This is my "Cheers" inspired review.
Sometimes you want to go,
Where nobody knows your name, but you're always glad you came.
You want food that is comforting, a place that's open in the morning.
You want go where prices remain the sameeeeee.
Truthfully, 'Xe Lua Restaurant' deserves a three star. The service is bland, the food is mediocre but the price is right and they are perhaps the better option for Pho compared to the many other locations along Dundas and Spadina. So, because of these last two points I have to bump them up to a four star.
For a first time experience consider ordering a small or medium Pho Special 101.
'Cheers'!
