It’s my first time to eat here. I enjoyed every single bite of all the food we ordered. The venue is so beautiful and the vibes were great. The beef noodle tasted phenomenal. It was so tender and tasty and the texture was perfect to my liking. All ingredients were fresh and the server’s attention was great. I hoped they gave us a bit more basils and lime. Next time I will probably ask the server if we could get more. I will definitely visit again.

Overall, the food was absolutely delicious! The grilled chicken is the highlight perfectly charred on the outside with a sweet and savory glaze, while the meat is incredibly tender and juicy. Paired with the vermicelli noodles and light fish sauce, the flavors are rich and well-balanced. The green papaya salad is tangy, refreshing, and appetizing. The shrimp is fresh and bouncy, and the combination with peanuts and fresh herbs is spot on. The fresh spring rolls are thin and chewy on the outside with a light, refreshing filling a perfect appetizer to start the meal. Additionally, one of the female staff members left a strong impression. Although she wasn’t the main server for our table, she was attentive, always checking on every table and greeting customers with a warm smile, which made the experience even better. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and I will definitely come back again!

Decent pho spot in Richmond that features a large menu and has a pretty nice interior. Their food service here is also solid as they are very attentive. Pricing wise, they are more expensive than other pho restaurants and I think that’s why a lot of people don’t like this spot. The pho itself is good. The wings are not what I thought they were, more like BBQ wings.

20251001 I heard from a friend that this place also has a branch in Toronto. The restaurant is spacious and comfortable. Since it was a weekday and not quite mealtime yet, it wasn’t very busy. I ordered the S-size special rice noodle soup — the portion was generous, and the broth tasted pretty good. I’ll definitely come back to try other dishes next time.

I won’t go to Richmond if I don’t have to. Drivers there stresses me out and I’m Asian. I’ve seen this Vietnamese Costco of a restaurant driving by a couple times already. My judging ass already thought it was probably a Chinese knock off. I usually only try to support the mom and pop Joints. But screw it I was curious . The sheer size had me feeling like this was a Vietnamese restaurant on the top floor of a Chinese mega mall in China. The portions were big enough and the broth was flavorful. Prices were higher than competitors but inflation hits different in Richmond. The service was friendly and also no nonsense. The fast food paced vibes, I swear made me eat faster. End of the day, this place was better than I expected.

We stumbled upon this place by chance and went in without any big expectations, but the food turned out to be amazing! We ordered the mango salad, pho #18 and #19, and spring rolls. Everything was super fresh and clearly made with care. The atmosphere was cozy and clean, with lovely decor, and even the washroom was neat and tidy. Both phos had plenty of meat and a rich, flavorful broth. Overall, a great experience. we’ll definitely be back next time we’re in Richmond!

I stopped by on a whim, and it was so good! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and everything was clean and well kept. The dish I really wanted to try was sold out, which was a bit disappointing, but overall it was such a satisfying lunch. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!
