Quynh Nhi - London, Ontario

So friendly and responsive. Food was excellent...in particular, the coconut shake was alien (out of this world).

I am not sure how this place got such high scores from other reviews as it is overall terrible. We ordered 2 dishes: the grilled lemongrass chicken with shredded pork on rice and the special beef noodle soup. For the grilled lemongrass pork with shredded pork, as pictured below, the amount ... of protein we got was comically small. The chicken was also very thin, meaning it's going to be overall dry when grilled and blandly seasoned. The shredded pork and rice was average compared to other Vietnamese restaurants. For $15.50 at the of this review, it is priced higher than most other Vietnamese restaurants for significantly lower quality. The special beef noodle only contained sliced beef, beef balls and 2 pieces of tripe, as pictured below. (This was a takeout order and the noodles and soup were combined in my own bowl.) It did not contain any beef brisket that was indicated on the menu. The beef balls were also split into thirds instead of the usual halves to further cheap out on ingredients (this is also pictured below). The soup was a bit weak on flavour but acceptable. The noodles themselves are likely commercially purchased as were similar to those found in other Vietnamese restaurants. Overall, the special beef noodle soup is not as laughably bad as the first dish, but still overpriced for $15.00 at the time of this review. In summary, as both dishes follow the theme of skimping out on ingredients, it's not likely it's a one off thing. I am seriously not sure how it managed to get 5-star scores from other reviewers; maybe it was better in the past or they have just never eaten at any other Vietnamese restaurants. I don't think there is a single Vietnamese restaurant in London that is worse than this one so I would suggest going to any of the other ones in London. Read more

I ordered the chicken pad Thai (no cilantro and mild) for takeout and was very disappointed. There was no depth of flavour at all. It was all dry noodle and peanuts and the chicken was dry and flavourless. I think the photos accurately display how bad it was. It came ... to $16 after tax. Considering the quality, I wouldn't spend your money. Read more

We both love Pad Thai so we came because a coworker highly recommended it, The Pad Thai was good but not the best I have ever had. maybe our friend set the bar to high for us. We also both shared the chicken fried rice and we both didn't ... like it. The place was very clean and the service was good. Read more

Amazing Vietnamese food. The Pad Thai and fresh spring rolls are amazing. But you can't beat the Pho or as its listes on the menu beef soup. Thw waitress told me the pho was gluten free because of the rice noodles. Absolutely delicious. Will go back again. ... Its a 4 star because the decor could be a little nicer. Read more
