Has some outdoors seating too. Also have a big projection screen. Pretty busy on a Friday evening. We got there a little early for dinner so didn't need to wait, but there was definitely a wait when we were done. Gender-neutral bathroom stalls with a common handwashing area. Menu is small, two sides of one sheet, plus one more with a few specials. We got their big appetizer combo platter, and 3 different bowls of pho. Their pho only comes in one size which is large, and you get a pretty large bowl. I got the Tuan's special pho which has a runny egg yolk along with a lot of beef. The pho is pretty tasty. Their soup base is a bit thicker and robust than other pho places. The appetizer platter is also huge, and had a variety of rolls, grilled meats, and also some salad and noodles. Total was about $100 before tip and we had a fair bit of leftovers. There was a fly and mosquito flying around the table. Probably flew in from the outdoor seating area.

this space brings back a little nostalgia. it used to be one of our go to spots for dim sum when…read moreit was south ocean. today, it's home to pho anh vu, an ontario based vietnamese chain that has made its way to richmond on garden city road. the dining room is spacious, bright, and inviting, with plenty of tables for both small and larger groups. two cherry blossom trees wrapped in warm lights immediately caught my eye, while tropical murals and woven basket pendant lights add warmth and character to the space. it feels modern, comfortable, and much brighter than i remember. i ordered the bun thit nuong cha gio, a generous bowl of vermicelli topped with smoky grilled pork, a crispy spring roll, fresh herbs, cucumber, bean sprouts, crushed peanuts, and a side of fish sauce to pour over everything. the grilled pork had a beautiful caramelized char, while the spring roll added a satisfying crunch and extra layer of texture. my partner ordered the com ga nuong, featuring two pieces of grilled chicken over broken rice with a light salad and a side of house fish sauce. the chicken was juicy with nicely charred grill marks, and the broken rice did a great job soaking up all the savoury flavours. don't skip the pickled garlic on the table. it adds a bright, tangy kick that cuts through the richness of the grilled meats and gives each bite a little extra pop. both dishes were generous, filling, and packed with flavour. if i had one observation, it would be that the seasoning leaned a little on the salty side, and i found myself reaching for my water more than once. the menu is more focused than many vietnamese restaurants. if you're hoping for favourites like banh mi, banh xeo, or banh khot, you'll need to look elsewhere. the drink selection is fairly limited as well, so the emphasis here is clearly on pho, vermicelli bowls, broken rice, and a handful of classic vietnamese comfort dishes. a couple of things worth knowing before you go: the restaurant accepts cash or debit only, so leave the credit card in your wallet. if you're visiting after 6:00 pm, complimentary parking is available, just remember to register your licence plate at the tablet near the entrance before you sit down. overall, pho anh vu serves satisfying vietnamese comfort food in a beautifully refreshed space. while i still have fond memories of south ocean, it's nice to see this location begin a new chapter. if you're craving grilled meats, vermicelli bowls, broken rice, or a comforting bowl of pho, it's worth adding to your list.

The broth is so flavorful and the beef is always fall-off-the-bone tender. Just a heads up, they do run out of the ribs so try to get here early if you would like to try it. The last couple of times we've come, the beef ribs were a bit smaller than they used to be, but they were awesome about making up for it. Last visit they threw in an extra rib, and today they gave us this massive extra bone loaded with tendon. I loved it. My wife was too shy to use her hands to eat it, so hey, bonus piece for me! Aside from the food, the service here is amazing. Everyone is super attentive and friendly. The vibe is really comforting to, it's way more spacious than your typical cramped pho restaurant. Parking is free during lunch, but you have to register your car if you're here after 6pm. It's cash or debit only.

Excellent service, interior decor, but most of all, unique and awesome food. Some unique items include soft shell crab banh mi and salt and pepper squid - which was really good. Highlights: - mini crepes. They are done using this special pan made of 7 mini cupcake sized holes, it is so Insta worthy. They taste amazing too. Crunchy, excellent flavour, goes super well with fish sauce. - cha gio. Not too crunchy, just right. Excellent texture. - bun rieu. I love this crab meat tomato soup and they do a really good job of it. A big chunk of crab on top. - the pho was really good and the presentation second to none. - salads.

Food: I don't usually eat Vietnamese/Cambodian cuisine, but…read moremy friend took me here so I decided to give it a try. The food was a bit pricey, but the dishes were very authentic and each tasted delicious in its own way. Many dishes come with a sauce (depending on what you order) and has big portions, so I'd recommend doing family style so that you can try more dishes. Would definitely come back again if I'm ever craving Vietnamese/Cambodian food in Vancouver! Service: Service was a bit slow - we didn't receive our drinks until we were halfway done eating, even though we ordered in the beginning before we ordered the food. It was a bit chaotic calling a server if you have any questions or want to change your order, since there's no one server assigned to each table. Each dish was brought out by different waiters/servers, so it wasn't the most organized since it takes a while to get any worker's attention. Ambiance: Arrived around 11am and it was pretty crowded/full. There was a short line but the wait wasn't long. Got seated within 10-15 minutes.
