This is restaurant that my family and I visits at least once every 2-3 months. Now as a vietnamese restaurant your pho must be AWESOME and in this case it is =P That's why we often go back. The soup base is rich but not overly intense. The veggies are always fresh and so is the noodles. You can really tell if you haven't pho / Asian soup noodle for most of your life. Definitely a must try if you never had pho at a non franchised viet restaurant north of the city. While you are there, get a papaya smoothie and if the pho doesn't fill you, go for the chicken hot pot rice! SO GOOD and flavourful.
Now the sad part. We always wanted to try their curry crab and since it was my mom's Bday last week, we decided to give it a shot. It was late into a weekday evening and we were super hungry and seeing crab and chicken hot pot rice would usually take longer to cook then other dishes we ordered it immediately (without asking for the price). The food came and as expected, YUMMY! Crab came with fresh thin pieces of bread and to my surprised plastic disposable gloves (for those who don't like to get their hands all curry'ish loll)
When the bill came there was an item that came to $60. Taken a further look, it was the curry crab. I immediately asked the waitress, is this a mistake? We ordered 1 crab ... And my parents jumped in asking what's the weight of the crab. She answered just about ~ 1lb. but it's not charged based on weight, it's per crab. Ok guys, i'm definitely not cheap when it comes to trying out new taste, but $60 for a ~ 1 lb crab? At #FishmanLobsterClubhouse they charge "Lobster ($17/lb) and King Crab or Vancouver Crab ($45/lb)".
Lesson here is ... ask the price before ordering. We deserved to be charged double / triple for what's worth, but maybe you can get a deal if there were more patron and it's not a weekday?
