Had the best birthday celebration at XO Bistro. They somehow accommodated 36 people with separate bills and made it look effortless (which deserves a standing ovation on its own). The service was next-level organized; utensils were always delivered with meals, plates were cleared lightning-fast, and our drinks were never empty for even a second.
The ambiance was perfect for a birthday vibe, the playlist was on point all night, and the food… wow. So flavourful, so delicious – every dish hit. I love love love their chicken wings and Bun Rieu always hits.
Huge thank you to Jaryd and the other tall Asian server with the great hair and elite music taste – you both absolutely crushed it. Playful, attentive, and genuinely fun service without ever missing a beat. You guys made the experience top notch, thank you so so much!!
Highly recommend XO Bistro for group celebrations. Really, really well done!!

Ordered through Uber eats. The order was ready on time. Pick-up was very easy. The waiter was friendly and got my order right away. Nothing was missing, and everything was packed nicely. Every item we ordered was still very hot and tasty. Good size portions as well.

From the outside, you can’t even begin to imagine what you might see inside. The first words out of my mouth were, “Woah! It’s a whole tree!” A beautiful sakura tree decorated with lanterns greets you, and amidst the other yellow, hanging lights, it resembles an Asian garden at dusk. The vibe is moody but chic with white leather booths and sleek dark wood. There are a lot of TVs and the volume is on the loud side, but it was an Oilers game. The server who seated us was friendly and attentive. The food… honestly, not everything hit the mark, especially the appetizers, but one prawny miss is not bad! The vegan pho was delicious! The broth is warm, not scalding, with depth. Desserts were sensational! Bottom line, you gotta try this…

First time ordering out. I received my food which was displayed beautifully…without the rice breaking it’s round shape. That’s pretty good considered it was delivered to me from a distance.
Update – Sept 11/23. Dined in for the first time on a quiet Monday. Food was delicious and service was great.

I have been here twice during my last two visits to Edmonton. The restaurant has a lot of TV showing sports, but it is not a sport bar. I tried many dishes and in general they were good, but in my opinion, the broth in their pho was not as flavorful as other pho places. The service was prompt and attentive and the price was also reasonable.

Clean modern restaurant. Service is very friendly and attentive ( Brianna). The food was excellent and came out fast. Enjoyed the spicy beef soup ( Bun Bo Hue) and the grill chicken vermicelli was very tasty, perfectly seasoned and tender. Generous with meat portions. Lots of parking since it’s in a new plaza

XO’s non-traditional take on Vietnamese cuisine, and moody but minimal Art Deco interior come together for a unique, delicious and memorable experience.
To start we ordered the Oxtail Fries and Pork, Chicken, Shrimp, and Beef Skewers with Sesame. For entrees we ordered the large Bun Bo Hue (spicy lemongrass beef broth and thick rice noodles) and the Combo #3 Rice Bowl with pork.
The oxtail fries were TOOOOO good, the fries on their own are great but in combination with the oxtail gravy, jammy egg yolk and green onion — it was delectable! The skewers was also amazing! The smokiness of each meat is to die for and totally worth the splurge (as it’s $3-4/skewer and they’re kind of small). The meats also pair super well with the peanut-curry sauce on the side.
The Bun Bo Hue was super yummy, and HUGE! Definitely fit for two. I’ve never had this kind of broth before, but I enjoyed how fresh the lemongrass flavour was. The thick noodles were also really enjoyable. Surprisingly, the rice bowl ended up being my favourite dish! It was such a wonderful medley of flavours. The veggies were really fresh, the meat brings in that smoky element and their fish sauce takes it to the next level.
On a separate occasion, for takeout I tried the Spicy Salted Egg Yolk Prawn. While this dished was very expensive and arguably overpriced ($22 for 4 shrimp ) — the shrimp and side salad was BUSSINNNN. The flavour of the shrimp is really unique, and I would honestly order the salad on its own it was that good!
Given the price, quality of food AND ambience — XO Bistro is a really gem. Beyond their impressive menu, they also have: a private dining room, heated outdoor patio, massive luxe booths, a wicked drink menu, and it will be open till 1 AM starting in May… it’s giving enjoyment, and I can’t lie, XO Bistro might have made its way onto my favourites list!
