I was meeting a travel client in the area and was looking for a place to eat for myself before I met them for coffee. I Googled restaurants in the area and was craving Pho and saw this restaurant was highly rated. I ordered the shrimp salad rolls and Beef Pho and both were delicious. The restaurant was clean and welcoming and the service was amazing. Will definitely return. read more

Thiên An is a great restaurant for Vietnamese cuisine. The service is fast and friendly, and the food is really delicious! I ordered a chicken, shrimp and spring roll vermicelli bowl. I really liked the flavour of the grilled chicken and the vegetables were really fresh. I will be returning soon to try more dishes! read more

Oh my goodness, we finally came here after living in the area for a bunch of years and we should have come earlier. Not only did my toddler have a great time but so did the adults! We ordered a bunch of different items and we really loved them. Everything from the lemongrass chicken to the Thai iced tea (with tapioca bubbles!) to the shrimp and the coconut rice, pad thai and mango bubble tea was well-received. The toddler ate so many garnishes, sauces, meat, rice, noodles and even finished many vegetables. Service was quick and the staff were so kind as to feed the fish so that my toddler could see them be super active! There is a beaded curtain on the way to the restroom which fascinated the kid too. I will certainly be back in the future. The kid's favourite fish was the white one. My personal highlight was the lemongrass chicken. I love how there are so many vegetables to go with the mains that we ordered. Flavours were great. I even liked the glassware used for our beverages (the kid got a smaller water glass and the kid's bubble tea was thankfully served in a to-go cup as a toddler cannot finish that big of a beverage and still eat so much delicious food! read more

The broth here is one of a kind out of all pho restaurants in the city. This is the only pho place me and my partner come back to as we've tried different places it just doesn't hit like Thien An. The service is really good and the owner lady is so sweet. Her husband is also there to help her which is really great to show how good of a family buisness this is. They are very welcoming and friendly. Food comes in on time and the place looks oriental. Ambience is perfect for eating Pho! Its very calming and spacious and not too busy. I'd say it's a hidden gem. read more

Brought hubs here for an early Father's Day lunch after reading fabulous reviews. Loved the vibe and layout from the moment we entered. The playful black and white checkered ceiling tiles kept me smiling throughout the meal. The staff were friendly and attentive. I liked that the water automatically had lemon in it (hubs did not, oops). We opted to try the grilled lemongrass beef salad rolls to start - yum! I ordered the combo Bun Vermicelli bowl since I'm a vermicelli girl by nature. I really liked the fried onions sprinkles on top. Unfortunately I did not like the shrimp/fish cake. I'm a DIE HARD Golden Bird Vermicelli girl so it's hard to improve upon that. Hubs tried the Vietnamese Style Soup. The flavour was great - but admittedly we were a bit squeamish with the fat/tendons. Both of us thought the mains were lacking in meat considering the prices. I ordered a Vietnamese Iced Coffee to go that was perfect! All in all, really liked Thien An and will definitely be back and next time I'll ask the server for recommendations of what they're favourite dishes are. Clean, bright, and playful atmosphere - perfect for a Vietnamese Newbie that might be a bit shy in China Town. See you soon Thien An, see you soon! read more

Thien An Restaurant - Beef stir fry - Vietnamese Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Thien An is a new Vietnamese restaurant to open us in this neck of the woods. Not much is in this area except we did pass Pho & Bun a few blocks west on the way back home. There's plenty of room to park and they even have a lot in the back. We came on a late Monday afternoon so there were only a few tables occupied. The inside is new and quite spacious. The menu is massive but the southern Vietnamese soup (hu tiu mi) and beef stew (bo kho) caught my eye. - Fresh salad roll with tofu (V2) ($6.00 for four) - these were nicely done. Slightly warmed, freshly made and with a good peanut dipping sauce. - Veggie noodle soup (V9) ($10.50) - O's converted to partial vegetarianism so it was veggie soup for her. She liked the broth and it looked like a satisfactory amount of tofu, vegetables and noodles. - Hu tieu nam vang (H2) ($13.00) - smelled great. You choose either egg noodles or rice noodles. I asked about it and you actually can get a mix, so I tried both. You get a variety of meat (beef, shrimp, squid and ground pork) but a bit more meat and noodles would justify the higher price point. That being said, the broth was solid and had a sweetness to it similar to what you find in a wonton/egg noodle soup. What I found interesting was the shape of their bowls. The top part of the bowl forms into a square shape. Odd. Good first experience. I'd come back to try their bo koh and other pho options. 3.5 stars. read more

Love this place good food great service large clean setting really comfortable for enjoying and visiting

I was in the Forest Heights area on business and stopped in here for lunch. The place is large and beautiful, and the staff wonderful. The menu has an extensive selection of Vietnamese and other Asian dishes like soup, noodle bowls, stir fry, and a selection of vegetarian items. I went with the tofu pad thai. The portion was huge, it was flavourful without being too spicy, and there was a lot of tofu. I also ordered two veggie spring rolls on the side, which were crispy and fresh. My friend was not happy with his peach shrimp - he said they were fried shrimp covered in mayonnaise, with canned peaches on the side. He also did not like or finish his chicken stir fry, as the chicken had an odd texture - kind of soft and rubbery. I would come here again to try something Vietnamese like pho or a vermicelli bowl, but perhaps stay away from anything with chicken in it. read more

This is our go to vietnamese restaurant for lunch (from work)... so needless to say, my coworkers and I go there often. This place has always had super friendly and accommodating service when we have gone in. Their prices are pretty average but the quality of food is better than a lot of other places in the area or even in the city. They have a fairly typical menu with all the normal tasty vietnamese dishes (soups rice noodle bowls, stirfries, grilled meat salads, salad rolls, etc) and a decently large vegetarian selection. I would definitely recommend the sate peanut soup - delicious with a little bit of spicy. So perfect for a cold day or if maybe you have had a bit too much to drink the night before. I wish this place was actually closer to my home cause I would probably make it one of my go to Vietnamese places but I will settle for it being a nice treat on a work day. read more

Great great rest !!!! Food is great! Cleanliness ...hospitality great ! Highly recommending for all to try !!!!

I was impressed with this little neighbourhood restaurant. The place boasts a fairly large, well decorated dining area which was three quarters full on a Tuesday night. With all of the Vietnamese options available in Edmonton, this level of patronage is a great sign. Following someone's recommendation, I had the P6 which is pho with brisket, rare beef, tripe and tendon. That's my kind of noodle soup! When it arrived, I could smell its fragrant aroma even before it touched the table. The condiments were plenteous. The regular bowl I ordered was a great size for a great price. I was ready for a feast! The first few bites matched my expectation. The flavours were rich. I thought perhaps I had found a new favourite location for pho. As I continued, however, I found the flavours flattened and the broth just couldn't live up to what I had elsewhere. Their pho is better than so many other locations I've tried, although not my favourite, so I certainly recommend checking it out. It may match your personal preference perfectly. You'll never know till you check it out. read more

Decided to try a new place and ended up finding this hidden gem! We had the combo platter to start and then I had the curry chicken as my main.. now I wasn't expecting it to be a soup but it was sure amazing! And my rice came out in a heart shape too, so cute! I ended up cutting my meal short as I saw the deep fried ice cream on the dessert menu and could not pass it up and I man I was not disappointed. Everything was very good and the staff was super friendly. I will be back for sure read more

Decided to finally check out Thien An tonight after driving past about a hundred times. Happy to report that it did live up to the hype. A modern and sleep interior with fancy lighting, checker board ceiling and plants galore. It was roomy and even the chairs were fancy leather seating but the do offer booster seats for those dining with kids. They also have two large TVs, one at each end of the room, so you can watch the Oilers at the same time! My group ordered the appetizer combo which came with spring rolls, shrimp rolls, shrimp cake and veg rolls. I'm not usually into veg rolls but these tasted great with the satay dip on the side. We shared pork fried rice, ginger beef and combination Pad Thai. They were all tasty but the pork fried rice was extremely good. Friendly service, great food, loads of left overs and free parking. Oh yeah! read more

The decor is very nice, I particularly like the square pane door and the checkerboard ceiling. There is lots of parking out front and a fence to lock your bikes to in front of the windows. My server was quick and friendly and my food came out in under five minutes; if you're on a short lunch this would be a great spot to stop. I had the grilled pork and spring roll vermicelli. I was a little put off because the noodles they use are more like spaghetti then vermicelli but the flavour was wonderful so I can overlook it. The pork was grilled perfectly, the spring roll was delicious,and the portion was huge. I'll definitely be back. read more

If you follow any of my reviews, you know pho is my favourite food and I eat a lot it lol. Imagine my delight to see this restaurant opening up literally at the end of my block! We noticed they finally were open and popped in for lunch. It was busy and the servers were new, but very friendly and very attentive! I ordered a Vietnamese iced coffee which is premade for you. Maybe a little too sweet doe my liking, but it can always be touch and go. We ordered the shrimp cakes and spring rolls to start. The spring rolls were very large! Great potion size doe the price! I'd never had shrimp cakes before. I was thinking they might be crispy but they weren't - more of an omelette texture. My husband didn't like it but I thought it was tasty and an interesting texture. For the main course, I ordered the P6 Pho. Tripe, tendon, rare beef in a flavourful broth. It was delicious! The large is a little smaller than other places, but the price was right! I prefer my broth spicy and the server was happy to bring me out a little jar of chili oil. My husband ordered the beef on rice and he said was absolutely delicious and seemed to be a good sized portion. I will be back. A lot! read more

Mini Special Appetizer and Rare Beef, Brisket, Tendon & Tripe Noodle Soup Thien An is a fairly new pho place in the Capilano area. Wasn't too hungry but had to try this mini special appetizer that had one of everything on the appetizer list. It had a spring roll, salad roll, shrimp cake, and a torpedo shrimp. Surprisingly decent spring roll, and even tastier torpedo shrimp because it had cream cheese i think between the shrimp and wrapper. The pho wasn't bad, not great, but it was standard pho. Big bowl at a standard price. They also serve banh mi's here which is a rarity for most pho place, but it's nice that they offer. Located on 101 ave and 73st, it's a nice clean restaurant with quick service. Try all the appetizers if you're in the area and maybe a banh mi for takeout. Sal says: Just Try It Erik says: I probably wouldn't go there unless I lived in the area. read more

The fresh spring roll with grilled pork was delicious. I really liked that the peanut dipping sauce that came with it was served warm. So good. For mains, I tried the house special pho and vermicelli bowl. Both were quite good, especially the grilled meat in the vermicelli bowl. However, I found some slices of beef in the pho to be a tad tough. The avocado shake is pretty decent as well. Restaurant looks super clean and service was excellent. I'll be back! read more

I live close by to this restaurant and I have been meaning to try it for a long time. I ordered takeout for my husband and I and the person that I talked to on the phone was so friendly! They said it would be ready in ten minutes which is really quick. My husband went to pick it up and the first thing he said to me when he got home was wow the people who work there are so nice! He also said the restaurant was updated and nice on the inside. We both ordered vermicelli bowls and they wear so fresh and delicious. I got grilled beef on mine and it was cooked perfect. I normally find some meat on vermicelli bowls at other restaurants too tough or stringy that I can't eat all of it, but this beef was so delicious I couldn't get enough! My husband got the pork and shrimp and he loved it! We will definitely be ordering from here again! read more

We were seated quickly on a busy Friday evening in this quaint restaurant that is conveniently located just off 101 Ave. The interior is clean and modern and the staff were quick to offer us water and tea for no charge. The beef pho has a very flavourful broth with a good portion of both beef and noodles. It came with a large side plate of bean sprouts and Thai basil to add as you wish. It was very tasty and still a fairly light soup. The pork and shrimp cake was also a large portion that was a balanced combination of fresh vegetables, rice noodles and fried meats. read more

It's good! We were hyped up when a new pho place opened in our neighborhood. One step inside and we knew we were in good hands. Clean, quiet, and crisp. Delicious salad rolls, and onion cakes to die for. Yummy dishes; we shared vermicelli and rice dishes with the girls and everyone loved them. Very tasty sauces and a good mix of vegetables and meat. We'll be back soon! read more

Fantastic experience here. The curry is spot on. They're smart in offering appetizers in combos. Great atmosphere and a modest price.

So very good. Sister was recommended by some family members that run a nail salon and is very good. I love to support small business and love the selection of food they have. The quality of the food is also marginally better then most other Vietnamese food places which is super appreciated. It's also very authentic and have food from different parts read more

DO NOT EAT HERE. My partner and I have been going to Thien An for a few months now and were happy to have a new Vietnamese restaurant in our area. The food was decent and the service pretty good. I eat mostly a plant-based diet so I would usually stick to one of the vegetarian dishes, but tonight I decided to try something new: a "Toasted Chicken Soup", apparently a southern Vietnamese specialty. I asked the server what "toasted" meant and he told me it simply meant grilled chicken, instead of boiled. No biggie...If I DO eat meat, 9/10 times it is chicken. The soup arrived quickly but immediately, the meat looked 'off': it was red/brown, didn't look grilled at all, and the dish looked hastily put together. But whatever -- I was hungry. So I began eating and took a bite of said meat. It was not chicken...there was NO WAY! It tasted like BBQ duck -- more of a musky taste, the texture was nothing at all like any chicken I've ever had, and the dark pink/red/brown colour was present throughout. There was also fatty tissue on it that I don't usually see in grilled chicken, and I have been eating at Vietnamese restaurants for over 15 years. It was clearly bbq duck...or something else??? I had my co-diner try it, who is a total carnivore and eats BBQ duck regularly, and he confirmed that this indeed tasted like duck, and there was no way it was chicken. We waved over the server, whom I see there all the time, to ask if they'd made a mistake -- "Is this duck?" He told me that no, that's not possible, we do not serve duck on our menu.... "Thats's what I thought!" I replied, and then he quickly slinked away without offering me another version of the soup or, an alternate dish else to improve my experience. There's nothing being worse than being lied to as a loyal customer.... It also makes me wonder why they were serving a meat that is not even on their menu -- sketchy! -- so what other corners are they cutting in the kitchen??? We will never go back, and will tell everyone we know not to eat here. Sorry, Thien An -- you need to be honest with your customers. read more

We went on a Tuesday night. The restaurant was empty which threw me of a bit. The restaurant was super clean and it was nicely decorated. We ordered the rare beef and beef ball pho, the well done beef and beef ball soup and we had deep fried squid to start. The soup broth was good, not the best I've tasted but not the worst. The squid was quite good, the flavour was great! The only thing I would have like is if it where deep fried a bit longer. The main reason I am giving a 4 star is that the restaurant is very very clean and the decor is much nicer than other Vietnamese food places. I will be back to try their vermicelli bowls that look great! read more
