we have tried the other Vietnamese nearby and this is the most tasteful around. We had tried all items on the menu now and all were tasty and generous. Altogether, we come for the delicious Hanoi dill crispy fish (soup or noodles) and the grilled meat platters (chicken lemon grass is my favorite). the staff is super friendly and the atmosphere is cosy. yes, they do not have everything Vietnamese but the few (pho and bun mainly) at excellent! read more

Great pho place! It's tight inside but larger groups can fit. The food cokes fast and well-cooked.

We timed our recent trip to Hanoi well, we got there just before the hordes arrived. No surprise that, given the consistently tasty food. We started with Hen - sauted spicy (tumeric) baby clams with crispy rice crackers. Tumeric is heavily used at Hanoi (maybe in all North Vietnamese food?), in this case it worked nicely with the chewy clams. As a main, I had Bo Xao Sate - Spicy beef sate with basil and mint. The added chili sauce put it over the top. The partner's main was, Bo Xao Rau Cai - Garlic beef with stir fry vegetables. It was cleaned up. It was a typical Hanoi experience. From the hand-stitched Vietnamese art on the walls to the service from Tyler our favourite waiter, it's the perfect little neighbourhood restaurant. Just try to get there early. read more

I was expecting a certain level of excellence, as a friend recommended this place as his favourite pho. The food tasted cheap and greasy. The beef in my soup was like eating rubber. The broth was sickly. Overall it wasn't for me. read more

#27 w/ vermicelli is divine! Staff is friendly and the wait isn't long at all.

This restaurant is a small place near the corner of Gerard and Broadview so easy to get there on TTC. We wondered in without knowing restaurants in the area and we were pleasantly surprised. The menu has some good choices even for vegetarians. The pho we ordered was excellent as were the spring rolls. Service was friendly and fast. Prices were very reasonable considering the food quality. This place seems very popular with local residents. read more

ive been to the one on gerrard street (they just opened up a new one on queen thats much nicer looking than the this one). this one fine enough decor wise with simple black tables and virtually no vibe. if there is any vibe, it comes from the staff and the food (which, for most asian restaurants is the standard by which you judge i believe - except actually i would just pare that down to the food, not the staff otherwise...well i think we all know.) strangely, this was the first time i have ever been to an asian restaurant where there was a white server. (peculiar informational tidbit is all.). he was very cordial, pleasant and inviting. one of the other servers, who was asian was actually quite a ham and made the entire eating experience very pleasurable, not even considering the food. so the food, in my estimation was great. we shared some veggie spring rolls which were awesome and i had a clam dish which i enjoyed, but the most memorable was a pho house special with three kinds of beef - rare beef, well done beef and beef balls. i found the broth quite flavourful, the meat tender and tasty and the accompanying sauces great to combine with the dishes. i hear good things about their signature fish dish which i will try when i return. read more

I didn't expect it from the facade but this restaurant knows their Vietnamese cuisine! Very decent pho and vermicelli plates. My favourite has to be the spicy baby clams with rice crackers. They have a great kick and are packed with flavour. The service is decent too. I usually get the male server who can speak and understand fluent English (I find this uncommon for little asian restaurants). Definitely worth a taster if you're in the area! read more

A friend introduced me to Hanoi 3 Seasons. Nothing special about the ambiance, and it really is a tiny location BUT the deliciousness of the food makes up for it several times over :) read more

Freakin' OUTSTANDING. Fabulous food that's very affordable, great service. Keep it up, people!!!

Food is great, especially their grilled catfish (I asked for extra dill and the chef happily added it) and their seafood tamarind soup noodles. Staff were really friendly and happy to accommodate. read more

The restaurant definitely looked very promising with intimidate settings and was cleaner than most Chinatown spots. The pork spring rolls (special) was great while the pho definitely disappointed. The noodles were not fresh or chewy, the broth bland, and the beef balls was not homemade. However, the beef slices and beef brisket tasted very fresh and high quality. I might go back to try other dishes. read more

Had a great meal here. You don't expect much and they always surprise you. It's certainly not the best of the best but it's good food for a solid price. read more

Hands down the best, most unique, authentic and tasty cuisine east of the DVP in downtown Toronto. Small, intimate place, ideal to eat in or take out, on-the-spot friendly service. The main highlight - the FOOD! Everything from the soups (different bases, chicken, beef, pork or fresh seafood), the 'bun' aka vermicelli, and the appetizers are absolutely wholesome, fresh and delicious. The flavours are not typical of a Vietnamese place - they are distinct (milder) since the cuisine in this place is from North Vietnam. Lots of tarragon, sage, lemongrass vibes. The colonial French influence in the cuisine is reflected in the menu and the wine selection. My favourite items on the menu are : Deep fried springroll - yellow bean, taro root, just delish Pho Ga - chicken soup - I dare you to not finish the whole bowl and ask for more. Vermicelli with coconut chicken and lemongrass - I've seen people from 6 months old to 90 years old lick their fingers after this meal. Been a regular customer here since 2010 and must have spent a total of $3000 in this place since then, maybe more. Looking forward to the next $3000. Worth the trip on the Gerrard streetcar out East!!! read more

Delicious pho, with a generous portion of meat and a tasty broth that isn't too salty. My companion had a very appetizing spicy shrimp dish with coconut milk sauce. The servers were all very friendly. No complaints really: a solid choice for Vietnamese if you find yourself in the Gerrard/Broadview area. read more

Great spot. Get the flank and rare beef pho. The garlic bok choy is also amazing.

I had the lemongrass chicken with coconut milk and I forget what hubby had but I remember it being like, meh. My dish was really oily and heavy and the flavours just weren't there. We went back because we forgot we had gone there a couple of years earlier and miraculously I ordered the same thing without realizing! (I guess the description of the dish got me both times). I only recognized the dish when I began to eat it, and didn't like it the second time either. I am hopeful in saying that maybe we (both) didn't order the right things? I honestly cannot comprehend why this place gets such good reviews. read more

so far this is the our place to go for better quality pho, otherwise we head to Pho 88 @ Bamburgh nice small cozy atmosphere the candy that comes with the bill is yummy read more

Fantastic place! I had the spicy seafood pho and my partner had the rare beef pho. They were both really good! Light, flavourful, and a perfect summertime dinner. That being said, there's only one size so it might not be very filling for a hungrier person (but we were both alright). The service was also really good as well. The waiter was really caring and respectful. Also, get a glass of wine. The glasses are basically overflowing. read more

This place has amazing pho, you can really taste layers of flavour, and they don't mind doing substitutions. The mussels are probably my favorite, such rich broth. read more

The cha ka is a staple for me (I eat it weekly) and it seems to get better with repeated eatings as there are a variety of interpretations by the day and night staffs. One person prepares the fish crispier than the other and sometimes the balance of dill to onion to cilantro changes. One serves the vermicelli hot, the other cool - both lend unique pluses to this dish. Best with a simple steaming mug of tea. The only thing I miss about it, was that a couple years back they used to toast the peanuts a bit before adding - it jumped things up another couple notches in making this dish completely perfect. Each of the servers has a unique low-key but affectionate approach, and really make every effort to be sure you've enjoyed yourself. Brilliant. read more

We have been coming here for years. We love the food and what makes it even better is the service provided by Lucas. Always helpful and gracious to all his guests. Would highly recommend it read more

Hanoi 3 Seasons - people sitting at tables in a restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

when I saw a veggie pho on the menu at Hanoi 3 Seasons, I didn't have to think twice about what to order. To start, I had the vegetarian cold roll wrap, which was fresh and full of fresh herbs. Skip it if you are adverse to cilantro because it's full of it. My husband ordered the spring rolls and was not impressed with their taro filling, which I quite like so I ate most of them. Living in Leslieville I plan to return to this little spot, but if you're not from the area I don't know if it's worth making the trip. Unless, of course you are looking for vegetarian pho, which seems almost impossible to find in Toronto. read more

This review will be limited to respecting allergies. I have ordered take out 3 times from this place. Informing all 3 times I have shellfish allergy and particularly from fish sauce which contains shrimp shells. I was assured that they would remove the risk and omit fish sauce. Twice we received the food with sauce that contains fish sauce , that spilled on to the dish. This after we requested to have it removed even on the side. I can't comment on the food as I was unable to taste due to the shellfish allergy. Worse when confronted they only offered to make the dish again, but we would have come back to pick it up. I have no confidence that any of the food they prepared would respect an allergy. read more

small place. great service. very tasty food. the pho was a nice size with very good noodles and lots of meat. we ordered the chef special pho. spring rolls and shrimp rolls were awesome. great prices. i think we found our regular pho place. read more

The price let me be clear is on the high end of pho. It's over $10 and for Pho seems a bit high for Pho standards. With that being said, the broth and the condiments that comes with it is great quality. I really enjoyed the Pho and the service was very very good. Friendly and efficient. I will go here again for sure. read more

ive gotten take out here on two occasions, sampling the clams dish (spicy, delicious, inventive, really great) the spring rolls (better then average, great pnut sauce) and the spicy pork + vermicelli dish (wow is that ever good!)) im very happy with the food, the service, and the price, this is not something i would eat daily but very good vietnamese food. there are better pho places down the street, this place specializes in curry, bun, etc. read more

Great Vietnamese food at prices that won't break the bank. Located on Gerrard Street East, just across the bridge from Cabbagetown, this eatery has traditional Vietnamese and South Asian fare, a warm environment, and waitresses who can help you pick the right plate for your tastes. Although it's out there and far away from the hustle & bustle of Yonge Street, it's worth the trek to enjoy some of the best Vietnamese cuisine in all of Toronto. read more

very average in my opinion. I ordered the fried grouper with dill, which I was told is amazing but I was somewhat disappointed. nothing special about the pho here or any other dish we had. I believe the portions were small compared to other similar restaurants and a bit more pricey. read more

Hands down the best pho in town. I've had great meals at both locations. Delicious. For me worth the trip east. The places on Ossington don't compare. read more

I've been coming back for the ginger chicken with vermicelli for years. I really love it. I've pretty much tried everything on the menu and the good is great. Big portions. Very relaxed atmosphere. Not pretentious at all. Lucas is very welcoming and hospitable. read more

Quality food, smaller portions than some other Vietnamese restaurants but higher quality. My girlfriend LOVES this place. My palette differs from hers but I like the Pho here, and that's my ruler ... lots of places have bad pho, theirs is good. They have interesting seafood choices on the menu .. but again, my girlfriend is into that, not me! I just wanted to leave a positive review because we go here so often. Worth a visit. Four stars ... I only give five stars to my absolute favourite places. This place is up there, but not my all-time favourite. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Amazing Pho and friendly staff for Viet restaurant standards. Their portion size is great, amazing beef pho, chicken and fish. I also tried the spring rolls and the ginger chicken which was bomb as well. I have brought many friends and colleagues to this place and they all agree this is one of the best places in Toronto. Truly a diamond in an upcoming neighborhood! Enjoy! read more
