Easily one of the best Pho restaurants I’ve been to in Vancouver. Usually I like the Pho Bo Kho so I tried their Saigon Beef Stew Noodles and was not disappointed! Very tender meat, fantastic broth and good overall! For a side I got their Mami’s Spring Rolls which were very well seasoned and a great value on the happy hour menu!
Also tried a bowl of their standard broth and was blown away! Absolutely chock-full of flavour and depth.
My server Cindy was extremely friendly and attentive. She took the time to chat with me on top of asking how everything was, which I appreciated very much.
Genuinely a 10/10 experience. My photos don’t do the experience justice.

Went during happy hour and got the pho! Everything tasted fresh. The pandan coffee was well balanced and light. Spring rolls were fresh and crispy!! Chicken wings with spicy fish sauce was great too. Overall would want to go back to try the other dishes! Service was quick and great.

The happy hour deal from 2:00–6:00 p.m. is unbeatable — $10 per bowl of beef noodle soup. So far, I don’t think you can find a lower price anywhere in Vancouver.
The beef pho is decent, the broth is good, and the spring rolls are a must-try. The drinks are also solid, so if you’re passing through this area, it’s definitely worth stopping by and giving it a try!

i went during happy hour which is every day from 2-6pm. the beef pho is only $10 which is unreal. the broth and noodles are decent. there are a ton of different cuts of beef and it even includes beef balls. overall its a good simple bowl of beef pho. it’s not the best i’ve had but for the price you can’t beat it. the spring rolls are very crispy and tasty as well.

I came during lunchtime on a Saturday and it was quite busy, but I was greeted and seated right away. Food came out quickly as well. Got the rare beef pho. The broth was flavorful and savory. I wouldn’t say it’s the most authentic pho I’ve had, but it’s more than good enough if you’re just looking for a quick lunch. They also have a happy hour menu with $10 pho and $4 drinks, which is honestly an unbeatable deal in this economy lol. Highly recommend

I came for happy hour and was very pleased. $10 for a full sized bowl of pho is awesome value. The broth was super flavourful and delicious. There was a good amount of meat in the soup as well. I also had the pork belly slider but I would opt for extra meat rather than the slider next time. It wasn’t bad just nothing terribly special. Service was great and the restaurant was clean and whatnot. Overall good experience and would come back again.

After Italy Day last summer, we walked from Little Italy along Hastings Street all the way to the end of Burnaby Heights, and discovered the various $10 promotional meals as we passed by. Afterwards, we decided to give them a try, and we’re delighted by both the tastes and portions offered – certainly value for the prices charged. And, the waiting staff (we later learnt of the name of one, called Cindy) were all efficient yet courteous. We’ve been heading back once almost every week and look forward to bringing some of our friends there.

It was our first time going as a groupe of foodies. We loved the fact that they offered a daily special for way less money. It still tasted amazing. VERY flavourful the tea was warm and just right in strength. We had to wait a bit as it was super busy but nit was worth it.

My daughter and I tried for the first time and fell in love . The Happy Hour is perfect option. $10 for 3 dishes. We ordered 2 mini beef pho and one spicy chicken roll. The size of the mini pho is perfect for my daughter. Both the pho and the roll with hot peanut sauce is just a blast of taste. It’s delicious with a perfect portion. I ended up ordering a full size bowl for home. It is that good. The pho soup is just right and the roll is so fresh.
Not only the food, the mini tiny table and stool is so comforting (as an asian you know if you know). It feels like back home in Indonesia when we enjoy our favourite food vendor.
I also tried their coconut coffee, taste . I will try the other one next time. Oh yes, we are definitely coming back. A must visit when you are at downtown Vancouver. A hidden gem that feels like home and taste like perfection!
