Love it. The sketchy staircase, lack of decor, and ceiling fans take me right back to Vietnam. Their BBH was very good, the broth is full of depth and with a kick. Spring rolls were crispy and fresh. Beef stew noodles was also very tasty. Everything we ordered were good and very good size for the price. read more

Fyi for those with mobility issues, if you come through the front door you'll have to walk up a flight of stairs, so go through the back to avoid stairs. There is also limited parking in the back. The room is spacious with plenty of seating and kind of feels like someone's living room. It can also get hot and stuffy in the summer. Service is quick and food will come out fast. Prices are probably the cheapest out of all the Vietnamese restaurants in the area. They only accept cash or debit! Beef pho: the broth is clear and tasty and comes with a ton of rice noodles, although I did feel thirsty after. Bun bo hue (spicy noodle soup): I normally love this dish, but didn't enjoy it here. The bowl is huge, but I didn't care for the broth. It was way too spicy and I couldn't taste any flavours other than chili. Lemongrass chicken on rice: the chicken is well seasoned and was juicy. read more

This place is pretty good, It's a weird little place if you haven't been here before. It's actually upstairs, you have to go up a flight of stairs to get to the restaurant. The pho is pretty good, flavorful broth and good portion of noodles and toppings. I also enjoyed their spring rolls and salad rolls. I wasn't a fan of their lemongrass chicken. The service and I believe who was the owner was pretty nice. It's a good sized restaurant. There is street parking out front on Hastings......... read more

It's good to have friends that live in East Vancouver! They know all the cheap, tasty & inexpensive hot spots to eat at. I'd never heard of Pho Pasteur before but my friend sweared by it & so off we went. Street parking is available but you can park at the back & be on the same one level up, as the restaurant. It's definitely an ol skool type Vietnamese restaurant. Try & sit facing the TV that shows real authentic Vietnamese cooking, at it's finest. I sampled my friends beef order & it was excellent. My Lemongrass Chicken was most definitely one of the most bestest I've ever had! The lady & her hubby who run it are no nonsense & quick with the orders. The food is scrumptious & I highly recommend you pop in! I will be going back several times! read more

This is what pho should be like! I came during a busy lunch and there weren't a lot of tables left. But I was seated quite quickly. As soon as a window seat opened up I asked for it. The food was amazing with generous portions. I had the large house special ($14) and spring rolls ($8 for 2.) It's a pretty crowded space and the ambiance feels like a living room with all the big tables and chairs. If you need more tea just waive your server over. Very good food. read more

Cheap local gem. It looks a little rundown and sketchy in the store but the food was very good, it's very cheap here and we enjoyed it everytime we go there. The staff are nice. My partner enjoyed the lemon grass chicken pho even though I Woolf prefer the chicken to be grilled instead of boiled. I liked their pho, I think it's a good deal! They have parking on the back in the alley. read more

My first experience here was pretty good. Large bowl of house noodle pho had the nicest cuts of brisket I've ever seen for a good price of $14. There was so much rice noodles though I can't complain especially when I was hungry. Broth was good, I didn't feel thirsty after drinking it. I came back with family for my second visit and the older skinny Vietnamese lady was very rude. I've never seen anyone place food down so aggressively. She slammed down my parents bowls and just left. When my sister's and my order came, she just shoved the plates in our faces. I don't know what her problem is but she ruined our dining experience, so unprofessional and obnoxious the way she treats people. The other lady with shoulder length hair and glasses was nice wish we had her instead. read more

Pho Pasteur Restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

4.5/5 I popped in twice in December and ordered the same thing as I was stuck in traffic bc of the snow, I agree with the other reviewers. Pho Pasteur is a hidden gem. Both times I had Beef Stew Noodles. It was really great! The noodles were blanched to perfection, the ratio of the soup and noodles was appropriate.The beef although smaller than other places, were bite size and tender. Slivered white onion was done beautifully and crisp. Appreciated there is street parking in the front and a parking lot in the back. Setting is very cosy and family style. read more

Nice mom and pop restaurant. Friendly service, especially if you can speak Cantonese. I don't but my friend does. So they are chatting away to us in Cantonese. I just nod and smile. We are wondering how they can survive during this inflationary period while keeping prices still low/affordable. $10-11 pho is super rare now. The owners try to keep things affordable for customers by doing everything themselves. No staff. I do notice the large pho is mainly more noodles. The protein is quite little. The broth is very tasty though. I also like the house made chili oil. The shop is located on the upper level of coming in from Hastings. There is rear parking and it leads right into the restaurant. Do support this place if you are in the area. read more

Cheap and tasty hole in the wall pho place in Burnaby Heights. Can't believe I went by all these years without noticing the place. Parking is available on Hastings, as well as a lot behind the building. I would recommend parking in the back, though the alley sure is steep towards the W end. The restaurant itself is actually located upstairs. The interior is orange (like the fruit), and feels like someone's living room, with the decorations and the TV in the middle of the room. Staff are friendly. Looks like a mom and pop operation, and possibly some relatives helping out. As of the time of writing, this has to be the cheapest pho in the entire neighbourhood. I ended up coming here several times to try the various dishes. Pho portion is decent, and the broth is nice and clear. Meat and other cow bits are fresh. Rice dishes here taste fine, but the portion is noticeably smaller than the competition. Don't say I didn't warn you. Vietnamese sandwiches (banh mi) are decent. Bread is nice and crunchy, and the filling tastes authentic. The other downside to this place is that they close earlier than other similar places. Something to keep in mind. I think I found my new go to place. read more

Pho Pasteur Restaurant I randomly bumped into this hidden gem and it's unnoticed if you drive by. They only have a sign with the menu on the main door. You have to walk up the stairs to 2nd floor to the restaurant. 12. Grilled Prawn Paste on Sugar Cane, Grilled Pork & Spring Roll on Vermicelli 16. Grilled Pork Chop & Lemongrass Chicken on Steamed Rice The meat are tender and very flavorful. I'm glad that they have this unique rare Grilled Prawn Paste on Sugar Cane here.

Food was solid. Family run business, happy to support this place. No frills, food came out fast.

Very tasty, affordable and filling vegetarian pho. We stopped in for lunch on a Monday and each ordered their vegetarian pho ($11.50 plus tax), which is vegan. Less than 10 minutes later, our soups arrived. You get a massive bowl, filled with a generous portion of thin vermicelli, mixed veggies (broccoli, green cabbage and carrot), fried tofu, and typical garnishes (green onion, cilantro and crispy fried onion), served with basil, lemon and bean sprouts. The broth was delicious, being wonderfully salty and also with a nice black pepper character that is a little different to most veggie phos out there. All in all, we really enjoyed this. Yet another great spot in town for veggie pho. Recommended. read more

Pho Pasteur Restaurant - Vegetable & tofu pho (vegan) - Vietnamese Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

The three of us came here for an early dinner as we heard this place was good. This place used to be a crab pot place and then something else...I lost count and I hope this place can keep dishing out good food. Typical Vietnamese joint decor. Reminds me of the good old '90s pho places with the large Chinese ornaments, neon lights and giant TV. No frills. I love it, and I miss it. We placed our order with a Vietnamese mama looking type and waited a whopping 7 mins for our food to be dished out. Here is what we had: - Pho Dac biet (L $11): 5/5 that broth is gem. No MSG, clear and not fatty. Noodles were done just right. Raw beef is lean and fresh. Lots of ingredients and noodles. - Bun Cha Glo + Ga Nuong($11): 4/5 Ok portion. Ingredients are not bad in portion or taste. Veggies are fresh and noodles are good. The nuoc cham is less sugary and salty than other places and I can taste the pure sweetness in the fish sauce base. - Banh mi heo ($6): 2/5 oh, big disappointment. The bun itself is crusty and hard. The pork is lacking in proportion. No sauce or other means to promote flavour. Overall: yes, we will come back to try other items on the menu, but we will not have the Banh mi again. read more

Honestly our eyes caught the large signs in the window with their specials of House Pho and Pork Chop with rice for $8.50 +tax. Being in the neighborhood, my family is constantly on the search for another good bowl of pho that's close by. The Burnaby Heights is constantly changing and new developments are definitely making the area more desirable to patrons. This little gem opened 6 month ago and I'm guessing since COVID like most restaurants, they also had to shut down. The interior is a bit dated and has reminiscence of previous restaurants that was in that space before them, but lets be honest, we're there for the food. The Pork Chop on Rice special was fantastic! Not just the flavour but also the portion! A fantastic deal for $8.50! I had ordered the Chicken and Spring roll on Vermicelli ($10.50). The chicken was moist and seasoned perfectly. The spring roll ... if you've been to Bao Chau in Vancovuer, thye're similar to those but a tad smaller. Overall,It was enough food that I was able to bring home leftovers. Our server/owner(?) was super friendly and even gave us free dessert! Its nice to see that they're taking care by wearing masks when serving us. They are fantastic people serving up some delicious food. I can't wait to go back and try the pho. If you're in the area, go check it out! Eat local and be kind. read more

I was in the area and wanted to get some take out. I decided to give this restaurant a try after a quick Yelp search. It was $9.50 for the house special pho and $10.50 for the spring roll and grilled beef on vermicelli bowl. Definitely, one of the better priced Vietnamese restaurants in this area. The pho broth was not greasy and had a hint of sweetness to the beefy broth. It was a decent tasting broth. The noodles and beef toppings were a generous portion. The vermicelli bowl was great too. Salad was fresh. Beef slices were grilled alright but no grill marks. The deep fried spring roll was perfection. I like my spring rolls made with rice wrapper instead of the wheat wrapper. The spring roll was crispy. Filling was a good mix of noodles, carrots, wood ear mushrooms and pork. Service was fast. Food was ready for pick up in 15 minutes. Bean sprouts were cooked as requested. Everything was packed nicely. One last note, this restaurant accepts only cash or debit. read more

The ambience is excellent. Food is yummy. The support lady staff is very courteous and smiley and provided us with excellent service.

Hidden gem in Burnaby. Come here if you want a true authentic experience in Vietnamese culture and cuisine. This place is not the most beautiful or high end, but you come here for the Vietnamese speaking family that runs this place. Very delicious food. read more

Authentic and good service. Try the spicy pho soup. Anything is honestly good. Not a fancy place in the way that most good restaurants are.

It was okay for me and it was just quite cheap and good for the portion price. Uncle was really nice and nice tea too. Only cash and debit unfortunately but hey its a comfort restaurant and will come around again if i am around the area and need to get comfort food! read more

Spring rolls on vermicelli was delicious. However took off one star because the salad roll would have been good if it didn't have a weird detergent / sanitizer smell - probably the cook washed hands then made the food without fully rising it off... Friendly family business. Located on the north side of the street, parking in the back. read more

We're always on the lookout for nearby, decent restaurants that serve Banh Mi, but this place was one of the worst I've ever had. The bread was very stale and crumbly, fillings were cheap, and they were $6 each. I had the ham Banh Mi, and there was no pate, mayo, or any sauces, only lettuce, a couple of thick sliced salty bologna pieces, and almost no veggies/pickles. My wife placed the order and noticed the environment to be immediately strange. Many customers seemed to be family, children working there/helping, dropping utensils and placing them back onto the counter, etc. With many options nearby, I don't foresee this business lasting very long. Cleanliness is lacking, the cashier touched his pen and notepad, and then made our sandwiches without gloves. Recommend you spend your money somewhere more responsible and up to code. read more

There are no other Pho places in Van that would have below 10 dollar prices, and thats not because the food is bad. In fact they are fantastic. But the pandemic hit restaurants hard, and extra so for asian places. I love places like this, family owned, hole in the wall joints where the food is authentic, legit, delicious, and friendly. So go here, order from here, help keep places like this alive. Especially if it deserves it due to the high quality of the food. read more

Have seen this place a couple times when visiting the nail salon. Stopped in finally. Had the spring rolls and rare beef Pho. It was all very tasty. Service was quick and friendly. My only complaint is that I think the oil needs changing. The spring roll was very dark, but not overcooked. read more

Probably one of the better pho places I've been too very affordable& delicious so so good! Cute hole in the wall with the sweetest owners

Been coming here since they opened nothing comes close to there prices in the area and some of the best pho I've ever had 8.50 for a large bowl of pho can't beat it read more

The food itself is quite good. However, amidst a pandemic the person packing and preparing our food did not wear a mask nor gloves. On top of this, I asked for no sprouts with our order yet both orders included a full amount of sprouts. While these things in themselves may not constitute avoiding this place altogether, it does seriously make me wonder what other things in the kitchen they mishandle. read more
