Just what you'd expect from a small family run pho restaurant. What it may lack in service it makes up for in the food and it doesn't take long at all for your food to arrive. It's a tiny restaurant just before Grandview on Rupert with lots of Street parking. It's not the most well kept but it does deliver flavour and for a decent price too. I had one of their pork and spring roll vermicelli bowls. I had to share half with my partner because it was too much for one person but the spring rolls were crispy and not too oily, with your typical filing and the pork was actually quite flavorful and for someone who doesn't usually enjoy pork I found it wasn't overly Salty and goes perfectly with the garlicky chili sauce they give on the side. Would I go again? If I'm looking for a quick cheap bite to eat, yep!
In the last 5 years I've been here..say..97 times. I've liked this place since day 1. So much so that I tell everyone about it, and they all like it too. The pho broth is one of the best around which is why this place is such a hit.
The rice and vermicelli dishes are average to above average depending on how picky you are. I have all 3 types of dishes on rotation. #1, #36 and #56.
It's a small place so if you want to have a private conversation with your pals, this isn't the place to go. Cash only. It keeps the prices down.
Small hole-in-the-wall restaurant, seats 24. About 1/3 full on a 3pm on a Friday. Ordered #37: skewered pork, shredded pork, spring roll, veggies, vermicelli. Waited about 12 minutes for food to come.
Nice looking plate, healthy portion size. Veggies looked fresh and crisp and there was some basil and chiles too. Spring roll was piping hot and crunchy. Skewered pork was tender and tasty. Shredded pork was mostly the gelatinous fatty kind. I'm not a fan of fatty foods, but being cut so thin, I didn't mind it at all.
Ambience however is lacking. The place is clean but it looks like it's falling apart. Also saw a guy carry away two small, tightly wrapped garbage bags away in plastic buckets through the front door. Might have been garbage, which is possibly a health code violation?
The best viet joints are a bit dirty though, and the food was pretty good. I may stop by again if I'm in the neighborhood to try the pho.
Solid Pho. I had the rare beef pho, I'm not sure exactly to the cut it was, but it was tasty nonetheless. Noodles were extremely tasty, as was the beefy broth. The bean sprouts were very welcome in it. Oh and the spring rolls here are amazing. Very cost effective too! bring cashola.
Hole in the wall with good food!. I usually go here when it's cold outside and am craving a hot bowl of soup. Portion sizes are decent and the soup is tasty. The owners are very friendly and service is great! I'll keep coming back.
I've been here twice and both times were amazing! Really small but really friendly people.
Best Bun Bo Hue.... In Vancouver that I've tried so far.
Everytime I go to Pho Nhuan, I only order the bun bo hue. Well balance of spicy and a little sour soup base but great flavours all around!
Great hole in wall pho. This is a whole in the wall place. I have driven by it many time and have always wanted to try it out as it seems like there is always people waiting outside, but this place isn't really that big.
I went a couple of times and everytime, I see the same lady. Nicest thing alive. She gives great service! I think the food is pretty tasty there as well. For the amount food, it was not expensive at all.
Love it! Will definatley go back!!!
A rainy day is always a good time for pho. A few weeks ago (yes, I am so behind on posting - I know!) Chris suggested I try a little place near Rupert Skytrain station that he had visited once previously himself. I must admit, while I know that some "hole
My family randomly stumbled upon this restaurant one time and have been raving about it for weeks, so I had to go and try it out.
