Hem Social is a gem in Toronto that truly stands out. The moment you walk in, the cleanliness and inviting atmosphere immediately catch your attention. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready with a smile and genuine enthusiasm. What really impressed me was their ability to provide thoughtful, personalized recommendations that elevated our dining experience. The food is nothing short of amazing—every dish we tried was packed with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly crafted with care. The attention to detail in both taste and plating is commendable. If you’re looking for a spot with exceptional service, delicious food, and a cozy yet vibrant atmosphere, Hem Social is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Had such a delicious meal here! Tried the beef banh mi and the special offer pho. So fresh and good! Service was wonderful too. I’ll definitely be back!

I can’t stop thinking about the flavors at this place—they’ve truly left a mark! The dishes are vibrant, fresh, and packed with that crave-worthy flavor that sticks with you long after you leave. The prices? Fantastic, making it a go-to for dine-in or takeout. And I’ve got to shout out the cabbage chicken slaw with fish chips—it’s hands down the best thing I’ve eaten all year! Seriously, do yourself a favor and get it. This spot nails it on all fronts, from bold flavors to great prices. I’ll be back (probably way too often)!

My go-to Vietnamese restaurant in Toronto. Super cute place, with delicious food. The owners are kind, and always happy you've stopped by. Today I had the lemongrass chicken vermicelli and it was absolutely yummy, get the housemade hot sauce to make it next level 😋

I was very pleasantly surprised . The food is truly second to none and the owners and the staff are so welcoming and nice. The restaurant has a very homey feeling and the menu is exactly what I’ve been looking for. The vietnamese coffee was one of the best I’ve had. And the vermicelli soup in tomato broth was so delicious and balanced. I can’t wait to visit again and I wish the kind owners success with this venture. Thank you , it was a real pleasure!

best restaurant in the west end! had the steamed wontons and they were some of the best i’ve ever had. for only $9 you get a decent portion that’s incredibly flavourful and not overwhelmingly spicy. love this place, the staff are lovely, the vibes are great. everything is very reasonably priced as well.

We loved everything about the restaurant! The food was delicious. The wings are a must! A pleasant change from the regular menus at the countless other Vietnamese restaurants across the city. The server was phenomenal. He was welcoming and so excited about the food — it was contagious! The atmosphere was great. We are looking forward to going back soon to try more dishes.

Incredible authentic Vietnamese food and drinks. You can tell the head chef nailed down the taste of all the dishes and drinks. The pho is so good that you don't need to add anything to the broth. Although the sizing is much smaller compared to other restaurants in the city, you are paying for high quality tasting pho that will bring you back to home cooking & nostalgia. The traditional iced coffee w condensed milk is one of best I've ever had (perfect size & very strong tasting). I am in love with the menu & decor of the restaurant. I only deducted 1 star from my review because I feel that all pho should be served with a side of Vietnamese basil.
