    Beetle Leaf Wrapped Beef, Sugarcane wrapped with Shrimp
    Lindsey D.

    Had a morning tennis match and came in for a quick bite before work. Beef stew noodles 12.95 Nice chunks of beef shank, soup was rich. Beetle Leaf wrapped beef, Fried Shrimp wrapped over sugarcane 14.95 Thought this was a side, it was actually an entree, 3 pieces of beef and 3 pieces of fried shrimp on a bed of salad and vermicelli. Overall, everything was fresh and tasty and I wasn't thirsty post meal. 3.5/5 There is allot of competition for Pho in Vancouver. For the area, it's tasty eats.

    Lemongrass with everything (pork, chicken, shredded pork, and an egg).

    If you want a spicy banh mi, you'll get one of the spiciest banh mi in town if you get the banh mi with siracha and peppers. If you the traditional banh mi (what they call special vietnamese ham), it's solid. Other dishes can be hit or miss. Lemongrass dishes are decent. Bun bo hue (called hue's spicy beef soup on the menu) is incredibly bland. Service seems quick and prices are pretty standard for the neighborhood.

    One line review: Good food, uneven service. Took one of my staff here for lunch during an all day staff meeting. We had: -Chicken and spring roll vermicelli - Beef, shrimp, and pork sausage vermicelli The food was tasty. It was a slightly smaller portion than expected. I still got plenty to eat, but there were no leftovers (not like usual for me). Service was mediocre; we were ignored a couple of times, and the server seemed kind of unfriendly. He was busy, but... If I were breaking it down, I would give 4 for the food, 2 for the service. To be fair, I have had better service in this same restaurant, so it really is better sometimes. Bottom line: I still like this place and will continue to return here on occasion. I have always enjoyed the food; the service varies.

    Iced Coconut Drink

    Really solid food at good value. I had the vegan Tropical Rice Dish: salad, lotus veggies, tofu, and spring roll with rice. The inclusion of the spring roll was what made me decide to get this particular item, and I'm really glad I did because this was one of the best spring rolls I've had. I'm not sure what they used as a meat substitute in the filling but it was delicious - it had a rich but not meaty flavour and gave the filling a hearty, chewy texture, and the wrapper was perfectly crispy. The tofu and lotus pieces were also tasty and cooked perfectly. The salad was very fresh. Even the plain rice was fantastic: there was nothing "special" about this, they just managed to get everything just right. The portion size was just right for me: I left feeling satisfied but not overly full. I also had the Iced Coconut Drink (coconut water and/or juice with pieces of coconut meat) and thought it was good - sweet but pleasant flavour and a lot of coconut meat, but not so much that it took away from the "drink" part of the drink. The only downside was that it took a really long time for us to get our food after ordering. I wasn't watching the clock, so I'm not sure of the exact time, but it was an unusually long wait considering the restaurant had only a modest crowd eating in and the flow of takeout was also pretty mild. Aside from the wait, the service was very polite, and the waitress did stop by to let us know our food was still in progress after we'd waited for a while. I liked the unpretentious atmosphere. It's nice to see they have so many vegan dishes, and I'd definitely go back to try more on occasion, but the wait time (if it's consistently this long) would prevent me from making myself a regular here.

    Lemongrass tofu salad rolls (vegan)
    Matt B.

    I'm not usually on this side of town, but after seeing their extensive vegan menu, we decided to grab take-out for lunch. My wife split the lemongrass tofu salad rolls ($6.95 plus tax) and each got the spicy noodle soup ($11.95 plus tax). The order was ready in ~10 mins. The salad rolls were very tasty, with nicely seasoned tofu and a well-done peanut sauce. Nothing extraordinary here, but these were definitely solid. 4/5 The soups were very plentiful: large serving of noodles, mixed veggies, and tofu, with the usual toppings (sprouts, lime, basil). The broth was very tasty and comes in a generous portion, being gently spicy, but on the pretty mild side as far as pho goes (even for a spicy version). These certainly left us quite full. Enjoyable. 4/5 I'd definitely return if on the far west side again. I might try their other noodle soups (the vegan crab and tomato, and the vegan curry & vermicelli noodle soups both look interesting). Reasonably priced, generous portion, and very tasty. Recommended for a west-side vegan Vietnamese option.

    My first visit. Guy sitting outside said it's his regular spot and food is great. I ordered 2 prawn slad rolls and lemongrass beef for take out. Got home and the salad rolls were completely different sizes, I tried to eat them and the rice wrapper was so hard in places that I had to spit it out. They seemed old and not freshly made. There was a 1 smelly prawn in each and just noodles and lettuce. I have made better at home. The other dis was ok, nothing spectacular, did nt have any lemon grass flavour. B.t.w my food looked nothing like the peoles eating at the this place. Left a message, someone called back and kept saying ok, ok, when I said are you listening....hung up on me. Very dissapointing. I definately would not go back.

    A good Pho joint doesn't need to be complicated. Just have really good soup, a few extras, and a humble atmosphere This place hits it out of the park in all those important parameters. Soup is Awesome, with excellent broth, and yummy everything else They have an awesome pork broth that I don't get in many other places, and they also serve a really good satay, and it's a really cozy place I feel comfortable stuffing myself, talking loud, or not talking at all, and not worrying that my little boy is making a mess.

    Some sort of boiled sausage in water?

    I have walked by this place for so long, not realizing it's a restaurant and bar! Yes, of course…read moreyou have your wall(s) of hot sauce, and offerings of the Hot Ones challenge, but more importantly, they have put their hot sauces to test, pairing them with their huge line up of dishes. I came in to check for a sauce my friend asked for but stayed for a bite! Did I mention that this place is cheap AF!? I don't know how they do it but it's incredibly affordable and the quality of food is impressive! I got their Veggies on Fire (Cheddar, lettuce, sprouts, tomato, cucumber, green pepper, pickles, red onion, banana peppers, Dijon, spicy mayo - Hot Sauce: Dawson's Shawarma). This was $8. Plus I added waffle fries, which I don't even care for. But these were heavily seasoned and cooked to perfection. The sandwiches come with chips but you can't miss the fries. You can choose which breads you want and I choose sourdough. Highly recommend that you toast that bread. The sandwich was huge and staked with so many veggies. The hot sauce was very mild but paired so well. The service was phenomenal! Above and beyond and so friendly. The place gets quite busy, understandable, and they are still so patient and friendly. I can't wait to try their extensive menu and order their veggie friendly menu options! And, obvy, their 1000 hot sauces!

    I fell in love with this place…read more The place itself just draws you in. The vibe is great food, awesome beer, cool staff and good old American Rock on the stereo to get you there. I love wings....and these guys know how to make 'em. The range and taste of the many hot sauces is not just crazy good but actually quite impressive. Their sandwiches are also mouthwatering good... Actually I just stuffed myself with their wings and sandwiches an hour ago, and just writing this review makes me want more....yup....:/ It was our first time there and what really stood out was how helpful and friendly their staff are. Truly, genuinely and whole heartedly they take care of you. If you love hot wings, a nice cold beer and tasty bar food this place has taken it to another level...not by fancy booths, shiny exterior or flashy pretends....but simply quality food, drinks and service. Looking forward to going back.

    I was soooo hungry and could smell something delicious coming from this little shop at Granville St…read moreand 11th. It was around 1pm on a Friday, it was very quiet. Found a table right away. There are some small tables for two along with high tables. I ordered the 'hot' sandwich, chicken parm. I was expecting crispy chicken parm with yummy cheese and rich tomatoe sauce. Let's be honest, the star of this show is the bread! The baguette was warm, soft and so delicious. However, that's where the excitement stopped for me. The chicken with breading was soggy and the pesto and mozzarella was such a small amount, it felt like a soggy chicken sandwich with lots of bread. If they put more pesto dressing, more mozzarella cheese and more tomatoe sauce, I could have looked past the soggy chicken. All in all, I'm glad it tried it, the bread is amazing, and I'll come back to try a 'cold' sandwich to see if the other options are better!

    Waste of money. $15 for dry bun, simple sandwich withSINGLE slice of meat. The subway sandwiches…read morehave twice the meat for half the price. Nothing special nor any extra extraordinary ingredients. The staff were nice. I don't think it's the staff's fault. It's just how they're told to make the sandwich. Came into the shop hungry paid $15 for a sandwich and left hungry was almost going to get up until the next two customers so I just walked in to save their money. Hopefully this will reach more people.
