    Great services clean and quiet, but the soup is too sweet, and the meat less, and different style of noodle soup seems used same soup base. The owner is very nice, he check in with you.

    First meal ever to try in Calgary! It was hella cold so we wanted something warm. Why not pho? Our humorous waitress was very welcoming! He knew we are not locals, so he gave suggestions and tips around the area which was very nice. FOOD: I ordered the Pho (w/ steak and brisket) along with the spring rolls. The broth was so fresh and distinct on the first sip. Tasted SO different compared to pho here in the US. I really liked the taste of the broth! It's just.. something about it that makes me love pho more. I'm not for sure if it tasted more traditional pho, but it was really good! I would highly recommend this place to the locals in Calgary. The pho tastes way better than the pho in the US.

    We're from California and came to visit for Banff, and before heading out wanted to try pho in another city. We weren't sure if this is consider good pho for Calgary, but came because we saw great reviews. The pho was okay. The broth was waaay to sweet. Like super sweet. If they took out the sweetness it could be good pho. But it was decent. Meat and noodles were good. Big portion, pricing just right. The spring rolls were sad, very thin and had no substance. Veggie were at least fresh. The server was very friendly and helpful though. The place was small and clean. It's a nice change (friendly service and clean) for a pho place!

    Their satay beef noodle was really good. I was scared to try but all of the flavours were there and the beef was soft too. Definitely recommend if you're traveling!

    The noodle soup was great. The boss is one friendly person to talk to. The others also enjoyed some good food and they hear any complaints. Good place to try out

    My friends and I were pretty and (really) cold after touching down to Calgary after a long plane ride. We needed something hot, and what's better than pho!? Anyway... this was close so we gave it a shot. We had to ask for water to get it... which I'm not sure if a norm in Canadian restaurants, because this was experienced at other restaurants as well. There wasn't any other party at the restaurant when we got there (around 4pm), but quickly became filled as we were eating. There's adequate seating. I would say that music would be a good addition to this setting so that it's not so quick. To the food! I ordered Pho Dac Biet (like always). The first sip of broth was.. interesting (that's rarely a good thing). It was different, but my taste buds quickly was enlightened by the taste! It was a more fresh taste than I have had in the DMV area. This pho was amazing! I'm highly impressed. The staff was super nice and gave recommendations for our travels to Banff. The price for food is also very reasonable. Would definitely come back for the pho.

    I was on my way to Pho Thanh and I spot a sign - a new Vietnamese restaurant just opened up. Since it's only 2 mins away from my original destination, I figured - meh why not. Oh wow...I'm first to review this place! Sweet. It's a nice, cozy place. Looked more like an Italian restaurant than a Vietnamese but it doesn't matter. It's clean and it had jazz music going so good enough for me. In any new Vietnamese restaurant, I always start off with the usual order - Pho satay and spring rolls. If they can't these 2 things right, they'll never see me again. The spring rolls was nice and hot...and greesy! Just the way I like it. The Satay was familiar. It reminded me of Saigon Y2K. I had to ask the owner. So apparently, he owned Saigon Y2K in downtown! Aha..I knew it! Anyways, he sold Y2K and opened Saigon Royal in Douglasdale and then sold that and opened this joint. Well he did good. I've always liked Saigon Y2K back when I was working in downtown. Food = 2 stars Would I come back = sure, 1 star Atmosphere = 1 star Price = $34 for 2 bowls, ice coffee, and spring rolls....steep? yeah a lil' but that's average. 0 star

    We saw this restaurant while in the area and made it a point to try it out. Girlfriend said it was the best veggie spring rolls she'd ever had. Hers was a veggie spring roll/vermicelli. Mine a grilled pork/regular spring roll/vermicelli. Was absolutely delicious! Sauce was without chillis by request, and server made sure we were absolutely taken care of. Jazz music in the background. No vietnamese subs, but the goal of this place is great service and dine in. Will be back for sure. Previous review mentioned Saigon Y2K, and it was confirmed because it came up in conversation. If subs were available to-go we'd go nowhere else. Highly recommended!

    I am from Hamilton Ontario, where there are a lot of Vietnamese restaurants. Finding one in Calgary, I was a little apprehensive at first. It is located in a humble strip mall, and parking was very easy. Inside was very clean, and the owner who served us was very warm, friendly and attentive. The food was very delicious. No fatty meats, well seasoned and fresh vegetables. Very clean inside and nice small touches like individual dipping sauces when you order rolls for the table. This is a must stop restaurant in Calgary for me now.

    Fast and tasty food make this a fine choice for Vietnamese Takeout. A comfortable, clean and intimate atmosphere with friendly staff make this a fine choice for a dinner out in Beddington. Saigon Red Sky is you typical Vietnamese restaurant, except everything is a touch nicer. Along with Buddha statues and other Vietnamese trinkets and you might find elsewhere, Saigon Red Sky has put a bit more thought into the overall look. Lighting chosen for an intimate diner atmosphere instead of fluorescents. Art work on the walls over the tables. Tables and chair that all look like they were purchased at the same time in an attempt to give the place a look. It's by no means The Ritz, but it looks like they've at least put some thought into your dining experience as well as the food. I'm not incredible at telling the subtle nuances of one Vermicelli bowl to the next, but what they brought me, I enjoyed. Fresh tasting ingredients, plenty of fish sauce, a container of hoisin sauce for me to dunk everything in. I really liked the meatballs that accompanied the shrimp, spring roll and grilled pork in my Saigon Red Sky Vermicelli Special (#60) - sort of like a Vietnamese chorizo. Delish!

    After flying here from the U.S., my friends and I decided to come here before going to Banff. It was well worth it. The Pho tasted really fresh and authentic. We ordered Pho, summer rolls and a pork, egg and rice dish. The mango bubble tea tasted sweet and I have no complaints. The overall service was spot on, we never had to ask for a refill, more napkins, utensils, etc. Our server was polite and was able to have a conversation about his recommendations on what to see in Banff and downtown Calgary. Highly recommend!

    Place is pretty good, I would recommend trying it out if you are in the area and feel like Asian food.

    Full of flavor despite it being vegan. We stopped by on our travels craving Vietnamese food and…read morethis place really hit all the right notes. The restaurant was pretty spacious and not very busy on a Saturday late afternoon. The place however was a little warm inside, maybe the AC wasn't working as they had some fans on. We ordered the vermicelli dish and pad Thai as the staff told us it was their most popular dish. The pad Thai was indeed one of our favorite. It had a unique smoky flavor to it. We also ordered the pho and eggplant dish. The pho had a surprisingly rich flavor. I would definitely recommend the pho. Overall we were very pleased with our meal and left full with hardly any left overs.

    Let me start with the food first! I have had my best vegan…read morepho here!! Being a vegetarian, I have had a hard time getting pho that's flavorful but the chefs here have magic in their hands, they have put so much heart and effort in packing so much flavor in their broths! I had the Sate Tofu Noodle Soup, ah can't get the taste out of my head!! Such richness, the freshness of the house made tofu paired with soft rice noodles was just beyond perfection!! The Pad Thai was also delicious: it missed one thing: crushed peanuts which we usually get at Thai restaurants. The restaurant has a very calm and peaceful auto to it!!! Full of large plants and a meditation area, it's a nice getaway from the corporate hustle outside. The place closes at 8, so reach early.
