Got the classic broken rice with pork chop, not actually broken rice and fish sauce was overly sweet. Maybe it was a one time fluke, but man I have never had such revolting tasting fish sauce, how you you mess it up that badly? Didn't try the pho which might be good from reading other reviews but this rich dish was so sad I'm never returning lol.

I don't know about the food as I waited for a long time at the front and nobody came and greeted me. And then I left.

- I didn’t see any crabs in my crab pho but only the overcooked marinated egg.- They do cash only.

Love how they have an option on the menu for all 3 chicken ball, fish ball and beef ball in the rice noodle soup. Great flavour and friendly service. Quite small and warm inside though, but definitely a great place to

This place is an authentic, hole-in-the-wall, comfort food cuisine. The entrance is located on the outside of Crystal Mall. The street parking is usually a little tricky, but the inside of the mall has plenty of spots. The restaurant has a noticeably older look on the inside, but do not be fooled by its look, as the flavors definitely make up for them. The waiter, which I assume is also the owner (since I always see her here), is quick with orders. I usually get the rare steak and tendon noodle soup, which had a nice light beef bone broth, with noodles done just right. The rare steak was consistently on the fresher side, with nice vibrant vegetables to pair. Yum! The lemongrass chicken with rice is also something I recommend you're provided generous portions of rice and chicken, with a pickled radish carrot salad. Overall this will be a staple for my Vietnamese cravings. I've definitely been a regular, and will continue to be!FYI The restaurant is cash only, and the cook usually serves the mint, jalapenos and bean sprouts along with the beef noodle soup, so ask ahead of time if you dislike any of them.
$15 + taxes for a small special pho. Quite a bit more expensive than a month ago. Chicken wings were also much more expensive and were overcooked in dark brown color.

Our favourite go-to Vietnamese restaurant! Always a bang for your buck. Love their deep fried egg roll (deep fried spring roll on their menu). It's the best we've had so far compared to other viet restaurants.

Food is delicious and employees have hearts of gold. My son was ill. And they gave us limes to go home with and told us to mix the skin with honey to make him feel better. He made a recovery. Warms my heart that they were concerned for him. Very kind people.

We had the BBH and curry rice. It wasn't authentic but it was attuned to more of the Chinese taste and it was reallllly cheap. The wings were crispy and tasty. It was basically cash only there. The table beside us tried using the card machine took 4 5 times before it fails completely which they then asked for an etransfer instead and that exchange also seemed a little sketchy.
