Pho Dalat III - Vancouver

This is my favorite Pho restaurant! It’s the best Pho I’ve ever had! Their broth is just home made and super special flavor! I really recommend the vegetable and the chicken Pho! Owners are so sweet and food is like home made and super authentic! I recommend calling to order! portions are very well served !

Of all the pho places I’ve been, this is up front the most charming. It felt welcoming and quaint, right down to the older lady with the grey hair who waited on me with such a pleasant and calming manner. First thing I notice is the complete condiment selection, nicely arranged and generous. So many places skimp on that, like they don’t trust you not to use too much or stuff it in your bag. I got the spicy Vietnamese broth and steam came rolling off the bowl like mists rising from the ancient forests. When the broth arrived, I was disappointed in the accompanying basil, it was skimpy and very wilted and I was ready to write the place off. But then I addressed the broth and it was spectacular! It’s that thing where I can smell the fish sauce but only taste a profound savory depth. It’s rare I don’t add a little hoisin or chili sauce, but the broth was perfect just as it came. I love a good thick chewy noodle and this was excellent. When I went to take a drink of water, I was pleased by the hint of lemon, a gesture of care that I find powerful and attractive. When the waitress brought tea, she poured politely and arranged my cup for me in a convenient position, I suspect she is one of the owners as she has that ability to show confidence and strength through quiet service. It was special. Back to the basil, on my next visit if it’s wilted again I will remove a star, because really? Edit: 2nd and third visits, perfect basil. On the other hand, it won’t stop me from coming again and again for the amazing soup and the warm and calming atmosphere.

I had the beef pho soup. It was delicious and very nice people. A bit on the expensive side. But all and all it was a good place.

Great pho! The broth was really flavorful and one of the best I’ve had in a long time. The service was very friendly and fast. I definitely look forward to returning here. Also, they have really good prices for the portions they serve. Thank you!

Updated Review* My first week moving to Vancouver and I wanted to find a place that served good pho while get more bang for your buck. Pho Hong Phat didn’t disappoint! When I first came to this location, I was greeted by a kind lady that goes by the name of Annie. She’s a very sweet, polite and respectful person who made my experience a pleasant one. I ended up coming back twice in a week. I like their concept on bringing an extra bottle of water so there’s no hassle for asking while you eat. This alone freed up time for them to focus on getting other orders ready while still being able to accommodate others but I haven’t gotten a chance to use it because I was too busy drinking the tasteful broth. Servings are just right for my needs and 2/2 hit the spot. I can honestly see myself being a regular here. Phó (both beef
