We come here almost every week because the food and service are amazing!

My personal favorites are the cashew chicken and coconut shrimp. The atmosphere is pleasant, although not as cozy as some other places. However, the quality of the food, service, and affordability more than make up for it. It's a great spot for a budget-friendly lunch option. Highly recommend!

Although my husband feels like pho every day. LolAnyway, we came to Royal Pho and had not been for awhile mostly because we tend to eat pho in fall/winter. We usually come during off hours when the restaurant is not too busy. Well, yesterday was Sunday evening and we felt like some good pho in a quiet restaurant. We chose Royal Pho because we love their pho. We walk into the restaurant that was quite full. Maybe 2 tables available at the time. The owner saw us walk in and greeted us with a huge smile while cleaning and setting a table for us with menus. He seemed very busy at the time getting orders delivered to table customers but he was still a happy, courteous and genuinely a kind man. We didn't mind waiting to put our order in because we could see he was hustling from the kitchen to the main dinning area the whole time we were waiting. We figured that he would get us eventually.After quite a few minutes, he came smiling to our table to ask for our order. Ok so let me put it out there, we LOVE PHO!! LOL. My husband, myself and 11yr old grandson ordered XL pho with added chicken, plus cheese wontons, coconut shrimp and shrimp rolls. The owner chuckled that we will have leftovers to take home especially my grandson.Let me tell you the food did not disappoint!! The appetizers were delivered hot with a lot of flavour that you can't stop yourself at one not leaving any on the plateThe cheese wontons were hot with a delicious pillowy green cheese filling inside that was loved by all of us! The coconut shrimp were fried with a coconut coating which was nice and crispy leaving you to wanting more. The fried shrimp rolls were different and not what we expected, but they were still out of this world outstanding! Now the pho, it was full of delicious broth with thinly sliced beef, chicken, beef balls and rice noodles served hot. The broth was delicious, but lacking something which I couldn't place. It seemed slightly watered down for me but my husband and grandson found it perfect. Yes, XL pho is a lot for me but my husband and grandson ate it all. My grandson even shocked the owner that he finished every drop leaving nothing to take home giving him a high five then upon leaving surprising him with a bag of candy as a reward for finishing the XL pho. Wowww..what a nice thing to do!THIS IS CUSTOMER SERVICE AT ITS FINEST!!This is why we always come back!! Keep up the great food and excellent customer service! THANK YOU!!
