To be honest, they all taste the same to me. >_> Cept the one across Honolulu on Kingsway taste like CRAP! worst pho i had in my life | If you want bad, you gotta go to Cambie and Broadway. There's a 24hr one there. Certain members on this board love it...I think the soup tastes off. They tell me it's an acquired taste.

I always thought that place was called Pho Thai Hoa? Maybe I'm wrong.

I suggest you guys try it out. The soup base is more basily tasting, and minimal to no msg. | +1, Nooch is good shit. They go light on the meat, though. But great atmosphere, decent prices and tasty food. The soup base is great, not too salty/MSG-y.

went to "Vietnamese Restaurant" this morning
customer service is awesome, portion is average, level of MSG was quite low, large variety especially with appetizers, price is ~6.50 for a large pho
Overall its a good place, would recommend you guys to pay one visit.  | |

Tried Pho Vinh today. The food was pretty good, but I found the soup to be a little too "sweet."
Are there any other pho joints in the Vancouver area that has clear soup with lots of onions? I miss Pho Thang Long.  | |

Anyone been to Thai Son in Richmond? The price is decent.. But the MSG level is low as it gets, plus the place is clean because it used to be a Japanese restaurant lol
