Green Leaf Vietnamese Bistro - Victoria, British Columbia

Pho was not on par. The broth does not have that authentic flavor. The chef just need to tweak a little with the recipe. Rice noodle with grill meat, prawn was excellent with very flavorful marinade. It was one of the best I've tried from SoCal, ... NorCal, Houston.... The fish sauce, a very important component of a good noodle with grill meats dish, was mixed just right. Would return again in the future when in Victoria, BC. Read more

Pho is pretty good, and the portions are big. Regular pho is good enough for me if I am not starving and the vermicelli bowl was more than enough for my girlfriend. However, I ordered the Tri-colour bean drink and the waitress never brought it. When I finished my food ... and asked, they said they will look into it. So after maybe 5 mins of me waiting, I got impatient and asked again, upon which I was told they are defrosting the beans and going to start making it soon. I understand there might be mistakes but I wished they were transparent when I asked and came back to ask me if I still wanted it before defrosting the beans and taking more time to make it. The vermicelli dish is also ok, it wasn’t as good as some other ones I had. Read more

This has been my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Victoria for many years. It's always packed with people, due to it's consistent popularity and wonderful food. All the meat is flame grilled so it has a great flavour. My personal favorite are the Vermicelli bowls, which are the best in the ... city. Also, their service is very fast, so it's a good place to go if you are short on time. Overall I'd strongly recommend Green Leaf Bistro. Read more

Huge portions, delicious food, amazing service. We were visiting in town and decided to try this place out because we were crazing Vietnamese food and it had good reviews. Would highly recommend!! We got the chicken wings, chicken combo rice, pho noodles and salad rolls - they all hit the ... spot. The waitress was very attentive and nice - she brought over some candy when our toddler was having a tantrum! 60 golden seconds of distraction. Read more
