Best Vietnamese restaurant in Canada

m	marijane heart on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ First off, there are not enough stars to give for this review of Viet Mama Cafe in Vancouver on on Victoria St. between 35th and 36th Ave. The Food here is very reasonable in cost for what you get in quality. The staff are very polight and hardworking always taking care of customers needs when needed. The food here is so delicious. The Grilled Lemongrass Chicken ( Bánh Mì Gà Nướng) also the Grilled Lemongrass Pork Sliced ( Bánh Mì Thịt Nướng) is one of if not the best I have had in Metro Vancouver in a really long time. I also had the most delicious dish here it's their Special Fried Rice (Cơm Chiên Đặc Biệt)(*See picture below). I had the Chocolate Slush and Taro Slush to drink and they were both made so well made and tasted perfect. The time and effort the staff put into every customers experience here makes it a very pleasant and enjoyable one. You can get either take out or dine in here, however I would suggest due to limited seating you may want to phone ahead if you wish to dine in. The other thing about this amazing place is they are open later then most other places, so even if you just get hungry late night and want something worth the trip and money, then Viet Mama Cafe is the place to go. Thank you to the staff for making my first trip that of many more to come. 10 outta 10 hands down on quality choice place to eat.
C	Catherine Chan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Staff was very friendly, attentive and fast, especially the girl named Anna. I ordered the Bun cha Hanoi as her suggestion and it was really good, full of flavor and a must try item. The price of the meals were average, but the portions were very big also! I was also happy that this restaurant way more cozy nice and clean than i thought. Higly recommended!!!
T	Thomas Yuen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Update March 2022, seems to have been a new owner change. I guess because of the covid times the old owners had to sell there family restaurant to a new group. Food quality seems like more quantity instead of quality. Vibe feels more like a late night joint to eat. Hours are crazy open till 3am on most days! Before the owner change the food was amazing!

M	Minh Lu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stumbled upon this delicious vietnamese joint. Simple one page menu with reasonable pricing. No need to have 40-50 items. Food was tasty and authentic. Banh cuon is made fresh but only on Sat and Sun. Portions were good and ratio between vermicelli, meat and greens/herbs were spot on. Enjoyed our visit and will be back to try their Pho and rice dishes.
K	K W on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Solid place for pho and happy to go to a local place! The interior is very clean and modern. Service was great! The pho is nicely done- not overly salty but still flavourful. The butter garlic wings had a nice crunch when you bite into them.
D	Dango Lam on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had 3 items from the menu delivered. Deep fried chicken was decent (only thing that we could finish) Lemon grass chicken needed way more seasoning and the "fish sauce" tasted like watered down vinegar. Beef stew was very watery and also bland not to mention that the meat was hard. All in all, it was very disappointing for a $50+ meal
S	Stephanie on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ordered takeout and was told it would take 15-20 minutes but it took around 30 minutes before it was ready. We ordered the 47. Com Ga Cha Gio - $14.95, 38. Sate peanut pho chicken -$ 14.50 and 39. Bahn Nhan - $14.95. Everything came in a healthy portion. The peanut noodles could have called for more peanut flavour. But I enjoyed it regardless. They were also really generous with the toppings. The rice rolls were very soft and the filling was a bit dry but when dipped in the provided sauce it was good. I liked that they provided fish cakes and when wrapped together was very good. The rice topped with chicken and spring roll was I believe the smallest portion of the three. The spring roll was very crispy. The chicken had a very strong lemon grass and wasn't too dry. I did enjoy most of the food and would come back to try other foods. They have a big menu so there's lots to try.
E	Einstein Salvatus on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Always open late and service is great! All staff will greet you with a smile and are always up for a good conversation. Food is consistent and 5/5 in flavour. Also a very speedy service if your are in a rush. Portions are spot and price is very reasonable. You won’t regret giving this hole in the wall a visit.
