I want to like this place but I still cannot recommend . Owner is friendly, but the food I've ordered is bland and pricey for Vietnamese. We tried this a number of years ago and found it pricey and bland, so never returned. Just tried it again today. This time for a quick Banh Mi sandwich. Since it was still in business I thought maybe it had improved. Sadly, does not seem like it has. These are traditional, staple of many Vietnamese restaurants. I lived on them when I was a college student - they used to be $2.50 20 years ago and most I've had were scrumptious- crisp bun, fresh veggies, good meat with flavour. This one was $10.50 and bland. Had cilantro stems I had to discard. read more

Decent vegan pho, on the pricier side for Vancouver options. Having seen that they have a vegan pho ($15 plus tax), I tried them out for lunch one day. My soup came out in about 10 minutes. The portion is on the smaller side relative to other pho options (especially for the relatively high price point), but was still enough for me. You get mixed veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, carrot and cabbage), 4 pieces of heavily deep-fried tofu, and thin rice noodles. The broth was gentle, quite bland, but reasonable. I asked for some homemade chili oil to make it more interesting. Not a highlight spot for vegan pho, but decent enough. Vancouver has much better options. read more

Pho Win - Vegan pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Our first dine-in experience in three months. We were starving after a couple of hours playing beach v-ball. Pho Win was one of the few spots in the area open for dine in so we decided to give them a go. They're located across the street from Mr. Red Cafe. We dropped in on a Friday evening (around 8:00pm). There were a couple customers inside but overall, not too busy. There's a TV inside if you need some entertainment. Service was mediocre; our waitress dropped off water and never came back after. The menu is a couple pages consisting of pho, vermicelli, rice, special dishes and appetizers. - Herbs - bean sprouts, basil and lime wedges. Not much given for three bowls. - Bun bo hue (#1) ($11.00) - broth was terrible. No depth or flavour. They literally poured in some chili oil and called it a BBH. The meat was just as bad; no pork blood, pig's foot or Vietnamese ham. The beef slices were tough and overcooked. The only thing I liked were the noodles. One of the worst iterations I've had in Vancouver. - Pho dac biet (#2) ($11.00) - the dac biet was slightly better but the meat lacked in both quality and quantity. Beef balls were dinky (a total of two quarter pieces) and dry. Barely any tripe. No tendon in sight. What they did give you was a lot of green onion. - Pho ga chien (#14) ($11.00) - lemongrass chicken with rice noodle in soup. - Cha gio (#57) ($6.00 for 2) - the picture in the menu looks like the legit ones but that's not the case. Some of the tiniest spring rolls I've seen. Overall, I left hungry and unsatisfied. Tiny portions (not enough meat and noodles). Don't bother with PW. read more

Meh. Came in here on my lunch break because I was craving Vietnamese and had Hanoi Old Quarter a few days before, so I didn't feel like Mr. Red for once. I should've left once I noticed how empty it was at lunch hour, but some of the restaurants I love the most have been hole-in-the-walls with an unsteady clientele.. So here we go! I ordered the Pho Dac Biet, which I usually use as my baseline for new Vietnamese restaurants. At about $12 a bowl, I felt it was a little steep but remained hopeful. It arrived quickly with a steaming hot broth, but otherwise didn't look too promising. The bowl was large, but there was a miniscule amount of noodles and the meat was sparse and had a lot of gristle. The broth was too sweet and rather unbalanced, which indicated copious amounts of MSG. I don't mind MSG despite its bad rep, but with pho broth, I find it such a cop out for taking the time to actually simmer the bones for hours. Taking shortcuts means you don't get the same depth of flavour and it shows. Anyhow, I finished the whole bowl within ten minutes. I was still hungry (and I wouldn't say I have a particularly large appetite) so I went to Pacific Bread Company for a second lunch lol. I won't be back. read more

I ordered a pork and egg roll vermicelli noodle enough to feed a very small child. I also order a ice coffee which is very small. And the total cost $28 before tax. This place is complete rip off. Also they don't have air condition and they are not consider giving ice to you when you asking a water. I won't recommend eating here I rather go to McDonalds. This place is garbage and should be called pho lose. Do Not come here at all. read more

Definitely one of the better pho places in town. Bao Chau and Le Petit Saigon have some serious competition. Parking is available on the street. The place is pretty much brand new as the building opened sometime in late 2015. The interior is brightly lit, and the furniture is trendy as well. The place seems to be run by a family. The parents run the place, while the kids help out. Having no idea what to try, my buddy and I had the Vietnamese omelette. This thing was HUGE. Filled to the brim with toppings, nice and crunchy egg "shell", and served with vegetables and fish sauce. This thing can easily feed 2 people. This is probably one of the best ones I've had in town. Special mention. I also had the Bun bo Hue. Nice spicy broth, plenty of green onion and onion bits. Meat had no gristle. Just thinking about this dish makes me drool. Pricing is a wee bit (maybe $1) more than the competition, but the quality is there. Here's to hoping that the place maintains their standards. Lastly, they accept credit cards here. No way! I will definitely be back. Recommended. read more

Overpriced, mediocre food. Portions are purposefully small. When I got my bowl I honestly felt like I was getting someone else's leftovers. That's just poor management. The spring roll was small, oily and not good. Wanted to try it and Vietnam House was closer. So disappointed. Do yourself a favor and cross the street to Mr Reds. read more

Went back to try the lemongrass chicken and pork. I love that there are no bones. It was delicious and no MSG! I had my usual spring rolls. They come out very very hot. I never leave here thirsty like I do other pho places so kudos to the cook. The owner is so friendly and kind to remember what I had a month ago! She asked if I wanted the same dessert! It's starting to be my go to place as food is great and service is always welcoming. read more

Pho Win - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

There broth is off the hook. My partner and I eat here all the time! Honestly we haven't found a better place! It maybe be a few dollars more than some other places but it's so worth it! The owners are lovely. Fast service. Clean. All the things. I love Pho Win! read more

Best broth in the city ! You are also greeted so kindly as you arrive. We went back two weeks later and she remembered a comment I had made about UBC. She said students come all the way as they say it's like a second home. She cooks the broth for 14 hours and the richness proved this to be true. Spring are great but not served as shown on the menu. It is also fabulously clean! So please make the visit and she will spoil you too! read more

Excellent food, you can easily distinguish the quality ingredients that use in their soups. Most places that claim to be msg free don't seem to have the amount of flavour that the standard places do - this one's the exception. Kind service, they even offer Asian fruit drinks, I had their Jackfruit juice with chunks inside it - hella bomb. Definitely a hidden gem. read more

My least favourite pho place in east Van. Food the other day was Luke warm and soggy. I get the sense they aren't really trying or don't care. read more

This place just opened up over a month ago and is run by a really sweet Vietnamese couple. The lemongrass pho noodle soup and spring rolls are amazingly good! The broth was hot and perfectly seasoned, not too salty. Didn't taste like msg either, though I should ask to confirm next time. Their vegetarian pho looks really good too and my partner really liked it. Also had a Bahn Mi which was good but the soups were the winners. The interior is very modern and clean and I can imagine their kitchen is very clean too, unlike some of the neighboring restuarants. There's a lot of options when it comes to pho in the neighborhood but this one seems the cleanest, friendliest and also has great veggie options that the others lack. Highly recommend a try. read more

Not sure why Carlos thinks this place is MSG free. As per the menu there is no claim for this and broth definitely left us thirsty. Portions are very small and the lady kept on trying to get us to order more stuff. Usually when we try a place for the first time, we always order one pho and one vermicelli dish. I ordered the lemon grass chicken and spring roll dish. The chicken was chopped up into uneven pieces and there was no lemongrass taste to it at all. The one spring roll was tasty though and not greasy. The pho was super salty and hardly had any meat or noodles. Going to get more food elsewhere now. read more

Likeable place with a friendly female owner. She does try to upsell but not offensively. The Noodles tasted slightly different and when I asked she said they were fresh local made nooodles. Not better or worse but different and it's a nice switch up for other pho places. The basil looked particularly fresh. It's a milder broth didn't have the strong spice smells of many other pho places and it was likeable. Very clean location which is a good selling point as a lot of pho joints can be a bit dingy. read more

This was my second restaurant I went to after arriving to Vancouver from the U.S. The dishes there were perfect! Ordered the spicy pho soup with an order of spring rolls and they were amazing. Seems like there weren't any MSG in the food and the food is perfect if you're going on a diet! The food wasn't too much or too less. Prices were reasonable too. Forgot to mention, the service they give is also very different from other restaurants. The waitress is very caring and engaging. Never had met workers who gave excellent service as this. It's truly a great place to dine out. The restaurant is very clean (including the washroom) and the food is delicious! I hope to come back to this restaurant again. read more

Truly delectable! I'm a major foodie lover of pho and all things Asian and I can tell you that this place is superb. They make the spring rolls from scratch (which are to die for) along with the broth which according to the cute fun woman who runs the place is prepared for 15 hours. Soooooo delicious, light, and flavorful. Highly recommended! read more

This place is fantastic. My girlfriend and I went there for the first time shortly after it opened up and we've been regulars ever since. The spring rolls are great, the lemon grass chicken isn't any of the brown gristly stuff you get at a lot of cheap Pho spots, it's a real chicken breast with amazing seasoning. What really makes this place our favourite spot for a late night snack is the people who run it. The family who owns it are also the full time staff. The first time we went, our complimentary dessert of grapes and orange slices was brought by their little son who insisted on delivering it to us himself, to see that the job was well done. read more

The food is ok, nothing special. I think lots of MSG in the soup, when I back home I feel so thirsty. I will not go there anymore

This may be the best Phó in Vancouver. No MSG. Real BONE BROTH soup. Tastes great ! It has new clean feel in the dining area. Washroom was spotless. So I Imagine the kitchen is the same. The owners said they are from Southern Vietnam and they only use fresh ingredients and highest quality meats. Try the Lemon Grass Chicken Phó ! read more

Friendly looking (and spotless clean) store, authentic Vietnamese cuisine, friendly staff and very tasty Pho.

Saw mr.red across the street and should've listen to my instinct. Pho win left us at a total loss for words. Been to many pho places in Vancouver and this was the worse pho I had in my life. Ordered the bun bo hue and when the lady came out with our bowls it looked highly promising as with any bun bo hue, seeing the red soup you're expecting savoury and spicy. As she put our bowls down, more than half the typical ingredients were missing.( meat balls, Vietnamese ham, pork blood) soup was terrible. Tasted like bland pho broth, portions of noodle would have maybe served a child not to mention all of our noodles were broken as well. Two bowls costed almost $30 with tip. Save your money and tastebuds and go across the street to mr.red cafe or even the food court. read more

Ive driven by so many times it was finally time to give it a try. Its on the same block as Mr Red and Vietnam house so it has its competition . Now as far as im concerned competition is great for pho. The more places on the block the better the pho. The place was empty when we entered. It was spotless like not a mark anywhere. It looked like its first day of business. It also looks like a deli. We entered the completely empty place and sat down uncomfortably. It was very quiet. The first thing I noticed about the menus was the prices. A little higher than anywhere else we had eaten pho. $9.00 for one size. I ordered bun bo hue and Maggie got rare beef and beef balls. There were two sauces on the table. chili sauce and hoisin. The soup came and the bowls were an average small . My bun bo hue was made with rice noodles which isn't usual. The toppings were scant and not of great quality. The broth was lacking any depth. It tasted like lemon grass water and maybe a pho bouillon cube. Really. This was weak . The other bowl was identical. The noodles in both had been warmed and were soft. Nothing was going right here. I actually started to feel kinda sorry for the place. It was almost embarrassing. So we didn't finish up and I went to pay. Now the menu says $9.00 for the pho but at the till I was charged $10. I thought whatever, tax. But then she added tax. I paid the bill. She didn't have enough money in the till to give me change so I tipped the extra. At this time she said. really good eh. Only the best quality. tell your friends. So yeah, tell my friends. Its Ok. You cant run a place on this block for very long with this kind of product. The competition will kill you. Actually it looks like it already has.... read more

This is a great pho place! I'm a Vegan and they have a very healthy (no msg) broth and BEST Vegan spring rolls! The food is fresh and made to perfection! Best Pho on Hastings St and possibly Vancouver, PERIOD! read more

Best chicken pho I've ever had. BBQ meat is also delicious. The restaurant is small but very clean and cozy. Highly recommended!

What an awesome find! The owners were very sweet and the food was magnificent. A very nice hidden gem. I highly recommend this place.

Prices difference between sign in front to menu to what is actually charged at register. BEWARE!!! While we were set to go to iPoh Asian House next door, we walked into this place due to seeing the $10 vermicelli listed on the sign out front. On entry, with only one other group besides us two, the owner was quickly able to provide menus and a table. Unfortunately, she hovered over us, waiting for our order. When we said we wanted more time, she ordered suggestions. Being late, we accepted, and then even accepted a couple extras after she enticed us with talk of her ingredients being only the best, despite noticing the $10 vermicelli listed outside was $11 in the menu. Once arrived, we noticed the vermicelli was pretty cold; not bad, but cold and not the best. The extra side of two spring rolls for $6 were very small and looked and tasted as if they were from a pack of frozen from Costco. The Vietnamese sub for $5 was okay; small, but okay. When I went to pay, the two $10 plates of vermicelli listed on the sign out front, ($11 on the menu), ended up being rang up on the cash register for $12. I asked the owner lady why, and she claimed it was due to having more than one kind of meat and with being made from only the 'best ingredients.' We asked for no extras, nor was there more than one type of meat in our vermicelli. Overall, if you do venture here, be wary that the owner lady is not just a good saleswoman, which she is good at getting you to order more than want, but that the dishes are smaller, colder, older, and pricier than they appear. read more

Easily one of the worst restaurant experiences of my life. We noticed this place was open late and went in around 10pm for a take-out snack of salad rolls and spring rolls to share. An *insane* 50 minutes of waiting and $21 later the food was in the garbage. The spring rolls were burnt, soggy with oil and tasted about half as good as the frozen ones you can buy at Costco. Ever wondered what rice noodles and lettuce tastes like? The most boring vegetarian salad roll ever wrapped. I would have eaten this limp, anemic joke anyway until I chomped on a small stone and had to spit all of my food out to avoid dental damage. Pho Lose. read more

Pho Win - The most boring vegetarian salad roll ever wrapped. - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Fantastic food- I usually get the bun bo hue pho win, and it's so tasty, with just the perfect level of spice. Spring rolls also good- crunchy and flavourful. Food arrives quickly, and the staff are so friendly. read more

When they say spicy, it's not white people spicy. Hooray for authentic levels of heat in the spicy dishes. Very clean, fast, all around amazing pho place with high quality meat in all the dishes I've tried, NOT the less than ideal cuts with gristle found in a bunch of pho places around town. Spring rolls were very well made, with good amounts meat. Rare beef, tendon pho was excellent. Chicken soup was also excellent, with a very well seasoned chicken breast. Super nice lady was working the front, I'll be returning again, earlier in the day to have their coffee ;) read more

Very great little find! I was actually on my way to pho don up the street but happened to have passed by and decided to give it a shot. Although I will note that the noodle portions for the pho was a little bit smaller than I expected in comparison to some other places around the city, the broth was killer and the noodle texture was amazingly chewy and satisfying. One of the best bowls of pho I've had in a while! As for the spring rolls, they were tasty but nothing over the top, however what makes this place memorable is the atmosphere. Very cozy little spot to grab a quick bite. The couple that runs the place makes you feel at home. Will be back for the 'at home' feels and the exceptionally warm & welcoming owners. Give it a try. read more

Flavorful and healthy. Fast and efficient. Extremely friendly and obviously passionate for the food! They are gluten free and open late! How can anyone go wrong? The chicken on rice is my go-to. Deep flavorful meat that is perfectly seasoned and covered with nuts and crispy tofu. I love it! read more

Great seafood pho. My wife said she could actually tell the difference. The service was great and clean washrooms

This restaurant truly deserves 5 stars. It is spotlessly clean, the food is delicious, and the quality is consistent. I regularly order the number 36 (lemongrass chicken with vermicelli and a spring roll,) and it always hits the spot-- the vermicelli is always perfect. As others have mentioned, the prices might be a dollar higher than some other local spots, but it's totally worth it. The family that runs this restaurant are the sweetest people-- they genuinely care about the neighbourhood and their customers. It's always a joy to catch up with them and it's really special when a small business make the effort to get to know their regulars so well. read more

Best pho restaurant I've found so far in the Vancouver area, though I've only been to 4 or 5. This was recommended by a friend, and I'll be listening to this friend's other recommendations. The owner understands what "vegetarian" means and has plenty of truly vegetarian options. Food is delicious, fresh, and healthy! Environment is pleasant. Prices reasonable. We were similarly impressed the second time we went, too. We'll be back often. read more

Okay, just had a terrible delivery experience. I liked the place even though it was incredibly expensive. I specifically asked for a receipt and never got one. My order was wrong. They give measly tsp of sauces for your dishes. Also the fact that the packaging comes in styrofoam. I can't see myself eating here again. If anyone knows of a good vietnamese restaurant that is quality service and great tasting food. Please hit me up. I wouldn't recommend this place for delivery! read more
