Hu Tieu Mi Gia - Ottawa

The best noodle soup in town, great service my parents they come here all the time they told me their chicken and beef broth are very good true taste of Vietnam

I hesitate to write this review: this is the best Pho house in town and I don't want to share this amazing find lest I'm no longer able to get a table at dinner time. The owner is friendly and deeply proud of his homemade stock that makes the foundation of the many tasty items on the menu. I've eaten here over a half dozen times, ordering something new each time and I've yet to find something that didn't completely amaze me.

My wife and I decided to try a new restaurant last night that didn't have "Pho" in the name. The exterior of the restaurant looked modern, so we decided to give it a try. The inside wasn't as nice as we had hoped, but we decided to stay and give it a chance. We ordered some rolls, wonton, a submarine sandwich, and fried noodles. The broth we tried was the best I have ever had at a restaurant - it was clearly homemade and extremely flavorful. The noodles were also great, with a good balance of flavors and not too salty or spicy. I'm not sure if they use less MSG, but I didn't feel the usual fatigue or puffiness I sometimes get after eating Asian food. Overall, this restaurant has become our favorite spot in town!

This is one of my favourite restaurants, and I can always depend on a high level of flavour in the meals here. I especially love ordering a large bowl of wonton soup (which I've never liked at other places, but this one is so flavourful), and a grilled beef banh mi (Vietnamese submarine sandwich). The wontons are always fresh tasting, the broth is savoury, and I crave this like no other soup. The subs are great; the bread is always soft and warm. I highly recommend trying the lotus leaf rice dish, and the crispy noodle stir fries as well. I love this place!

This is probably one of my favourites when it comes to Vietnamese food. Their extensive menu covers various phos, pad Thais, stirfries, Bùns, and wrap your own spring rolls. I chose A2 to start which consisted of two rice paper spring rolls with shrimp and peanut sauce. That sauce is lovely! Nice and thick and a perfect addition to the spring roll. For my main, I ordered the M12: a chicken broth based pho with ground pork, sliced BBQ pork, shrimp and veggies. So flavourful!
