Pho Golden Star Premium

Crab Sticky Rice: It is tasty and fun to eat and look at, although we would prefer more crab meat. It is also not piping hot; only lukewarm. Hai Phong–style Fish Noodles: The noodles are bouncy, chewy, yet tender. The broth is deeply rich and savory. Service: The service is fast; the food arrives within a reasonable time after ordering. The person who served us was very friendly and all smiles. The others were not as warm, but they still provided good service.

The food is generally good, though it was not particularly outstanding, especially given the growing number of Vietnamese restaurants emerging across the GTA. The pricing is also on the premium side, which may present a challenge when competing with other establishments that offer more flavourful dishes at similar or lower price points. While the restaurant has received many positive reviews, it is worth noting that free desserts are offered in exchange for five-star ratings, which may affect the reliability of some of the feedback. I hope this perspective is helpful.

The food here was amazing! The pho broth was super clear and flavourful, the meats were tender, and the herbs were really fresh. The staff were very attentive the whole time and kept checking in on us, refilling things without us even asking. Overall a really solid experience definitely coming back!

We came here with friends for a casual dinner, what a lovely gem nestled right in Scarborough, beautiful ambience, fantastic service and finger 😋 licking food. The quantity was amazing so be prepared to take out boxes. Definitely a try if you want to try out Vietnamese cuisine.

Pleasantly surprised by this new restaurant. While they are a pho place, only a single page of their big menu is pho. Most of the items are dishes I have never seen at any pho restaurant before. I'll have to come back and try them. This was my first time and needed to try their short rib pho. The soup and noodles were cooked perfectly. It came in two bowls like other places, but the noodle bowl only had noodles and onions. No other meat, unlike other places. The short rib was excellent. The meat fell off the bone with a single hand pull, unlike other places that required gnawing. But once off the bone, you had one big slab of meat which was tricky to eat because you couldn't separate it so it became a routine to take a bit of meat, then a bite of noodles. I would recommend asking for a knife and fork or bringing your own shears if you order this. My wife had P9 which was a seafood noodle bowl of some kind. It had a rich and strong crab flavour.

Visited this place by recommendation of family. We ordered: - Ga Rang Muoi - Spring roll - Short ribs - Pho Ga (Grilled Chicken) We loved all the food.The broth has a great depth of flavor. The fried chicken appetizer was crispy, sweet and savory. This is a must visit place when you're craving great Vietnamese food.

Saw the 4.9 reviews rating, raised our expectations of this Vietnamese Pho. One of the best recommended from review was the lamb on hot stone. When ordering, this was not available. Quite disappointing. So we just go back to basic and order beef noodles. The noodle was nothing special, just mediocre. Quite thirsty few hours later and that summed up our experience.

The food was phenomenal. I really like the Bun dau mam tom here. Generous portion and nice presentation. Really appreciated the attention to details as the owner I believe used to be a fine dinning chef. Service was also excellent. Will definitely come back to try other dishes!

Excellent Vietnamese restaurant that differentiates itself from the many other Vietnamese options in the area. This restaurant specializes in northern Vietnamese dishes and has a large menu of unique dishes that are not found at other restaurants. Their dishes are also more communal to be shared. The portion sizes are very big, fresh ingredients, great flavour and friendly service. Highly recommend to try something new.

I was really excited to try this place. But was taken back and a little disappointed in both service and food. Food was average. But the pictures of the food did not match what you get. The food had a lot more filler than what they advertised. The restaurant was nice. Very spacious. But service was not top notch even tho when we came no one was there. We ended up helping ourselves to their cart of supplies. Would I come back? Probably never.

The service here was really good and our server was really respectful. This place also has big portions of food and the prices are quite reasonable. I would come back again.
