Nam Vietnamese Restaurant

A very good Vietnamese restaurant. There is no reservation at this popular place, for dinner. I recommend you should go there before 6pm to avoid a line up for a table. I highly recommended the deep fried wings , so crispy and the sauce is delicious. We were all very happy with our meals that night. It's worth a visit

This place used to be good. But my recent lunch visit has unfortunately put them an afterthought moving forward. FYI: visit was before noon and not busy. Reasons; 1. Sanitation, 2. Service, 3. Food. Sanitation. *see attached pics. I don’t doubt all restaurants are on par with cleanliness but don’t let me see it. The experience was unacceptable. Service. They say you eat with your eyes. Agree. Happy staff also helps make food more enjoyable. So smile with sincerity. *There’s also a 12% service charge automatically added to your bill. It is written all over the restaurant….hum? Food. Pho broth tasted as if it was from yesterday’s serving but watered down with added seasonings/herbs but didn’t fool us as it was overpowering. Another bowl we had was a specialty soup noodle that just tasted watered down. As mentioned, they used to be good. This leaves lots of room for improvement. Best of luck,

We got take out here and although the food was pretty tasty, the portions were quite small relative to the price. Additionally, the restaurant forgot a part of my order which I know isn’t the most uncommon thing for takeout, but just unfortunate. Pork vermicelli was really tasty and the chicken wings are excellent. If the item wasn’t missed, this would probably be a 4.

Vietnamese food and pho have become a staple in Toronto for decades, there are many Vietnamese restaurants around however, none of them is quite hitting the spot, until I tried Nam's Pho Tai and Bun Bo Hue. Thanks to my friend and in-laws recommendation, I finally find the Pho for my likings. The Pho Tai here was full of flavours, that you can smell it from afar, the spice in the soup was prominence, cinnamon and star anise scent were strong. The beef here was thin, silky and easy to chew. Beef meatballs has a chewy texture with tendon bits in it, just like how they do it in Vietnam. The Bun Bo Hue was also a strong contestant, mildly spicy, beautifully coloured by Annatto seeds, most importantly they have put shrimp paste broth into the soup base which is very authentic, you can definitely taste a hint of seafood flavour and it gave the soup an extra dimension. It has all the essential toppings for Bun Bo Hue: Vietnamese luncheon meat, beef brisket slices, port trotter and most importantly the pork blood, many restaurants don't have that here in Toronto. It is the best Bun Bo Hue I had so far, even better than in Hanoi. Gotta mention their herb plate, they have shredded banana blossom, it is quite usual in Vietnam, however you don't usually see them in many Vietnamese restaurants here. The spring roll was also good, they used the rice paper for the skin which is authentic, many restaurants here in Toronto used the Chinese spring roll skin that is a totally different animal. I would like their dipping sauce to be a bit more sour and savoury tho, but all in all it was a very enjoyable spring roll. Nam is the best Vietnamese cuisine I have tried so far, very authentic. Staff seems to be all Vietnamese and many customers are Vietnamese descents. It is a good sign that they are doing the right thing. I have already decided what to have next time I'm here. 2nd visit: 2 days after, I just can't wait to have some more, we went there with our parents and we had the soft shell crab noodles and Bo Kho tomato beef stew with rice noodles. Both are excellent, the Bun Rieu crab and pork noodles soup was lighter on palate, the Bo Kho was full of flavour and depth, the beef chunks were soft and fell apart in mouth, highly recommended. We also tried their deep fried chicken wing with honey and lemon, they were not bad, quite interesting flavour, you should try it of you felt the adventurous.

Best Vietnamese place in town! I just have to have their noodle and broth every week, especially in winter. Recently they made some changes in the menu and it's even better.Food: 5/5

Fast and tasty. Fresh noodles as well as dried noodles available for your Pho. Small restaurant so they may sit you at shared tables with plexiglass dividers and they didn’t ask nor check for COVID Vaccinations of anyone in our party of 4 nor other customers that we noticed. That may be worrisome for some patrons.

Liked it, but not sure if it's a must try. Food was tasty, lots of Vietnamese noodles/dishes that were on the menu that aren't in many other restaurants. Pretty standard taste. Quick service. Price is a couple or more dollars more than an average Viet restaurant

Soupy noodles just hits the spot! @nam.restaurant is a Vietnamese eatery in Richmond Hill. A great place if you feel like a big bowl of soupy noodles. Noodles Bun Rieu Cua with soft shell crab is so delicious. Tomato based broth with vermicelli noodles is loaded with pork, shrimp, tofu, Vietnamese ham and pork jelly. A must …..Nam’s Crispy Dry Butter Wings topped with garlic and green onions is so tasty! I am addicted and we had to place a second order to satisfy our cravings for more!! Also Shrimp Chips with Peanut Sauce and Shrimp and Pork Dumplings topped with dry shallots, cilantro and Pork Floss. For more food adventures follow me @hungryjo on Instagram

My buddy and I were thinking of a place to go for lunch, and he had heard this place was new. We tried it out and it was decent. A little bit more on the pricey side but they do have some unique aspects. The fresh roll was pretty decent and the presentation was great. The tea they serve is also very good. The pho itself was good, we both got the house special pho equivalent. They also have some pickled peppers on the table that give the soup a little bit more of a sour/spicy flavour. Would come back to try some of their specialty soups.

Decent place for Pho. Not the greatest, it’s usually busy too so not sure why it’s popular but there are definitely better pho places around, but their other dishes are pretty good, and the portion sizes are pretty big too. Might be good to visit once to try, but not my top choice.
