I went to the original location of Pho Ngoc Yen a few years ago and called it a hidden gem. It’s in an industrial area of Mississauga, and you really have to be looking for it to find it. You’re not going to stumble onto it.
Their second location, on a busy stretch of the Queensway in Etobicoke, is very much the opposite. But it’s still a gem.
I ordered the pho last time, which was extremely delicious, so I figured another noodle soup was a safe bet. I went with the bun bo hue: “beef, pork with vermicelli in spicy lemongrass soup.”
It’s a great noodle soup. Though it’s not particularly spicy, the broth is zippy and flavour-packed, with a meaty and slightly seafoody flavour that’s really satisfying.
It’s hard to tell from the photos, but it’s absolutely crammed with meat. There’s a whole bunch of tender sliced beef, a couple of fairly substantial pieces of tasty pork sausage, and some blood cakes.
The dish cost about 20 bucks, which certainly isn’t cheap, but considering the quantity and quality of stuff in this bowl, it’s hard to say it’s not worth it.

There’s a dry noodle dish they serve there. Forget the name, but I get the egg noodle with seafood and pork. Dry version comes with soup on the side. $21, but a large amount. My kids love the fish sauce wings. Also, if you ask they have a vinegary chili sauce that they can bring instead of the sriracha type stuff. it’s way better.
Interesting! I’ll definitely have to ask for that chili sauce next time I’m there.
