a taste of vietnam

this place is a joke. order a beef noodle soup which i always do when i go to any vietnamese restaurant, the soup has absolutely no taste, it was so bad that i didn't finished it. service? what service, she took my order, brought my soup to my table, and that was it, never see her again, she was busy on the phone. had to wait another 5 minutes just for the bill. never again. suck big time. 0/5

really good food - better than doan's and less expensive. one of the few places in sherwood park worth eating at.

no service at all. don't expect any service here, food was just ok, passable, but something is missing, don't know what spicy it is, but sure not there. waited a long time for my bill, and there was only 3 tables all together.

always a good meal. salad rolls are amazing. great service. favourite place to eat when visiting sherwood park

our favourite!. over many years we have eating vietnamese at least once per month and have tried about 10 different restaurants in the area. i usually get the vermicelli bowls and spring rolls. well, we tried this resto about 5 yrs ago and love it! fresh, not greasy, just tops for edm vietnamese in our books.

i have been here several times and have not been disappointed. having been to several asain countries i would say the experience is typical of family run restaurants of a similar caliber. you are going there for the food, not the attention. though, i must say the service has always been good for us.

its not much in appearance. and the service is a mixed bag. but the food is usually pretty good, and will satisfy a craving when you have one. not on the top of my list, but we visit there from time to time.

the lemongrass chicken is the best! it takes 4-5 minutes and you have your lunch. very useful for a quick lunch when working. always delicious.

i come here again and again. it's a favourite spot for lunch with my gym friends. i keep forgetting to write a review though, so let me remedy that now!

staff is friendly but often hurried as this busy place. it's busy for a reason though...the food is great. meals come out quick despite the large number of customers.

this time around i had a spicy favourite: the satay rice noodle soup. top it with basil, bean sprouts and lemon juice and it's the perfect spoonful on a chilly afternoon.

in the past i've had the winton soup and chicken breast soup, both delicious. another favourite is the lemongrass chicken (part of the vermicelli entrees)...a huge bowl of noodles and chicken. i've also really enjoyed their spring rolls, salad rolls and onion cakes.

i would definitely recommend this restaurant...just get there early!

stopping in for pho. beef and noodles for one and spicy chili shrimp for the other with spring roll appetizers for two. we asked for all three at the same time and they arrived as requested. soup is hot and flavorful. chili soup is spicy as promised. service is friendly and quick. store front is not fancy but tables are clean. value is high at this restaurant

have been coming here fairly regularly for several years. the food is always very good, dine in or take out. our favorites are:

-the ginger beef which is quite crispy, nice sauce, and has green and red peppers, onion, and pineapple chunks
-special fried rice which has egg, peas, and little baby shrimp
-the beef and broccoli

have also tried some of the noodle dishes and they were excellent!

delicious! i had rice noodles and prawns. the sauce was very good (drool) my bf had #14 which i had a taste of as well and it reminded me of vietnam, so they hit the nail with the hammer on that one. would definitely give it a try!

my wife and i enjoyed this little place. service wasn't great. seemed like they were understaffed for how busy they were everytime we have been there. food was acceptable. not stellar...not bad. as with most asian food...the doggy bag makes for a great bag lunch the following day. prices were fair.

horrible service......food was very bland..... this was my first ( and last ) time going to this place, the service was horrible, the food was expensive for the portion size. the pho was almost cold when i got it, green onion cakes were fried to a crisp, and the iced coffee tasted like street water ( yes i've had street water drinks in vietnam, and they were better). my advise, save your money and go somewhere else, your tummy deserves the best, and this place is not it!

extremely disappointed. i have been to taste of vietnam in sherwood park a few times. the first few times were fine, albeit extremely slow and disinterested service (however it was obviously good enough to go back again) but i was extremely disappointed this past time.

i do not eat pork, i haven't for years. it's not a religious thing and i'm not allergic, i just do not eat pork. it's difficult to explain but it is incredibly important to me that i do not. anyways, my boyfriend and i went to taste of vietnam and i ordered the bun ba mau vermicelli bowl, chicken only, and i specified no pork. i also specified that the spring rolls be vegetarian. fast forward to me being about 75% done my meal, when the server comes by and tells me that the kitchen made a mistake and my spring rolls were not vegetarian. i am of course appalled, upset, and feel ill. the server does not apologize, does not offer to fix it, nothing.

so, we then go to the front to pay (since they took ages to bring us our bill) and i ask to speak with someone in charge regarding the error they made. i ask how they can compensate us considering this is a pretty big issue to me (what if i had been allergic?!). the lady offers to take our salad rolls off the bill (a $7 value) and that's it. didn't even compensate my meal.

if you have any dietary restrictions do not go here! they obviously do not care. needless to say, they have lost my business.
