First time being there since it was renovated. I ordered the extra large chicken noodle soup #13. Overall the food was good. The broth had taste but my only complaint is that there was not very much chicken. Roughly there was about a third of a chicken breast, cut up into thin slices.. not very happy bout that. I did order takeout and I thought they forgot the chicken there was so little. I actually had to make my OWN chicken breast and put it in there. So if you go here and don’t expect too much protein. 14$ for soup is a lil expensive especially if u have to add your own chicken to make it a full meal….. -.-???
2018 Update: they’re back baby!! Their curry soup is exactly the same!! Still the best in Calgary.Their sate paste is different. It was better before the fire.The renovations look good. It’s bright and fully lit. Not a dim romantic place.So happy they are open again!!!!October 2016: I think this place is closed due to a fire. I can’t wait until they reopen.My review based on dozens of visits over the last couple of years:Food: It’s a little pricey for Viet but they do Curry Vermicelli soup like no other so it’s worth the extra couple of dollars to me (#20, #21 are my picks). Their sate sauce is also incredible and I usually get a side of it with whatever I order. Their grilled shrimp on skewers are amazing (part of #8 and some of the vermicelli dishes). The rest of the menu is not bad but the dishes I mentioned are the reasons I make the drive there. Service: Friendly service.Ambiance: Nicer than many other Viet places.
Have gotten takeout a few times on Macleod Trail and the food is good but vegetarian items like #67 is too expensive for the portion size!!!!!Service was good
Serving were huge. I had the spicy seafood sate with double beef balls and it was a thing of beauty. Amazing place. The curry soups are a must. Seafood curry with beef balls will change your life. I’m a fan of peanut broth not the red broth so much so take that into consideration. But if you like sate and peanut broth this place will be your favorite
The service was slow and the server didn’t know much English. It was difficult trying to order a 2nd beer. The server was nice and we’ll mannered I think he was just busy being the only server working. Some tray experience would probably help him so he doesn’t have to carry 2 glasses at a time during dinner rush.I ordered the chicken fried rice. It was good and it was a huge portion.This place kind of makes me feel like I’m at a fast food restaurant even though it’s not.I’ll go back. Just not at peak times
Food is good… no doubt but I confirmed they take more than what you should be paying. I am visiting the place with my workmates and so barely would pay attention on the bill. My 2nd to last visit, I saw my card receipt at home and found out they took more than what should I pay. I came back for a pick-up, again they took more than a dollar but I was able to let them return this time.So, beware!
Good place for people without taste!. Very mediocre food and I’m being kind, service was sad. Don’t eat here unless you don’t know any better. No one asked us how our meal was, sure sign of bad food.
