We got takeout from this place recently. Food is just as good as it was before, lots of food for good price. The pho came out with super hot broth. Noodles were cooked well, filled with beef slices, brisket, meatballs and other beef meats. The bean sprouts were decently plentiful. The broth is okay, definitely on the salty side but does have beef flavor. 4.5/5. Grilled pork vermicelli with spring rolls and sausage. The noodles were a bit on the dry side but there was tons. The meat and veges were in decent amount and good flavor. The spring roll isn't the most authentic but hits the spot. 4/5. Sweet and sour chicken in rice. They use the same veges as the vermicelli which is fine. The chicken has a nice batter that keeps its crunch despite the sauce. The flavor hits the spot, nothing amazing but still good. Everything sits on a giant bed of rice. 3.5/5. Stir fried udon with shrimp. The udon noodles have a nice chew and flavor. The shrimp are nice and big. Vegetables are fresh and crisp. 4.5/5. Price: great price for what you get! read more

This is a small shop close to the supermarket. There's one entrance close to Popeyes and the other is to the main corridor of the plaza. The menu is shown in photos above and around the counter. The beef balls in #4 were cut in half so it looked like more than it was. It was an okay bowl of pho, not terrible but also not the greatest. It sufficiently filled me up and I didn't even finish all the noodles. There is a comparable pho restaurant in the area and that one was better (had more ingredients and a better broth) than this one and cheaper as well. They were busy when we went. This would be contributed to being close to a middle school and high school. read more

This restaurant is located inside the plaza, which might be confusing if you're looking for an entrance outside. Which can be a good thing, because patio seats means you're sitting right next to the hallway. Well, it is an interesting set up. They've got different types of dishes. Pho, bun, grilled meat on rice, some vegetable dishes, etc. Prices are competitive I guess for cooked food? You're looking at $9 for a bowl but it comes with one size only. I mean, you are right next to a massive chinese supermarket so you definitely have a lot of ... alternatives to choose from when it comes to food options. And there's a BBQ place around the corner as well. Bean sprouts are included in the bowl, if you don't notice them like me and decided to ask for more. You could probably try asking for more anyways. If you need some chili peppers just ask for it. Food was alright. I personally find it a bit small and wish they would offer upsizes for an extra dollar or something. The broth made me thirsty after awhile; good thing there's that chinese supermarket to pick up some drinks. Would probably only come here if I'm also doing groceries. read more

Pretty good pho in this plaza. They only do one size bowls and everything is pretty much under $10. Quick service, no nonsense kind of place. I liked the pho, the meatballs were good and not full of cartridge. I would def come back for a quick bite there if I need pho! read more

I was around the area and saw this place, honestly didn't have high expectations since it looked a bit run down but was pleasantly surprised! I got the chicken vermicelli and iced milk tea and both were surprisingly good! The milk tea was creamy and had strong tea flavour. The chicken vermicelli was loaded with veggies and generous portions of meat. The girl there was very friendly and nice! I enjoyed my meal there and will def go again if I am in the area. Prices are reasonable. read more

I was actually going to get groceries but was hungry and as I was walking towards the grocery store I saw a sign with different deals. The prices looked fair so I decided to go in. I ordered the house special Vietnamese noodle beef soup. I sat down and in about five minutes my hot bowl of noodle soup came to me. The first thing I did is take a sip of the soup and the broth tasted very good was actually very impressed with the soup broth. it was definitely very good and the portions for good had a lot of meat and I strongly recommend that anybody that's in that area to make their way to this restaurant because it was a pleasant surprise read more

Saigon Express Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

pretty hidden in a plaza and looks a little rundown me and my friends all got the pho and i got the number one for $8.25. it arrived pretty quickly and came with a decent portion. some black pepper was sprinkled at the top which I haven't seen before at other pho restaurants. Overall this pho place is pretty average and not a must go to but if you are craving pho this place is decent. the meat was tender and the noodles were good however the soup didn't have the best flavour. don't think I would come here again because it didn't stand out to me read more

I'm a student and I live really close by. Unless I m hanging out with friends, I go here to eat every single day. The reasons why I like here so much are the food taste really delicious (I tried everything in the menu), the price are cheap for this quality and quantity. I have been to Vietnam twice in my life, and I love pho a lot. I tried different pho in Toronto but I think this place have the most similar soup base compare to what I had in Vietnam. Although the pho noodles are not as good as Vietnam, It is still pretty good compare to most of the place in Toronto. The beef are fresh and just perfectly done every single time (never over cook. I hate well done beef in a pho). Their grilled lemongrass beef, pork chop and chicken taste really amazing and really juicy. I don't know what's their secret methods but I know whenever I order it and they will grill it at that time. They make sure the food that provide to customers are freshly made. Tbh. I love the lemongrass even more than the pho haha. The last part of their menu are Thai food. I tried all of them and my recommendation will be pad Thai, Malaysian fry rice, Thai beef and the red curry chicken. Pad Thai - their sauce just perfectly prefect. Not too sour, not too sweet. Just right Malaysian - smells really good, a little spicy and the favour will be a little bit like xo sauce. Thai beef - fresh deep fry beef with their own secret sauce. Similar to other Thai food. Sweet and sour and a bit of spicy. Yummy. Red curry chicken - a little of spicy , love their curry sauce. Delicious. All the food served with rice and veggies except pho of cuz. Most of the food are around $8-$10 and really good amount of food. I know I might be over compliment but this is one of my favourite restaurant so yeah lol. read more

Saigon Express Pho - My own secret order - lemongrass chicken and pork chop. Not on the menu haha - Vietnamese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Very mediocre pho, to say the least. Everything is pretty average in it: broth, meat, vegetables. Meat topping was generous but beef in my bowl was very chewy and not tasty; broth tasted bland too. Price is a tad high considering the fact that you place your order at the counter and bring it to your own table when it is ready. I guess the higher price goes to the servers' tip? I have no complaints here as staff is friendly. However, all in all I don't recommended it, unless you are happy with a quick fix of "unauthentic" pho. read more

They spit in the egg yolk if you order takeout. The first time I ordered lemongrass chicken w/ fried egg on rice. My egg yolk tasted a bit salty it threw me off cause I eat eggs all the time and I know egg yolk does not have any salty taste. While I was waiting for my food I can hear the chefs spitting and thought that was odd that they would be spitting while cooking my food. read more

I don't literally sure you fellows are so nice about these mediocre food and mean service or what, or you guys had never ever eaten pho before? There is no vegetable plate, nor free water offered. Come on man! Bean sprout and mint are the cheapest vegetables in Tone Tai Supermarket and it is just near this pho booths! Soup tastes ok, but just okay,without the smell of lemongrass. And pricing is really not worthy and ridiculously higher than average. read more

Ordered their coconut chicken fried rice ($8.50?) Got it to go. For a location in this area, their food isn't cheap. Pho starts at just above $7.00, if I'm not mistaken. Anyways, back to my order. My dad chose to order this, and when he did, I already knew that I shouldn't have high expectations for it. The picture of this fried rice on their overhead menu was very yellow. As in curry yellow. When I order coconut fried rice and it comes very yellow, I'm always highly skeptical of how much coconut is going to be in it. Usually, it's stronger on the curry than the coconut. The coconut chicken fried rice here proved to be no exception to this rule. There was absolutely NO coconut taste. There was also very little chicken, and not many vegetables. Way too much rice to other stuff in this fried rice. The rice itself was not dry enough (as in not enough wok heat). The grains of rice in fried rice are supposed to separate. This was incredibly clumpy. Taste-wise, this was fairly heavy on the curry powder. It tasted like a clumpy rice version of Singapore fried vermicelli. I'm sorely disappointed. I will (hopefully) never get rice from here ever again. We'll see about their pho. read more

Amazing pork chop and rice fresh with charcoal grill must try !! We came with 4 friends and we try the pho look great too read more

Awful. Too many noodles, not enough meat in their special - I was fishing around just to find some tendon (which was quite soft, I have to say). They mix in the bean sprouts rather than serve it on the side, which I don't like, and they don't even understand Viet...so ordering a Ca Phe Sua was a bit confusing - especially as they don't have it anyway! For what you get for $8, I'd say find a better place. read more

Saigon express serves pretty good Vietnamese dishes. I've been here a couple of times and I always get the lemongrass porkchop/chicken or their house special pho. The food is always fresh and their portions are huge. Their service is pretty quick too. I would recommend it to anyone in the area. read more

Best Pho in the Toronto! Quality quantity and price amazing friendly and positive service!

Located in the peanut plaza and is pretty small, like some of the other places in the plaza it can be overlooked. Been getting pho here once in a while and their broth seems surprisingly good. Not the best pho place I've been to but it's def a good place to check out if you love pho or if you're in the area and just want to grab some quick pho. The only thing I wish they had was the option for portion sizes for pho like at other restaurants. The pho here only comes in one standard size when you order it. Overall I'd come back once in a while. read more

Came here for lunch and had their beef pho. Broth was bland and there was some strange odor coming from the bowl. Beef was also slightly over done. Unlike regular sit down pho restaurants, you don't get a plate of sprouts and mint leaves. Instead, it's all in the bowl (whether you like it or not). read more

Pretty well priced and fast service , hence their name "express " . Usually order pho , but the chicken wings are also pleasantly satisfying and is also great value . Don't expect luxury pho here , but is more of casual and comfort food . Overall, customer service and food is good . read more
