Went for a night out with my daughters 10 & 12, the staff was friendly, helpful and the food was delicious. My 10 year old thought it was cozy, I would call it comfortable and clean.
Second time over here, delicious food and an amazing intimate atmosphere!
Great food, friendly service, been going to the BVR for many many years and will continue.
Everyone we bring with us loves it and they too, keep going back

This is a favourite for our family and never disappoints. Great food, great variety and welcoming service. The dining room is spacious and decorated with local art, and is usually busy. For many years, it has been requested by the kids (now 13 and 15) and is a treat for all. Many people think of Pho when they think of Vietnamese food and to be honest, that's never been our go-to dish so I can't comment on their version of it. But I can say that everything I've tried has been good. Our comfort food is the 402b - under the Steamed Vermicelli section. Delicious fresh herbs, carrots, cucumber, bean sprouts and lettuce, topped with vermicelli, crisp spring rolls and your choice of meat (I'm a fan of the lemongrass pork, but chicken is often a second favourite pick with the family.) Served with their nuoc cham fish sauce, it's so delicious, and filling. We often start with their hot and sour soup to share, or their summer rolls (shrimp, vegetables and vermicelli in rice paper with peanut sauce). When looking for a change, we've tried a variety of their other dishes with various sauces and vegetables. Favorites include their sizzling dishes - a little pricier but large helpings and so tasty! And I really like their #418 Stir Fried Vermicelli with curry. It is loaded with chicken, shrimp, pork and eggs much like Chinese Singapore Noodles but with a different flavour given the vietnamese roots. Always service with a smile. I've never left hungry or disappointed. Yum.
Excellent Service. Went to Barrhaven Vietnamese for a family dinner last week. We were greeted with a friendly smile right away. Unlike some other reviews, I did not find the wait time for food to be long. I had the shrimp and beef wrap and roll and was happy with the portion. I even had some leftover. I thought it was good, about the same as i've had at other places. The employees checked on us frequently and were VERY friendly and personable. 5 stars for service!
Good Prices, Good Food, Good Service. Typical asian atmosphere so nothing special there. Beer selection is your typical crappy selection.
BUT that is not why you go to asian restaurants. The food is good and service is great. Also the prices are manageable. I'll be back,
Best in Barrhaven!. I love this restaurant! My favorite in Barrhaven. I visit at least 3-4 times a month, with friends and during each visit we try a new dish....we have never been disappointed.....loved them all....great flavor and great portions. A meal starting with soup, two dishes plus rice and tea for around $30...can't be beat...and we have good appetites! The owners are very friendly and always greets us with smiles.
Inexpensive and great Vietnamese fare. I love this place...it is in my neighbourhood, and being a family run restaurant, they treat customers like family. The menu showcases traditional Vietnamese fare at prices that cannot be matched downtown. The shrimp rice rolls are obvious favourites as they are always in high demand, and why not? The rolls are made with fresh and cool rice wraps, stuffed with large shrimps and coriander, and accompanied by a hearty peanut sauce which I usually spice up with the provided chili sauce condiment on the table. The pho are wonderfully satisfying noodles and broth, choice of brisket, chicken, satay beef and even a variety of seafood, accompanied with a plate of fresh bean sprouts and basil herbs to fragrant the broth. A real popular hit with the local crowd, and the service is always friendly and efficient.
Great food-Each time I have tried Barrhaven Vietnamese I have greatly enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere. The lunch specials are very filling and a great price. The pho is tasty and stays hot. Overall love the restaurant
Better than average. We've gone several times over the past few years.
Overall, the good quality/portion has been good to very good. The price was comparable to other Vietnamese restaurants.
There are many comments on this site about service. I recall having similar slow experiences, however, we had no issues on our most recent visit during the dinner rush (aside from getting the bill).
We will definitely return.
8/10
Fast and yummy. I've only just started going to this restaurant because my daughter likes the pho ba. I usually get spring rolls and the wrap your own rice wrap dishes. Very filling for 14.95! I recommend this place to anyone who likes big portions of soup and you can get your food as spicy as you like.
Always good. Food is always delicious and fresh; love their soup and salad rolls. Lower your expectations of service and you'll always be happy. Take out is fantastic.
The food overall was good. The meat is a bit chewy. The pad thai tasted good but it tasted differently to how pad thai is supposed to taste like, but it still good. The server was really nice and helped me with packing remaining food to take home. Will come back again to try other dishes.
Would give this place 6 stars if I could. Excellent flavours and hefty portions. I used to love to dine in before the pandemic, but I am equally satisfied with their takeout. The food is always hot and fresh. This place is our go-to for meals on busy days, and we are always amazed by the amount of leftovers we get!
The perfect meal when recovering from the flu. Ordered here because our normal place was closed. I do wish they gave hot sauce and chopsticks with my order (I asked for them when ordering). Still a good place though and I like that they use thin rice noodles in their pho.
I've been coming here since it opened with my family, and numerous times for lunch with my colleagues and BVR never disappoints. The food is incredible, and the staff are so friendly. It's nice to see bussiness owners so involved with the daily operations and making sure everything is perfect. Sadly I've moved to Toronto so I only get to come once a month or so, but I definately make a point of going when I'm back!
Delicious food. Good atmosphere.
Update: I stopped here for lunch with a coworker. They renovated and it looks great. As well the food was excellent!
