I didn't go to all…read morethe restaurants either but the people at Bahn Mi Nhon Hoa were pleasant and the bubble tea juice slushy was flavourful. I think it's real fruit but theirs also powder sugary items too. The avocado bubble tea was delicious. And then my friend and I tried 3 different items and the waitress served them on different dishes and put them in the middle of the restaurant table. The best out of those 3 items was the Salad Roll and the savoury brown sweet sauce and then the item on the far left of the picture I took, a type of seafood fish bread. The middle item was like an egg roll with some sort of meat, probably chicken or pork in the middle. It was good but the oils were too thick and soaked into everything. The oily greasy element hurt my stomach and gave me a small headache so I can't say I enjoyed it thoroughly but taste wise it probably would satisfy someone. My friend seemed to like everything but we didn't finish that dish first. The place is kind of small but the menu is efficiently full of different types of dishes. I recommend ordering from here atleast once.

Hubs and I shared chicken satay sub ($7), Peachy colada (fresh fruit bubble tea $6), beef salad rolls ($8), and Pho ($12). Everything was delicious! The salad roll dipping sauce was sweeter than I am used to and less peanut based. Still good - just different. All of their bubble teas are fresh fruit based which makes this Mom very happy. They can also do a dairy free option. Of course the bread and butter here are the delicious subs! Bread is baked in house daily and oh so perfect. I can't wait to go back and try a different sub, the spicy noodle soup, and a vermicelli bowl!

I don't come here for a vermicelli bowl because I know that I will be disappointed (and there is no better vermicelli bowl in all of YEG + area than Golden Bird in Chinatown but I digress...) but we do come here for satay noodle soup.

The salad rolls are darn good and reasonable at $3 for two vegetarian rolls or $4.50 with meat. #38 Spicy Beef Satay Noodle Soup and Pork Salad Rolls are pretty well my idea of heaven on a cold winter's night.

A BAD hole in the wall restaurant…read more So this is my best friend's Vietnamese restaurant and she invited me there last night. It is truly a hole in the wall, independently owned restaurant. The people there were very nice, but it's definitely one of those places where you don't want to look closely at anything! I had the #8 - vermicelli bowl with spring rolls. The bowl looked like a typical bowl with the accompanying fish sauce. It did smell a bit off, but I didn't think too much of it as my friend eats here all the time. The restaurant was filled with the typical grease smoke and the skip orders were a constant sound. Needless to say, I ate my bowl until I was full because it seemed to be a popular place. About 3 hours later, my stomach and intestines had a slight burn-y feeling and I thought it was indigestion. Nope! It hit me at 1 AM, running to the bathroom at full tilt, scared that I was going to defecate in my Pjs. It had continued into the next day were I had to call in sick to work. I am a strong supporter of small family businesses, but this experience will haunt me and I won't be going back. Too bad.

On a snowy day, I ordered the pho with medium rare steak and added the spring rolls and pop. I also got tea which was $3, but the pot lasted my visit. It was lunch so the wait wasn't long. The broth was tasty, and I enjoyed the meat and noodles. The size wasn't huge, but with the spring rolls, I was satisfied. The service was friendly, and the washrooms were clean.

I have ordered shrimp salad roll (available with pork, beef, chicken or shrimp, 2 or 4) with peanut sauce. This one never fails, wherever I have it !! At Halong Bay, the salad roll was excellent and delicious, and very fresh!! The peanut sauce was very tasty as well. My main course was a grilled chicken noodle dish served with vermicelli noodles, sliced grilled chicken, flavourful broth and a mix of sliced lettuce, cucumbers, carrots and bean sprouts. Their menu is a traditional Vietnamese menu, with appetizers (spring rolls, lettuce roll, chicken wings, green onion cakes, to name a few) vermicelli noodles, pho soups, and rice dishes. Pork, chicken, seafood, and beef are available for any dishes, so many dishes and flavours available for every taste. The restaurant interior is very nice, beautiful decoration, relaxing music in the background (so you don't have to talk loud if in the company of someone else). Service was also very good, friendly and quick. Definitely a place to return and eat good foods.

We came just before the lunch rush on the weekend so we had more seating options to choose from. Wait time wasn't too long for food. But I only saw one guy waiting on all the tables and a woman popping in and out to serve food from the kitchen, so that's understandable. We ordered the Green Onion Pancake and the Bun Bo Hue without pork. The Green Onion Pancake was fluffy, flavorful, and tasty. And the Bun Bo Hue was so delicious. The broth was light but still very good and flavorful too. There was a good amount of beef pieces and all the veggies tasted crunchy and fresh. Everything we ordered was fantastic. And the service was even better. We were greeted warmly, were always checked on, and we even shared part of our culture with the man serving us. I will never forget the way we were treated and how down to earth he was. This was the first time I was here but it definitely won't be the last. Thank you for taking care of us! We'll be back soon :)
