    I ordered takeout from here for a late Friday night dinner. I was surprised there were still some folks dining at 10 pm when I came to pick up my food. It's a small space, so I'm sure it gets crowded during normal dining hours. I tried two items: #22 Banh beo Hai Phong (Hai Phong Vietnamese pork cake) for $10.50 - also comes with 3 meatballs on the side. I've never had anything quite like this before, but I wasn't a huge fan as I personally thought the layer of steamed rice flour was too thick. Also was a bit bland for me. #6 Banh da cua (crab meat noodle soup) for $18.50 - the flavor of the broth was really good especially with the gooey crab bits, but the noodles were a bit hard. I think this is because I got it for takeout and the broth was only lukewarm by the time I ate, so it wasn't hot enough to continue cooking the noodles. Overall I thought the food was pretty good. Only wish I wasn't in a rush and could take the time to slowly eat at the restaurant instead of getting it to go, which is never my preference for noodle soups.

    Relatively new Vietnamese place next to, well, another Vietnamese place. Really liking this stretch of Victoria. Parking is plentiful on Victoria, as well as the side streets. The inside is pretty dated with blank walls and faux wood panelling. Feels like someone's living room. The tables are made of log slices. Looks cool, except they seem to have warped. The surfaces aren't flat. Staff are friendly. Looks like a family run place. I had the fish cake bun. Good flavour. Decent amount of meat. Lots of green onions. Served with bean sprouts, cilantro, and lettuce. Quite tasty. This place has quite a decent variety of other dishes as well. Guess I'll have to come back at some point. Recommended.

    No frills northern Vietnamese place. $6 for a Vietnamese sub?! I had my doubts but this bahn mi was so yummy!! The only thing is there are no greens inside, so I had to steal cilantro from my friends pho. The bread was perfectly toasted and super buttery. Very filling and definitely worth it. Pork dumpling - it was more dumpling than filling, which made it hard to finish, but the filling was tasty. Nice to see some less common menu items. I'd come back to try other dishes!

    First time trying Hoa Phuong Do, another Northern Vietnamese spot in town. We shared a nem cua bien ($8.00), bun mang vit ($19.00) and bun oc ($17.00). The crab spring rolls were tasty but tiny. Nuoc cham was well balanced. Both broths were clean, leaning towards the lighter side. Duck noodle soup with bamboo shoot was solid. Good portion of duck (on a separate dish) and the side dipping sauce was addictively good. The escargot had a strong, chewy bite. Really enjoyed the noodles in this one along with the pork hock and vegetable starch. Will be back to try a couple more dishes.

    I really like this spot - they offer Northern Vietnamese style dishes that I haven't been able to find anywhere else, which really got me hyped for my upcoming trip to Hanoi. We swung by one evening after my lash appointment and they had twenty minutes until close. The owner was kind enough to accommodate us (unlike Hoang Yen, who shooed us away and locked their door lol). It's brightly lit, clean, and lively, with Vietnamese travel videos broadcasting on their big TV. In addition to their regular menu, they have rotating daily specials featured on their board I haven't seen anywhere else. We got the Bun Oc and Bun Ca Cay, as well as the Banh Gio to share as per the owner's recommendation. I really liked the broth in the Bun Oc - it had nice depth and flavour with a little bit of heat, pairing nicely with the crunchy snails. My boyfriend also really enjoyed his dish, which was more dill and tomato dominant. Both dishes were still light and easy on the stomach. The Banh Gio was also really tasty. We liked the wood ear and pork filling, similar to what you'd find in a banh cuon but the cake texture was almost like a Chinese radish cake. It paired perfectly with their warm fish sauce that had some of the juiciest pork meatballs I've ever had. Will definitely be back to try out that roasted quail and Banh Da Cua they're known for!

    The new Vietnamese spots on Victoria Drive keep on opening up, fast and furious style. The latest spot is Hoa Phuong Do Restaurant, which specializes in Northern Vietnamese food. They're a few doors down from Chau Veggie Express. We dropped in on a packed Thursday (around 12:30pm). It was all Vietnamese people dining in, always a good sign. Service is efficient and our food came quickly (under 10 minutes). There's only 6 items on the menu (along with two drink options). Small, tight menu. - Cold tea - light and refreshing. Complimented the food nicely. - Herbs - bean sprouts, lettuce and lime wedges. - Banh da cua (#5) ($16.00) - noodles were soft and slightly clumpy. Crab cakes and the bo la lot were satisfying. Broth had a decent depth but is on the light side. - Bun ca cay (#4) ($16.00) - good portion of fish but it's dry. The broth is light and subtle. Noodles are the thin, soft kind that you usually get with bun rieu. - Bun cha quat (#6) ($16.00) - R enjoyed it. I had a piece of the pork, which was well marinated and tender. HPD is another solid Northern Vietnamese spot.

    Seemed like a very authentic Northern Viet restaurant and the service was really friendly. We got two soups, the highly raved about crab noodle and rice cake vermicelli. We were hoping to try the duck soup, but there was a shortage of duck at the time and they weren't offering it :( Both were really tasty regardless. There was only one size which is probably closer to a medium, but they do pack a fair bit of protein in. Tad pricey than I'm used to for Viet food at around $16 each, and had a small menu. I'd recommend to give it a try if you're looking for something different than your typical pho!

    HIDDEN GEM! Well it's true what they say. The best pho restaurants usually have a number in the…read morename. And I can say this is true across America and Canada. Cali girl here *wave* I tried a bunch of different places but couldn't really say any was a favorite. I finally asked my nail tech what her favorite place was and she recommended Pho 37 and she was not wrong. Then I remembered that my nail tech will never leave me astray. I only had to try their pho once to know, THIS IS IT. Then I had to get their Bun Bo Hue, just tomake sure. The triple crown will be their Banh Mi, which I'm excited to try next but so far 5 stars all the way. Best Pho broth and the best Bun Bo Hue that I've found so far in the downtown Vancouver area. I'm sure as you fan outside of the city limits that there are just as good options but I've finally found my go to spot close to work and home after 3 months of living here. A plus plus is the huge portions but I also have to commend the meat to noodle ratio is just perfect. This is a cute little spot on Robson. Don't sleep on this one, ladies and gents. Dine in or dining out, don't forget to ask for the chilli garlic oil and garlic vinegar on the side. These condiments will level up any dish!

    I stopped in around 5:30 p.m. on a Sunday, and nearly every table was full. Even with the crowd, I…read morewas seated right away. The only small issue was that it took a little while before someone came to take my order, and I eventually had to wave someone over. It wasn't a big deal, though, especially considering how busy they were. The portions here are huge, especially for the price. The broth was a little sweeter than I personally prefer, but it was very clean, clear, and flavorful. This is what I look for in a good bowl of pho. The noodles were cooked perfectly and had a nice soft texture. I ordered a combination bowl. My only suggestion would be a bit more of tripe and tendon. The tripe was a little sparse, and I honestly didn't realize I had tendon until I was almost finished with the bowl. But I like those, and not a lot of people do. Despite the restaurant being packed, the staff was stayed attentive, kept food coming out quickly, and did a great job taking care of everyone. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming. There was a nice mix of people. Some quietly watching videos on their phones, others catching up over conversation. It felt like the kind of neighborhood spot that attracts everyone. Overall, this is a convenient, affordable place with good pho and generous portions. If I'm in the area again, I'd definitely come back. .

    Absolutely delicious food; fast, friendly service, can't fault it! We discovered Pho Goodness at…read more1150 Davie Street yesterday and are we glad we did! Went in for lunch with my granddaughter, both of us fans of Vietnamese food. Ordered Green Papaya Salad ($12), Lemongrass Chicken on Vermicelli with one spring roll ($17), one lime soda ($6.50) and one pop ($3). Food arrived within minutes of ordering. Portions were very generous. The salad was perfect with everything very fresh, as it should be but often isn't in some places. Plump prawns and the scent and taste of basil was prominent. Delicious! The lemongrass chicken (we ordered extra chicken) with a spring roll was also very generous. We did not finish it between the two of us. Again, all was fresh, tasty and hot. This is one of our standard orders and Pho Goodness did not disappoint. Granddaughter declared it better than at our regular favourite, and Pho Goodness is around the corner from her home and not a bus ride out to Kingsway! Service was friendly and responsive. We asked that the volume be turned off on the massive TV over our heads (which nobody was watching) (it was), requested a glass for the pop and immediately received a tumbler full of ice. Lovely. We have found a new favourite on Davie Street, a true foodie heaven with a collection of independent restaurants of many ethnicities available. We will return to Pho Goodness when the urge for Vietnamese food strikes again.

My wife and I stopped in for dinner one evening and each ordered the aforementioned noodle soup--she got a small ($11.75 plus tax) and I got a regular ($12.75 plus tax). We also got an order of salad rolls ($7.50 plus tax), which comes with 2 rolls. The rolls came quite late. They were pretty standard, coming with fried tofu, vermicelli, and lettuce. The peanut dipping sauce was on the liquidy, salty soy sauce side of things -- I wish it were creamier and less salty. 3/5 The soups were decent. The broth was peppery, with some nice, gentle spices detectable in there. I asked for a side of chili oil, which helped amplify the broth. You get a generous portion of noodles, fried tofu, and vegetables (broccoli, bok choy, carrot). Unfortunately the veggies were quite overcooked -- the broccoli was almost soggy, so were the carrots and bok choy. 3/5 All in all, middle-of-the-road veggie pho. The broth is pleasant. The veggies were overcooked, but plentiful and nicely chosen. Decent place for veggie pho.
