I Love Pho 2

I dined in and tried their 'pho suon bo' - beef back rib with rice noodle soup (labelled as "ribs backbone with rice noodle soup" - item #200) for the 1st time today (late afternoon on Sept 3rd, 2024). The backbone rib was slightly tough to chew but was still easy enough to remove from the bone. I do wish that it was more tender/fell off the bone. However, since it only came in a large size, it was still worth the price ($18.95). It's not often where you can find an authentic pho restaurant in Peel region that serves beef back ribs for under $20, let alone being given a bountiful amount of protein with pho (my order came with 2 backbone ribs and 1 boneless rib). The broth was tasty and flavourful and I also got the deep-fried spring rolls (item #101). The spring rolls had a light and crispy shell without being too oily and had a good amount of pork x shrimp filling. Service was efficient and reasonable. I did, however, notice a couple of fruit flies flying above in my seating area (soft seating booth closer to the cashier area). It was a bit of a nuisance, but at least they didn't go into my food/tea even though they tried. Other than that, this place is worth giving a shot if you're ever craving for authentic pho or if you're really hungry and just want to savour some protein.

Located in a plaza near Dundas and Dixie in Mississauga. We dined with 4 adults, quickly seated on a weekday evening. Place was clean and offered lots of seating and a couple of tv monitors on the wall for watching. The menu is on a tablet given by the server. Hot tea was free and offered unlimited refills if you finish the pot. Tea was delicious and hot. We ordered the broken rice with chicken and steamed egg, broken rice with pork chop, fried egg, and bean curd, broken rice with porkchop and chicken, and vermicelli with spring roll and chicken. The rice orders come with a broth soup. I had the broken rice with porkchop, fried egg, and bean curd. The rice was tasty, porkchop was flavourful with Lemongrass and with fried egg on the side along with lettuce and Carrots.i was satisfied and full from my meal. The broth was salty, but not in a bad way. Everyone also appeared to enjoy their meals and there were no complaints. The portions are quite big. The pricing is fair, considering inflation. I have gone to this pho place a few times in the past and have never been disappointed. The only thing is the server didn't come as often and have to flag down when you need something.

Grabbed late lunch at Photo 2, recommended by my son. The tea served was cold, but was quickly replaced with a hot one. Food was served fast enough, the food was good and tastier than the usual Vietnamese restaurants.

I was visiting Sherway gardens and after shopping I was craving Pho. I decided to just randomly look up on Google to see what vietnamese places were nearby. I decided on this place because pics look good and the positive reviews. So this place looked promising. I got the large pho special and large bun bo hue and fried spring rolls. I will say I was happy with the servings. The portions were generous and the prices were not bad. Especially with how everything is going up these days. We enjoyed the food, especially the bun bo hue as it was very flavourful. The meat quality in both dishes were fresh. The broths was were nice hot and I liked how the aluminum bowls kept the temp good throughout my meal. I will definitely be back

Fast service. We came in as a group of 10. The restaurant served Phở in no time. Phởl is in a unique bowl made up by stainless steel or something.

Went to the OG I love Pho place on burnhamthorpe, and it was really good but so busy I had to try this placel. This place too started to get busy and a line started up right after we got our table. Food was good but the original location was better, except too long of a wait for seats. Staff were around but less attentive here. We also ordered the blended jackfruit and Avocado shakes, my only complaint was that it had big chunks of ice in it, which means less drink, in the already small/medium sized cup. The pho was good, meat was tender and fall off the bone, broth was lighter but decent. Little to much noodles for my liking. But good overall. Everything else was yummy.

Very authentic Vietnamese food with lots of speciality. Even I had 3 kinds of noodle soup, i don't feel there is any MSG after dinner. The appetizers platters is very good, the leaf wrapped beef is very juicy. It takes a while for the food to arrive, luckily we were in a hurry.

Ordered yellow curry chicken with steamed rice, and didn't get curry chicken. Ate it anyway because it tasted good. It was tender chicken in a brown broth with potatoes and a side of steamed rice. It was half right. Can't complain because it was good. I'm afraid the server didn't understand me. I'll give them a chance on the second visit. I won't be picky when I come here.

The food was amazing and the service was fine, the restraunt was clean and quiet, only thing that need to change is free wifi, I"ll give this a 8/10

my bad for not asking assume, good chicken pho has white meat... this had terrible cuts of gross gristle, fat and dark meat excellent broth and quick

Prices went up sonce they changed owners in sept 2023. Food still tastes the same but with a 14% markup. I will admit myself will be coming back less. Service is good, the place is clean, service is A+. Would be good if your brought somebody along that know Vietnamese. One thing to note, on my visit today the place was EMPTYYYYY. Noted this was also the last few cases.... this isnt normal. I hope they last, but im sure the community isnt accepting this, its just pho at the end of the day. 4 stars for location and the flavor 14-17$ average before shrinkflation 12-14 prior.

Absolutely love this place as one of the most authentic Vietnamese cuisine experiences in the Sauga area. The service is dependent on what day and time you go. As for the atmosphere, they have some nice music to jam to while you eat and/or wait for your food to come out

Our go to restaurant for beef 7 ways and their hotpot. My favourite is the Lau Thai, but my parents love their canh chua. One hotpot order is enough to feed 4-6 and you'll be stuffed + you can take the leftover stock home. The canh chua hotpot is a special request bcuz this isn't on their menu , but they do have the regular soup by the bowl. The hotpot toppings comes pre mixed for each soup base; the Lau Thai has mussel, fish, beef balls, 2 types of shrimp, squid, fried fish cake, soft tofu, cabbage, water spinach & vermicelli. The canh chau has bean sprouts, elephant ear stalk, tomato, okra, pineapple and vermicelli.

Recently came back for dine-in with a few friends. Service from Michelle and her team was fantastic! And the food was delicious. We tried Banh Hoi for the first time and learned how to wrap them properly. The rice paper roll platter came with a generous serving of fresh herbs. The special soup noodle dishes are SO GOOD. Highly recommend 429. Bun Oc (Whelk Soup) and the 429A. Bun Cha Ca I Love Pho (I Love Pho Style Fried Fish Cake Soup. We also enjoyed our drinks: fresh coconut Juice, and avocado shake. Will definitely return!

Great Pho place, which has a great Pho variety. Overall it was phontastic. I love Pho.

First time trying here and the pho soup is much better than the store I tried in Ottawa The soup is clear and has a distinctive taste which is good The pho noodles stays the same even when I leave it overnight in the fridge For the price, the portion is huge The banh cuon has a traditional taste of the North. The dipping sauce is excellent Would try again in the near future

Service - TERRIBLE. I'm not from the area, heck, not even from the country so wasn't sure if this type of service was typical. A relative who is a local recommended the restaurant so we decided to give it a try. I walked in with a large party (10+ ppl) on a Monday evening to an almost empty restaurant. Took a few minutes for us to be greeted and I told the host/server that we are still waiting for more people to come. He just rolled his eyes and walked away. We left the restaurant and came back with the rest of the party about 10 minutes later and we were seated at two tables adjacent to each other. When it came time to ordering, we wrote down all of our orders on one order form (mind you, this is the first time I've ever had to do this at a full service restaurant). The same server comes over and we told him our orders are on the form and that we just realized maybe we had to write down the second table's order on another form. Instead of saying "yes, please do that", he huffed and threw his hands up in the air and that itself confirmed that we should have written the second table's order on a separate form and we did just so. While waiting for our food, a loud argument erupted. A dine-in customer yelled at the same server for ignoring his wife's multiple requests. The server yelled right back at the customer and this was going back and forth for a good 3 minutes. I had never seen anything like this before. Not sure what eventually happened between them as our food came and got distracted by it but the unhappy customer and his family were still dining when we left the restaurant. The server must be a relative of the owner or maybe even the owner himself because I could not imagine any employee having the audacity to treat their customers like this, unless he was wanting to get fired on the spot. He just looked like he didn't want to be there and all of his customers were a nuisance to him. Food - not great but also not horrendously inedible. Broth for noodle soups were lacking in flavor. I've eaten Viet food my entire life so I know. Beef balls for pho were a weird smaller size (must be a Canadian thing) and were tough to chew. Beef slices for the pho were also on the thicker and tough side. Should have been a red flag when I saw that the restaurant also serve Chinese and Thai food. Only thing I would give them is that the portion sizes are generous, at least for the noodle soups. But then again, if the food's not great, why would you want more of it?

You know this place is good when the customers are also Vietnamese. I stopped in here for lunch. Order the pho and spring rolls. When they bring tea, just a tip, clearly say you want hot tea (say it loud through your mask).

The place was clean and presentable, food was good and the service was good. The price was reasonable also.

The best bun mam in the gta, and probably one of my favourite Vietnamese restaurant as well. The staffs are also very accommodating and friendly. They have a patio for dinning and they offer a fair portion size for take out.

Finally arrived here and the place is open. Last time I tried, they closed slightly before their stated hours of operation. I tried the Pho, in its takeout form, they packaged it really well. I just heated up the broth and put all the other ingredients in a large bowl. Pretty decent tasting pho. Not the best pho I've had but certainly better than average. I will explore the other places sauga have to offer. I would try dine-in when it opens up again. I also had the broken rice and chicken chop. It was delicious. The vegetables lacking though.

One of my go to vietnamese restaurants in Mississauga for pho and vermicelli! Love how much meat/toppings their pho and vermicelli comes with, the ratio of noodles to meat is absolutely perfect and always fresh. Soup base is very flavourful, also get my vermicelli with their homemade vietnamese meatballs! I've been to this location 3-4 times and every time has been consistently good. The price is right and value is there. Smoothie durian here is also done very well, bursting full of durian flavour!

My two colleagues and I went out for lunch a couple of Fridays ago. Our original plan was to eat at Dairy Queen. When we got to the plaza, I noticed a sign for I Love Pho. I was intrigued. So were my colleagues. We completely changed our lunch plans and hit this restaurant. It's a good sign of a decent pho place when it is packed at noon. We got the last available table. Yay! I pointed out what I normally get as far as pho goes. I like the rare beef and beef balls pho. They followed suit. It's nice that they trust me! One of them ordered the small size. The other person and I went with the medium. We looked at the table to my right. The couple had ordered the large, which looked like they could have both dunked their heads in the bowl and they would have fit. It was huge! We also got the four-piece pork and chicken spring rolls. I filled out everything and handed the little slip of paper to our server. The pho broth was fragrant and perfect. I immediately knew that I was going to enjoy my pho. The rare beef and beef balls were exactly right. The bean sprouts, mint, and lime wedge were fresh. My colleagues enjoyed their bowls of pho, too. I always feel like you are not eating pho right if you don't splatter your food on your shirt. We all did that. Or, perhaps we are just slobs and want to feel better about ourselves. Our spring rolls did not come. I flagged a server to ask about them. It's funny how I had that item at the top of the filled-out form, but they were fine getting our pho orders correct. Eventually, our spring rolls came. They were yummy. Had we got our rolls without my flagging someone, I would have given this place a full five stars. It's a decent place for pho. It's one of the better places that I have been to in a while. I can't wait to return here soon. (230)

I Love Pho 2 is doing a pretty good job with ensuring there's distancing between patrons and minimal contact for communal items! We'd been craving pho for a while and the options near home just weren't satisfying enough. Based on their first location's rapport, we dropped into this location over the weekend. Brightly lit, simple décor that's been upgraded for distancing measures, no frills experience. The tables were kept clean and patrons sat in the booths on either side of the shop - the booth walls have been extended upwards with clear plastic barriers that served the purpose but didn't obstruct view. There were quite a few tables occupied actually, so good to see that business was still happening! Menu was on an electronic device - easy to read, swipe, and easy to clean off! No more paper menus or laminated sheets with food stuck on them. The health survey is attached to the order sheet - so no chance of missing that either! Once we'd ordered, eating utensils, napkins, and sauces were provided on a tray to minimize contact - no more communal containers with someone else's mess, or risking prior patrons having played with all the spoons! Pho bowls come in medium or large - a 75c difference only. Primarily the change is in the amount of noodles and broth you get, the toppings do scale up but not in a super noticeable way. The broth was clear and flavourful, the toppings were good, and notably the tripe was fresh and cut thinly which was very nice! Many times in the past I've suffered slimey, elastic tripe that just won't give, but this was thinly sliced and had good crunch. Being not too busy, this will join my roster of go-to locations for pho when I'm in Mississauga!

Overly priced for what it is worth. The portion size was less than most pho restaurants in the area, the large looked like a medium. The quality isn't so great either, I'll explain further into the review. While looking at the menu - my boyfriend made a comment saying "HOLY $12 for a Large bowl?!" One of our friends goes, "WHAT?!" Clearly overpriced already. We got the fresh rolls which is $10 for four rolls. My boyfriend and I ordered a large thinking we could split between two people and have some apps. The other couple did too. We were all wrong. We were left hungry. One of the guys who were with us mentioned the bowl was a medium style and it is not the large like he usually sees. The fresh rolls were pure lettuce, where's my noods? The pork sausage was flavourless. Super disappointing. The spoons and chopsticks were stained and dirty. We had to go through every single one to find a decent one to eat with. Now I can check I Love Pho off the to try list and to never go back again. There's no value and taste, what's the point?

I came back after a couple of years and the food is still on point. Service is still minimal but the food is still the highlight. We came on a weekday after 2pm and the place was not busy and we were able to get a seat fairly quickly. We ordered the Pho and the Broken Rice dish. Portions size are still big. Reading the recent reviews, they were concerned with the cleanliness of the place. I have to attest that we noticed flies around the tables. Something to keep in mind for next time. #13 of 2019

Best meal there yet. Stir fried squid with lemongrass and fiery Thai chili. Beautifully done, good array of seasoned vegetables (crispy) and rice with a small soup on the side. Hubby had the goat with a medley of vegetables predominated with celery leaves. SO GOOD. Busy place. We are regulars. Warm and welcoming environment. Nice staff and management; they treat their customers well, here. This place serves 100% authentic Vietnamese (and Thai) food.

I consider our meal here to be some of the worst pho I've ever had in my life. This location was so dirty; From the floor to the tables, cups and cutlery. There was a foul, offensive smell coming from god knows where. And no, I'm Vietnamese - it wasn't fish sauce. This place was simply unclean. I should've taken the hint and left without ordering anything. Unfortunately, I mistakenly gave them the benefit of the doubt and we ended up getting sick from their food! Not only are they unclean, now their food handling is a concern. This place operated so much better back when it was Pho Mi Asia! The I Love Pho on Burnhamthorpe is perfectly fine. It's a shame. This location tarnishes the name! Don't make the same mistake. Avoid this place! There are so many other places in Mississauga for authentic Vietnamese food that won't make you sick.

The place is clean fast and reliable. All the things you need a pho place to be. The broth is above average, and the menu is deep. The viet coffee is prepared differently tho. Probably the best pho in Mississauga.

The other location remains closed for renovations, so it's a good thing this place is just as good! Get the Bo 7 Mon, it really is the best thing on the menu! Rua Vang, Cuu Long Mien Tay, none of them do bo 7 mon as well as I Love Pho. They also have lau hot pot, which is also awesome. This place is full of Vietnamese patrons for a reason!

I love pho! Large size special pho came with ample amount of meat( tendons, tripe, beef slices etc). Broth is solid but less sweet if I had to compare to pho88. Overall, great value for under 10 bucks. P.s: XL size pho is not an option. Large size will be sufficiently filling.

One of my favorite things to eat is the Vietnamese dish Bun, so if I see it on a menu, there's a really strong chance that's what I'm ordering. We walked into I Love Pho (or Pho 2, as the sign calls it) at around 2:00 and the place was surprisingly crowded, which we took to be a very good sign. Of course, I decided to go with an order of Bun: Bun Cha Gio, Bo Nuong ("Grilled Beef & Spring Roll with Vermicelli). It arrived a short time later and it's definitely one of the better variations of this dish I've had in a while. The generous helping of grilled beef is a cut above the norm, as it boasts a strong grilled flavor and delectable crispy edges. The remainder of the ingredients are quite good, although I will admit the dish on a whole wasn't quite as flavorful as others I've eaten. (I just feel like some pivotal spice or herb was either missing or omitted entirely.)

There's many Pho places in this area of the city, but noticing that they changed their name awhile ago I decided to finally try this place out over the weekend. We came in at about 6PM and yet there was already a massive line-up out the door - that's a good thing right? Anyways it took about 15 minutes for us to be seated so I'd imagine this place gets pretty busy during weekend lunch and dinner hours. Their menu is much more extensive than other Vietnamese places because they also serve Chinese and Thai food. Of course with the store name being what it was I had to try out the large Pho Dac Biet. The two other people I was with ended up getting a Beef Pho and Com Thap Cam. When the Pho came out the first thing that I noticed was how large it was. For the menu price I was expecting less content similar to other places in the area, but that was not the case. The broth had a pleasant smell before it even hit the table. Unfortunately the quality of the beef, beef balls, and chicken didn't seem up to par and I'd wager they were low quality cuts. Regardless the Pho was overall delicious and quite filling which prompted me to finish off most of the broth. I'm definitely going to come back and would recommend this place to anyone who loves Vietnamese food. Although one thing I have to knock them for was the service. Our waiter was pretty dispassionate about taking our order. He brought us the wrong order and the manager (I presume) came to our table and started yelling at him. When he apologized to us it was sounded more sarcastic than anything. It could've just been because they were so busy, but the service was certainly subpar.

My boyfriend and I normally go to Pho Brothers but they were closed. We are not mad about this decision My boyfriend is Viet so he was the judge for this place. The pho was flavourful yet light. They were very generous with the meat toppings. Only issue was that there pieces of tripe were so big so you only got two. But they were too big too eat in one bite. So I was hitting them into pieces to put in my bowl LOL. Lots of beef balls and delicious tendon. My boyfriend got the Avo shake and said it was one of the more rich and creamery shakes he had. We would definitely come back again and try some fresh rolls and other dishes.

I was so disappointed when their location on Burnhamthorpe closed down for renovations. I hadn't had Vietnamese food since then but when I recently learned that they had a second location I had to give it a try! Came in weekday during dinner time expecting a long line up like how it always was in their first location. It was actually less than half full and I thought to myself that maybe I made a bad decision thinking that they could live up my expectations. The restaurant was a little more spacious in terms of walkway room but the seating areas were pretty spacious with the booth tables. We ordered the vermicelli with pork and spring rolls as well as an appetizer of Vietnamese fresh spring rolls. Food came in no time and portion sizes were large and comparable to their home location! What I especially loved was that their meat was less cut up into smaller pieces which was more of a personal preference. Flavour-wise, the food was great! I would love to come back sometime soon to try out their pho. Although it's a little more farther drive for me, it serves my craving for Vietnamese food.

I came here after going to the gym one day and ordered their stir fry tofu with rice for $13.95. While that's a bit pricey, I have to admit they did provide a very substantial portion. In addition, it came with a small bowl of soup as well. The tofu was cooked perfectly and golden. Crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside in addition to a hefty servings of vegetables. The place was clean and overall the food was of good quality. I would come back when I'm in the area and need a quick meal.

After reading so many good reviews I'm a little taken back by my experience tonight [for my first visit]. Everything is decently priced. The food came relatively fast. I ordered #410, grilled chicken on a bed of vermicelli & a spring roll. It was very fresh and tasty. My friend ordered #300, which was supposed to essentially be just chicken, broth & egg noodles according to the menu. When it came it was very spicy, and had rice noodles instead. When he questioned why the dish was so different and requested to at least have the original egg noodles he asked for, they brought him a side bowl of vermicelli. He wasn't very pleased. The staff seem rather unhelpful and assume because you ask questions about the menu that you don't know what you're ordering. They weren't attentive whatsoever and none of the sauces/condiments at our table were stocked at all. I won't be returning. Better luck to you!

As a Vietnamese, I love trying different pho restaurants. Love coming to this pho place. So many options to choose from and the place is always packed. Many delicious dishes, however favorites include bun bo hue, and hu tieu my tho kho (comes with fried shrimp, very tasty) and mi xao! can come here multiple times a week whenever I'm craving authentic Vietnamese food

Great food, great flavors, and the portions are spot on. Just the right amount of everything. Pho hits home! but I love pho hits all the right spots. I can't say this enough but portion is huge when it comes to pho restaurants, for example: vermicelli needs the right amount of noodles, meat and veggies. same with the pho, each size bowl needs the right amount of noodles and meat. I love pho gets it done. my favorite is the sausage fresh roll, it is quite the appetizer, The place is pretty classy and quite clean, but it does get pretty busy here, and sometimes there is a wait for a table, so be prepared to wait.

This is not a new restaurant, just a name change. It was Pho Mi Asia for years and the quality has stayed the same. The servers are very efficient and the food is always good and delivered promptly. Prices are also good. The curried chicken is delicious. Very generous portion of bone-in chicken (usually about 4 pieces) in a bowl of coconut curry soup with potatoes. There is a choice of noodles in the soup or rice on the side. The beef stew with rice noodles is very good. It comes with lots of beef and some carrots. I order the medium and usually have to take half of it home as it's such a generous portion. The vermicelli dishes are served with thicker noodles than usual, but are always very tasty. We've been coming here for many years and have tried many of the soups and rice dishes. We've never been disappointed. Since the name change, they're now accepting credit cards instead of just cash or debit.

I'm not sure when this place opened up but apparently it's related to the original I love Pho down on Burnhamthrope/Mavis. This place is literally called I love Pho 2. We were around the area so we went to try this new place out. The layout seems similar to Pho Mi 99 in Heartland and there's a lot of seating space. Ofc trying a new pho place, I got the pho tai (my to go pho bowl). The broth is flavourful and it tasted good. Usually after I finish eating pho, depending on the place I eat at my throat would get itchy.. which to me indicates that they use a lot of msg stuff in it. I didn't get that feeling here so the soup is good here! There was a lot of rare beef pieces which had no fat and didn't curl up a lot (huge plus for me in pho). There were also a lot of garnishments on top and they used red onions. This is pretty rare for pho places, most use the regular onions. This place is one of the cheaper places for pho and the portions are pretty big. I would come back to try another dish and I gotta add the viet drip coffee!

Portions here are definitely huge, but the service is definitely lacking. They have all the typical Vietnamese dishes, which are all very good. My family, who is of Vietnamese origin, loves coming here first for the portions and second because of the quality. I find there is nothing that really pops for the taste though and can be a bit bland at times. The service here can definitely be improved. My family and I have been ignored several times when wanted to ask for more tea, but I guess the quantity of food makes it up. Definitely when we're in the area - this is our go-to Viet restaurant. However, if you're coming for quality and service, I would recommended elsewhere.

This place has great service, portion sizes, prices and quality of meat! I'm quite impressed! An important thing for me is the soup- nothing is worse than a overbearing salty and MSG ridden soup. This place did not have that problem! My friend introduced me to this place and I've been back for a second time already!

There is a REASON this place (and its other location - currently closed for now) have been the most popular places for Viet cuisine among the Vietnamese community in Mississauga over the past few years. Aside from homemade and from the motherland herself, this place is as authentic as it's going to get for a Viet restaurant. Major reason why I love this place is that it doesn't skimp out on garnishes for noodle soups, which practically every other Viet restaurant does. They give you the appropriate and a solid amount of garnishes for their noodle soup dishes (+10 pts authenticity). Dishes I recommend trying (beyond pho!): - Bun bo Hue (Hue-style spicy beef vermicelli soup) - Bun bo la lot (Vermicelli with beef wrapped in betel leaf; really just like their bun dishes in general) - Any of their grilled meat rice dishes (tastes as good as if not even better than in Vietnam, aunt from Vietnam agreed too) - Mi dac biet (House-special egg noodle soup) - Hu tieu My Tho (My Tho-style chewy glass noodle soup; can ask for broth to be on the side) - Bun đau cha muc (Vermicelli with fried tofu, squid patties, and shrimp paste; one of the rare places that makes this Northern Viet dish) Ironically, I like this place not for its pho (I think it's meh), but for their other dishes, which they make WAY better compared to other Viet restaurants in Mississauga. Only reason I'm not giving it full stars is the quality of the dishes is not consistent from week to week.

Bravo for doing Vit food well! We are regular here and this place is known among viet ppl to have good Vit food. Recommend: canh chua ca (fish soup w vermicelli to share) tofu and fish cakes vermicelli, ca kho to (braised fish just like moms at home) salted fish fried rice, bun mang vit (bamboo duck vermicelli),

Great location of i love pho! Went to the original one by mavis when they first opened and it was hard to go back cause of parking and how small the restaurant was and after 3 times we just chose to go else where. Glad this location has a hugh space and parking lot. Large menu of viet specialties you dont see at a lot of basic pho places. Bun xeo or flour crepe with shrimp and pork/ rice noodles with or with out pork, duxk with bamboo noodle soup! Ive tried their veggie pho...delish and packed full of tofu and other fresh veggies. Had the crepe with no meat and they packed it full of beansprouts and onions :) Moms tried almost everything else on the menu and she loves the flavor and choices she gets here. Service is pretty straight forward with a few sweet staff!

This place has the rudest asshole waitresses and waiters and kitchen staff. They talk shit about you in their own language (Vietnamese) as they serve you. I ordered their beef 7 flavor ($35.00 +tax) . It was decent but some of the food was under cook.. They failed to bring out all the dishes. Received 4 out of the 7 dishes from the beef 7 flavor special When I asked them about it. They laugh it off as its not their problem. An hour after I asked they bought me some burnt pile of shit on a plate and walked away. (Didn't eat it) They forgot the pho dac biet and the tufo and the spring rolls until we reminded them also Still missing two more dishes. From the special. Got fed and went to pay. Asked them how is it possible to forget people's order when they weren't busy. the waitress laughed and said we forgot and turned around and some vile shit in Vietnamese. She then turned around and said your food is coming ill pack it up. I gave them a chance and waited. While they said "let the chubby girl wait" in Vietnamese. I lost it and replied in Vietnamese. "You pieces of shit should be careful what you say around people. Just cause I don't look like you, doesn't mean I don't speak the language." Have some respect for your customers. If you fucked up say your sorry and keep your mouth shut till you get home. I will never come back to this place. Rather starved to death. If people knew what these scumbags say about the customers they would be out of business.

As a Vietnamese person, I feel like I'm quite judgemental. Not because I'm only use to my own family cooking, but because I've tried a s-load of vietnamese dishes cooked by different people from here to Vietnam. This particular place was okay. We ordered the Bo 7 mon (7 styles of beef) , spring rolls, and a rice dish with everything in it. The beef course came with a lot of food, It was well worth it -price alone! Food however, 1. rare beef slices came in a very small portion but was quite good when cooked in the spicy stock (it's quite spicy!). You roll it up with the rice paper and put whatever toppings you wish inside. The sauce it came with to dip was on the sweeter side than I'd like but still tasty! 2. Bo nuong la lot - the beef roll in leaf was soggy and oily, however had good flavours. 3. Beef congee was great, more on the runny side than thick. 4. Bo luc lac - shaken beef - was Chewy but great flavours 5. Grilled beef slices were dry and chewy 6. Bo tai chanh - the pale pieces of beef lol- had great flavour. Love that they use lime leaves and cilantro to bring out the flavours. It was a little too cooked for my liking. I usually have it rare like a beef tataki 7. Meatball had same flavour as the one rolled in la lot -leaves - without the leaves lol Spring rolls - typical spring rolls Rice dish - typical with grilled beef and the fixings Drinks : do not get bubble tea unless you like the powder stuff. The soda xi muoi had too much sugar in it. The Che 3 mau was half ice and had no liquids in it ! Will I come back for these specific dishes? Nah. If I'm super duper craving it, maybe I'll come and order it..then regret eating it after... then be glad again once the cheap bill comes. Lol

There are 2 I Love Pho restaurants in Mississauga, and this Dixie/Dundas location is not only bigger, but IMO, tastes better than its counterpart on Burmhamthorpe. I order the vermicelli with spring roll, grilled and shredded pork. It came in a mountainous bowl complete with chopped peanuts, raw shredded veggies and some sort of glass noodle. I poured a lot of fish sauce on mixed up all the components. There could've been more grilled pork, but for $8, I can't complain. The flavours were all there - smokiness from the grilled pork, crunchiness from the cucumbers and shredded lettuce, tons of peanuts. My parents ordered the special Pho #201 and a plate of rice that came with grilled pork, chicken and Vietnamese egg (also $8). The restaurant itself could be cleaner, but other than that, I have no other complaints. I will definitely be back for Pho!

We have been coming to this place for many years. Originally it was called pho mi asia. All the standard viet dishes can be found here. Since changing their name to I Love Pho they now take credit cards as well. (Previously cash/debit only) Pho broth is always good here and when I order mine with soft tendon they're always generous with the protein. Bánh xèo is always good here and it's never greasy. Food is generally inexpensive as is the case with most viet places. Note that this restaurant is right next to a pokemon go pokestop.

although they have raised their prices since it became "I love pho 2" and got a new sign... the portions are still VERY LARGE and the food tastes great too. At least 50% more food in general than the average pho place. the pics dont even do justice. its about 8 dollars a large pho.. 8.50 an entree .. they also have speciality dishes like sour soup combos, and platters you can wrap your own vietnamese handrolls. they also have thai food such as pad thai which cost 10 dollars. when im in the area this has become my go to viet restaurant.

The food here is out of this world. So authentically tasting Viet. So, many fresh veggies and herbs to go with the 7 beef meal. We got the family dinner combo #2 too and each dish was out of this world fragrant. The variety of dishes you can get that aren't pho and also taste great makes me want to come back regularly. We arrived at 5:50 pm on a Sunday and there was already a line up. They don't take resos but I'd wait the 30 min again for a table.

Great place to order Vietnamese takeout. Food is fresh, huge portions and meat is cooked on a grill so the meat has a wonderful smokey flavour. One of the regular girls who works there at the cash isn't the friendliest towards customers but other than that, an excellent place to eat.

. Super bad and terrible staff! Stop looking at people during they eating and please respect them. We are eat and pay you guys money, so stop to require us. . Teenager are also a customer, they still pay money when they eat. So stop require us keep the table clean and compare us with adults. We ate very clean (it mean we did not make mess, just like what she gave us) and do not matter what we did, serve is your job man! . If we help you to keep clean, did you pay us back? If not, shut up your smelling mouth!

This is my favorite Vietnamese food spot in Mississauga. Being an international student from Hanoi, Vietnam, I'd been eating authentic Vietnamese food every day in my life. The food was good. I tried the Pho but however, it's Southern Pho so I'm not sure how authentic it was, but the flavor was 85% there. The broken rice was great, good flavor and tastes just like in Vietnam. The bun bo hue, however, was not really legit and somewhat tastes like tom yum (??). The staffs were really friendly and helpful. Overall, I'd still recommend this place and will definitely come back.

Food was BLAH at best. Service was the most terrible I've ever experienced. When we sat down to order, the lady came to our table and were about to tell her our order, she then tells we need to write it down to write it down and she's just there to pick up the paper. When the food started coming out we asked for an extra fish sauce and the server was wanting to 'trade' it for another sauce he just put down on the table.. really? We told him to leave both and he rolled his eyes. When we told him to leave it, it was as if we asked him to hand over his wallet. Then he starts being more food to the table and we wanted to make sure it was what we ordered, he explained to us in a very demeaning manner like we were children. The bad attitude and energy peremated through the entire place and people behind the register were talking and laughing instead of doing their jobs. If you're really that upset that you had to go to work, please stay home! I guess you don't get manners when you go to low end viet restaurants. SUPER RUDE!!!

Good food. Large portions and good speedy service. They speak English and understand what you would like. Would visit again for sure.
