, fun and comfortable environment - i definitely know where to go the next time i'm craving pho!

$6.25 Mango salad rolls (Updated Review)
Darryl P.

Ordered the $6.25 Mango salad rolls to go around 3:00PM on a Sunday. There was 10 patrons seated and my order was ready in about 5 minutes. Take away items included a plastic carry bag, styrofoam clamshell container, 2 uncut rolls, basic napkins, peanut sauce The first bite of the salad rolls revealed prominent lettuce and bean sprout flavours. The basic ingredients didn't deliver a great deal of flavour and the mango wasn't that evident. The peanut sauce had a nice texture with ok flavours. Peanut flavour could be more robust. The mango salad rolls offered a good value yielding slightly above average portion size with below average price. Limited use of veggies and subtle mango ingredient limiting overall flavours. Despite the larger peanut sauce container, mindful dipping was necessary to ensure enough was available for last bite. Would recommend 3.25 out of 5 stars Ingredients rice wrapper paper, rice noodles, mango, lettuce, cucumber, bean sprouts Rolls 318g

This place serves the best pho I've ever eaten in the city. I live in Eastvan and whenever my sister and I are craving a bowl of pho, we would rather take a 20 minute drive downtown than eat mediocre pho close by. Their broth is just very flavourful and, most importantly, it's very consistent time after time. Other than the well done beef and beef ball pho (#16 on the menu), I've also tried their vermicelli bowl, salad roll, mango salad, and durian smoothie. All of which were on par with my standards! Whenever I had to substitute or omit an ingredient or two the pleasant servers never fail to accommodate my request. I've been here many times and I really recommend this place to anyone that has a pho craving that needs to be satisfied!

We ordered the following: Tiramisu Latte Caprese Bite London Fog Apple Cookie Cherry Matcha Tonic Tiramisu Sea Salt Caramel Gelato The Cherry Matcha Tonic was pretty but wasn't too crazy about the flavor. I should have just gone with my original gut instinct and chosen a hot beverage like Hojicha Latte or something like that. I was sort of thirsting for something cooler for a change though, and the Cherry Matcha Tonic was the first "cool" drink that caught my eye so I decided to go for it. Won't do that again. Everything else was good though. The Sea Salt Caramel Gelato was the star of the show! In the store there's a sign beneath their gelato section that says "Canadian Gelato Champion". I believe it after tasting the Sea Salt Caramel! They had Nama Chocolates too. I was tempted to get some but...only so much a person's wallet and waistline can handle at one time. Will try the Nama Chocolate some other time. You can order in person here, or you can place an "Express" order at the Kiosk. We tried both ways of ordering. Ordered at the counter first and then after finished my Cherry Matcha Tonic decided I wanted to try the Sea Salt Gelato so then tried ordering that from the Kiosk. Most of the parking in this area is paid but I lucked out and got a free spot right around the corner from this place!

An update to my previous review. We heard that the London Fog drink was invented in Vancouver in…read more1997. Knowing how good 49th Parallel is with coffee I thought I'd try their version of the London Fog. I wasn't disappointed. In fact it was best London Fog I've ever had. I've had them at other places but I've never seen a preparation like 49th. They use loose leaf Earl Gray tea in a tall paper tea bag. They put the bag in your cup pour the steamed milk in and the tea steeps right into the milk. It's the smoothest London Fog I've had and isn't cloyingly sweet like many I've had.

We stopped by 49th Parallel Coffee in Vancouver and it was the first thing we ate after flying in…read moreearlier that morning. I was in need of a snack and this was a short walk from our hotel. 49th Parallel is well known for their thoughtfully sourced, house-roasted coffees and their cult-favorite donuts, but they also offer a small menu of sandwiches if you're looking for something more filling. It wasn't too busy when we got there, though most of the tables were taken. We ordered a mix of sweet and savory: the chestnut brûlée donut, a salted caramel old fashioned, and a couple of breakfast sandwiches--the Doug and the Cascadia--both served on soft, buttery brioche buns. My other half also grabbed an Americano to go with it all. The chestnut brûlée donut was my fav of the bunch. The chestnut flavor was perfectly balanced--nice and light. The sandwiches were also good, especially thanks to that pillowy soft brioche. Overall, 49th Parallel was the perfect stop for a small, simple snack! Would recommend.
