I'mma be real here.. there's no better pho between Scarborough and York region than this place. I review one or two places a year on Yelp cuz i ain't got time for this.. but here I am writing my second(!) review of this place 8 months later.
First off can I just say if you're worried about the decor or servers who don't speak perfect English, or want to substitute beef for bean curd (huhh??? C'mon now........) you got your? pho priorities all wrong.
Here's how it is: These legit Viet folks make a deep, savoury and complex broth that's not oily and they don't use msg so you can drink that bowl up. They use thin rice noodles not Chinese hofun, and are generous with the meat- which comes tender and fresh. Plus they got that pickled garlic on the table that goes oh so well with the srirarcha and hoisin. Simple and delicious. What the hell else you want from a pho place???
Whoever says this joint is just another Scarborough pho place does not understand pho. Even my kids who we drag around the city trying different pho places ask to come back here, which we do once a month at minimum. I can't recommend this place enough.
