Villa Vietnamese - Richmond, British Columbia

This is a CA$8.10 chicken rice. And this is what you see right after the box is opened. Staff said this is the standard portion and if I want to get more chicken, add CA$3 for a bit more. Absolutely unacceptable

Unfortunately this place went really downhill. I remember it was best in lansdown food court, but today what we bought was all awful: rice dry, noodles overcooked, onion burned, fried rolls chewy and bland. And fried in stinky oil. I ordered chicken to go and got pork instead. I suggest you ... stay away from this place. Read more

Got the 1. House special, with the lemon tea. The soup was too bland for my tastes. The quantity of meat was moderate, the noodles were cooked well. Lemon tea was good. Overall, the dish needs more flavor. However, their pricing is competitive, as $9 for lunch with a drink ... is a solid deal. Read more

If you're looking for good Vietnamese food, probably don't expect it here. The prices are tempting but you really get what you paid for. I got the lemon grass chicken with the roll dip vermicelli bowl - wasted $12. I couldn't take another bite because everything tasted a bit off. ... The vermicelli had a sour taste, chicken tasted stale, roll dip was tough and super oily. The moment I saw them quickly throwing my food together as well as them trying to sweep the floor for closing (45mins before closing) I knew I'm going to be in for a treat ...I ended up getting food elsewhere in the food court.

The 2 stars are for the affordability and variety on the menu. The food itself isn’t impressive. The meat smelled stall. Like they had cooked it over and over a few times when the meat didn’t sell. No visible green onion in the “scallion sauce” on meat. Instead I ... saw white onion. That’s an unacceptable replacement. Read more
