One of the many great little restaurants in Marda Loop. I had the pork dumplings as an appetizer which were delicious; crispy and fresh. Also had the House Special rice vermicelli which has pork, chicken, beef, shrimp and spring rolls! Big portion size and great taste so excellent value. Service is fast and friendly and all around a great experience.
One of my absolute favourite vietnamese restaurants in the city. Their peanut sate pho is amazing and spicy beef was fantastic. Definitely recommend
Checked out Nho Saigon last week because we heard they have the best sate beef pho. It was pretty good but not the best I've had. The broth was a bit thick for my liking. I'd probably still go again because it's close to my house. The service was super fast, almost too fast. I don't know if any of you have noticed this at certain Asian restaurants but I find that sometimes they're trying so hard to be quick and efficient that they look like they're about to have a complete meltdown and start screaming and then you're looking around like what's the hurry?? All the tables in the tiny restaurant were full but there were no people waiting to be seated so certainly no need to rush and as a result our server ended up spilling some soup on my friend's leg. I won't hold that against them though, they were nice people and I'm sure the rushing is just their idea of giving their customers the best service possible.
Do not pass up a chance to try the deep-fried tofu!! It sounds really boring on the menu, but it's a generous amount of hot, crispy cubes of fried tofu in the most incredible spicy lemongrass sauce. My mom and I have been coming here since they opened(almost 10 years) just for the fried tofu and that flavourful lemongrass sauce. Don't get me wrong-- their other food is good, but the tofu is on another level!! I've never had anything else like it.
Really liked the stir fried chicken curry on vermicelli :) and huge portion for only $8.50. We had great service and tons of candies given to us by man at the front :) friends had various types of pho and liked it. Close to MRU which was where we were headed. Will likely be back!
I can't wait to eat some of these amazing dishes in here, especially number #20 the house special soup with SATE. To be quite honest, it is the best food I ever have, I really love the house special soup with deep fried wonton, veggie,...and a little bit spicy. Although the portions is not too big, the atmosphere is very authentic. It is my favorite place on the weekend. I strongly recommend you try these food in here.
Wanted to try something new while we were in maraloop. So we went and tried it. The service was great. The pork dumbing were very tasty. And tried the number 33 was very happy with food and great service .
This place has the best chicken satay soup...the key is to add veg to the soup. I've honestly never tried anything else other than the deep fried wontons
I have been eating here regularly for 6 years and have never had a bad meal. I've brought countless people here who have always enjoyed it and when I make lunch plans this is where they want to go. My Fiance and I will travel across the city to come here when who want Pho. My favourite is #17 the chicken peanut sate - I can't get enough of it!! Also the chicken curry is amazing and their coconut rice is mmmmmmm
I will always come back.
Great for 2 people.. I thought it was really inexpensive. We were a party of 2, the total cost was still under $30.00. I love the Shrimp Spring Rolls. You get 3 rolls. This was almost a meal in itself. I had the Grilled Chicken with noodles. AAA. Nice area in Marda Loop.
Pho-bulous. I'm actually a HUGE fan of this place and the family that runs it. I assume it is family run as it is ALWAYS the same people and they are so damn friendly. If you don't take 3 candies when you leave....seriously they will be sad.
The vermicelli dishes are SO GOOD and enormous portions. Also have an addiction to the dumplings.
Cheap and delicious.
Only complaint is they aren't open on Sundays (?!) when I'm hungover and REALLY need them.
They are so fast when you call in a pick up order it is insane, and they're so helpful when your description is "uh the pork shrimp noodle thing" until you have the menu number memorized AND programmed in your phone. AND YOU WILL. TRUST ME.
I have only ever eaten two things on the menu and the reason is because I love them both so much. I worked nearby and we would order take-out all the time. The girls in the office were obsessed with #19, sometimes eating it more than once in a week. As a vegetarian, their spring rolls are fantastic and I really love their curry tofu & veggies over rice. I almost always get almost two full meals out of it and the heat level is great. The service is good and they're super fast. I didn't love dining in as much, it doesn't seem the cleanest and it gets really cold against all the windows in the winter, but we ordered take-out almost once a week!
#16 chicken soup is additive! So good! I normally get take out. The food is ready in 10 min and so yummy. I order from here a few time a month. I just wish they delivered! One of my favourite takeout restaurants in Calgary.
Number 19 cannot be beat!
Awesome!. This place is awesome, fast, fresh and great value! Go there now for dine-in or take-out!! Sate beef soup is a favorite but everything is delicious.
Our Place. We love this place! Have been going here for a while due to working in the area, and now that we live close by we come almost once a month. Always friendly service, and the food is delicious. Haven't had a sate pho quite like the one there, yummmmy!
Delicious!. Ive been to my fair share of vietnamese joints and this one is still my favorite! Its not as greasy and over seasoned like other places. My favorite dish is the chicken vermicelli and a mango milkshake. Yum!
Peanut satay w beef and noodles is great. Not too salty, good texture and taste. No MSG in their Pho either which is rare!
One of my fav rest. Their satay soup is just so good. For the weather right now it is simply irresistible!
Friendly, relaxed environment. The owners and staff at this place make me feel so welcome. It has a very homey feel, and after or before rushes it is perfect to just relax, eat some food, and not feel rushed or overwhelmed.
It may not be the best Vietnamese in Calgary, but the service, friendly staff, and incredibly good prices make this a standby place to be comforted by hot broth and good atmosphere.
Bubble tea is best around. Very friendly service and delicious food every time.
Best Vietnamese ever.. Spicy Peanut Beef/Chicken soups are incredible. Say no more.
Review. Very nice place to meet up with your fellows and family members!
Frankly, the foods are great .
Great place for lunch on the cheap!. This place isn't fancy, but the food has always been excellent and the prices are fair. This has become one my regular lunch spots, but it's great for take out as well.
Cheap & cheerful vietnamese. Great service eat in & take out. Vermicelli is great. I prefer the pho at pho hai but still great all round.
Love it. This is my favorite little, local vietnamese spot. The staff know me and are friendly, and the food is consistent. The restaurant isn't fancy, but I go there for the food and still have a great experience anyway. Their sate chicken peanut soup is amazing. My boyfriend craves it on the regular and we usually give in and go get some.
Well done!. I have been a customer for this restaurant for almost 2 years. The store always busy and very energetic. They know how to take care of the customers, once you drop a pair of chopstick, within a second, a new pair of chopsticks are available for you; or once you spill something on the table, someone will definitely be there and willingly clean your table. Some of my friends who work in Health Services and Foothills hospital said that this place is the one that they would trust the most, and so we always have dinner here, or sometime order for take-out. After all, definitely gonna comeback tmr to taste sate soup.
Good food and fast service. Standard Vietnamese fare. My only comment is that the restaurant itself could use some cleaning and tlc.
Our go-to for Vietnamese! I am in love with the rare beef satay pho, can't bring myself to order anything else. Yummmm
Best Rare Beef Sate Pho!!. My favorite ever. Tastiest and best broth. I'm surprised at these other reviews. Try it yourself. :)
Love it!. Consistently fast with reasonable price.
This is a gem!. I don't know what had happened for other users of those below comments, but they gave me the best soup in town. Especially Sate Soup, and also veggie spring rolls.
One of my favourites. I have been eating at Nho Saigon frequently, since they opened, about 5 years ago. Prices are very reasonable; and food is almost always excellent. Saté soups are fantastic; curries are well-spiced; jicama rolls are also very nice.
Very good food especially for the price. Order curry chicken and is perfect amount of spice. Order takeout and they are quick at making it.
Always a safe bet for a bite. This a great stand by for a last minute meal or some take out. The food and the service is always good. My son says they make the best bubble tea he has ever had. I agree. The staff is extremely friendly and gracious even when you are just waiting for some take out. And don't forget to take some candy before you leave. The iced coffee hard candy is delicious!
Food is consistently delicious and the service is speedy. Always a good choice!
OMG best Pho Ga Sate ever! I've had this soup at at least other 5 Vietnamese restaurants and they all pale in comparison, really hot and spicy! My bf likes their green curry better than anyone else's. Be warned, if you try it you'll be ruined for other soups!
Quick Bite. This is a great little restaurant for a quick bite. Good, consistent food at a reasonable price. Not fancy.
Fast and efficient. The food here is average. The noodle bowls are pretty good. If you want to be in and out in under half an hour in marda loop, this place fits the bill.
This is my new favourite pho place in Calgary! The food is amazing, and very cozy atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and attentive. I highly recommend it!
It's about time I review this spot, as it appears that this has been my go-to spot lately. The sate pho is fantastic, the various vermicelli dishes are tasty, and the spring rolls are lovely. Whether it's to take-out or stay, you shouldn't be disappointed with this little gem.
Nho Saigon !. This is the only Vietnamese restaurant I can eat since I have an MSG allergy. I know the food might tastes a little bit different than the other stores. It just simply because this Vietnamese store doesn't contain any MSG in their food. Their food is so fresh and healthy which makes me feel safe when I'm eating here. I love this place !
Such a nice place to go with a group of people!. Good services! Even it's a small place but It's very clean and a firendly. I love their salad rolls, the deep fried worton and especially the beef sate noodle soup. At the first moment it came to my mouth, it was so spicy that I though I could not stand it anymore and be ready to change to another food. However, when I tried their milkshake, the sweetness helped the taste of the soup at that moment was so awsome. I get used to it now. I pretty sure that I can eat 2 bowls of the sate soup all in one time.
I love this place
Good cheep food in marda loop
Decent take out. Had the vermicelli with shrimp, and it was pretty decent. Nothing fantastic, just good basic bun.
If you're a fan of sate soup, you have to try this place. It's not like the usual oily sate that you get at most places, it's full of peanut goodness! Bring tissues to blow your nose a few times...it's spicy!
Mmm... The food is amazing! I love the soup an the sandwiches!
