Pho Pham University District

Excellent Vietnamese restaurant in the University District. We had lunch on a recent Saturday and the food was very good. We had the pork spring rolls, beef pho, chicken pho and grilled pork chops and the food was top notch. 2 thumbs up. Service was friendly and efficient. There’s free street parking but it does get busy. Just an fyi, my photos are of the take-out menu. If you’re dining-in you can also get the soups in a small size. They have nice all gender washrooms, one even has natural daylight.

The three of us came for dinner tonight. We arrived around 6 p.m., and there were still one or two empty tables. But by the time we started ordering, people were already waiting for seats—this place is clearly very popular. I ordered the House Special Pho, along with chicken wings and onion cakes to share. The Pho was excellent—light but flavorful broth, bouncy noodles, tender beef, and generous portions. The onion cakes were also outstanding: soft and chewy on the inside, fragrant with green onion, and crisp on the outside. In Vietnamese cuisine, people traditionally dip fried dough sticks into soup, and this onion cake gives a similar kind of satisfaction.

Absolutely outstanding Vietnamese restaurant! The service here is consistently great — the staff are friendly, attentive, and always make us feel welcome. The food is incredibly delicious every single time. My wife and I have tried a lot of pho places over the years, and this has officially become our favourite spot. The broth is rich and flavourful, the portions are generous, and everything tastes fresh and homemade. You can tell they put real care into their cooking. If you love pho or Vietnamese cuisine in general, this place is a must-try. Highly recommended!
