Little Sister

I was excited to try a new Viet place in the Glen, however I was sorely dissapointed. I ordered the small Pho, however what I was presented with was beyond small. The broth while tasty, was not truly 'pho' and the noodles were overcooked and broken. The food was generally overpriced and undersized. As a Thai-Viet place it's average and the service was nice, however in regards purely to the Viet dishes, I was sadly disappointed.

Service was standard, good decor and everything BUT the cringe worthy point was the food. The two of us ordered the pho, one large and one small as we would normally at Springvale. Boy, the portions were small. I think even the main would just barely feed my child, let alone an adult? The noodles were not fresh, it was cooked till it lumped together, no vegetable sides that came with it, although there were bits and pieces of green vegetables in the soup. The saving grace was the soup which was quite tasty and no msg aftertaste. Also the meat was very fresh.

The service was friendly, and the restaurant looks nice. However, the food I had ordered was not. My friends and I had pho and the soup was disturbingly sweet. Also if there is pho on the menu then there should definitely have condiments on the table for customers but all there was was hoisin sauce to add to the soup! I got the small plate for $10 and boy was it small! I also ordered the pork belly bun bao and I was disappointed at how much it lacked flavour in the pork belly. The pork belly was deep fried and tasted like it was not marinated or had anything added to it, and not to mentioned they had forgotten about the order and we had to ask for it so we ended up waiting for it to be cooked (this was no big deal). Prices for the food and the quantity (and quality) is not worth it given the portion sizes are very small and would be hard to share even though the menu is made for sharing.
