Cheap eats done right. Broth is quite good (especially given the price) & spring rolls are thin, but meaty! Large menu & very friendly service. (4/5)

I have had the pleasure of frequenting this restaurant in the last 4 years.  The food is always delicious and appealing and the prices are extremely reasonable, especially for the quality of the food.  The owner treats us like royalty every time we go and I have recommended this restaurant to several people.  I have tried many a Vietnamese restaurant in Calgary, and Mekong is by far, the best I've had, bar none.

We've only been to this restaurant recently. The pho is standard but we're completely sold on the spring rolls and friendly service/ atmosphere. The restaurant is also very clean.

You've gotta try it. Great food, fantastic prices (GST included). It's one of those places that you would return once you've tried it. It has been around "forever". It's a hidden gem. A lot of repeat customers. I'm Viet and I know enough to highly recommend this humble, little restaurant. One of our many favorite dishes consist of lime flavoured, cubed beef over lettuce & rice (name of this dish sounds like bo look luck).
Closed Sundays.

This is a fabulous restaurant. If you haven't tried Vietnamese food or if you like it but want to try something different this is THE place to go.

My Fav Vietnamese place. Go here once a week. Cheap and yummy. Only issue is they need to improve and perfect their sate broth. Other than that everything I have had is great and they have wicked prices :)

We are regulars here and love it. Fresh, simple vietnamese fast and at very reasonable prices. Love bun bowl #47, and the beef sate soup. Beef lalot leaves are good too, as is the coffee. Highly recommend.

Amazing food and service. Wish they weren't so busy sometimes and wish they were open late. Need more tables.

Pho Sate Beef. The inside is very well kept. Pretty clean and quite busy when I stopped in.

I ordered the sate beef which was decent but the broth was spiced up with chili oil. I prefer the sate broths that have the flavor cooked in rather than spiced up after the fact. If you don't prefer one way or the other than this won't be a deal breaker.

Prices here are very reasonable, large pho goes for $7.

Went in to order take out, food was delicious & reheated well. Duck and bamboo soup had nice big pieces of duck - best version of this dish I’ve had in Calgary so far. Portions were generous and prices were reasonable. Staff were friendly and kitchen was quick to put our order together. Would order from here again! Only thing is to make sure you know how to get into the plaza, it’s easy to overshoot the driveway, and hard to turn around and get back to it.

Mekong is the best Vietnamese food in the province. Nothing else compares! The food is amazing! The owner always remembers your order no matter how long it’s has been. He is always happy to serve you and genuinely asks how you are. Best place out there! 10/10.

Unassuming hole in the wall but a hidden gem. Great food with a lot of delicious authentic dishes. It’s no wonder this place is rated so highly. Definitely worth a visit, especially for some of the more unique viet dishes you normally don’t see on viet restaurant menus. Staff are also very nice

Drove halfway across the city to eat here and it was well worth it. Service was great and the amount you pay and the amount and quality of food you get is unmatched! Highly recommend their Vietnamese crepe 👌🏻 Support this local gem!

Mekong is hands down my favourite place in the city for authentic Vietnamese food. The owners of this place are clearly passionate about what they do, and I have never had a bad experience here, making it worth the long drive across the city every time. The restaurant interior isn’t very large, and the staff is very small, so it’s understandable that wait times can be a little longer than what’s typical, but I promise you that in exchange for the wait, you get delicious food everytime. I would highly recommend their beef and chicken pho, as well as my personal favourite, the special banh mi.

Clean place, great service, very hospitable environment here. While the food isn't going to blow you away, it's still very good, and you're going to find yourself coming back here more than once. Overall, very good for some casual dining, one of the best pho spots in Calgary!
