The Pho Restaurant

One of the best pho restaurants in Markham. I'm so glad they reopened after more than a year being closed. Started off by using Yelp waitlist for a table for 2. Within the estimated time of 30-42 mins, I got a call that my table is ready. I got there and wasn't really told what to do and wasn't given any menus. So I just scanned the QR code and looked at the menu. After asking a server to take an order, she tells me, you just scan and order... so I'm like oh ok. I ordered the wrap and special pho and the viet rice with lemongrass pork chop and beef ribs. My boyfriends pho ended up coming the fastest before our appetizer came (roll). He ended up eating for 15mins before the roll came and then another 10mins wait until my rice came. It's quite unacceptable, as I had to sit there watching my bf eat and how his came before the appetizer. Upon waiting for the roll and my rice , we asked the server politely to check on our appetizer and see if it's going to come soon. The servers reply was "kitchen is making it " and left , well yes I know the kitchen is making it but, I would've appreciated if she went to the kitchen and ask if it would be ready within a few minutes and came back and gave me an update. The table next to us was also frustrated with waiting for their meals, and asked the server and she once again repeated the same thing she said to my bf and I. Overall, the food quality is still the same and good. However the service needs to speed up and provide a better explanation rather than "kitchen is making it" and leave it at that without checking with the kitchen.

The broth is so good! Very fragrant and aromatic. The beef is tender with marbling fat, I have never had such good quality meet for pho! I also had the fried spring rolls (forgot to take a picture) and they were very good too! The owner really takes care of their customers and always create a good vibe!

First time here today with the wife, had the Pho Tai, Hu Tieu and A12 Chicken wings.. Being Vietnamese myself I can attest the menu and dishes we ordered so far is authentic to the taste buds ? Pho = soup clear and savory, not powered mix, noodles soft and vegetables fresh ? soup could be served a bit hotter ? Hu Tieu = soup was pretty good, ingredients are fresh, wife enjoyed it but missing the signature shrimp cracker/pancake A12 Wings batter was crispy, well seasoned and could use a bit more sauce in the mix but overall we enjoyed our lunch there and had a pleasant experience to come back for round 2 dinner courses next time. Place was clean and covid protocols in effect. The menu and ordering system is quite intuitive, anything extra you need you can just ask the friendly waitresses to get

Went here with my 15yr old between his basketball games this past Sat. for the first time. We were waiting for the menu to be brought to us as we weren't aware and our watiress failed to take a few seconds to explain that we had to Scan the QR at the table there to place our orders (maybe waitress assumed we were aware and this wasn't our first time...???). My son and I were literally the 1st 2pple to sit down when they opened at 11am...so I'm not sure what happened there. Anyhow, when we finally scanned the QR, my son ordered his dish no problem but the dish I wanted wasn't in the displayed option and had to be taken the old fashion way by the waitress (paper&pen) . I had the Chicken Pad Thai and son had lemon grass pork/rice dish. Food was delicious, service could've been a bit better. Don't assume that your customers knows your ordering process (especially if it is their first time there) , it just takes a few seconds to explain ?.

Great place for Vietnamese cuisine & Pho, fragrant tasty broth, nice firm Vietnamese rice noodles, also great fried chicken wings. Very busy at meal times. Join the waitlist on Yelp and time your arrival to avoid lengthy wait times. Each table has a QR code that you need to scan and order from the online menu. Efficient and friendly service.

We visited this new location moved from the old place. The restaurant was super clean and roomy. The Owner was very friendly and welcoming as usual. We started off with the appetizer plater. It had great presentation and it tastes as good as it looks. Our group order different things and all was freshly prepared and it was hot. I recommend that you put your name in line on the Yelp app a head of time because it is very busy. A 5 star experience.

It's good. Nothing particularly bad on the dishes we ordered, but nothing particularly stands out either. Prices are on the high side but if you are craving for Vietnamese food when around the area, there's no better choice. Oh you can skip the red bean with jelly drink, whilst it taste ok, there no much "drink" in there, mostly ice.

The Pho here was amazing. Very authentic tasting. We ordered beef brisket and beef balls. The serving of meat was more than we would get downtown and the cost was also a lot cheaper than downtowns 18$+ for pho these days. The bean sprouts were also very fresh and crunchy. We also ordered rice with 2 meats. That was a small portion, would not feed an adult. Would not order that again.
