Love eating here, definitely my top 3 for pho or vermicelli restaurants in Calgary! When you come here, you got to try one of their noodles that contains their house special satay sauce! Unlike most other Vietnamese restaurants that went cheap out on the quantity of the food, this location not only provides high quality but also have a good amount of the items that would make you go home satisfied! Loved their spring rolls as well. Drinks are great to have if you are thirsty! Very quiet location so definitely suited for family outing, highly recommended!

Menu is full of options, me and my friend almost got lost server is helpful, gave us advice, and customized the food. Highly recommended the pork sub! Bread was crispy and the portion was big. Was about to order the chicken one, but the server said the pork is the best, which is so true!

I live in British Columbia and come 'Out of my way' to this specific place for Pho!! Hands down the best Soup you'll ever have!! Even the service is the best! Perfect level of spiciness for someone that loves spice! So flavorful! I miss coming here all the time! No cap!

One of the best pho places in the city, if not THE best! I always come here with my family, who all love the atmosphere and environment here. The owner is very nice as he knows us by name since we visit frequently. Also, if it’s your birthday when you visit, or if you have little children with you, the owner give you a free cookie, or whatever little dessert. Number 30 is my favourite order, having all the types of meat i like in my pho. I took my girlfriend here last week and she said the vermicelli was exceptionally delicious. All in all, Pho Sate is a very tasty pho spot in Calgary, with a nice vibe and extremely friendly service!!!!! Would recommend coming back every single day.

The food was very delicious. We ordered the Grilled Sate Beef and the rolls was very tasty. The peanut sauce texture was not too liquid and not too paste texture. A nice blend in between. The taste was good. Next up we have Durian Smoothies. Not a lot of vietnamese restaurant serves Durian flavour for a reason. But I love Durian and this was spot on and filled my desire. Then comes the main course of the Sate Beef with Peanuts and the House Special. Both were brothy and tasteful. The Sate Beef was not too spicy (in my opinion) and was flavourful. The house special was good and had plenty of meat. I will come back again to this restaurant as it is close by. The owner was friendly and the environment was pretty soothing. The restaurant is clean and tidy.

Stumbled upon this place while looking for something hot during Calgary’s cold snap. Ordered the Sate Beef Noodle soup — the regular portion was enormous, can only imagine what the X-Large would be! It was delicious and flavourful right to the last bite. Also tried the Sate Chicken Noodle Soup, which I liked a bit more as it was spicier and the chicken had great flavour compared to the beef. Owner was very courteous and nice — also told us the broth is cooked for several hours and no dish uses MSG! That’s a win.
