ngoc van

salt for dayzzzzz..phobroth tasted of immense salt. if you like sucking on a rock salt, this joint is for you. no complaints about service, i felt welcomed.

regina's food scene is a disappointment - suitable for the city conditions. over-priced rubbish everywhere. i do enjoy cheap buffets throughout the city though.

disgusting. terrible service and the quality was horrible. ordered satay beefphoand i've never ever hadphowith tomatoes and lettuce in it. the broth was thick and weird tasting. my best friend is vietnamese so i know what authenticphotastes like. and it was terrible. sorry. dirty cutlery but the bubble tea was decent.

good stuff. ordered the duck-fried rice,phowith beef and beef tripe, and the cantonese chow mein for takeout. they give you large portions, and all dishes were very good, esp. the duck. hard to find an asian restaurant in the city which offers duck dishes (can't think of any others ones aside from peking house and new town). anyways, judging by the crowd lined up at the till to order it seems like a popular place. the girl working the till was ridiculously cute too. i'll be ordering from here again for sure.

average. salty soups. thephomeat is tough. this is as good as it gets for regina. thephohere is not authentic compared to toronto vancouver calgary edmonton. regina has no authentic vietnamese restaurants. all the restaurants in regina are labelled " authentic viet chinese and thai cuisine" but it's far from being authentic.

this place makes the bestphosoup. it comes pretty close to what you would find in calgary, who has really goodphosoup. the vermicelli here is good too but my favorite is the soup and their subs. they are so fresh and reasonably priced. all the portions are big. these subs definitely beat subways subs.

edit 07/06/2017  i still go to n'goc van regularly, and had lunch there 2 days ago.  still fabulous!

had lunch at n'gpocthe best littlephohouse in regina!. n'goc van is my favourite because it offers the tastiest comfort food consistently at a reasonable price. they offer a wide variety of traditional soups from the different regions of vietnam and surrounding countries as well as the usual vermicelli bowls and entrees. soup specials weekday lunchtime are $6.45 and regular sized bowls are $7 - $9 with the most expensive entrees like lemon chicken only being $12. it's been a while since prices have gone up so i bet they'll move 50 cents or so within the year. sometimes it's packed so if i think it's going to be busy i'll go just before or after the rush. they started off years ago in another location half a block west selling bahn mi, (vietnamese submarines), and about 4 or 5 entrees with one table and three chairs. now they feature about 10 different kinds of subs, (personal favourites are combination and beef sate). bahn mi is a legacy of the french occupation of vietnam featuring cold cuts, pate, cucumber, shredded carrot and cilantro on a small baguette. they are nearly the perfect take out food! in short, i have too little time to say all the good things i'd like to about n'goc van and the wonderful people who run it.
