Pho Jade

Used to come here often and then for about a year I didn’t come anymore.
Today, after a long day at work I was driving in the area and I felt in need to have some comfort food and especially hot since today is very cold. So here I am again.
Jade phở is still run by the same owner and the service is still handle by the same server who’s demonstrated to handle the service in the same fast and efficient way.
I had the old classic dish: house special which consist in rice noodles with beef, beef tendons, cartilages, meatballs, beef tripes all served in a delicious homemade beef broth.
The whole bowl comes as usual with the boost of cilantro, mint leafs and sprouts.
The only downside I believe that the amount of side greens has been reduced. Not so sure why but as far as my memory can recall from my recent trip to Vietnam, the serving of herbs is usually very very generous because that’s what Vietnamese love to death when they are having phở.
Now, believe me when I say that I do understand that we are not in Vietnam here, but since before the portions of mint, cilantro and sprouts were more abundant than what I observed today, and knowing that the owner is Vietnamese, I was expecting the same quantity: no more no less.
Overall Phở Jade is still a very good place for the quality they serve but this time I want to adjudicate only 3 stars just because I found the portion of the greens reduced.
:)

Impressive food, great price, and nice décor.
I had a seafood dish, but my table of four ordered beef, chicken and a noodle dish. Everyone felt that their food was quickly prepared and tasty.
Taste-​wise, probably one or the best Phở places I have been to, with some of the nicest décor, at average Toronto pricea. Win win!
If I could name one downside it would be its location — which is sadly about two blocks west of where you would hope it would be. But still worth finding!

Besides that they’re right in my hood, this spot is my fave. They are truly lovely people and always greet me with a smile. I’ve taken many a friends there and all love the experience. I usually get the Rare Beef Phở but have ordered other items off the menu. The phở is the best stuff off the menu. It’s affordable, consistently delicious and satisfying — the perfect trifecta. If you know what Soursop is, try their smoothie, it’s amazing. Everytime I visit, I know what to expect and my expectations are always met. Word of Advice — avoid the Pad Thai and anything off the Vietnamese food path — Phở is the best way to go with this place.

I was very surprised when we got there, nice place, nice bathrooms, the waitress was serious but then after understand that this was the only person working, there was noone else to help but even more surprising that this girl. managed to serve everysingle customer fast, she didnt forget anything and she didnt stop one second since we got there going from one table to the other my respects for this girl.
*The food was ok, nothing special, I have tried better Phở the cold rolls were not tasty at all abd the springrolls were super greasy :(ohhhhh shame.
But we were so impress by this girl and her efficiency to serve 20 customers without a single mistake!

I love this place ! The food is always fresh, the portions are large and the prices are economical .The service is always good, the server always remembers me and my order. I would recommend this place to many

One of the more cleaner Vietnamese restaurants I have been to. Nice décor and good service. Food is up to par with other Vietnamese places other than one obvious flaw. The portions are miniscule. There were 2 meatballs in the bowl which would have been acceptable if they weren’t the size of peanut. Similar dilemma with the spring roll and grilled beef.

Consistently delicious phở. Inexpensive and good portion for the price. I always order the P14 (flank brisket, tripe, and beef ball) and sugar cane shrimps (two pieces).
The sugar cane shrimps are not on the menu, I would recommend trying this dish. It’s seasoned minced shrimp paste wrapped around a long (about 6″) rectangular peeled sugar cane, then deep fried to a beautiful golden colour. The salty and sweet combination is quite a treat in your mouth. Don’t forget to spit out the sugar cane once you done chewing out all the sugary goodness. Don’t order this if you’re on a hot date and wanna look proper (but who would take a hot date to a phở place?!).
The broth of the phở is not too greasy, and it’s tasty enough without adding any sauce.
The staff is always friendly there, although there would be a long wait if you’re a big group of people (over 10). There were several times I waited an hour for my food. The place is clean and big, but they only have one server, I feel bad for her when the place is packed. If you are a big group, you can call ahead and order your food, so you don’t have to wait too long when you’re at the restaurant.

Definitely my favourite phở place in my neighbourhood. I have had better phở but that doesn’t mean this place doesn’t get a 5. Awesome, polite, quick staff. Delicious, big, well-​priced bowls of phở.

The bowl of phở arrived to the table as if it was half eaten, half a fish ball, half a squid, 1 shrimp. Another large size phở came with small piece of shredded beef, half the bowl was empty with the equivalent noodle portion of a small. Did they run out of food?
Besides that, the broth only tasted of sodium, not that deep and complex broth found in authentic phở. There is definitely much better places in the neighborhood. Cannot recommend.

This place is full of great service and a nice atmosphere that can’t be beat. Compared to most Vietnamese places in Toronto, the servers and owners are very welcoming, nice and make you feel at home. I come here once in a while with my co-​workers and we are always treated well and given some house specials on occasion too!
The food is authentic and the presentation is much nicer than most Vietnamese places around the city. The restaurant itself is kept very clean and it’s very well lit by the large open glass windows out front.
Overall I really enjoy this place, along with the super friendly staff. Even when they are swamped, they still have time to chat and make sure everyone is doing well with their food. A great Vietnamese destination in Toronto!

This place looks very clean and can tell that can attractive be non asians (since many phở places r quite dirty even with amazin food). Phở was kinda small for the price and they dont have xl size. Meat and soup was legit without any fat oil floatin around.
Decent place to go for a meal wit girls but not with ur sasauge party hungry monsters.

I usually stick to the house special phở and whatever fresh rolls I’m feeling that day and it’s consistently great, I usually drop by at least 3 times a month, even more so during rainy days (phở is best when its raining for some reason) the prices are pretty reasonable as well, you can eat like a royalty for under $ 20.(I don’t know what that one guy is talking about saying it’s overpriced, get your broke ass outta here son) 4 stars since the ambience stills throws me off a bit from time to time, and they aren’t open so late. I’d pick this spot anyday over golden turtle not just cause the location is convenient for me but the service is also impeccable.

Jade is a good neighbourhood phở spot when you feel like a quick and inexpensive meal.
The phở has a really nice broth, just as good as Golden Turtle in my opinion.
Vermicelli is also good, but could definitely stand to have more meat in it.
Their iced coffee is delicious, but I’m not sure why it comes in a plastic cup and not a drinking glass?

Overpriced compared to other Phở Restaurants. They do not put very much meat in the soup. I have eaten here about 6 times, once the broth of the phở was very weak tasting and the beef was very tough. I think they are doing a better job now but they give you about half the average amount of meat which makes it not worth the high price.

Nicely done up but not overly tasty. The beef and egg with broken rice was probably a bit better than the rare beef and tendon phở and the grilled chicken and pork vermicelli. The phở was ok but had a very high noodle to good stuff ratio and the broth wasn’t particularly rich or tasty. The vermicelli was disappointing with fairly tasteless meat and less of the pickled carrots/​lettuce/​cucumber and other things than I’m used to elsewhere.
Portions were decent, service friendly and reasonably quick.
All in all I much prefer our usual places up on St. Clair or down on Ossington. We don’t plan to return here.

Great food! Nice service. We had mango tempura avocado rolls, phở and pad thai and it was all delicious.

So far the best, cheap phở I’ve been able to find in Toronto. Nice décor inside, it’s never too busy, and the staff is really nice. Have been here a few times and have always had a good experience.

Woah. I slept on this place for the longest time.
I’ve been living around the corner from Phở Jade for over two years and I never paid a visit until today. When walking by I could never gauge what was going on in there, but happened to stumble in and check out the menu. Lots of promising choices.
Place looks pretty good. I’d dine in for sure. Woman serving me was great as well.
I ordered some kind of udon noodle dish with chicken. It was pretty good. Also got some shrimp tempura roll with avocado, which was really delicious — filling with a touch of sweetness. Enjoyed my selections very much.
Really happy I decided to finally check this place out. Looking forward to exploring their menu some more!
Oh, and they have a water fountain and big screen TV.
Boom.

Being a vegetarian, I was a phở virgin as most places use a beef broth base.
Phở Jade kindly offers a vegetarian broth version for us herbivores that is truly… scrumptious! The spring rolls are also amazing. The prices are extremely reasonable and the portions are very generous. 2 thumbs up. I’m trying to work up the courage to try the durian fruit milkshake next time

As phor as vegetarian phở goes (see what I did there?) in the Brockton/​Bloordale area, this is the best I have had yet! The vegetables were fresh and cooked to perfection, the noodles actually had flavor and were not «waxy» like I usually find phở rice noodles to be, the tofu was quality, and the broth was so flavorful. Not at all boring and plain, like I usually find vegetarian phở to be.
My partner had beef phở, and also said that it was the best he has had in the neighborhood. This is exciting!
The service was fast and friendly, the restaurant was clean and open, the food was ready what felt like only 5 minutes after ordering, and the price was right. My vegetarian phở was $ 6.95 and my partner’s beef phở was $ 7.50. Next time I’ll try their pad thai.
