    Grilled lemon grass chicken & shredded pork with an egg on steamed broken rice
    Ceci L.

    Really tiny hole in the wall that takes cash only! Came here during covid and there's only 4 small tables. I ordered a small pho with rare beef, well-done flank & tripe. I loved the broth, it was so flavourful and I didn't detect too much msg. The meat was nice and tender, but I wish it came with more. The portion was pretty small, next time I'll order a large. My partner ordered a rice dish with grilled lemon grass chicken, shredded pork & egg. The pork was so so, but the lemongrass was packed with flavour. Other restaurants often include a soup with this dish, but they don't here.

    Quaint little mom 'n' pop shop, seats about 30. It needs a good cleaning, but otherwise not too bad. It's close to a lot of shopping places, so it's a convenient place to stop for dinner after shopping. I love the decor pictures that are made of abalone shells. Very pretty! The food gets a solid 3 stars. Service is okay as well.

    A dingy but surprisingly good Pho place along a part of Rupert nobody ever stops at. Parking is available along Rupert, as well as the side streets. The inside looks like someone's living room. That's how one can tell the place is the real deal. It appears to be a mom and pop type shop. Service was decent, and the staff were friendly. The spring rolls were nice and crunchy, but not fluffy. The skin is more like Chinese style. They were super hot so we had to wait a bit. The beef steak and beef ball pho had a nice thin but heavy soup. Served with green onion and a some red onion slices on top. Beautiful. Pricing was fairly decent, and I left happy. I would be back. Recommended.

    I really like that the pork rice dish that I ordered has mounds of shredded pork on it! Nice and simple. The fillings for the spring rolls were great but if only the skin had used the traditional rice type rather than the Chinese style one. It's a bit cramped in there as it is a small place but hey, it's nice and cozy that we get quick service.

    Awesome hole in the wall/ dive Vietnamese Pho House. This place is super small, really cramped and the decor is absolutely horrid. In this case though, all of that stuff is negated by the awesome food and really good prices! Really, you only go here for the great food and good service, everything else is inconsequential for the tasty grub you get. I usually go for the Pho or soups, but I hear their sandwiches are awesome too. I'll have to try one the next time I come here. Out of all the Vietnamese Pho places I've been too, this place by far has the best soup base for their Pho noodles. It's tasty, savory, authentic and fresh. They add a lot of cilantro as well, which I absolutely love in almost anything. Today I ordered the small no. 1 beef house special with rice noodles. It came with a mix of different cuts of beef, beef balls, and various other things that most westerners wouldn't dream of eating like tendons, tripe (stomach lining/ intestines) and other various deliciousness. I usually get a spring role as well, but I'm trying to cut down on how much food I consume per day, which in the past was an extraordinary amount and probably still is today. To go with my Pho, I ordered a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice, just the thing to pick you up! (Who needs coffee?!?!?). I will for sure eat here often, when I'm in the mood for some hole in the wall, cheap, awesomely good pho! St3Fin

    I love this place but warning they are cash only. (But there's a BMO just a couple doors down) and note that they generally close by 8pm. This is my fourth or fifth time having food here including takeout. Every single time to date the food has been amazing and tasty. Being a bit of a hole in the wall and not English as a first language it's a surprisingly reliable feel-good place. Today I am having #35 shredded pork and deep fried spring rolls on vermicelli with assorted veggie $7.95, hot tea and a #96 Vietnamese coffee with sweetened condensed milk with ice to use with it once it's done brewing. The last time I came it was just after I moved Nov 1/13 so I walked my small dog here (one way took 30 minutes) it was worth it. I ordered a salad roll to eat on the go (which amazed them) and a similar to today soup. Even the options without broth are great although I wish they would use a lime wedge over lemon-it's still delectable.

    Special Banh Mi

    Service was so bad! The server was super unfriendly and when I ordered the special Banh Mi he seemed disappointed (maybe because it was cheaper than theirs soups?) The taste of the Banh Mi was just OK and the pate wasn't spread properly at all and there was not enough pickled vegetables on it. Wouldn't return because of the service. I can get a better Banh Mi downtown. Even though the price is pretty good.

    My go-to pho place for a few reasons: 1) it's close to home and super convenient to get to; 2) it's run by the most humble and hard working guy - he used to work at a local grocery store, helping my mom carry out her groceries and boxes of yams that she would buy; 3) his family uses the best ingredients. Nothing beats mom's homemade pho broth but she doesn't make it often; and this place comes pretty close. The broth doesn't leave you as thirsty as some of the other chains or Vietnamese restaurants in the city. Always good portion sizes and the bowls come out piping hot! Small restaurant but definitely worth a try!

    Pho Nhuan is a really small family run hole in the wall restaurant, it can be easy to miss when you drive by. I would say we've had better Pho in the city, but prices are so cheap so it's really hard to complain. Both broth and noodles were solid, and one of the few restaurants that provide chillies. The spring rolls were very good, I think we liked it better than the pho itself. As others have mentioned, service is pretty much non-existent here, but the food and prices are good enough where we would come back.

    Pho Ga
    Sachi M.

    I hated the Pho, but the Bahn Mi is pretty good. The Pho Ga soup looked all yellow, and it also tasted like Top Ramen. The noodles were fine, but I couldn't finish it. The sandwiches were better. I like the meatball one the best. They have a few cooks in the back, and one lady as the cashier/waitress. Not once was she friendly. After I went to get take-out sandwiches a few times, she told me to call head of time, probably to make clear that I was in the way waiting around. I haven't been back since, because it was a "hey, we're driving by; let's get some sandwiches" kind of place. For us, it's not quite worthy of being a planned-ahead destination.

Not too loud. But definitely better than a fast food place. For this kind of place, it's as good as it gets. 4 stars - extremely solid and reliable place, it's just not a 5 stars for me because it doesn't blow my mind or anything.

Paid parking was not too hard to find on the Main Street but during busy dining hours it might be difficult. We got seated right away at the bar since there were no tables open and the service was quick. Traditional Japanese style ambiance and even the bathroom had rounded Japanese bowl sink. As someone who doesn't have chicken broth (paitan style) ramen, I was really looking forward to the original ramen I ordered but I was a bit disappointed in the flavor profile of the dish. The ramen had both chasu and seaweed paired with thin round noodles. The broth was creamy and had a hint of chicken flavor but even adding several rounds of their soy sauce/salt seasoning they have on the side to adjust your broth to your liking-- I found that the richness of the soup was not what I had expected from the reviews that I read prior to coming here. Overall, a bit disappointed in the flavoring of the broth but maybe we came on an off day. I would be willing to give it a shot again in the future if I had ramen cravings and given that it was very affordable ($11-15 per bowl with tip), but I would probably opt to try another place first.

    Review #3 for 2026 I…read morereally wanted to like this place. I watched many videos and read reviews before coming here, but it just did not hit the spot. After a cold day of exploring Stanley Park, we felt that ramen would really hit the spot, so we went here not wanting to deal with a wait at Danbo with a hungry and tired toddler. There was NO wait when we arrived here and we were seated immediately... which for a place that was really hyped up, should had made us think twice. There was only 1 other party at the restaurant. Now, the workers were super nice and the food came out quickly and we did eat everything because we were starving. We all ordered the cha-shu tamago ramen, 2 of us got spicy and 2 of us non-spicy. It came with extra chashu and the soft boiled egg for about $20 Canadian. The bowl was a good size and there was a promo for free extra noodles while we were there. Everyone except me in our group took advantage of it because I was too full from my bowl. Now, the broth here is different from other places because it is chicken based and not pork based. Everything I had seen about this place promised the broth is every bit just as good as the pork bone broth... however, the broth we received looked flavorful, but was bland. It was completely bland. There was no richness to it, not even a hint. I don't know, coming from southern California, the flavor just was not there period. We did all eat our food because we were starving, but it for sure did not hit the spot at all. Maybe we got an off day? Otherwise our broth had literally zero flavor to it. We all wished we had tried the other ramen place instead right after trying our ramen. Would I come back? I will have to say definitely no. We do not live in Vancouver and I do not want to waste any meals on a place that did not taste good the first time we went.

The gentleman (owner?) greeted us and provided us with some suggestions on their best sellers.

I ordered the beef noodle soup, and the noodles were prepared well (good texture and not soggy) and the soup had a slight but not overwhelm sour taste from the preserved vegetables. The beef wasn't as tender as it could be, but it wasn't chewy or tough to eat. Prices are reasonable at around $20 after tax and tips. While it wasn't the best or most authentic beef noodle soup I've had, it does hit the spot if I'm craving Taiwanese food downtown or want a hot bowl of noodle soup on a cold day.

I think most people do that so it also gets filled up during the lunch hour rush. The food is ok, nothing special. The price increase makes it even less appealing. I don't know why there is chili in my Taiwanese beef noodle soup. I don't like spicy soup. Lucky I am ok with spice but I wish it is stated in the menu? So if you cannot take spicy food, check with them before ordering. The beef noodle soup is tasty as I do like the addition of pickled vegetables in it, giving a bit of tartness. The beef is tender though the quantity is very little. More noodles than meat ratio. The combo is totally not worth it now that the price has gone up to about $13. If you want rice and noodle for lunch, I think Peaceful Restaurant across the street is a better bet. At least the portion is bigger.
