I normally don 't write reviews like this but I had a very disappointing experience as the staff did not take my food allergies seriously.I ordered a vermicelli and specifically wrote down no peanuts on the order paper and told the server that I have a nut allergy so please do not include peanuts on my dish. The server acknowledged my request and took my order in.However when the food came out there were peanuts all over my dish. When I told the second server (who brought out the dish) the first response was, did you tell them when you ordered? No apology or acknowledgment of the mistake. They took the dish back and apparently the first server misunderstood and thought I said no beansprouts....
This is my second visit at Pho Xe Lua at the Finch Leslie location. We ordered 2 phos (small chicken and X-large rare beef and beef balls) and a shrimp spring rolls. The spring rolls were delicious and made fresh to order. My wife's chicken Pho was good but my X-large pho was good until I found a hair inside the bowl. The long hair was caught early on as I was trying to mix the noodle with bean sprouts from the bottom of the bowl to the top, the hair was tied up with the beef. I immediately stopped eating and called the server for her attention, she took the entire bowl back and sent it back to the kitchen. A new bowl was brought back to the table and I immediately inspected it to make sure...
Have been going to this restaurant for years and their food has never disappointed. You can never go wrong with their lemongrass pork and beef rice which is a must order each time I go. My parent always get the pho which they say is the best they have ever had. A side dish we always order is their garlic bread but recently, we tried their spring rolls and satay which were also quite tasty.Their service is decent with friendly workers and the food is served quite quickly. Eating at this restaurant always got me excited like a kid and I am happy whenever we dine here.
Pho Xe Lua is a franchised Vietnamese Cuisine and I've always enjoyed their food, as I love their pho and vermicelli dishes ?However, when I wanted to try something new, I ordered the BBQ pork chop and beef #418), I was so disappointed! Other Vietnamese restaurants usually include an egg, and various veggies along with juicier/bigger pieces of BBQ meats. I expected a lot more than just a few sticks of preserved radish for $15! The beef didn't taste fresh and very dry. I do not recommend this dish, not at all worth the money! ?

Ordered from UberEats where it had a 4.6 rating but believe me, it is FAR from it. Broth is just straight MSG, noodles are not what 's supposed to be used for pho, and the food was cold upon arrival.Avocado shake was 90% ice with nearly no avocado taste.This franchise is by far the worst out of all the pho restaurants out there. Ate here as a kid and it was bad sad to see nothing has changed.High do not recommend anyone to eat here. There are more than enough options in the area.
Service is awful. The restaurant owner is rude and arrogant.They prepared wrong meals, but didn't apologize, and they even acted as if it was the customer who made the mistake, not themselves.
Okay food, the noodles were stuck together (had XL Pho). The mango salad was okay, would not recommend the fried wonton, pho was kinda salty, and the rice dishes were okay.
Old lady who served us had very bad attitude and ruined our dinner completely. The meals were the worst pho/vermicelli I ever tried in GTA. Not recommend for anyone.
