They have Malaysian Char Kuey Teow that doesn't look & taste like Malaysian Char Kuey Teow (or Char Hor Fun or Fried Noodle )

Sharon Lam

Try laksa !! It's a mild coconut soup base with a touch of spice. There's seafood and beef laksa , but try seafood for the more traditional taste :)

Dan Colquhoun

The best beam srouts in town .

Avoid lunch hour. Spicy Black Pepper Tofu , Pad Thai , Goat in Yellow Curry are all good. If you want coffee , drive to the location on Hwy 24 for a proper Vietnamese coffee press.

Michelle Kauntz

The Tom Yum and Thai Coconut Soups are amazing.

Caelyn McAulay

Decent Pho . Be warned the small is enough for a meal.

Had good service here, get the beef pho and spring rolls

Steve K

Tamarind chicken - like sweet and sour only super good!

Derek Alldritt

Vermicelli bowl can't do you wrong. Nor the coconut soup . Very good.

Ivan

Hasn't changed since university days. 3 waitresses behind the counter and all the tables in the dining area aren't cleared off. This is why you are asked to wait to be seated.

Michael S.

I love the new teas with grass jelly .

Michael

Great pho and noodle soups !

Dan Colquhoun

Take-out only after 10:30PM on Saturday. Show up then or later and be turned away.

Gopinath Prasanna

Food portion served is a lot. Two people can eat one bowl of noodles .

Love the food, usually pretty quick assuming you don't have to wait. Bad service though.

Helen Phan

some servers are nice so are rude, so take your chances; the foods okay too.

JayR Declaro

jackfruit shake is a must-have!

Sarah C

The food here is always awesome. The service, however, is not so much...

Rob Wienburg

New interior, very slick !

Sarah C

Food is always great here. The service... not so good...

Dan Colquhoun

Order the 474. By name. Loudly .

William W

Service is poor. Did not get all of our order. 30 min. after the first dish arrives we cancel the rest of order. They then charge us for food we did not get. Not recommended.

Greg

Love the wontons ... Pad That time

Jamie MacDougall

If you want great food, this is the place. If you want great service, or actually any service, this is not the place. Very disappointed.

Rebecca Lam

Used to have decent customer service, but as if lately not so much. Food comes out lukewarm, and wait staff aren't very attentive.

George Xu

Get #343. It tastes like rainbows.

Benoit St-Pierre

Pad Thai with Chicken or your choice of Pho

Armando M Murga

# 102 is pretty good. The XL is gigantic!

Josh Robinson

If your looking for soup , get the 101

Justin Ahn

THIS IS WHERE FRIENDSHIPS DIE

Gordon Zeilstra

Food is great, phone manners not so much.

Linda Huynh

What service?

Damien Galt

Good food, lousy service. Received my appetizer towards the end of my main. Asking customers to write their own orders for table service? It's not cute or fun. It's lazy.

Mark Matta

Not worth the time spent there.
