Great food. Service was excellent. Make sure to ask about their dim sum menu. They don't give it to you automatically but it's there. We always get dinsum heat and enjoy it quite a bit. Will certainly be coming back.Food: 5/5

Conveniently located in Hespeler road, this place is spacious and has a great ambience. We tried the beef rare and trite pho and red Thai curry. Both were delicious and quantity was reasonable. The plaza has enough parking spots and its usually fully parked between 6 and 7 pm.

My go to place for Asian comfort food! Had my usual: beef red curry with rice , always spicy and flavourful with eggplant & bamboo shoot and the young coconut juice. So so good. Service could be a bit better as we had to flag our waitress down several times but the food keeps me coming back :

This is the second time I ate here. We ordered different dishes and they are just as wonderful. The servings are big and I would order a few dishes and share with everyone.Food: 5/5

Good food and so many bubble tea options! Have been twice and will probably go back just on the expensive side at about $20 per dish. We had leftover but didn't last as long as we thought it would as portions aren't as big as what you would think for the $$$.

Ben Thanh Viet Thai Restaurant A Review by Hassan Hawash A Great Tasty Flavourful Meal We were initiated to this fine family dining establishment by way of tucking into my missus’ luncheon leftover takeaway of Tom Yom Soup, red shrimp curry and a salad not too too long ago and were pretty well hooked from that time. We finally decided on a time to experience this establishment’s culinary delights in a dine in setting. Upon stepping through the reception, where we were greeted by our Vietnamese host, there was that evocative aroma, the ever so reminiscent trademark scent, with strong aromatic components wafting from the kitchen oh so typical of Thai restaurants I found myself at in the land of smiles. Soon after being seen to our table, we were presented with our menus and order forms. Our young son, 10, enjoyed the activity of filling in the order form taking stock of the choices we made after a very thorough look at all the tempting offerings on the menu. Nice little feature to fill in our own menu, but at this dine in experience the prices were listed. One order of Tom Yom Soup, a pretty close match to dining in Asia, was good for the three of us. We also shared the papya salad which was a little spicy, but just enough to tingle your lips. Shrimp Pad Thai and a vegetable tofu dish rounded out our choices. On all accounts, our choices did not disappoint, left us raving about our deliciously tasty mini buffet and again reminded us of our visits to Thailand. The serving sizes are so generous we had takeaway for a meal the next day.

One word. Delicious! Busy little place, yet fast, friendly service. If I could have tried one of everything on the menu, I would. Was there three times while in town, and will be back. Definitely recommend.

The Hanoi style pork burger & grill pork here come in huge portion. The grilled meat is well marinated, very tender, cook thoroughly but still quite juicy. Throw the sliced papaya carrot into their sweet fish-sauce and they will go perfectly crunchy and tasty with them groundpork/ burger. Only thing is they seem to always run out of regular soft vermicelli as in original recipe so its thinner, smaller version is replaced. But yeh not bad overall!

I think this resturant has the best fried spring roll and fresh shrimp roll. I have been to many asians resturant, and this is so far the best for spring rolls. The price is reasonable as well. Quick service and very clean inside. I dont have the picture of spring rolls.

We were starving so we ordered 2 pho and lamb skewer. But depite the fact we were starving, we couldnt finish our orders. First of all, i know there is shortage in sriracha sauce these days, so they r not using it which i understand. But they r not using proper hoisin saucedark brown either. The lamb skewer was terrible. It was not grilled. It was boiled lamb meat in skewer. It was so tough zero juicyness. Anyhow it was boiled meat. Most important part of all is pho. Pho soup was full of MSG, u can just taste all that in ur throat. I do not understand how they have such a high rating. Everything was fake. I can see all their milkshakes and all are from powder. U can simply see them all behind the bar anyways. We r coming back there ever.
