| - A slightly more upscale Vietnamese Restaurant located at Jane and Wilson.
SLIGHTLY UPSCALE
The patrons coming in wore $400 pair of jeans, business men in tidy suits, utensils giving to you in boiling hot water (we asian people like to know things are clean), walls were nicely decorated, and it was clean.
FOOD
The food was nothing special. Same typical vietnamese food.
I had #19 (seafood and assorted meat egg noodle) on the menu (see picture) since this place is famous for it. The meat was actually very tasty. I believe it was ox liver? Usually though, i'm not a fan of liver. The serving was large and I took about 1/2 home. (But then again, I only eat a small for pho)
My friend had #20, seafood egg noodle soup. He really liked it. They gave us the traditional garnishes such as red hot chili peppers.
COSTS
This place is a tad more expensive than the traditional Pho restaurants. My meal and my friend's meal each cost $7.25. I was a bit stunned about the price of the avocado shakes. They were $4 each and they came in such a small cup (took a peek at the neighbours table, so not sure what they tasted like).
SERVER
The food took longer to get to us than at other pho places I've been to. It could perhaps be the they had to fry my little shrimp. But the server had our menu, tea, and utensils as soon as we sat down. She took our order quickly too.
The place is pretty good. But I'm still not sure if the premium prices were completely justified at this Pho restaurant. But then again, the prices are a lot less than if you were to go to most other type of restaurants so try this one out!
