Phoenix Noodle House

Bright and spacious spot for Vietnamese eats. Tried the specialty Bo Xao Ca Tim with a side of rice and quite enjoyed it, especially the eggplants and the sauce.Food: 4/5

I’ve visited this place 4 times this year and times I’ve dined here, the food was consistently delicious. They have the best fried spring rolls for sure. They’re large not like other places where they charge so much for 2 small pieces. The soup is so good - seasoned just right and clear too. They give generous serving for the price. I’ve ordered the grilled pork & chicken and they top it with a fried egg - equally tasty and served with vegetables to balance the plate. Also tried their shrimp mango salad & fried shrimp chips - both are fresh & tasty. They are fast in serving & are accommodating to their customers. The room can be better maintained with increasing the heat during cold months but overall, I highly recommend this place if looking for good food & service. I will definitely be back for the food. Vegetarian options: They have salad & seafood options

Many, many good things to say about this place - portion sizes are very generous and prices reasonable compared to other restaurants. Food is so well seasoned and cooked, but their pho broth is particularly flavourful with all sorts of spices involved. The service is very fast, but it was also rather empty when I went.Food: 5/5

This is some great Vietnamese food, in a really central area and with so much variety. The portions were big with a very fair ratio to their price. Their A6 - fried eggplant and tofu - was one of my favorite dishes. I'd be happy to come again.

The menu is a bit confusing because of the translations but the staff are quite helpful. The broth was very good. I liked that they bring you a plate of bean sprouts and basil to add if you like. The beef was nice, the chicken was a bit dry but this is to be somewhat expected since it’s chicken breast. Good amount of rice noodles, next time I might ask for less noodles and more bean sprouts. Overall, the best part was the broth and is the reason I will be back! Well balanced and not too salty.

Owner did not take our order. Gave us a piece of paper to write our own order, we did. He did not confirm with us what we ordered and delivered BOTH of our orders wrong. He then blamed and scolded us for bad penmanship and went as far as rolling his eyes on us. EXTREMELY RUDE and unprofessional. Also he did not let us see the bill and added his own tip. We later found out he overcharged us. Flavor was pretty good but will NEVER come back due to this sketchy behavior.

Really delicious home made Vietnamese food with generous portions! Plus they have an entire veggie menu for vegetarians or vegans! friendly service too.

The food was delicious. The only thing I didn’t appreciate was the Auto-gratuity applied to the cost, and to top it off, applied to the AFTER tax amount. Not cool. We were only 2 people eating. I would have likely tipped a similar amount, but that would have been my choice.

The food here is excellent. My only issue is their shady business practices. These people automatically add a tip to your bill even if you're a table for one they will add a tip to your bill without you even knowing And then will not say anything You'll have 15 percent added to your bill as a tip but they don't say anything and many customers including myself have been scammed into this and even add another tip on top of this bec we don't even realize they have just stolen or helped themselves to a tip This happened to me yesterday and when I confronted her about this I was told it was her point of sale machine that does this automatically This is absolutely unacceptable It's actually theft. They do this to everyone. I understand it's a stand for large tables of 8 or more. But for a table of one. This place has been ripping off individual customers/tables Beware they are thieves and while I'm all for tipping and would have definitely left her the 15 percent because the food was great... That's up to me. We decide how much and even if we want to tip or not. Not the server.

AVOID if you have any dietary restrictions. UNSAFE for people with allergies. The "vegetarian spring rolls" I ordered had pork in them. I told the owner but he gaslit me and kept insisting that it was just taro until I lifted a large obvious chunk of pork out of the food and handed it to him. He took it, wordlessly, and replaced my order, but the next spring rolls he brought ALSO had pork in them. I've eaten their veggie spring rolls before and they're different. I'm not sure what was going on, but clearly they can't keep track of their ingredients. I do not eat pork, so it was upsetting to unwittingly consume it. I explained this and he was completely unapologetic. I understand that mistakes happen, but it felt disrespectful that he wouldn't listen or apologize. He still charged me for the spring rolls even though he never brought me vegetarian ones. I asked him to remove them from my bill but he refused several times before doing so. I have never written a negative review before, and I honestly feel a little weird about doing it, but I don't want anyone else with an allergy or dietary restriction to end up in the same situation.
