Fast, cheap, delicious. Huge menu that pretty much covers every possible variation you can think of. If you think what your looking at is awesome, but would amazing if it had "x" look one dish lower.
Brian HurleyNovember 24, 2013You HAVE to have the fried pork Spring Rolls. Dee-lish! The Pho, regardless which one you have, makes yer belly full, but yer empty but satisfied within an hour. Best I'm TO so far.
Ashleigh GardnerJanuary 9, 2016Great pho. If you want vegetarian, make sure to ask for the vegetarian broth. Even the tofu pho comes with beef broth by default.
NathanMarch 3, 2016Even better than Pho Tien Thanh. Write your order down (the Pho Dac Biet obviously) and enjoy the best bowl of pho around.
James KachanApril 14, 2017The soups are the best, I get the tofu noodle and veg one. I also do the fresh rolls a lot as an appraiser.
The Hoan Kiem turtle is a controversial taxon of turtle from Southeast Asia, with one known living specimen in Vietnam, affectionately known as Cụ Rùa, meaning "great grandfather" in Vietnamese.- Khanh LyMarch 20, 2016The raw beef pho is an absolute must try, flavourful broth nearly as good as how my mum would cook it.
Francesca BruniAugust 8, 2014#80 or if your feeling spicy #90. Add some hoisin and Saracha and you'll enjoy the best lunch ever.
CITY GRITAugust 1, 2014We love Pho. We also love the Singapore noodles with Shrimp, and the Vietnamese Spring Rolls!
Henry SevenMarch 20, 2015Been coming here since I was born! Try the grilled pork with shrimp on rice, so good.
pluckerJune 16, 2012"Large" bowls are actually a small w/ tons of soup. Go for an XL, you can finish it, TRUST. Pho dac biet not memorable. Soup wasn't beefy enough. Trust me, I'm Asian, lol. 95% of the customers aren't.
The TaminatorDecember 21, 2015People say that this is one of the best Pho in town - it's not. It's expensive, cheap on meat, salty and a lot of MSG! Not worth returning. Try the other place on Ossington instead - Pho Tien Thanh- Ian LeungMarch 10, 2012lighter cleaner broth works in its favor, with very fresh greens. Noodles have a great consistency. Earned reputation for best pho in the city.
- Ian LeungAugust 15, 2015Found sharp plastic in my soup once. Owner yelled at me and accused me of planting it. Yes, the pho is good but don't expect to be treated with respect. See you at Tien Thanh.
the BREL teamFebruary 13, 2012T.O.'s best pho! When one of Toronto's best celebrity chefs--and an Asian chef at that--calls a place one of his favourites, that's something.
Dan BrownAugust 8, 20141st or 2nd best pho in Toronto, depending on who you ask. Either way, good food and low prices.
FiorellaNovember 26, 2011Really good bbq pork vermicelli, spring rolls could use a little less oil, and the pho was by far the best I've had so far.
Spring rolls are amazing. Also try the iced coffee with condensed milk
Doug LMarch 22, 2014Portion are small, XL large is Large w/ a lot of soup. Soup was swimming with green onions (overpowered) , not much beef flavor (kind of bland). Ordered #14 but we didn't get any tendon.- The best pho in TO. They also make a pretty good salad roll, I usually get the shrimp, with a great peanut sauce.
If you like spice, try number 174: satay spicy beef & vegetable pho! My fave!
Prince JasJune 7, 2012The Chef's special #175 spicy chicken Pho and the veggie tofo Pho are great!!!!
If the place is close to full, you can meet new people when the staff seat them at your table. ;)
Judes CMay 9, 2010Greatest service, makes you want to come back again & again. Every dish is fantastic but do leave room for an avocado or mango shake. Party in your mouth!
Robin GoodfellowDecember 2, 2011Actually, the pho is ok. But the pad Thai is the best in the city. Try it!
Google maps say this place is only open until 7pm on a weekday, but it's actually open until 9:45.
Really don't think this place has pho that's good enough to warrant the glares and grumpy attitude. Go down the street to Pho Tien Thahn instead. Superior pho broth and friendlier service.
JaimeAugust 26, 2010How many bowls of noodles have been served here? How many stomachs warmed? Around us the sounds of Vietnamese, always in the same tone, never betraying. Whole lives told in a beef broth. Six dollars.
Currently obsesses with #117 - the herbed grilled beef rolls. Delish!
Get the Vietnamese pancake and your mouth will love you long time.
