The phở soups that we ordered lacked flavour and left us unsatisfied. The shrimp wrap was mostly filled with noodles. Been to many other phở places. this was probably the worst. The host and wait staff however were fantastic

Nice food, cooked quick. Ordered spring roll, meatballs and shrimp on vermicelli. Under $ 10 makes it well worth it. Place was quite full but no service issues. Vermicelli has little flavor as expected, and the sauce provided sinks to the bottom; not an even flavoring. The meatballs also didn’t taste great but the spring roll and sugarcane shrimp were great.

Your typical Phở restaurant and surprisingly in Oakville. They serve huge portions for a low prices and are generally fairly priced which is a nice change if you compare the prices from Spoon and Fork just up on Trafalgar. The food comes to you within 5 — 10 mins of ordering so you’re in and out extremely fast!

Phở Mi 89 is pretty good, but this was the best location I’ve been to.

Well we came here tonight cause I read the reviews from my fellow Unilocalers and it’s pretty close to home ! So …we’re do I start … Well let me say I don’t know why everyone reviewed this place so high lol… maybe in Oakville there isn’t very many Phở places, hence my oakvillians don’t know a good Phở place from a hole in the wall ‚ Cause I can sure tell you this place is no more then a 3 Star at best ! And I gave it a 2 star cause of our order . So i got a tendon and tripe Phở. decent .good flavor and a order of fried tofu But … My other half got the Chicken Pad Thai and it took them 25 mins to bring it out to her… ok it’s busy I get it but 25 mins after I get my phở. .fine .BUT wait .the worst part is she gets her Pad thai… and something that has never happend to us at any other Phở restaurant in the city… the Chicken in her pad Thai was pink yes .raw .undercooked …totally unbelievable and unacceptable… so trying to get our waiters attention 5 mins later we do… and again there busy… so she takes it back to the kitchen and again we wait .15 mins. finally get it back and then notice there’s only 6 pieces of chicken lol… oh well at least it’s cooked … Oh our deep fried tofu tasted burnt … So anyways… I wanna say to all you Oakvillians if you want good PHO take a lesson from us mississaugans! Come… cross the border and try some real Viet thai cuisine were you can get better quality . Rating this place for me as follows … Ambiance & Décor 7 out 10 Service. 7 out 10 Food. 5 out 10 Price. 8 out 10 Over all… there’s way better places !!! 3 out 10 !!!

They make it fast and serve in large portions. Big bowls, lots of noodles. Skip the small & med if you are hungry and get the large instead. Prices have gone up since opening. Ive been to this location about 9 times this past year. Doesn’t matter how you want the phở, they price they meals mainly on the size of bowl. Prices of the small went from 5.50, 6, now is 6.50. Larges are 8. Plenty of seating, lots of parking spaces. Service is great. Theres lots of staffing, meals arrive usually less than 7 minutes. Gave this a 4 star because they raised the prices without changing anything since day 1. Recommended.

This restaurant is part of the Phở Mi 99 chain despite the ‘89’ in the name. The menu is exactly the same as the others. We’ve been coming to this location since they opened several years ago. The food is consistent with the other Phở Mi 99 restaurants. Service is quick and efficient and staff are friendly. Our one beef about this location is that they serve the hot tea in plastic cups rather than china. Our favourite menu items are the rice dishes with grilled meats and steamed egg and the vermicelli dishes. The phở broth is also quite good.

Had the won ton soup and vermicelli chicken with spring roll. I was pleasantly surprised for an Oakville restaurant! Broth was great. They used the right vermicelli noodles and the fish sauce was aromatic. A good amount of grilled chicken for the dish, though a bit too fatty for my taste. But for 7,50 definitely will return. Service was quick and will become my go to Vietnamese when in oakville.

Food is fresh and authentic. It feels«home made». The menu is extensive with over 100 items to choose from. Prices are very reasonable so trying new items from the menu is an option as risk is low. I usually order the grilled chicken and pork rice plate and substitute the rice with salad. This plate is around $ 7. Less than the price of a fast food item at a hamburger joint and far superior in nutritional value and taste. Mango milkshake around $ 3 is made from scratch and real fruit. I always order it with no sugar added and they’ve always made sure to accommodate my request! I’ve also tried the deep fried whole fish. It was great and the wonton soup — delicious, served at the right temperature and generous portion considering it’s listed under the«snacks» section of the menu. Lots of meet wontons in the soup. Price around $ 6 Service is quick and courteous. For such affordable prices this place is a great bang for your buck. Clean and fresh. No fear of getting food poison or disgusting experiences — as it had being the case at another comparable price range Asian restaurant downtown. All in all I’ve become a regular of this place and keep on coming back every time I’m in town for the past 2 years.

So disappointed, especially since I was looking forward to trying this local restaurant. The food was not at all impressive. We tried the seafood udon, shrimp and squid stir-fry and duck congee. The sauce on both seafood dishes was very coagulated and bland. Whatever they used to thicken the sauce gave me an upset stomach. The congee was OKish — but seriously, it’s rice, broth and a few pieces of green onion and duck — so, pretty hard to screw that up. Then there’s the service — it was practically non-existent. There were only 2 people covering the entire dining room — taking orders, serving, bussing tables, and cashier duties. Forget about water refills. And halfway through our meal, one of these guys wheeled out the mop and pail and left it in the corner of the dining room!!! I won’t be returning.

Been coming here very frequently since it’s close to my work. Service is mediocre, obviously family run. Took awhile for them to have a small conversation with me. However, I always get my food within 5 minutes or less. Food is not spectacular, but is basic viet food. Overall, it’s not memorable. Good as a casual backup lunch option.

Excellent phở, large menu, affordable prices, and good service whenever I’ve come. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Make sure to try the deep fried spring rolls.

Standard phở fare. Don’t expect to be full when you leave. Rice dish with beef was ok, beef very thing cut and spread out which makes it look like more. Standard phở offering. Was clean and busy, lots of seating but it’s constant stream of customers in and out. I would return for simple phở.

These are just some of the few things i hate about this place: Food is meh The servers are not friendly they just throw ur plate in front of u and disappear till u have to pay them They are very cheap with the ingredients The server is mopping the floor and dusting up while ur eating next to ur face I mean come on for gods sake ppl are still eating do ur mopping later! The only thing they good at is when its time to pay the bill! All smiles and sh*t

2.5÷5(rounded up for service) Good, but not great phở. Stock broth was a bit bland and the beef was way too fatty. Unfortunate as there’s no other real phở options in Oakville.

Headline: Good phở for Oakville, bad phở for anywhere east of Oakville(i.e. Mississauga, Toronto, Richmond Hill, etc.) Likes: It’s clean and the only decent phở place in Oakville. The vermicelli/spring rolls/meat combos are okay. Dislikes: For your standard phở, it’s about $ 1 more expensive than most places and the phở is full of MSG. Also, their beef stew phở is so fatty that it’s barely edible, yet my mom likes it. I can’t stand fatty meat. Also ordered pad thai once and it was so bad. There was no taste to it, didn’t taste fresh, and felt like a little kid experimenting on how to cook. Verdict: Your 2nd last alternative to Mcdonald’s or if you really crave a phở fix. Nothing special.

A most excellent Phở Restaurant. I usually get the 405(grilled pork with vermicelli, spring rolls, and shrimp on a sugar cane.) Totally scrumptious. The phở is also yummy, especially during winter. It really warms you up. My favorite phở is the chicken phở with beefballs. Try asking for sate(sa — tay) sauce from the waiter. Its this dark blend of hot sauce that they don’t serve unless you specifically ask for it. Stays Real tasty. It tastes good with everything i have tried there, including their chicken and pork on rice dishes. MHMHMHMHHMHMMM! The service is prompt, and the younger dude(don’t know his name) recognizes me cause i’m a regular. So i get good service, which is awesome! Also… UNLIMITEDNAPKINSATYOUR T ABLEFROM A DISPENSER!

Love this place. Seems to be the one and only Vietnamese place in Oakville, but it is legit. Front end staff are young guys pointing you to an open table. Food is delivered quickly. Décor is non-descript, but one really fat buddha in the corner. The quintessential Phở and vermicelli bowls are outstanding. Get here early(11 a.m.) as that is when the soups are freshest. Portions are huge and prices not so much. Avg. bill for two people is less than $ 20.
