Watt Street Bistro

Had dinner here on a Friday, there were a few dine in customers but the place was being overwhelmed by take away and pickup orders that our food took some considerable time to arrive. The Pho was ok but was not piping hot when served, the salad rolls were good as-well as the dipping sauce, crab cream cheese wanton is similar to what you typically find in other places that serve them, the Bahn mi was disappointing and I would not order it again here, for good Bahn Mi in this area, go over to Grand Donuts (they also have good Pho) also our order of Pad Thai got mixed up and we received some Chow Mein instead. We were seated in a table that was very cold because every time the door opens a blast of cold air hits us, it was so bad that I started wearing my jacket. The food here is ok and reasonably priced, thats why there are a lot of take out customers and skip but maybe because of this they are focused on churning out food and not able to maintain their usual quality.

We got a variety of food, as we normally do when we try a new spot. Not shown are the rice salad wraps with peanut sauce, which were generously sized and held up the next day. Photos include : Dill pickle spears Mac and cheese bites Vegetarian pad thai - Spicy but not overly Tofu and eggplant - semi sweet, nicely cooked tofu Curry tofu - nice amount of veggies and tofu Side of rice came with the meal. Overall we loved the food, including the american fair. The spice level was great for our palettes and the portions were large enough that we had food for a few days. Our favorite was the eggplant dish.

I have never had anything bad or any mistakes from this place. I don’t know how to eat this thing but I just ripped the noodles in half and poured the sauce and veggies on top and they softened up after 10 minutes or so. It was fun, messy and delicious. #44 I’ve had their deluxe vermicelli bowl 100 times and it’s to die for.

Already excited to go back! We split the pork and shrimp salad rolls, and thought these were excellent. The 4 salad rolls are approximately 500 grams of food and are enough for a meal on their own. I got the beef pad Thai and this was 1000g of food, more than enough for 2 people. My partner got the house special vermicelli which had chicken, grilled shrimp, charbroiled pork and a pork patty, and included yummy spring rolls. She missed having fresh basil leaves, but loved it otherwise. Amazing value for the amount of food and the flavour.
