I've heard of Pho Metro before, but this is the first time I've actually gotten a chance to eat here, and boy have I been missing out! They had a separate menu for curry options, and that I'm always drawn to a good curry. This stir fry was so flavourful and sweet and spicy at once. It was the perfect portion size for me, and I was able to bring some home to enjoy for another meal. I definitely plan on returning and trying new dishes, because there's soooo many good options to pick from. There is an hour seating limit as it gets quite busy, yet the busyness of the restaurant didn't make us feel cramped at all. It had a personal and homey feel to it with the walls covered in all sorts of drawings. Overall, this was a great experience! I'm looking forward to coming again. read more

Pho Metro - Chicken Curry Stir Fry - Vietnamese Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Overall rating: 4.2/5 A neighbourhood favourite for pho! This place is usually busy, but we were able to get seated fairly quickly even on the weekend. A few highlights from my recent visit: - The manager at the cashier is super friendly! - Food (especially pho) comes out quickly, tasty, & satisfying. The broth is rich though looks unassuming at first. Portions are reasonable and balanced, meaning that you're not getting a few slices of beef to a large amount of noodles. - Price wise, it's reasonable (though I wouldn't say it's the cheapest pho in the area, but the quality is there!). Note that they do have a 1hr seating time limit, which I appreciate because it probably helps shorten the wait time :) read more

This is my usual go to place for pho whether it is to order take out or done in. If you pay cash there is a 10% discount. Also they have a membership rewards. I have gone here enough times to score a free large grilled beef spring rolls. My typical P1 large is my go to dish. This is the pho soup with different kinds of beef. There service is also very efficient which makes sense because pho broth needs to be consumed hot. My daughter is not always a fan of pho so we sometimes get the pad Thai. The pad Thai dish here is also good too even though pad Thai is not a Vietnamese dish. I recommend people give this place a try if you are in the area. read more

I can't believe this opened for so long and it was only my first time coming here. Glad they opened up another pho restaurant in north Markham! The decor was pretty cute and interesting, there were pokemon legos and origami around the restaurant. It gave quite a cozy vibe. I tried the grilled lemongrass and springroll with vermicelli. I also got a cooked beef flank and beef meatballs noodle soup with no onions and cilantro. It tasted just okay. The portions were quite small for the prices. Overall the food was mediocre, I would still come back as it's a bit better than the other pho places in the area. read more

Reasonably priced delish and authentic. This place can't miss Have never eaten in but takeout is 10/10 read more

This Pho metro is small and when we went - it was packed. Had to wait for a bit but it gave us time to look at the interesting decor. Drawings from kids cover the wall, and in our booth, it had some local artist's works. It was cute and made it feel really mom and pop. Service was fast, and food came out quick. Wife found a hair in her chicken fried rice, but whatever- didn't make a deal about it. My pho was a large portion, tons of meat, and loved the selection of noodle. Only negative on the pho was the broth was not super hot, and it lacked flavour...almost felt watered down. More of a 3.75/5 for the temp and lack of flavour...but any bowl of pho is good no matter what. read more

We went here because Chrisly Cafe next door had a long wait queue. It's a busy pho restaurant on a Saturday morning, server was polite and attentive, we were served tea immediately after seated. Food taste and portion size were mediocre, and overall mediocre as well. You'll get 10% discount if pay by cash. Won't mind to come again. read more

Things I like about this place - Hot, flavorful beef broth - thin, silky fresh rice noodles - seats are comfortable - service is friendly - plenty of bean sprouts - 10% discount when paying cash Things I don't like: - chicken wings are small for the price. You don't even get the full wings but only the drums and flats. - raw beef are not raw, they are tiny medium well beef slices (pretty disappointing imo) - you don't get a full or even half beef balls but quarter beef balls - you can't get white onions without having green onions mixed in (not a biggie but as a person who don't eat green onions, it's something I noticed) read more

Tried the large house special (around $17) and the lemongrass chicken rolls. Portion for the pho is good but it is a bit pricey. The rolls were really good. The pho was good too; the broth isn't as strong as other places, and the meat is fresh. I think the noodles were a bit overcooked however. Service is good and there is a 10% cash discount. read more

I ordered a grilled pork/Vietnamese sausage/spring roll vermicelli for take out. My order was ready in quick 20 minutes on the weekend. Though the food wasn't great, I'm very glad to see the same friendly FOH staff and that they're continuing to take a cautious and responsible approach to doing business during covid. They continue to mask and require vaccine passports. The vermicelli dish was a decent portion size with tender pork and homemade nem nuong. However, I found the pork to be lacking in lemongrass flavour and the nem nuong could be cooked a little longer or at a higher temp for more grill flavour. But most importantly, the nuoc cham sauce was very bland and the flavour tasted closer to water than fish sauce or vinegar. Overall, I found the food to be rather inconsistent the last few times I've visited. Despite this, you can count on really good service here. Food is 2* but bumping to 3* for service. read more

Love the Scarborough location, so wanted to try out the Markham one too. Grabbed takeout lunch here, during COVID times. It can get quite busy, even on a weekday for lunch, with lots of other orders being packed when I went. Ordered B8 - Grilled Chicken/Pork, Spring Roll Bun (Vermicelli). Food was well packed, and meat was tasty. Crispy Spring Roll. read more

It took me five years to return to this pho location. In fact, I don't even remember coming here previously! Perhaps it was a good idea to come back. The food portions are enormous now! You are getting great quality food for a great and solid price. You are looking at $16 a large pho, is that even possible this day and age? I also really like how they have a rewards program and a student discount. I definitely signed up. If I was a student who attended the high school next door, this meal would be a solid option! It was affordable and hearty. Anyway, we ordered a pho and vermicelli, it was way more than we could finish for two adults. I don't disagree completely with my previous review though, the beef slices are thin and there wasn't lot of tripe. They gave loads of beef in the vermicelli bowl though, so now I wonder if it was just dependent on the chef? Anyway, I had a great experience here and will be returning! read more

3.5. This is/was one of our favorite places to have a late lunch. It's been a couple of months. It's basically good but fast paced. Service is good but no longer friendly. The hustle of a busy, local restaurant which gave it a wonderful ambiance is gone. Pho is very good and the usual accompaniments enhance the broth. I have always had a medium but was very hungry and decided to try the large. I could not finish it and ended up taking the leftovers home, which I never do. I will do this in the future. It reheats well. Price points are good and if you get there after the lunch rush, seating is good. read more

Dinner for one! Nice cozy establishment. Only complaint... gave me almost all drummettes with only one flat! Food is good but has room for improvements, but the great service, especially from the friendly front counter dude, made the experience good. One other thing, the bun rieu is slightly lacking the richness that you would expect from the Scarborough location; not sure if it's a franchise or a different restaurant altogether, but I hope they will work on improving since I would like to see them succeed due to their customer service level. Also, coffee was lovely; and the fact that the front counter dude decided to ask me to ensure I know the coffee is strong for this time of night was very considerate read more

Pho Metro is a combination of service, speed, portion and deliciousness! Super reliable place for consistent appetizers, pho and specialty noodle soups. Like other Vietnamese restaurants, Pho Metro's menu is like a small booklet with pages of regional Vietnamese dishes. Their soup is always fragrant and pipping hot (even delivery/takeout). It's also pretty light. Their packaging for takeout is very well thought-out. Noodles are separated with wax paper inside takeout boxes. They updated their rewards program: all your points remain and key tags are available too. Menu is available online. Favorites: Grilled Pork/Chicken/Beef Fresh Spring Rolls, Bun Bo Hue, Grilled Chicken Pho, Thai Iced Tea read more

I've been to many Pho restaurants, and I have to say, this particular Pho Metro made a great impression on me. We came on a Saturday dinner, and was greeted by the host who was very welcoming. After getting seated, our server (a young girl in glasses) was also very friendly and welcoming. Compared to many Pho restaurants I've visited, the workers aren't generally that caring and wouldn't try to strike a conversation with you. It definitely made my night a lot better with the friendly atmosphere the restaurant had. Ordering was very simple, scan the code to access the PDF menu online. We ordered one large P1 & small P7, which didn't take too long to arrive. The large portion was probably one of the biggest I've seen around. As for the small, I liked the portion bc generally I can't finish one - so I end up wasting food. However, I was able to finish this small size. The soup had a very clean taste, and the noodles were thin (perfect for me). The ingredients overall tasted fresh Would definitely recommend visiting them :) read more

Firstly, felt super safe as it is only restaurant in Sept 2022 that still has a vaccine mandate and they bring over a glass barrier for your table after you have ordered! Food is amazing, Bun Rieu broth was flavourful. Customer service was top notch, we were greeted well and servers always checked in with us. Definitely will come back to this location again! read more

The service was a bit slow where one person in our party had to wait for a long time for her food. Her food didn't come until the others were half way thru their meal. The server also didn't bring the correct number of water for us at the beginning and we need to ask a few times. Otherwise, the food was good. read more

I got to say 1 star is for waitress was very polite and that's it!! I walked in and they still ask for vaccine passport and it's not mandatory. I ask the owner is it mandatory now and he said they have right to ask still and I said I have the right to refuse. I gave it to him because he knows my friend that was with me. Then he said it's for safety of my staff. Safety for my staff??? Lol this is the dumbest answer I have ever heard if you know anything about vaccine and transmission. The price is insane expensive!! A small beef noodle for $16.50. Never will go there again!!! read more

By far one of the best BBH I have ever had. I haven't had anything else but the BBH noodle soup but so far what I've had is freaking amazing. It's spicy, savory, beefy and opens your appetite. not overly spicy- someone who doesn't have high spice tolerance would be able to tolerate this. I've been looking for a good BBH for a long time and I think I finally found my go to spot. They're also very generous with the meat and ham slices. In addition the staff is also the kindest in sweetest people ever. Always serving you with a warm smile. read more

Is Markham Pho standards different than the ones in Vaughan and Richmond Hill? Have I been spoiled or just lucky, as this place had good ratings from Yelp friends so I wanted to give it a try on a cold winter day. Fresh herb & veggie side: 2 lime wedges, bean sprouts, and branch of Thai basil this is the minimum but it was all fresh. Avocado milk shake: $4.75! For a tall sized Starbucks to go cup, more milk than fruit. Still tasty but not like other places where you can turn your cup upside down, the thickness and richness wasn't there. Tom yum seafood noodles: A sweeter spice missing the other elements of heat and fish sauce but very flavorful and tasty nevertheless. Fish balls somehow tasted dried inside, never had that before but I'm not sick the next day so dunno what happened there, shrimp a tad over cooked but noodles were good. Pho special: Broth very tasty and flavorful, meat was more medium than rare, soft enough and comparable. The ambience on a weekday lunch was very sad, very dim lighting, no music, just background noise of clanking China and chopsticks, slurping of noodles and cp24 on the tv. The vibe could have been easily changed with some background music and better lighting. Service was fast and more friendly than most pho places and they take vicinity card fo read more

Warm and cozy place for good authentic pho. Service is the best. Always greeted with smile and happiness.

This place has THE BEST Vietnamese coffee ever. Depending on how sweet you like it, you can ask them for less condensed milk. I love it because it's pretty much the only restaurant with coffee that actually wakes me up. Their noodles are the a little on the small size but their broth is perfect - flavorful. However, I would like to see a little more meat in it. Their rice paper rolls are absolutely to die for - especially the one with beef! Absolute heaven. There's a rice dish - C1 (I forgot the name of the dish), but it's got chicken, pork, beef, a bit of pig skin, and a sunny side up egg :) - definitely VERY very, very, good!! On a side note, they've also opened a store in Hong Kong because of how delicious their noodles are!!! read more

Pho Metro is by far the best place to get Vietnamese food in Markham! When you first walk in it looks like your average restaurant but when I say the food is to die for I mean it! One of the staff members Joe, is an amazing guy! He is kind, respectful, helpful and honestly one of the best guys I've ever met! The first time I went I was with family and Joe remembered us every time after! The atmosphere is pho-nomenal, great music great people and great food! You can even draw or doodle and get it up on their wall! Oh and you didn't hear this from me but, ask for their mango smoothie! It rocks!!! read more

The staff here are very friendly. I've been here a couple times during the years 2014-2018. My boyfriend and I used to go to the school next to the plaza; he often ate here for lunch. We were seated and served fairly quickly. Price was reasonable for a filling lunch. Overall, would recommend if you're looking for some good pho and great service. read more

The atmosphere feels like they're trying to reproduce an oldschool vibe with its jazzy music and simple chandeliers and light shades. It's well maintained. The food is pretty good, and service was fast and made sure we had everything we needed. Ordered the house special pho. read more

Excellent service, friendly staff. They also accept credit card which is good cuz i didn't bring cash that day lol

3.5 Pho broth was OK, not that flavourful in my opinion. I think they are not that consistent with portion and the amount of toppings in my pho. Range from small to good portion size or lots of meat to little meat in my pho. Also tried a side of small spring rolls. $2.50 for a spring roll. Good but kinda expensive. Bun Rieu was really good. Flavour of the broth was nice and generous amount of toppings. The crab meatballs had a more fishy taste that I didn't really mind. Grilled chicken and egg. Came with rice and this was amazing. Grilled meat so flavourful and tender! Service is average. The place is spacious with many tables. Good prices for the mains if you're looking for a quick eat. Good pho place in Markham! read more

Great noodles at great value. If you run out of food at home, this is a great solution. Doesn't stand out though from others like Pho88 in Toronto but is at par. It doesn't have our favourite sate flavour which pho88 has. At any rate, their other popular choices are very good and won't disappoint. read more

Pretty nice Vietnamese restaurant in this neighbourhood. Services are friendly and great. They may not have the best pho in town, but I still like their pho. Pho is always a great comfort food!! They provide raw bean sprouts or cooked bean sprouts for your pho. Other pho restaurants only give me raw bean sprouts. And the cooked bean sprouts matched so well with their pho, worth to try! My favourite dish here is their bun (vermicelli with grilled meat). And I love their grilled chicken bun!!! Spring roll is also my favourite dish, too. However their spring roll is a bit skinny... If you have vicinity rewards card, remember to join their loyalty program :-) read more

Surprised to find another staple Viet spot I will be visitting!! I feel like so many viet places have gone down hill, so coming here with my family, I was not expecting much. That just makes it all the better to find you love the food!! I had the vermicelli. They didn't come with the toppings I normally would want so I tried the grilled beef with spring rolls. It was really good and the noodles were bouncy and warm. I love that the ratio of veggies to noodles made sense so you had a nice mix per bite. Some places give you too much of the noodles or of the veggies and it's a bit unsettling haha. The grilled meat had a lot of good flavour so I was really happy with it. My mom got the same dish but with Pork and that was really good as well. My dad ordered the crab soup base noodles and it was not bad! quite flavourful but wish there was more seafood/crab meat in there. Meanwhile my boyfriend ordered a regular pho noodles special. I think that's the dish you start off with to just make sure this place is really getting its stuff together haha. The meats were good, no frozen flavour. The soup base was nice and not too salty. I think it was well portioned for an average appetite. I prefer the bun though so I'm glad I stuck with my non-soup noodles :) Give it a try! It's a great place to fill that craving we all get for Viet food. Mmmm!! read more

Had a sudden craving for Pho at night and decided to stop in at Pho Metro. I have been there once on a weekday during lunch time before and found it a bit crowded because the plaza is close to a high school. That's one thing to keep in mind if you ever decide to go. My friend and I both ordered a small bowl of pho, both priced at $8.95. I found the portion of the noodles and meat to be less than other pho places considering the price point but the flavour was still good. That's where one star was lost. The staff was very friendly and enjoys to joke around which made the atmosphere quite fun. Overall, it was a good place to enjoy a bowl of Pho, I will probably be stopping by again in the future. read more

Great little place for decent and affordable viet food. Inside the plaza at Kennedy and bur oak. Great appetizers (e.g. spring rolls, rice paper rolls etc) need noodle soup (S $7.25, M $8.35, L $9.25), egg noodle soup, rice dishes, vermicelli, fried rice, pad Thai, smoothies etc. Quality of dishes are not disappointing or average at all. One of the most common avocado smoothie is done just right too. Soup broth is flavorful, texture of noodles are nice. The satay broth is more spicy than most other Vietnamese restaurants so beware. Clean simple place inside with booths and tables. Service is quite speedy. You mark your own choices on a piece of paper. They accept, credit and debit but not American Express. They also accept Vicinity points cards too for each dollar you spend. Overall nice place to eat at especially if you live in the neighbourhood. read more
