New Pho Bo Ga La

Visited several times late at night with friends. Service is steady, food is consistently good, and the space feels welcoming even at off-hours. A reliable option when you want something simple, warm, and satisfying.

This is my personal favourite pho spot. They have amazing appetizers and main dishes. I love 007 I believe which is pho with rare beef and beef tendon, it’s my absolute favourite. All the food comes out hot and really fast. There’s also plenty of seating and is beautiful during the summer under the flowers on the patio. It’s a 10/10 for me!

Excellent food and service. Cozy atmosphere. Must try Viet restaurant in China Town

Fairly standard pho. Good portion of rice for lemongrass chicken. Can’t say if this is the best Vietnamese restaurant in Ottawa since I didn’t have a chance to compare.

An iconic spot in Chinatown of Ottawa, this restaurant has consistently delivered delicious Pho and other Vietnamese food items over the years.

Vietnamese restaurants in Ottawa often have a self-order system whereby the customer is handed a piece of paper and a pen to order their food items. The menu is numbered and the process is straightforward.

Our experience this past week at New Pho Bo Ga La was a positive one with our delicious orders of Vermicelli noodles on grilled shrimp and veggies. The fish sauce (maybe?) that goes with the dish is excellent and reduces the dryness of the noodles while providing a flavorful taste. The shrimps were grilled well with ample flavour. Overall, we had a good time and will return soon!

Was looking forward to going here for quite a while. It did not disappoint.
Have the seafood spicy special (S11). it was so flavorful lots of spice and lemongrass flavor. My dining partner had the regular pho which was less flavorable by comparison.
The large bowl is enormous. So come hungry orbev prepared to take leftovers home.
