Gave this place a try after being disappointed with another Vietnamese restaurant in St. Albert.
We were pleasantly surprised to find it busy on a weekday and the menu had a lot of variety including a kids option for Pho with meatballs, brisket, and no scallion and beverage for $5! We opted for plain wonton soup for our toddler, but none the less impressive!
My husband had the adult version of the Pho with meatballs and brisket - the large was under $8. I had the vermicelli bowl with steak, shrimp, and spring rolls which was $10.
The fish sauce was seasoned nicely and I appreciated the 3 options of hot sauce on our table in addition to hoisson sauce.
I enjoyed everything except the shrimp... next time, I'll just order the steak and spring roll vermicelli for $2 less - $8 (a great price!).
Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor.
The one thing I didn't like... I asked for a half cup of rice for my toddler to have with her bowl of wont ton soup... and we were charged $2.00 for 10 cents worth of rice.
I did notice that their menu had bubble tea! We ran out of time on this particular visit but I look forward to trying their bubble tea next time! There was an entire page of specialty drinks at the back of the menu - smoothies, shakes, pearl tea, etc.
We will definitely return again - although, I'll skip the $2.00 1/2 cup of plain white rice, lol! -

I don't usually head to St. Albert for pho, but I had to be there for business reasons on such a cold and snowy day that I was craving a bowl of Vietnamese noodle soup badly. Pho Anh Sang is one of the handful of Vietnamese restaurants in St. Albert and was reasonably close to where we had to be, so we ventured there for lunch.
The interior looked pretty much like most of the pho places I have been - plain tables and chairs with no-frills as far as decorating goes. Menu choices and prices are also in line with other Vietnamese restaurants. Bowls of pho will run you six or seven dollars depending on size, vermicelli bowls around seven or eight, and there is a variety of other dishes incorporating meat and noodles.
We started off with an order of onion cakes. They were served hot and crispy in a basket, without being greasy. A couple of plates would have been nice, but otherwise the cakes were quite enjoyable.
Of course, I had a small bowl of Pho Tai (medium steak). It was piping hot from start to finish, had a decent amount of meat and noodles, and a good tasting broth. I wasn't blown away by any one element of the soup, but it certainly hit the spot.
He had a grilled chicken vermicelli bowl. I tasted a small piece of chicken and it was good, and he was overall happy with his meal. To me, the bowl seemed small, but with a final bill that was only around $20 before the tip, it was economical.
If I am in St. Albert and crave pho, I will definitely head back to Pho Anh Sang and I recommend others do the same. -
