Reviews for Ph? VN Express in Ottawa, ON
My wife and I have been going there for years. The owners and staff are ultra friendly and always make you feel welcome. I have... enjoyed everything that I have tried there and always go back to their lemongrass chicken and their chicken curry. Their PadThai is pretty solid too. Read more
Excellent lunch option in downtown Ottawa I've been going to this restaurant since it was opened. The quality of food has... always been top notch, portions reasonable (could be larger) and good price, in relation to downtown Ottawa. This is a smallfamily owned restaurant, but extremely popular during lunch hour. Owner and staff are super friendly, make you feel like part offamily. They prepare food on site, always fresh and very tasty. I prefer their rice dishes over the pho dishes, but stillhighly recommend! Read more
Great pho and the only place I know of that serves it before 11am. Might be my need favorite spot
I was looking for ph? while visiting Ottawa and the reviews led me here. The words "hidden gem" other reviewers used are very... fitting! The broth was a little too sweet for my taste but I am not the norm on that aspect, so don't worry. The fresh springrolls (called salad rolls) were also delicious and made on the spot. The price was a tad more than I would have expected but Iam unsure about the usual prices to expect around here. Read more
I really like this little place. I was craving a big hot bowl of pho one day at work and I saw online this place was only a few... steps away from my office. I was sceptical at first because it didn't have any reviews yet and it was on the second floor of anoffice building but went to check it out anyway. I went up the elevator and saw the place was bustling with office workers witha lineup outside the door and decided it was worth a try. It seem like a family restaurant in a cafeteria style with authenticfood. All the ingredients were fresh, the broth was tasty. Service was fast and friendly and prices were good. Overall this ismy new go-to lunch place in centretown when I'm craving Vietnamese, really glad I found it and I've been back several timessince. Read more
Average place that serves the office crowd for breakfast and lunch, tucked away on the second floor. Nothing amazing: average... price, average amount of food and average service. Has room for seating. Ordered a pho and found the taste average, compared toothers in Chinatown or other places in Centretown. It was fast though! Read more
I have been here several times for lunch, and it's okay at best. I come back because I crave vermicelli and it's the only place... around, that I know of. I get V3 - spring rolls on vermicelli, and they are always so, so stingy on the noodles. When theyspoon them into the container, they always take some back out, without fail. Like those 9 extra vermicelli noodles (which aredirt cheap to purchase) are going to put the company out of business? It's that kind of cheapness that is very off-putting. Ialso brought my office of 8 here for breakfast a few months ago, and we all collectively agreed it was terrible - super greasy,the bacon had a very weird taste, and it took forever, as there is only one person making everything. Please stay away from thebreakfast! If there was another Pho/Vietnamese restaurant that was around my office, I would definitely be taking my businesselsewhere. Read more
Went here for lunch with two friends today. Food was freshly made and quick. Service was friendly and helpful. Would have given... it 4.5 stars. The location is a bit hidden, but it still gets quite busy. Get there a bit earlier of you want to sit-down andavoid the lunch rush. Read more
