My three kids & two parents ate here after AURA at the Basilica Notre Dame. The space is super cozy & clean & the food was excellent. We tried the Pho, Pad Pho, & Bun. We were very happy with the choice. The prices are much better than the bar-food options nearby & the food is better! The server also was very tolerant & helpful when we had an allergy question.

My wife & I were prowling the streets for lunch during a weekday & what pulled my wife towards this place was the neon pink sign that said "Bún Vibes". The place is cozy & very vibrant. You have to order at the counter & then sit. My wife & I ordered the chicken vermicelli bowl & the shredded pork poutine with lemonade & the pandan Jade lemonade. The chicken vermicelli was refreshing. Chicken was savory & everything from the vermicelli, fresh greens, & the fixings complemented each other. The winner was the poutine! It was so good. I'm Chinese Viet & I was honestly impressed by how well this dish was constructed. Right amount of vinegary taste. I don't know how to describe this dish, other than that it was deliciously delightful. A must try. The drinks were a nice palette cleanser & nice end to our meal.
