I don’t usually go to vietnamese restaurant as I concern about the msg. But I felt like noodle soup when I was in Mississauga last week and found this place on Unilocal but was feeling that I was taking a risk. To my surprise, this place was so good and it changed my perception of vietnamese food. The restaurant is spacious and looks very clean. I ordered the small phở with raw beef and I was concerned not enough, but surprisingly, it had lots of meat and noodles. And I had some of the soup and I didn’t taste msg. Yay! We also ordered the kang kong with beef and it was very tasty and they gave lots of beef. I think next time when I go to mississauga, I would definitely come back here.

I usually go to Phở Do Thi for Vietnamese food, but this time wanted to try somewhere new. I’ve noticed Phở Mi 99 whenever I visit Guru’s or Marble Slab, so that’s how I made my choice. This restaurant is pretty private, whereby the windows are quite covered so that it’s difficult to take a see the inside, so when we stepped in I was really surprised as it was nicely decorated(compared to all the hole-in-the wall Vietnamese restaurants that I’ve seen. Also it was completely packed, and I was lucky to get the last table available. Once we sat down and immediately was given the menu, I noticed that the line of people by the entrance kept growing longer by the minute. It as boiling hot outside that day so the thought of getting the usual Phở was out of the question for me. I decided to risk it and order something different, which was the Vermicelli with grilled chicken. The service was very quick. We ordered the Vietnamese ice coffee, which was served in a way I’ve never seen before, whereby they gave a separate glass filled with ice and another glass with some condensed milk and a coffee drip over it. This made the coffee much more strong, which I feel was better. The food arrived in no time and was served with a side of sauce, which I assume was fish sauce, but not 100% sure. I cannot fully explain in writing how the first taste of the chicken made me feel. That first bite just left me speechless. The chicken was not only extremely juicy and tender, but also the flavour of the marinade/rub was just unbelievable. The chicken had a slight sweet and savoury taste, almost like a teriyaki flavour. The vermicelli noodles were perfectly cooked and not dry, as I assumed they would be without a broth. While eating this amazingness all I was thinking was that I want to eat this everyday. I am not sure if this dish is as delicious only at Phở Mi 9 or if all Vietnamese restaurants make it as great. I will be visiting other Vietnamese restaurants soon just to find out, but for now, based on my experience and the fact that there was such a big crowd and wait to get a table, makes Phở Mi 99 one great find in Sauga. If you want to eat at a place with a good ambiance and crowd, fair prices, and good and fast service then Phở Mi 99(on Latimer road) is definitely the place to go!

Went there on the way to airport for my flight. Pretty busy place. Noodles were fresh, and soup was very good. The fried shrimp cake was not very good. Too much dough not enough shrimp. The portions were huge. I paid for extra meat but need not have. This is the first phở place where I ended up leaving a lot of soup and noodles unfinished. Should have ordered the small size instead of large Will visit again.

My go-to place for phở and viet food in Mississauga! A fast-paced, efficient place where it only takes 5min from sitting down to having food in front of you(only noodles though, stir-fried stuff will take a bit longer). This place is always packed if you go at peak time, so be aware. They DO accept credit card(unlike other busy Asian restaurants). The portion here is huge! I could tell complimentary toppings(fresh bean sprouts, basil leaves, and lime wedges) were very fresh. The broth was flavorful, noodles were cooked perfectly, and meats were tender. Overall, I recommend this place if you want a quick bite. Cheap and good food, quick service. Very casual setting.

Terrible service. There were 6 of us and when we sat down they only gave us 2 menus. We had to ask for more but they still didn’t give us enough for everyone. We asked if they can change the channel of the tv for us and they refused to do it. The food is not as tasty. I tried their curry and it’s really salty. Their phở taste a bit watered down.

Speedy service, generous portions and tasty phở. Have to say though, the washroom needs to be updated. Wouldn’t dare go in again.

Phở #201 and the deep fried spring rolls. Friendly and frightfully efficient In a good way. They drop off tea while you peruse the menu. Magically appear when you write down your order and in what seemed like minutes brought over our phở and the spring rolls shortly after! Good broth, generous portion of noodles and meats and a nice fresh mound of bean sprouts, basil, and greens to go on your phở. Spring roll was crispy but also a bit greasy which is typical. I wish I had one of these closer to me as I would come several days a week! Hit the spot… Definitely…

Great phở restaurant in the center of Heartland shopping center! The plaza has tons of other restaurants but this seemed to be seriously busy. We got seated right away, and service was great. Good came quick, server was helpful, and our dishes were served as requested. Food was great and for the price, portions are huge! Can definitely order and share as a group. Great choice for lunch/dinner if you like phở!

This place is very busy every Sunday during lunch time! I come here on occasion when i’m in the area. There’s a Phở mi 99 near my house as well and tbh they are all the same. Service is fast, there’s a line up(short one) but it gets cleared quickly. A must order are their spring rolls! it good to share and it’s super tasty with the dipping sauce. If i’m not ordering a Phở bowl, i usually get the 501… all the time! chicken, pork chop and egg with steamed rice! mmmmmm! for only 8.50! the portion is huge btw. This is a family place so expect it to be really loud during lunch time on weekends, not a great place to catch up that for sure.

This is where we come on rainy days to enjoy a bowl of chicken phở. Sometimes the broth can be overly salty and other times it is just right. I tend to order half the noodles as it can be much. My husband tried the Cantonese chow mein and it was just ok. We went back to phở.

Twenty years ago I used to go to Phở MI99 at Dundas and Dixie. It had the best Vietnamese food in the city. When I walked into this Mississauga location its like I stepped back in time. While new and modern, the room was identically designed. The tables, the menu, the chatter of Asian clientelle, and even the owner, looking smart in her glasses, at the front counter. She hadn’t changed a bit. And lucky for us, neither has her food. She walked up to me, after not seeing each other in decades and said: «Would you like your usual, bbq pork with egg noodle soup and spring roll?» I was in shock. We often hear about famous businessmen of major corporations doing bold things. What we don’t hear enough about are women like this, who have, over decades, quietly started and built a string of successful businesses by, day-in and day-out, delivering quality and really caring for her customers. When the food came, it was the same umptuous offering it always was. Unbeleivable broth, perfect bbq pork, sweet ground pork and a sprinkling of garlic and onions. Seriously. I’ve eaten everywhere, and this place is, hands down, the best Vietnamese restaurant in the GTA, probably Canada, and possibly one of the best outside of Vietnam. I can’t even articulate how good the fried pork spring rolls are… ridiculous. Do yourself a favour. Eat here.

Update. I am loving the food here. We have been back several times and can say that the food is consistently delicious. I am still having some issues with ordering and the addition of extras but I am loving this place.

I usually come here after a long day of work with my sisters mainly for their hot pot. I love the Thai style broth, it’s sweet, sour and a little bit of spice. Cook all your seafood and beef in the broth… so yummy! Exactly what we needed on this extreme cold day. We get one order of the fixings and share it between 4 ppl. In the platter you get green vegetables(I believe it’s watercress), shrimp, fish, squid, mussels, clam, oysters, beef and rice noodles. You can always order more on top as well, but I found the $ 5 worth of extra beef we ordered was a rip-off…not much for $ 5. All and all… still our go-to for hot pot. I haven’t had the chance to try the phở here, but I find most places are pretty much alike. Good food for a decent price. The staff here are nice as well, they have a lot of people working, so there’s always someone around if you need something.

Been here twice already. Once was a quick lunch during work with a friend when I was working in Mississauga, the other time was en-route to Hamilton to check out Dundas Peak and Webster’s Fall. Both times I really enjoyed my experience here. This place is large, so you don’t feel too tight with other tables and relatively easy to find tables during lunch hours. Staff are super quick and friendly but best of all, the food here are pretty awesome. I ordered the Phở both time and their Phở have great soup base! Beef slices are also very tender. Good beef, good soup base with relatively chewy phở noodle makes a killing combo for any phở noodle soup! I recommend coming to this place if you are in the area either for lunch or dinner! You will never be disappointed!

Good food, healthy choices… very busy restaurant. Went there several times, loooots of items in the menu to choose from. Cooked/prepared fresh and reasonably priced. A nice place to taste something different… most likely we will go there many more times :-)

Seeing Asian people dining in an Asian restaurant is one thing. Seeing a crowd of Asian people lining up for a table, is quite another. Both scenarios mean that the restaurant you’ve chosen was a great decision! I arrived early to my lunch with 5 co-workers, which was a good call on my part, because about 15 minutes later, the place was packed and a line-up had started. It was my first time at Phở Mi 99, the Latimer Road location, right by the Heartland Town Centre in Missisissauga.(It was also«Black Friday» which was probably a contributor to the crowd… Heartland Town Centre is an outlet mall). I had heard mixed reviews about this place, but all of the negative ones were unbelievable to me once I scanned the crowd: people of all shapes, sizes and colours. There were tourist, shoppers and mid-day business park employees(like me). But most notable, were the Asian people. That to me, was a sign of great place of Asian food. I was a fan already and my food hadn’t even arrived yet. I know it’s a Vietnamese place, but the menu’s photo of Pad Thai looked so very delicious to me at that moment. I ordered a plate of Pad Thai with chicken, no peanuts. My co-workers,(most of whom are regulars), ordered their usual: «The 404.»(That is, Number 44 on the menu: Phở with a pork springroll and veggies) There was also a plate of fresh springrolls to share. My Pad Thai had just the right amount of heat and it was generous size. I’m definitely going back. This place did NOT disappoint. It’s clean and the service was friendly and fast. My food was delicious and my friends were too busy eating to speak. We were out of there in 45 minutes, a perfect time to get back to work for your 1pm meeting, or get back to the mega-shopping spree. The prices were very reasonable for the portions you get and the calibre of the food? Outstanding. No wonder my co-workers were regulars. Every Friday. They’ve let me join their Lunch Club.

Phở-Mi 99 serves traditional Vietnamese food. There are a lot of phở and noodle dishes in the menu, which is typical to an average phở place. I ordered a Spring Roll and Pork Vermicelli. It was authenic and fresh. The pork tasted quite good. The spring roll was average. The portion was generous. The services was fast, effective and friendly. The one leg up at Phở Mi 99 is the interior decoration. It is comtemporary and pleasant. Overall 3 stars. Add 0.5 star for the pleasant and clean environment.
