    This was a pit stop for us on the way to Banff. It was a cold night in Calgary and pho is always a great idea. I thought it was easy, fast, and good. Satisfying for what it is. The portion was just perfect for me, I ordered a medium. I always get the pho dac biet, combination of everything yummy that can go into pho. It's good for groups because there were 13 of us and they had no problems seating us. Nothing is special about this pho place that would make it stand out to me, but there's nothing bad that would make me not want to make another pit stop here when I'm back in Canada.

    My boyfriend's friend invited my boyfriend and me to have Vietnamese food for lunch when we came back from Toronto during the weekend. I am not a Vietnamese food fan. But, the one we had, was very great. We went to Pho Kim's Vietnamese Noodle House for lunch. It located on Centre B St NW, Calgary, AB T2M 2R5. It is a very big restaurant, has two floors. We arrived the restaurant around 12 pm right on the lunchtime. The restaurant was very full already. We were very lucky to find a table Upstairs. We all had the Noodle Soup with beef ball, rare beef, flank, tripe & tendon with different sizes. I had a small size, my boyfriend had large, and his friend had x large. All the noodle soup was in the large portion. They were all very well cooked and fresh. Even though I don't really like the Vietnamese Noodle Soup, I really enjoy having noodles at Pho Kim's. Very great experience.

    The #16. Overpriced and cold. Spring rolls were tough and tasteless.

    What happened?? This used be one of my favourite VN Restaurants. No longer. The spring rolls were tasteless and almost too tough to chew through. And my #27 (vermicelli with assorted toppings) was cold. Terrible meal. I shall never return.

    I could write up a long review but the simple fact is that this is the gold standard for pho in Calgary. If you're looking for great service, high class dining you might as well go elsewhere. But if you're interested in trying some of the best pho this city has to offer, look no further. I approve highly.

    Pho Kim used to be a weekly haunt after Saturday morning Tai Chi but my group was slightly turned off when one busy Saturday we had barely finished our meal and were asked to leave so that they could have the table as there were people waiting. I think it was more how we were asked than the fact that we were asked. Asian food establishments are really about turnover and the philosophy is very practical: we sell food, you eat and go, no lingering for conversation and more tea! Pho Kim has been in business a long time but it can be hard to place unless you are familiar with the area as it is off-Centre St. It is in a converted house that is kitty-corner from the Central Landmark Mall which is on the corner of 16 Avenue and Centre St. N. (SW corner). There is a City of Calgary parking lot right across the street with reserved spots for Pho Kim so parking is free if you can snag one of those spots; otherwise parking is on the street. Weekends can be a traffic nightmare navigating between people and cars trying to get into the Central Landmark parking lot or the Lambda parking lot on the other side so be forewarned that you need the patience of a saint if you choose to enter the area on a weekend. Pho is good here. I had the well-done beef and beef ball pho in the small. I really like the fact that there is a small size and it is a perfect size. The portion of beef meat to noodles is fair and the broth flavourful. Cost is around $8. They also include a fresh Thai chilli pepper with the fresh sprouts and basil that automatically comes with Pho. Some places make you ask for the pepper. One of my friends had the Bun and was quite pleased with what she got. Judging from the looks of the chicken, beef and shrimp, I would definitely give the Bun a try. The chicken was large chunks of chicken breast and looked moist and well-seasoned. The bun is around $11-12 and served in the medium sized bowl. We got there about 11 a.m. so the place was pretty much deserted but I know from past experience that an hour later the place starts to fill up with people trying to get lunch in either before or after their grocery shopping. Service was pleasant and efficient.

    Garden spring rolls pretty mediocre but Cambodian boyfriend says the durian smoothie is one of the best in town.

    Full of flavor despite it being vegan. We stopped by on our travels craving Vietnamese food and…read morethis place really hit all the right notes. The restaurant was pretty spacious and not very busy on a Saturday late afternoon. The place however was a little warm inside, maybe the AC wasn't working as they had some fans on. We ordered the vermicelli dish and pad Thai as the staff told us it was their most popular dish. The pad Thai was indeed one of our favorite. It had a unique smoky flavor to it. We also ordered the pho and eggplant dish. The pho had a surprisingly rich flavor. I would definitely recommend the pho. Overall we were very pleased with our meal and left full with hardly any left overs.

    Let me start with the food first! I have had my best vegan…read morepho here!! Being a vegetarian, I have had a hard time getting pho that's flavorful but the chefs here have magic in their hands, they have put so much heart and effort in packing so much flavor in their broths! I had the Sate Tofu Noodle Soup, ah can't get the taste out of my head!! Such richness, the freshness of the house made tofu paired with soft rice noodles was just beyond perfection!! The Pad Thai was also delicious: it missed one thing: crushed peanuts which we usually get at Thai restaurants. The restaurant has a very calm and peaceful auto to it!!! Full of large plants and a meditation area, it's a nice getaway from the corporate hustle outside. The place closes at 8, so reach early.
