We came here around noon on a Sunday to come for some pho to warm up. Our group of 15 managed to get seated at the 2 large tables near the counter.
I had the house special pho, banh xeo (vietnamese pancake), and of course, an Avocado shake. The pho had a really flavourful broth, it was heavily spiced, which threw me off, because I expected a stronger beef flavour to compliment the spices. The portion was decently sized. The banh xeo was much better. I haven't had a decent banh xeo in Toronto in some time. The portion was large and the flavours were good. The coconut milk definitely shone through on this. The only thing that could be better about this would be more lettuce. I only got 4 leafs, which is definitely not enough for all of the pancake.
The avocado smoothie was a big disappointment. There was so much ice in the smoothie you could taste the chunks. The flavours were also off, probably due to the addition of other fruits?
The cost is typical of Vietnamese food around $8-10/entree. The value of the portions is good.
Seating sits a total of around 30-40 people so it could get be better
The service here was fine.
A decent place for Vietnamese food, one of the few with banh xeo. Some things could be better, but decently priced and the portions are good.
