Solid 4.5 stars for this restaurant. I'm a bit puzzled why the ratings are so low... but I'm a regular customer at this little location up in East Markham. They have really good food here! I know a lot of friends who live around the area that all come here to eat regularly. My hubby and I come in almost once every 1-2 weeks for some decent Viet food. My family (including my brother who actually lives out in Oakville) - we come here from time to time for lunch/dinner!
There are a few things I almost always order:
1. Pho. The broth is more light for the Pho, but it's not too salty and I actually really like that. Noodle portions are generous and often times I have trouble finishing it!
2. Vermicelli. Their vermicelli is also really good. I know it's a little weird that their noodles are a bit warm but I actually don't mind that - that way the noodles are a bit softer too when I eat with the spring rolls and the minced pork - which is seasoned nicely.
3. Curry Chicken/Beef Brisket. I love their curry. It is amazing!! the beef brisket is always nice and tender, and it comes with a side order of rice or you can upgrade for a few dollars and get their roti. I haven't tried the pita yet but it's a bit frustrating that i have to pay an extra 3-4 dollars just for it... but eventually I think i'll give it a try!
If you get their lunch special, which is the beef brisket one, you can also get a coffee/tea or pay 75 cents to upgrade to a Viet coffee. Their Viet coffee is legit - I love it. Best part? They give you your own little squeeze bottle of condensed milk so you can adjust the sweetness to your own liking!!!! They also give you a jug of hot water so you can rebrew a second cup... and I love these guys for that :)
Portions are always very generous we always end up packing food to go! So for the price point I think it's great!
We came on a Sunday lunch recently, and the traffic at the restaurant was busy! They serve you very quickly, and food usually comes out within 10 mins. There was a line up by the time I left the restaurant so people definitely like this place!
