Blue Ocean Vietnamese Restaurant — Restaurant in Calgary

This was the longest wait for a restaurant I've encountered between every section if dinner. I would of chaucked it up to be busy, but the restaurant was half ful and we were pretty much the last guests to arrive before closing.

We arrived and all the tables weren't cleaned upon arrival, no biggie, we sat down at one then they cleaned it when they brought us menus. They left us for about 15 minutes with the menu when we already knew what we wanted and tried to ask to order when dropping of the menus bit they said they would be right back. We ordered tea and water, the tea came right away but we had to ask again for the water after 20 min, 40 min after ordering we asked them where our apitizer were.. they said they would get it right away and it came a minute later. 55 minutes after ordering, we asked if our dinner was still coming, they said they were just about to start it and asked if I wanted to cancel the order as it would be 10-15 min still... anyways we waited over an hour from ordering wasting 1/16th our our waking day waiting. Finally when it arrived, the food was sub par, there was no spoons for the soup on any tables, after I asked, took 10 min for them to find a clean spoon and for soup, there was barely any broth. The food was a 4 out 4 of 10, Won't...

First visit, success! I ordered to start the shrimp salad rolls (I couldn’t wait to eat them 😅, so there is no photo!). I’m usually quite picky when it comes to peanut sauce, it has to taste just right (best so far is Bolsa’s - those little extra peanut chunks just do it for me but that’s besides the point). Peanut sauce 4/5 (again, just missing those peanut chunks, lol) and 5/5 for taste. Salad rolls on its own also had a good taste. Moving on to the spring rolls (I got the végétarien ones): fresh out the deep-fry is always the best! I had one, saved the rest for another time and they were still very nice to eat the next day! 6/5. And finally, I ordered a simple no meat noodle soup with satay: excellent! Broth is SO yummy! Also got to take the noodles home for leftovers. Love when you can eat some good food and make it a next meal! All for $26! The place was nice, the girls serving were very nice and accommodating!!!Def recommend for a good Vietnamese place! Cheers...

We were looking for something to eat around Chinook and I remembered there was a Vietnamese restaurant before 58 Ave (driving North on MacLeod), but it was closed so we kept going and saw a little Vietnamese restaurant in a strip mall on the west side of MacLeod and decided to go there and I'm very glad we did, because it's a real treasure!

Service was great, food items were served very quickly, the portions were big, and the food was definitely delicious!

I had the shrimp fried rice and my daughter had the grilled shrimp and spring roll on vermicelli and before the tip the price was less than $30, which I thought it was very reasonable.

If we're around than area again, I think we'll be visiting one more time for some...
