Very cute pho spot in Waterloo that has quick service which makes up for their smaller storefront…read more It is on the pricier side for pho but they are generous with their portions and I always leave full and satisfied. Their menu isn't extensive but from what I have tried, they are good at what they make! Solid spot for pho if you are a Waterloo student or in the area.

It's been a year since I had iPho but every couple months I think back to the S4 braised beef stew…read more It has carrots and each bite of noodles get a generous amount of stew clinging onto them. My (ex-)roommates and I looveed this dish. Tbf it wasn't always the exact same across our visits but it was still tasty whenever we had it. They don't always have her available so you can call ahead to check! We were disappointed once before when we showed up to have no S4 available :(

Just ok! I felt I…read morehad to say something about this place. It's a small place not too many tables. They only had 1 table of 6 and a table of 2 while we were there. No service at all!!! I mean zero!! After 20 minutes I took it upon myself to go get menus from another table. I waited again and I went to the counter to place the order (no it's not one of those places you order yourself and then sit down) I then went to the counter and asked for takeout containers. The only service we had was the food being delivered to our table, and if I knew when the food was going to be ready I would grabbed it myself. They were busy with takeout and food delivery (Uber eats etc) and couldn't care about the customers sitting down. Really disappointing! The chicken pad thai was just ok, I would say that it wasn't pad Thai, I could swear that there was ketchup in the sauce, not even a taste of tamarind. I will not be going back! Unfortunately I would not recommend this place. Service is everything now, there are too many restaurants to choose from.

The food is fresh and tasty despite the lack of tendons on the menu…read more Lunch time is quite a busy place -- a lineup for takeout. That's a good sign.

It's hard to come by great Vietnamese cuisine In the tri-city area and even harder to come by great…read morePho. Pho Vietnam recently opened in the area and I had to check it out because with one of the first snowfalls of the season, pho is the BEST pairing. Food I personally got the beef rice noodle soup (pho) and my friends got the hue style beef, pork, and blood pudding with vermicelli in salted fish soup as the soupy dishes. The pho was very fragrant and with me being sick, it was the perfect pick me up. The portions were huge and well worth the money I paid. My friend also got the BBQ chicken & spring roll with vermicelli. They enjoyed it and thought it was authentic to Vietnamese cuisine. Atmosphere This place has monochromatic walls that are white and grey. There's about 8 tables for seating and the space is nice and cozy. The environment is very casual and is perfect for lunch or dinner. Service The service here is great. The servers are friendly and willing to help you out with your order if you're not familiar with the cuisine. There may be some language barrier with the servers because English isn't their first language, but nevertheless, the servers are bubbly and quite efficient. Price The price of the dishes were quite cheap, especially for dinner. The soups ranged from $7.50 for a medium sized to $8.95 for the large size. The vermicelli dish was $8.95. The most expensive item on their menu Verdict Overall, this makes the perfect place for some quick eats. I'd say this place is great for lunch or an after work bite. The food is pretty authentic and the servers are quite friendly and helpful. It's a more casual place for dining and it can be hard to miss this spot. It's right across from a bakery and steps away from the Kitchener Farmers' Market.

I was a guest in a wheelchair and have been in a handful of times and every time i have had a…read moreterrible experience. I do not feel like i am valued as a guest at all. My most recent experience including wait at the door for over 10 minutes to even be acknowledged to get a simple take out order of a Bubble tea. I did order a stir fry on one of my visits and it honestly wasn't that good either. Poor portion size and it was overcooked and wasn't worth what I paid for it. Recently, i was there with a large group and i haven't been asked for so much as a glass of water. I told the organizer of the group about my experience and was told the owner apologized profusely but couldn't be bothered to apologize to my face despite me being there. If you are a member of the disabled community here in Guelph, i do not recommend this establishment. I am a known disabled advocate here in the city and from experiences from this restaurant, I cannot recommend it as I felt like I wasn't valued as a guest or even recognized as a person.

I'm so thirsty!!! MSG!…read more Just disappointed with another establishment serving from the bucket soup base. The large bowl did not have as much ingredient ratio to noodles compared to more places. We thought to order the stir fry beef with vegetables because we thought we would still hungry. The dish feature was not the best with an underwhelming 5 pieces of meat to almost dead vegetables. It seemed more of a plate of leftovers. The "Thai" sauce was a water down bunch of juice thickened with corn starch. Overall just was not impressed with this restaurant. Not returning.

Pho Anh Vu Waterloo…read more Came to Canada for some personal items, decided to come here. Everyone said this was the best pho. I agree. This placed delivered. Came out piping Hot. Flavorful. Plenty of meat. Excellent presentation. Beautiful decor. Price was right. Service was good. Many guest. They give you little garnish because the bowl comes out full to the max. My large was excellent and extremely full. My wife complained because she just asked for meatballs but they overfilled her bowl with meatballs! Meatballs and more meatballs. Nice job! Wow. You get what you pay for. ***FYI, I'm a crazy pho eater that has to have pho from all over. I travel far and in between the states. Eating from LA, Vegas, MN, WI, MI, IL, NC, OH, Manhattan, NY, FL, KS, MS, D.C.,TX, Canada, etc. I've had the best pho (rated by the expert locals) in LA, Hollywood, Chicago, GA, and FL. I make reviews after tasting their pho. I know what pho is good and what is fake!*** Do not miss this GEM! If you live outside Canada, try this place !! My Star System: 1=Dumpster fire. Don't waste your money 2=Disappointed. Lot of issues 3=Average, 1-2 issues. 4=Above average, I might come again 1-3 times per year 5=Highest. I will come back a few times a month or more. If I live far, it's at the top of my list to visit when I'm in town. Highly Recommended

Pho Anh Vu - Waterloo is a great location to get some Vietnamese food. The portions are great,…read morelocation perfect, and they definitely have a better use of this big space than previous tenants! They even have the Banh Mi store to the side of the building to serve those customers separately. They are Cash/Debit only (no discount). We were here as a party of 3 and paid around 100$ for a lot of food plus leftovers. Very worth it, all in all. Food came out quickly within about 10-15 min or ordering while the special item took about the time they indicated. Ordering is all managed by website (QR Code), but you can get staff to take orders manually if needed. Paying is at the front, they don't push you out when you are done. Tea is free and they will refill if called. All takeout containers and free to be used as well if you have leftovers. Floor staff is a bit passive, only really bringing the dishes and managing cleaning/refills, and the cashier is at the front (semi self-served). We had the: - 37. CƠM GÀ NƯỚNG, SƯỜN NƯỚNG (grilled pork and chicken broken rice), the chicken was juicy and tender and the rice super soft and fluffy, the sauce was perfectly seasoned - 48 BÚN THỊT NƯỚNG, CHẢ GIÒ (grilled pork chop with spring rolls and rice noodles), the noodles were the perfect texture, the meat was juicy and tender, also perfectly seasoned - S4 BÚN BÒ HUẾ ĐẶC BIỆT (spicy Hue Style Beef Special noodle soup) (only on Friday, Saturday and Sunday), they had many options on the website to remove certain portions of the meal like no blood, no cake, etc. very flexible and customizable - 10 CÁNH GÀ CHIÊN NƯỚC MẮM VỚI XÔI (takes an extra 20 minutes) (fish sauce fried chicken wings with sticky rice), this was a hidden gem, its super crispy wind/drumettes, great classic Vietnamese grill flavoring (garlic, salt), it takes some additional time as it is freshly fried It was a great meal and will be back to try the rest of the menu, especially in the summer for their cold drinks!
