Pho Hong Vietnamese Noodle Soup

Delicious food. Wonderful service. Great prices. Soup has nice flavour. I wasn’t a fan of the meatballs. The chicken was very good. We will return.

Came here for dinner, seems like a quiet spot. Not very fancy, The phở was good. Good and quick service, got our food super quick, but possibly because there wasn’t a lot of people here at the same time. A bit chilly in the restaurant tho. Free wifi In Here as well, definitely a plus.
The staff are super nice. One of the waiters even took a few minutes to reach my friend how to use chop sticks.

Phở here is delicious, fast service, clean, quiet, basic and tacky décor but that doesn’t bother me.
Not ideal for fancy date or such, but good food.
Owner was chatting with his friends constantly at the table next to mine, there was no music being played.
Clean utensils.

Inside looks like it use to be an Italian or Greek restaurant. Good amount of seats and a clean look overall.
Got the vermicelli with with grilled pork and a single spring roll for $ 9.99 and a iced coffee with condensed milk for $ 3.90
There was a good amount of meat. The noodles were done right. Overall, the meal was very light and delicious. The ice coffee came in a little coffee filter device over the cup. Not sure why they don’t just prepare the whole thing in the back. So once the coffee finish filter through I had to pour it into the cup with the high possibility of spillage. The ice coffee did taste really good and was really refreshing on a hot summer day.
3.5 stars

Here for lunch and I have to admit, 1^st time I’ve seen a Vietnamese restaurant run by a Korean (no racist intent). We were seated quickly but retrieval of order was slow, owner seemed to be the only waiter. Décor gives off the impression of a Mexican/​Middle Eastern with Europe mix. Prices are higher than what I’m used to seeing (ex. Rice platters and vermicelli bowls are minimum $ 9.99!) Decided on XL Phở/​spring rolls to share between fiancé and I (phở was a tad better on price) Ton of noodles, broth is different and not greasy, so this is a positive point. I would suggest more basils and maybe an option of boiled sprouts for the Chinese community (I’m a fan of raw so it doesn’t bother me) Spring rolls were mediocre and quite greasy. Overall, I say meal was good but nothing to brag about and I still prefer Phở in the West ;)

Usually, before I try out a new place, I’d consult Unilocal first. The one with the most favour able reviews, I try. But with my tummy ruling over my brain, I did it the other way around. I was in this plaza on Times and saw this Vietnamese restaurant, and decided to try it out. I ordered the beef stew noodles with carrot chunks and as I waited for my order to arrive, i read the Unilocal reviews. Too late for me to leave :) In all fairness, the service was prompt, (I was the only one there). The noodle soup was just ok, the beef chunks are fewer compared to other places I’ve tried, and the broth was a bit watered down and found it bland, it lacked flavour and spice. I finished what I ordered, that’s how hungry I was. I would only consider coming back here if there’s no other choice. So I guess that would be — never.

To be honest I’m not a noodle person. My fiancé loves all types of noodles — even at seafood buffet, he would rather stand in line for a bowl of phở, ramen, or stir fry noodle. So when it came to meeting up with ex co-​worker for a quick lunch date, I let him have his pick of phở since I was saving my belly for ayce Brazilian steak later that night.
This place was run by 2 older gentlemen — a bit overwhelmed with just ¼ of the restaurant filled but tried their best to serve us throughout. We were given a sheet to submit where we checked off our order. My fiancé and his friend both went with a bowl of phở (#2 and #11). I went with their seafood soup. The food came out relatively fast — each bowl of phở came with a side of bean sprouts, mint, and lime. My fiancé seemed to enjoy his phở. My seafood soup was a bit disappointing however. There were 4 tiny pieces of shrimp, 3 cut up in halves fish balls, and 3 pieces of imitation crab sticks — for 9 dollars, it come in the same size bowl as the phở but really there wasn’t much to eat at all.
Aside from the fact that we had to wait a bit between getting their attention to place our order and also getting our check, the service was friendly. Food was just okay and wasn’t particularly cheap. Will probably look elsewhere for our next phở fix in GTA.

Good value. Food is fresh and good quality. Fast and friendly service. Don’t come for the ambiance or décor.

Really bad coconut milk shake…

I work near this restaurant and just discovered it. I will make it a habit and probably drag all my colleagues with me to lunch!
Menu is a good size, it’s not overwhelming but lots of selection. I suggest #32, vermicelli with pork and spring roll. Lots of crispy veggies, an enormous bowl, spices on the pork were exactly what I’m worth it.
People working were great too. The waitress was always busy serving or cleaning, but very pleasant. Peter, the man who was working when I had lunch, was also very nice. He manned the checkout and was very friendly.
Try it out! It’s in the Time Square plaza (I think, I came in the back) so you have to search for parking, but it is worth it. I’m hungry now just thinking about it…

A regular Vietnamese Phở with no bells or whistles. Average food quality.

Note to self: if a place is almost empty during dinner time, trust your gut and stay away.
The phở places i’ve been in always had only a couple of tables free left when I got there, so when I saw this place almost empty I immediately wanted to turn back. Unfortunately, I was overruled by the group which meant I got to try another one of those places that I visit once vowing never to return.
The phở at best was average. Didn’t come with basil which is what I get everywhere else. I should not have to ask for it. Felt like the beef broth was diluted with a lot of water and thus losing a lot of flavour. The spring roll was god awful. One of the worst I’ve had in the GTA (this includes Vietnamese fast food kiosks you can find in malls). It was dry, not properly wrapped, not enough filling, basically the only thing proper about it was that it was deep fried and not raw.
On the plus side, the small bowl was pretty large but this is usually the case in any phở spot. Prices are average too, almost $ 7 for a small bowl. Come to think of it, that seems a bit pricier.
