Bonne bouffe, super choix de repas. De grosse assiette. Seule bémol: j'ai eu très froid toute le temps du repas avec la porte d'entrée qui ouvrait & fermait & l'air climatisé était aussi allumé

DANGER. BEWARE. This is the THIRD time I find a foreign material in my food. The first time was a metal washer. I advised for SAFETY concerns they didn't seem to care & offered me a refund which I didn't accept, ridiculous I found metal in my soup! I thought they ask to see it, they explained where they thought it came from & that's about it.
Stopped going for a while then started again, not many options around there.
A few more times I would find chicken bits in a vegetable meal!
BUT Again in two meals we found some kind of wood/ceramic pieces that are NOT food. & of course the wood was at the bottom of the soup so ate two full meals with wood/ceramic at bottom! Pretty sharp edges. THAT'S THE LAST TIME. DISGUSTED.
& guess what else, someone in the kitchen must be sick because after two meals yesterday I'm sick like a dog.
This place is not safe & I have no idea if this only happens to me or if others choose not to advise. At this point it's a SERIOUS safety concern.
A lovely lunch spot with super friendly & helpful staff. They helped me choose - without pushing the bigger sizes. I had a small grilled chicken pho, a grill tofu fresh roll, & a small bottle of beer. CA$35 (with tip included)
Yet - the star of my lunch was their house made SATE! An unforgettable condiment!

Was a decent Pho experience, most of the menu is chicken or tofu. I had grilled chicken pho & spring rolls, the chicken was grilled well. The pho broth was fine, the drink menu is good not anything special.
Surprise this place isn't better rated! We really enjoyed our banh mi & gluten-free noodle dish. They have several gluten-free options for those in the market. Good flavors, good portions, good & friendly service.
We were getting a tickle in our throats & craved some hot soup. We picked the grilled chicken pho noodle. I chose the large size & asked if they had some spicy peppers for it. At first she said no but another girl said yes. A couple of small, red, very hot & spicy peppers came on the side with my soup. It was great & really helped my throat. We like it. My wife said she wished it came with a little more broth. Other than that, perfect. After they served us, it became very busy, obviously a popular place for lunch.
