Madame Saigon (Midtown)

Dropped by this midtown pho restaurant as I was in the area. The restaurant is surprisingly more spacious than the frontage from the street would suggest as it widens towards the back of the restaurant. This is a touch more upscale than your typical Vietnamese pho restaurant (e.g. they have lime in their water, they play slow jazz background music, the chopsticks are gold plated). At the table there are chopsticks, soup spoons, sriracha, hoisin, chili oil (tasty and not overly spicy), metal sauce dishes, and higher quality napkins. I ordered a small rare beef and tendon pho. Soup was one of the better ones I've tasted. The beef was thinly sliced, tender, but mostly well done already by the time it arrived. One small disappointment is that I only got two pieces of tendon, one big piece and one small piece. Overall, portion size is on par with others. 5% discount of you pay by cash. Definitely worth checking out if you're in midtown and craving a warm bowl of pho!

Wow! I’m a pho lover and this is definitely one of the best soups I ever had in Toronto. Broth is great, portion is great( size large come with a lot of protein!!!), service is great,too! Very impressive overall. Too bad this is not in my neighborhood.

Spring rolls were great. Pho was really good. Rare beef pieces were high quality cuts. Pro tip - they have XL as well!

Very nice space! Food was delicious, but there could've been more veggies & less carbs(though that differs from person to person). Overall a good experience!

Pretty good Vietnamese food option in midtown. Unsurprising restaurant with great food. Had the vermicelli with bbq beef, shrimp, and spring rolls. Also ordered the durian smoothie. Overall the smoothie was not bad, could’ve been stronger durian flavour. The vermicelli was good as it looked

Easy 5 stars! One of the best, if not the best, Viet restaurants I’ve ever been. Shared the platter for 2-4 with a friend, easily could have fed one more person. The flavours were great, the quality of the meats was good, and portion size was generous, and it was very reasonably priced. The staff were also kind and helpful.

I came here with no expectations but wow was the meat ever tasty. I got the chicken and pork chop rice dish and it was so fresh and the meat had been glazed with a sweet sauce which was so delicious. I also had the coconut water which had chunks of coconut meat, yum! Will definitely be coming back.

Our go-to Vietnamese restaurant in town. The pho is generally excellent. I recently tried the Thai fried rice with soft-shell crab, and it didn't disappoint me! Not only was the soft-shell crab good, but there was also chicken in the dish(extra protein). Most of their menu items are above average. Their Vietnamese coffee is good, and the baguette is warm and soft. The staff are always friendly and very accommodating.
