Lac Vien just kind of popped up suddenly in the middle of no where.
Located in a plaza where Subway and McDonalds rules (the lunch choices for people working in the area) and Lac Vien is a welcome additional in this neighbourhood.
The interior is clean, spacious and open. A lot of windows seating that overlooking Markham Road that traffic zooming along way above the speed limit. Music is "romantic" and "loud" with the dial set at Sirius XM Love.
Pho House Special Large ($7.50) is one of the better ones in Scarborough area as the broth has a nice aroma of herbs and the beef quality was good (the beef brisket was so tender even with its thicker cut!). The soup itself though can be a little hotter maybe I should request that next time?
Iced Coffee with Condensed Milk ($3.50) is made not from the traditional metal French drip filter but from a BVB coffee machine. A perfect "dessert" drink for me though.
Service was fast and polite!
Lac Vien definitely a good Vietnamese restaurant if you have some cravings for Vietnamese food. They serves more than Pho! I think I will be back to try their Phnom Penh Noodles next time!
