Pho Bo Ga - Ottawa

Did a hot yoga sessions right before. And thought what better way to revitilize all the sweat loss than sharing a bowl of pho and vermicelli. Chose the #1 rare beef on the pho options. Waiter gave me help on which to choose. I was a bit hesitant as the pink beef picture on the menu looked more beef tartar style than rare. But when it came out it was cooked perfectly. Rookie mistake as I haven't had pho since pre covid. But added too much bean paste hot sauce and almost lost my voice as it was very spicy. I added some veggies to the beef pho to try to get my greens for only a couple bucks more. The vermicelli dish was light and tasty. Shrimp bbq pork. Tasty and flavourful. The nice play on textures with soft noodles, crunchy nuts, and tangy proteins. I'll come again once we have a deep cold Ottawa winter and in need of a piping hot pho bowl to warm up to.

Always a great place for awesome Pho, friendly service. I recommend the Bûn vermicelli bowl always my go to. Open late to

Great restaurant they have another right across the street. Very pleasant service and amazing food! We had pho and pork chops and Kalbi and rice!

Went in the evening. Place was full. Had to wait a few mins. There were 8ppl waiting after us and they kept coming and abandoned after seeing the long queue. Service was fast, soups were ok. I prefer the thai soup with shrimps. Not wheelchair friendly at the entrance unless they lay a ramp for you. Shall go back though to try some other recipes.

A local restaurant I used to go to is now closed, so I walked down the road and found New Pho Bo Ga La. The service was quick and the staff very friendly. I had rice noodle with beef and was very happy with the meal. I will go back again when in Ottawa.
