    Peanut beef satay soup
    Vanessa M.

    Ok seriously, this place used to be a hole in the wall. They renovated and I saw an Instagram story about their peanut pho soup. We had salad rolls, peanut pho satay soup and a vermicelli bowl with shrimp/beef/chicken The good was really good, and tasted really fresh, highly, recommend!

    We had a few people in our group that were craving pho. We came here, and it definitely hit the spot! The fresh spring rolls were good. The pho broth was flavorful and delicious. My vermicelli bowl with gluten free spring rolls was also amazing. Overall, a good location with parking across the street.

    Great service friendly staff. Will come back when I'm back in town. The ingredients were fresh and made to order. The portions were great for the price too!

    Satay Chicken Vermicelli and Satay Beef Pho
    Lucy S.

    Had a hankering for Bun last week and nothing could stand in my way. One of the nice things about living downtown is you're never more than a quick trip away from whatever you're craving. Especially when Chinatown is only a short stroll away. Walks by the river from the West to East end of downtown is one of my favourite past times, especially during lockdown--it's kept me sane! Another awesome perk is being able to scope out all the food spots along the way, which is how we stumbled upon Pho City. RATING: 8/10 - Pho City Bun is my thing when it comes to ordering Vietnamese. It's really hard to be disappointed with a big bowl of noodles and deep fried spring rolls. I don't know if it was because it was International Women's Day or because they had just recently opened, but we received two complimentary spring rolls upon our arrival which was a nice touch. They were crispy as can be and I loved the pork flavour. I ordered the Satay Chicken Vermicelli and it definitely hit the spot- beautifully presented, healthy portions, and plenty of meat, veggies and spring rolls. I'd like to have seen more sauce and spice from my satay chicken. My BF had the Satay Beef Pho and he slurped it all up. I had a sip of the broth and it had a great nutty flavor. The staff were extremely attentive and you could tell they were eager to leave a good impression. Pho City left me stuffed and my Bun cravings satisfied. If you're looking for lunch or dinner on your next walk along the river, make sure to stop by.

    Actual bull amount is $40.90 but waitress put her own tip amount and press OK. And it was 20%... Extremely unethical..

    My sister said she wanted ramen. So I gave her the ok to pick a restaurant and she told me about…read moreWakado Ramen. Wakado happened to be near where I lived so it was definitely a go. We ordered the chicken karaange to share $6.50. I got the Miso Ramen $15.95 My sister got the Tonkotsu Shio Ramen $14.95 Sister said the prices are comparable to Vancouver. The prices are definitely at the higher end. She also claims that the bowls are bigger than ramen in Vancouver. I was like ok. So I really liked the miso soup. It was very flavorful.

    During our stay in Calgary, we've been trying to find a different type of food each day, and of…read morecourse I couldn't skip ramen. Wakado Ramen was within walking distance from us, so we decided to give it a try. The restaurant is located on the first floor of a commercial complex with very little foot traffic, and to be honest, I was a little skeptical at first. Surprisingly, the ramen here was actually pretty good! We ordered the recommended two-person set and chose the Chili Goma Ramen, Tonkotsu Shio Ramen, and a plate of gyoza. I had the Chili Goma Ramen, and I was very satisfied with it. The strong, rich aroma of Sichuan peppercorn immediately reminded me of Sichuan Tan Tan Men, but it was blended with goma-style sesame sauce, which softened and balanced the flavor nicely. I thought that was a clever and enjoyable way to present the ramen. The broth was thick and rich, with a slightly bubbly texture on top and plenty of chopped scallions -- visually, always a good sign for the style of ramen I personally enjoy. The flavor was very good as well. The bamboo shoots were nicely marinated: soft, but still with a bit of crunch, turning into little bites of flavorful vegetables after a few chews. The soft-boiled egg was also well executed; I devoured it in one bite and was rewarded with a rich, flavorful mouthful. My only food-related complaint would probably be the noodle texture. The noodles were on the softer, looser side, closer to the texture of instant noodles that require boiling, rather than the firmer, chewier texture I usually prefer at ramen shops. I know some people may actually enjoy that softer noodle style, so I wouldn't say it was objectively bad, but for me, it was the one imperfection in an otherwise enjoyable bowl. The gyoza looked similar to frozen Ajinomoto-style gyoza, so I honestly didn't feel too excited to try it. Since gyoza isn't too difficult to make fresh, that left a bit of a question mark for me. My main complaint was the service. The restaurant only had two occupied tables at the time, but after we were given the menu, we still waited around 18 minutes without anyone checking back or explaining the meal sets. I eventually walked toward the server and finally caught their attention while the server was chatting with coworkers. The service also felt minimal throughout the meal, with items placed on the table without much communication. I understand most items were obvious, but even a simple "Here is your ****" would have felt much more welcoming than placing items on the table without saying anything. A little more attentiveness would have made the overall experience much better. Overall, the ramen itself was better than I expected, especially the Chili Goma Ramen, which I genuinely enjoyed. But the service experience and the gyoza made the visit feel less polished than it could have been.

    Between working in the Nexen building, and now the Husky tower, I've grabbed lunch from Apple…read morelikely a hundred times or more. It's easy to not even know it's there, if you are traversing the Plus 15's between the two buildings -- you need to sidestep through the doors of "First Alberta Place," and it will be sitting in the back corner: one wall a soup and sandwich counter, and one wall a Chinese buffet. There's nothing here to "wow" you: hand written information on the wall. A pretty limited selection of sandwich toppings. Not a lot of variety of soups day to day. Scowls. And most importantly, they take cash only (I've been burned by this at the register once or twice when I forgot). But you can get a pretty damn cheap lunch here. Seriously -- for the longest time, the large soup was two bucks (or maybe it was even less)? On days where I forgot my wallet and thought I'd starve to death, Apple bailed me out with their two dollar soup (that much change inevitably kicking around my desk and amongst my pocket lint). And you serve the soup yourself, so you can make it as "hearty" as you wish (to hell with the stragglers showing up late -- they can have broth). I was there a moment ago, and soup has gone up to $2.65. It was around $2.00 in 2006 when I started going. Not a bad increase, and still plenty cheap. BLT's were $3.95 today You get the idea: cheaper lunch than what you can brown bag.
