The food is amazing, if you want a drink then I suggest the lemon soda it's sooo good, the service was awesome and seems family owned which I can really appreciate. The ambience is nice with the windows facing the west for a nice sunset view. Would definitely recommend! And they play really awesome music read more

One of the most extensive menus I've ever seen. So many new and unique items such as goat soup and even goat hot pot! Best beef stew(bo kho?) I've had in Calgary so far (I haven't tried that many because I'm traumatized at how bad 1 place in the south was). It was very flavourful and rich. The meat was loaded and SO SUCCULENT!! the sate/chili oil was divine. 2 tsp transformed my bowl to the perfect amount of heat. My partner found the house special pho to be too sour. We both liked the beef stew more. Jackfruif shake was too sweet, we didn't finish it. Meal came w jasmine tea luckily. Overall I'd come back to try additional items! I think they had at least 150 different items as well as many desserts. read more

Place is great, food is amazing, never had a bad meal!! The staff is also extraordinary !!!! Very authentic and great prices

Did not expect much before I came as It is the only vietnamese restaurant open at 9am, food was ok, big portion is the plus. I did not receive full service as I had to pay at the counter but still gave generous tip. The thing threw me off was the lady tried to scam my USD that said same value as CAD, and refused to give back my USD nor let me use my credit card. I ended up paid $50 USD m for $50 CAD meat read more

Pho binh minh is a great restaurant. I try them before..@:) very nice restaurant to hang out with family and friends....thank so much....very good food and the best restaurant in calgary..I like it kkk.... read more

Best pho sate in town. These guys are consistent and oh so delicious. They are the only ones who give you different types of cactus mint in your pho. I don't know any other place that has pho sate or those special mint leaves. Simply amazing. I come here every time I go to Calgary. read more

Foods we're great esp. the special pho but they had the 2 of the rudest server i could ever imagine, it happened to me & my family many times,i had no choice because this is the closest to my home, i had no choice.Poor service! read more

I've been to this restaurant many times. For me, I usually only go here out of convenience or someone else picks the place. They have updated the menu since I last came here and they have quite an extensive vegetarian menu compared to other pho restaurants. The problem for me with this place is that it's never consistent and I think they use quite a bit of msg in their food because I'm always so thirsty after eating here. Sometimes the food is great and sometimes its just not. We had a large group on Christmas day and we were able to get a table for 13 people right away. I tried the veggie spring rolls and bun mam this time (special of the day) and it was pretty decent (a little on the sweet side) and the spring rolls were nothing special. read more

I usually have my Pho fix at home cause nothing will ever compare to mama's cooking. However, when I do eat pho out at restaurants I have to say my favorite place to goto is Pho Binh Minh which is located on 17th Ave SE the avenue of Pho restaurants basically. Unlike I lot of places this place always uses FRESH pho noodles which makes a remarkable difference in taste. The broth is done just right and the thinly sliced beef always tastes delicious. Not to forget about the other dishes available, definitely try out the Bun Cha Gio Thit Nuong (Vermecelli w/ Beef and Spring Rolls) and the rice dishes tastes great as well! read more

Hands down my favourite pho place ... ever!!! Love the taste of the beef (thinly sliced and very beefy), love the chewy softness of the noodles, the broth is amazing ... I always order the pho sate because its the best! I heart this place!!!! read more

Our usual fav pho place was closed at 8pm, so we yelped the nearest alternative and voila, this is where we ate! It was very good. The decor wasn't spectacular, but the food and prices were all that we could want. Yummy broth & good spring rolls. Hit the mark for our Pho cravings. read more

We as a hoard of 20 were invited by some Vietnamese doctors to supper at this Vietnamese restaurant one night after a performance. The doctors knew the owners and asked them to open the restaurant especially for our group because we arrived well after closing time. Our large gaggle and after hours entrance did not affect the great service and eventually delicious meal. Orders were taken per table, and drinks and appetizers were brought out in record time. There were mango and melon blended drinks, bubble teas, Chinese tea and Vietnamese coffee, pho and won ton, all made with perfection and not one lacking taste or presentation. The main courses came out in due course as well, noodles, lemon beef, dumplings, spring rolls etc. Food for 20, dishes were taken away when finished and soon our meal which I believe lasted for 2 hours was a success. I highly recommend this restaurant for big parties, I returned weeks later and had a meal by myself and it too was tasty and to my satisfaction. read more

Most defiantly love their rice orders, every time you drive by and smell the delicious meat cooking on the grill it makes you want to stop what your doing! The pho's soups is okay? I personally think rice would be best to eat when you're there. The price range is pretty fair, just an average asian cuisine. read more

Vietnamese food: economical, relatively healthy and absolutely delicious. What's not to love! Pho Binh Minh has been a longstanding no-frills restaurant in NE Calgary for decades now. Not much to look at, but they're known for their consistently delicious and authentic food in the Vietnamese community. Popular picks include the pho, vermicelli and pork chop with rice. You can never go wrong with a Vietnamese coffee or three bean drink on the side either. read more

They have a pretty decent vegetarian selection, which is mostly why I go there...and for their sate sauce. Delicious!

I would come here weekly back a few years. They've renovated and the place looks more open. The rice plate is decent, egg was over cooked and also slightly with the pork. I also had a bowl of pho at the same time, the broth is fragrant and a decent amount of meat is given. The service is good, everything came out quite quick and it was a nice visit. read more

their soup is one of my favourites! their broth isn't clear because it has flavour in it. often many pho restaurants put a lot of seasonings to make the broth and so it often comes out sort of clear. however, this place has broth that has the taste of meat. it is very yummy! read more

Unfortunately we went to another pho place just before this one during the Calgary Pho Down just down the street that we can't recommend this one (pretty standard). Stay tuned for the next review... read more

We ordered pick up here tonight through @SkipTheDishes #SkipTheDishesCalgary. Dennis went to pick up the food. I selected cash when I placed our order but Dennis only had his debit card. Instead of letting him pay debit they cancelled our order and threw out my food. The good folks at Skip the Dishes weren't able to convince the restaurant that money is money and after Dennis wasting 40 minutes in the parking lot and me online chatting with Skip the Dishes I got no dinner. Definitely never ordering there again and we probably won't use Skip the Dishes either they seem to have little influence on the restaurants they partner with. read more

In a nutshell, very good pho but not the best. The broth is flavorful but just not good enough for me to make the drive from downtown. Almost every pho shop on this side of town offers pretty much the same level of goodness. For those who live in the area, this place should be on your short list. read more

I used to come hear all the time but they changed the dish I always get and cheapened on the veggies. Service was always good and fast.

I have tried so many pho places in Calgary and I always find myself returning here. They are so polite, good and prompt service. Also, we never feel out of place here and the pho ga is really delicious. I also recommend getting the grilled chicken with steamed rice...very tasteful read more

The pho is whatever, just normal (not horrible but not great) but their rice dishes are so good. The pork chops are marinated deliciously. I only get their rice dishes, but if you get their pho you might be underwhelmed. read more

This is probably one of the worst places for pho in y books. It's neither economical nor value for your money, and most importantly not good quality at all. I was raised on homemade pho and my parents owned the Royal Swan Vietnamese restaurant so I can say I know what good pho should taste like and this doesn't even come close. I had the satay pho and any sate pho is suppose to have some peanuts, spices and heat. All this had was heat. It was as though they took their regular pho broth, added some chili flakes and called it satay. The spring rolls are the ugliest things I've ever seen, long skinny finger like rolls that were expensive too, $6.90 for 4 pieces. The small size pho was a kid size and it was $8.90. You would find better value and quality at Noodle World or Pho Pasteur. I felt kind of mad after eating here, you know the feeling you get when you get ripped off. Don't even get me started on their rare done beef noodle soup, the amount of meat they give you is so small, and it's thinly sliced frozen beef that is cooked in the microwave before they pour on the broth. It looks different when the hot broth is poured on and cooks the meat. I would never come back here again, and the only reason we came because my father in law is vegetarian and they have some vegetarian dishes. They have some at Noodle World too, so next time we will go there. read more

Used to be our go to for pho, but recently after their reno?, prices have gone up which would have been ok, but portions have gone down - not ok. Like others have said they are really stingy w meat - my husband ordered the extra large the amount of meat in bowl was pitiful and so was my large and I am not a big meat eater by any standards. Service is sometimes nice, disinterested to almost hostile depending on the server, which again we don't really mind as long as we get a good bowl of pho, and their broth one of the better ones in Calgary. At last I have to find new go to in my neck of the wood. read more

Very bad service...there were a couple of tables available but we stood there for 5mins...the waiters (4 all together) walked by and saw us. No one stopped and asked. We ended up leaving the restaurant...the just looked at us and see us go....Wanted to give one star but two stars for ok pho....never come back again... read more

I LOVE this place! Great value for super flavourful food! My fave... Rice vermecilli with pork chop and spring rolls. Nummy!

Simply put, its the best pho short of travelling to Vietnam. The broth is beyond delicious and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Love!!

Favourite pho stop in Calgary. Always consistent always generous portions always great service
