Reviews for Sealand Pho in Nanaimo, BC
Food was good. No complaints. Bathrooms were clean. Water taste good. Free parking on the GREEN spots only. They have patio.
Today was the first time our family went here. After reviewing the reviews on google we knew to expect a delay in service... because of the lack of front of house staff. As we come out of the pandemic we need to remember to be patient and offer kindnessas businesses are recovering and labour shortages are a real problem. The food, presentation and prices are great. And the viewis stunning. We recommend you come here for the food and view. Read more
First visit with my family, and although the service time to get our orders in took around 15mins, we consider the food and... presentation to be worth the wait. In the restaurants defence, we did arrive at 7:16pm (about 45mins until closing), there wasonly one man handling the front, and we are aware restaurant food service BC wide has been low staff. So keep in mind, to havea patient mind with food service workers, for they are trying their best. With Sealand Pho, we were very pleased with theirservice. :) Read more
Yummy food and great view! Loved their chili oil sauce for the noodle soup. And the Vietnamese coffee is really good too!
The pho is amazing and the homemade crispy wonton is full of flavour. This is the best Vietnamese food I've had outside of... Vietnam! A hidden gem in Nanaimo. :) Read more
We had an amazing experience here! The food was phenomenal and the service was fast and friendly. Everything was delicious- the... banh mi was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The beef pho broth had amazing flavor and the shrimp salad rolls werelight and refreshing. Definitely the best food we’ve had on Vancouver island! Read more
Came here for a quick lunch before we leave from Departure Bay ferry terminal yet we were very disappointed by the food despite... the decent google rating. The view of the restaurant is very nice. However, the herb and bean sprouts were not fresh at all. Theleaves of the basil turned black and the bean sprouts tip are turning black too, what's worse is that they boiled the beansprouts in order to cover up the fact that they're not fresh! Don't serve old food to your customers! The pho broth is verybland and lacking flavors of spice. The service is very slow too, waited almost half an hour for the pho to come out, pho issupposed to be quick food. Despite the nice setting of the restaurant, essentially it's the food that attracts and keeps thecustomers, what a pity that the owner neglected showing care to their food. Read more
Convenient location, beautiful view. While service was friendly, it was slow. The Pho was tasty, although served without... beansprouts. The Lemongrass chicken with vermicelli was full price but the portion looked like half what it typically would be. We suggest some attention be paid to these concerns and with that taken care of, we would recommend. Read more
