| - [LOCATION] - 3/5
Hidden in the plaza with Sunny Foodmart on 14th Ave. and Markham Rd. Sign was not very
apparent at night. So, look carefully to spot this place.
[SERVICE] - 3.5/5
Server was friendly, but forgot to bring napkins, and the sauce for my order.
[DÉCOR] - 4/5
Clean, looks bigger on the inside than outside, but eerily quiet at 7:00PM on a Friday night. I
had to speak so softly because there was no white-noise or background noise to cancel out the
silence. The restaurant livened up a little later as more guests sat down for dinner.
[FOOD QUALITY] - 3/5
Average. Vegetables were fresh but meat-quality was mediocre.
[ORDER]
- Grilled Chicken & Vietnamese Pork Sausage Vermicelli Bowl - $9.95: comes with
lettuce, cucumber, mint, bean sprouts, homemade pickled carrots, dried shallots and
toasted peanuts. The toppings were fresh. Noodles were a little mushy and individual
strands stuck to one another. Grilled chicken was dry & pork sausage was not juicy. I
guess the only good thing is the quantity of food because this dish is bigger in
comparison with other Vietnamese restaurants in the area
- Pho Tai (Rare Beef with Rice Noodle Soup) - $9.85: soup broth was too salty and tasted
like MSG, and noodles were not firm enough. Fortunately, the homemade beef balls
were soft & tasted pretty good.
[OVERALL] - 3/5
I had pretty high expectations for this place because of the hype. Sadly, I think the food was just
average. The meat was not juicy enough, and noodles were too soggy.
