Mina’s Vietnamese - Calgary, Alberta

Have been here several times before and always enjoyed the food but I am horrified at the service I received tonight and will not be going back there anymore. I ordered a noodle soup for myself and my husband ordered one as well. We added a $15 charbroiled pork with ... spring rolls for my daughter and when the food came, the rice dish could hardly be called a meal, especially one commanding that price point. It was a thin layer of rice with an absolutely pathetic portion of meat. When it arrived and I asked the server if this was right, she shrugged and said yes this is what the kitchen gave her. I asked her to go talk to them to fix it because it’s not a reasonable portion of food and she went into the kitchen and never came out with an update. When I finally called her over again she acted like she hadn’t been asked to do anything about it and brusquely asked us what we wanted to do. We rejected the food because we didn’t want to pay $15 for it. The attitude and lack of care about what they’re serving their customers is appalling. I wouldn’t recommend this place. There are other Vietnamese restaurants with much better food, portions and service. Read more

I suppose to post last week but i was so busy, and now i saw one review about the portioning. I ordered the same food "charbroiled beef with spring rolls" and it was delicious and too much for me 😋☺️ will order again 💯

Shrinkflation alert!!! My heart is broken! We used to love Minas. The portion sizes have shrunk drastically, and they charged us for fish sauce when it normally comes with the meal! There was almost no bean sprouts in my dish, and the peanuts were not chopped or toasted! If you ... scroll back to other reviews, you can see the portions are cut down by almost half. I never thought I'd have to eat a granola bar after finishing my $15 Vietnamese meal, when I normally can't even finish it. Read more

Asked for meat on the side because I don’t like overcooked meat. This is what they gave me: dry, hard, and grey. Don’t even bother with this place if you like good food that’s made with respect for the ones eating it. Also added is a photo of my $15 worth ... of noodles with the “”””satay””””” broth. If you don’t get my sarcasm, it’s because that’s the cleanest and least spicy broth ever since there’s not a lick of satay in it! Read more

I've only ordered from here on skip (I know, evil 🥲) but it's been really good every time. I've had the vermicelli with a bunch of different meats & spring rolls, the stir fried vermicelli, and today I had charbroiled pork and shredded pork on rice. This was an accident ... on my part, I meant to order noodles, but it was incredibly delicious anyways. Tasty and fresh food. The spring rolls were crispy and amazing. Read more
