  • I grew up in west end of Toronto (Weston and Finch) and some of the best pho restaurants were only a short drive away. Needless to say I had pho on a weekly basis. Ever since moving downtown, it was difficult to find a good, authentic pho restaurant. I've tried the "top" pho restaurants downtown (Pho Tien Thanh, Golden Turtle, etc) but didn't find them to be as good as home (flavour was off or too oily). I decided to give Com Tam Pho (formerly Peach Garden) a try since I recognized the name, I was pleasantly surprised! The rice and pho dishes here are very tasty and quite authentic. The pho had two noodle options: dry noodles (typically what you get a pho restaurants) and fresh noodles (I prefer this...noodles are little softer/chewier). The large #101 came with plenty of meat and enough to keep me full and very satisfied. The broth is not as oily as the "top" pho restaurants downtown. I always loved the rice at Peach Garden...they have the best shrimp in bean curd. I tried the rice dish here and sure enough the shrimp in bean curd was exactly as I remembered (yay!) Another plus is that this place actually has broken rice, I've been to a number of other Vietnamese restaurants downtown that only had regular rice. The rice dish I usually order comes with a fried egg but the servers always lets me substitute that for a steamed egg at no additional cost. Since it's a Vietnamese restaurant, I count that as great service haha. Tips: - Keep in mind that this is a Vietnamese restaurant so dishes like curry, pad thai (or any Thai dishes), fried noodles etc are not going to be great. - Every time I come after 8pm, the restaurant seems to be out of fresh noodles so if that's what you're looking for, try to come earlier. - I've noticed this at many Vietnamese restaurants: service and food portions seems to go down the later you come. I would suggest getting here before 9pm. - The restaurant only accepts cash and debit (no credit cards) I am now a frequent customer and this is the only place I go to when I am craving Vietnamese downtown.
