Phu-yen Restaurant

This is one of the few Vietnamese/Asian restaurants in Ottawa that have a patio (kanata noodle house nearby also had one). The bonus of this restaurant is that they serve a variety of Vietnamese, Chinese and Thai dishes. The Chinese chicken and broccoli over rice was delicious, the crispy beef dish was good also but a bit too sweet for my tastes. We also ordered Vietnamese ice coffee and that is why I'm taking off one star; this was not the usual authentic drip coffee, it is the 3 in 1 instant coffee with a pungent aftertaste... I hate this specific coffee brand. Going to a restaurant to order this coffee is usually a joy and no other Vietnamese restaurant I've been to in Ottawa has done this shortcut.

Phu-Yen is my new fave now. Their sweet and sour pork is better now than the first time we had it. And yes, it was excellent. Also, the Szechuan chicken is tasty -- first time I had it and it's a yes for me. Chicken fried rice too is definitely a YES. They gave us free steamed rice too. They're a lil pricier than the previous restau that we used to go BUT the serving size is worth the price. 👌 Overall, gustatory rate is 5 🌟, presentation is 5 🌟, freshness of food is 5 🌟, value of money is 5 🌟, staff is 5 🌟 (very polite). P.S. you nailed the sweet and sour pork this time just how I like it. Thank you Phu-Yen. Will be ordering soon.

The Phu-Yen Restaurant serves Vietnamese and Chinese Food. Please note: Covid 19 Protocols in place here. Stoped in for lunch today, my Niece and I had the Pho Noodle Soup (with rare beef) Bean Sprouts and Basil we added siracha hot sauce. It was so good,( I want more lol). I also had some Chinese Food, Egg Rolls- Chicken Fried Rice Almond Guy Ding and sweet and sour chicken balls. Everything was absolutely delicious very hot and fresh ingredients. We are outside today as it was beautiful out. You can dine in, the decor is nice the staff very friendly. Clean washrooms. I can't wait to go back and try some different dishes, I know I won't be disappointed. Cheers!

Made a pickup order and was it ever a mistake. Garbage food by garbage people Food was tasteless, missing salt! Who misses salt? I had to season the food myself. I shouldn’t have to when I’m ordering out. Frozen Asian food from grocery store would taste better. Staff was also extremely rude when picking up order. Bad attitude, it’s like they didn’t want to work. Not worth it, avoid at all costs.

Good lunch restaurant with many good choices in the menu. The food is fresh and tasty, the service is good and pleasant. The specific is Vietnamese but at least one third of the choices in the menu are chinese. Prices quite decent. The look is a little bit old but it kind of integrate with the specific.
