Placed a big order with only a day's notice for a 90 person film cast/crew meal. Not only was the food delicious, the owner was incredibly helpful! He helped me plan out what items would be the most crowd pleasing and what would fill up the hungriest of transport crew! I highly recommend this place!!!
Good parking in back and a back door. The broth has great flavour and the staff are very friendly!
Love Thai's - their Bun Bo Hue is my favourite in town.
One note - despite zomato's listing, this restaurant does not make Thai food - it's entirely Vietnamese. Thai is the first name of the original owner!
Thai’s Saigon Bistro has been one of my staple Vietnamese restaurants for more than 5 years now, ever since they opened! It has been over 5 years since my last post, so I figured that warranted a revisit. I’ve noticed that the portion sizes have gotten smaller since.
Portion pretty decent. Decent amount of meat. Everything cooked pretty well. Sandwich is a house meatball which is tasty.
I agree with the 4+ rating.
Great Vietnamese restaurant, the name is misleading. I love their pho, great broth, I order extra beef, its slightly on the scant side although compared to other Vietnamese restaurants it is very well priced, the spring rolls are probably the best anywhere. The service is very friendly. The restaurant is clean and pleasant
We (hubby, daughter and I) absolutely love this place. I usually get the rare beef with beef balls and it's awesome! I've also tried their pork chop, lemongrass chicken, and pork patty. I highly recommend this place. The service is amazing, and I think it may be the owner, but he always has a big smile when we walk in. The prices are great too.
We've tried the above but also my daughter loves the chicken with noodle soup.
Anytime we want Pho, this is our 1st choice.
Best service I've had at a pho restaurant.
The prices here are very competitive, with the large pho coming in around $8.50 (about a buck cheaper than other places). The salad rolls are average price, BUT they offer a shredded pork salad roll (!)
The restaurant is VERY clean, fresh, with crisp white walls, clean tables, and very comfortable seats. Had a few flatscreens on the wall with NBA playing.
The servers here speak excellent English, and they ran to refill my water. Even though we were here right at last call, they took our table and told us to take our time while eating.
Highly recommended and I will return.
So yummy!! I love having so many great Vietnamese restaurants around me but not all are as great and flavourful as this one!! Always go back for more when I'm craving some pho😊
I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. The Vietnamese Crepes and Pho Tai Nam are my two favourites. The pho broth is rich and slow cooked. We have tried several other restaurants for pho and none come close.
Amazing service as well in the family owned and run restaurant. Thank you, John, for consistently incredible comfort food. It's why we keep coming back!
Ordered the Lemon Grass Banh Mi, the chicken had great flavor and it was grilled, the bun had the right amount of crunchiness and softness. The deep fried spring roll was dripping a bit too much oil for me, it still tasted good.
Basic comfort food can help carry you through a wet rainy spring in Vancouver. Thai’s Saigon Bistro in Burnaby Heights has been serving reliably good Vietnamese food for a few years now. (Don’t be misled by the name, they serve Vietnamese, not Thai food.) We’ve been with them from the beginning and are happy to see the tables fill up quickly. They have a loyal following in the neighbourhood.If you’re from this area, you know this space used to be the old Gilmore Restaurant – a casual diner. It has now been renovated into a modernized establishment with Corian surface tables, stone tiled floors and framed photos of Vietnam.
We usually order the P1 pho and spring rolls. We come here often and it looks like the owners are retiring next month. The husband and wife team really care about keeping the prices as low as they can for their customers without compromising the quality of their food.
They're truly a hardworking family and I wish them the best in their retirement. My boys and I will miss coming here when they're gone. So come and eat here while they're still here!
I liked it overall. Friendly service, comfortable space. My only point of criticism is the beef to noodle ratio. I didn't exactly measure by weight so it's very subjective, but I felt the ratio was a bit short. I'd still give them another shot.
iced coffee. tastes amazing like it did 5 years ago. the pho broth was so good and you can tell that they don't skimp on quality.

Simple delicious pho soup... I don’t think they use msg... menu is a QR scan (wasn’t 100% sure, I didn’t ask either). The spring rolls were perfect, decent amount of space and social distancing for COVID-19. The place is clean... including the washroom! Nice friendly service as well. I’d come back if I lived nearby
This place is the best! Springs rolls, soup, subs, and sliced grilled pork anything are amazing! Everything taste super fresh. My favourite Vietnamese spot hands down!
Beef pho was terrific. Spring rolls were nice and crispy. Iced coffee with condensed milk was delicious. Had a bite of my son's banh mi and the bread was so fresh and crunchy on the outside...yummy! Prices are very reasonable. Service was great and staff was very friendly!
