Pho Stanley Restaurant

best lemongrass chicken! we usually get the seafood bowl with the egg noodles but wontons are great too

Fantastic! I was greeted with a nice hot cup of tea, Pho was a great consistency, beef three ways was delish. I had the house special, highly recommend!

Update Jan 2023: Gave this long time ND local Vietnamese Restaurant another go after an ownership change last year. One of the owners was behind the counter tonight, very friendly and his partner Leslie, in the kitchen owns a Vanc. restaurant. Our server was pleasant, albeit some confusion with our order, also due to our unfamiliarity with the menu. We ordered the House Special Phò L $16.99, Deep fried Spring Rolls 2 to an order, $2.50 ea, Assorted Seafood Wonton and BBQ Pork with Noodles S $16.99, Deep Fried Rice Paper Spring Roll $4.50 and a Lemongrass Bahn Mi $8.75 to-go. The soups were hot as they should be, the DF Rice Paper Roll was greasy tasting and I didn’t care for it but everything else was good. Make sure you ask for the chili oil, it’s bomb and a tasty condiment with soup and noodles. My previous bad experiences were during day shift employees so I hope the new management has corrected that. Update Jan 2022: Went with friends for lunch to see if the poor service from hired staff had changed at all. Unfortunately it had not, food is plunked on the corner of the table without any acknowledgement. Nobody came back to check on tea/water refills. Requested the bill and same. Food was ok but the service leaves a bad taste in the mouth and doesn’t warrant a return IMO. Doesn’t seem to affect the local customer loyalty though as it’s been this way for years. Demoting to 1 star. Got take out beef noodle bowl Phō- large #6 well done brisket and skirt flank-$10.99. Soup was very hot but not as flavourful as Phō99 which is our go-to, but closed. Comes with generous portion of beef and the usual sprouts, cilanto, lime, basil, jalapeño and hoisin sauce. Hadn’t been for couple years, while the owners are very nice, friendly people, the servers have not always been very attentive to the point of being rude in the past. The food has always been quite good though. Located in a strip mall with a variety of businesses and ample parking.

Due to their lack of business ethics and scam tactics, please don’t support them. read further below They gave us a menu priced differently for us to order, and when we were ready to pay, they marked up 20% more at the till. Dine in for 2. Ordered 2 large pho, menu priced $13.50 each, when we paid they billed $15.99 each. 1 appetizer menu priced $4.99, but bill receipt with $5.99. Another appetizer $10.99 on menu we ordered from, bill receipt asked for $12.50. They didn’t say anything or bother to mention price discrepancy the entire 2+hours we were there. Not at the time we ordered nor when they brought up the dishes. Store not busy, staffs sitting around barely working. Not sure what kind of businessman operates such trickery sneaky approach. Portion shrunk. Food quality also gone down. The store was dead. Hardly any customers walked in. I bet that must be the reason. Response to owner: inflation 5-7%. Your business inflation 20% towards your new & returning customers… not sure if this type of business worth your customer’s support.

Best pho in North Delta! Tucked away in the corner of the shopping complex so it can be hard to miss. But once you have had one of these amazing dishes, trust me, you'll never go anywhere else! Food comes quickly and it never dissapoints! Good sized portions for your money too! Whether it's pho, chow mein, or a simple vermicelli bowl, it's all delicious!

Been coming here for almost 13 years. Surprised it had new owners about 7 months ago but I'm glad to say the food is still top notch and the rude waitress is gone lol! Customer service is always friendly now. Everything we order still tastes just as good as before. And I spoke with the new owner they will soon be adding Viet subs and vegetarian dishes! Keep supporting this local gem!

Second time I try this restaurant but this time not that good. I order ice coffee but it never come and the noodle mostly beef more than flank and tendon. When I go at cashier to pay and ask about my ice coffee, the guy who take order for me that he said he forget to order for me. I don’t think I will come back to this restaurant again in future.

New owners, seem like lovely people, but the food has become disappointing unfortunately. The soup is not nearly as flavorful as it used to be and when you get take out you get far less condiments and much less soup. Sadly will not be going here again.Food: 1/5

The worst service. It felt like we were bothering them. The Pho was ok but the chicken lemon grass was served like a smashed piece of meat on the plate, supposed to come with vermicelli noodles, but when it didn't they scraped off the rice came back and slaped the plate down with the noodles hanging off the plate. Three of us got our meals 25 min later then I had to ask for the fourth meal 10 min later. Not going back.

Awesome food, big portions. We frequent this place despite poor customer service because of the food. Their pho is by far the best I've had in the lower mainland. Perfect balance ir flavours and aroma and generous portions. Customer service is pretty average, kinda makes you feel like you are in Asia. The staff are neither polite nor friendly or will crack a smile but they are fast and efficient.
