Pho V - Vietnamese Restaurant — Restaurant in Ottawa

To the management at Pho V :

We used to eat at your restaurant often , and order take out regularly. But the last 2 times we were there , we couldn't get any food.l! Yes you read this correctly. Your restaurant isn't serving food ! The first instance was about 4 weeks ago , we walked in at around 7:35 on Friday night . We were told you were closed , so we left . So today we went in at 7:12. And , to our surprise , before even saying hello , the very same person told us you were closing soon ! Again this was 7:12. The website states closure is at 8, so having to hurry at this point, 45 mins from closing time , was really unacceptable . At 7:12, menus were closed ,and we were ready to order . There were two tables ,of 2 ,one leaving and the other finishing their food at this time To say the service is bad in your establishment is an understatement. But unfortunately this is what you get with allowing unsupervised, impolite teenagers to run your business. We won't return. Too bad , as we will miss your good food. But your service has taken a huge nose dive. Your two previously...

I found this restaurant by accident. After walking for almost 5km, the weather was getting colder and colder and I was really craving something with hot broth. I thought of Pho immediately because it's my hometown food 😂😂

I used google to search for information about Vietnamese restaurants around and Pho V appeared in the first line. I was so starving that I thought I could eat 2 bowls of Pho. But I changed my mind when I saw a bowl here 😂 A medium size is enough for me.

The flavour of Pho here can achieve 85-90% of pho in Vietnam. Very fragrant, sweet broth. I ordered a special bowl so I could try all the toppings and get an overview.

I love shrimp wrapped here, very crispy and delicious when dipping in sweet chilli sauce.

Perfect meal for dinner 👍👍👍

The service was a little bit slow but I could understand because they had many orders for shipping, and the quality of food was deserving for me to wait.

Will I comeback: YESSS!! I will try others 🤤🤤

Moreover, I felt like I was in Vietnam when I came here. Peaceful atmosphere and Vietnamese...

Solid tasting and well priced Pho.

I've ordered from here a couple times and have always been happy with the food. Well packaged and well portioned. I typically order the Beef, sometimes get the tripe. This time around though was the first time I dined in person, and I went with the chicken pho, along with a side of BBQ chicken summer rolls. Both were great. The summer rolls came first, accompanied with a peanut sauce. I chomped those down no problem. The chicken pho arrived shortly after I finished and was the perfect temperature. I was surprised at how much chicken and noodles there were (in a good way). I find some places skimp out on the meat, but I just kept finding chicken strips and noodles.

The service was great as well. Not sure what the waitress' name is but she was very nice and very attentive.

Definitely a nice spot. About as good as the pho you'll get downtown in China town. If you live or are staying in the East-end of Ottawa, I find it's a great option if you don't want to drive to China...
