    When I think Pho House I think 2 things--yummy and cheap!

    I have never actually partaken in the Pho soups as I'm not so much a soup fan.  For me what really rocks here is the noodle dishes.  The servings are huge with tons of veggies and delish sauces.  I have never been able to finish a whole portion in one sitting.  

    I think though that the service here is pretty non-exsistent.  No one says hello or asks how things are, they just plop you at a table, throw down the menus and then come around a few minutes later to take your order, and again no pleasentries, just a 'ok'.  The tables aren't set up either, the server come over and drops everyting off after you've ordered, and they don't even do that nicely, they kinda just throw everything in a heap at the end of the table.  

    However, the noodles remain very high on my most-yummy list!

    Terrible service, food isn't great.

    My wife was delivered the wrong type of spring roll and despite telling two servers, who said they'd get it corrected, it was not.

    Probably ther most expensive pho place to which I've been.

    I think this must have been the worst restaurant experience of my ENTIRE LIFE! I'm not kidding... wow the service and the food was a disaster... I had some mango seafood dish... raw hard as rock mango... the seafood was the minced seafood you use for seafood salad!! a few shrimp that tasted like DIRT because they were obviously thawed and refrozen.... he squid in the dish looked like worms and tentacles with strange scores... OMG... I wanted to throw up! I will NEVER visit this place again! Is there a -10 star rating? Oh and we received the bill before we were done picking on the thing they called food on our table!!! VERY NICE!

    I've been to this location a few times after my initial failed experience and I have to admit they've gotten better.

    This place still pales in comparison to its cheaper and tastier downtown competition but for Etobicoke it's not bad.

    This was my first Pho experience. I know i know... what took me so long, right? Well, i am a big fan of noodles, and i love broth, but i dunno... Pho never really pulled me in. Today i dove into the Pho.
    The place was really nicely decorated and very clean and crisp. I started with the Vegetable Spring rolls. So yummy! Then I got a small bowl of the Rare Beef Pho. It was ok. I tried it before i added anything to it, but was then told that i needed to squeeze a bunch of the lime, basil and coriander into it. Pretty good. But what really kicked it up for me was the addition of the much beloved Sriracha Rooster sauce. Ahh, much better. Before the Rooster kick, it was lacking a little somethin' for me.
    I'll definitely go back to Pho House again, but i do want to try a new dish.

    There aren't many good Pho places in the West end but Pho house is decent. They have a typical Thai/Vietnamese menu with a few Pho soups to choose from.

    When this place opened up last year, the Pho wasn't that great and had too much ginger. But they've since imrpoved the taste and it's quite good.

    If I'm craving Pho and don't want to trek it to Chinatown, Pho house is where I go.

    Randomly out West of the city and stopped by this place. Decor is very clean and modern but that was the best part.

    Spring rolls were surprisingly tasty---shrimp filled too.

    But then the pho was bland and the pad thai came out in a soggy mess. Not great but overall could pass through if you're hungry.

    I love Pho soups and this is the best Pho place I have found so far in Toronto. The Pho House is located in Etobicoke, close to Kipling subway station in Six Points Plaza, close to Shoppers Drug Mart. This place is very well decorated, looks bright and clean. The soups arrive very fast and yummy.. I love basil and lime in it. Usually I choose chicken or veggie soup. Last time we took chicken/veggie soup.. but they charged extra $2 for veggies and there were like only 2 little broccoli, 1 mushroom and 2 snowpeas. That was little dissapointing as other places gives you free veggies if you order half half and there are much more vegetables inside. But still its a good deal as large soup (can be shared for 2) costs only about $8. They have also some nice chicken/veggie/rice dishes.

    The decor is indeed nice and clean and friendly service.
    Pho tastes like it came out of a package. Big servings on the desserts though.
    Still no good pho in the west end :(

    I eat here pretty much every single time I am in Toronto. The Pho is always consistently good as is the service. The Vermicelli noodle dishes are also a home run. Everything is super cheap. The value here is unbeatable.

    I don't eat beef so I don't go for Pho for the beef soups. I went here looking for a nice healthy vegetable soup and this restaurant had a great vege noodle soup. So delicious with the basil and lime. It was also very clean and packed with people which is a good sign. Location is great - right across from the Kipling subway station.

    The wonton soup smelled and looked really good. The broth was just right but the actual wonton wasn't the best i've ever had. I'd go back if I was in the neighborhood. Good service and the food came out really quick.

    good pho for the west-end.
    very clean, very unusual for asian places, especally vietnamese restaurants. however, usually nice asian restaurants aren't authentic but this place is run by true viets.

    don't get their thai mango salad though, it REALLY sucks. it is DRENCHED in fish sauce or whatever.
