Heard about this eclectic family run restaurant and wanted to give it a try. Wide range of options ranging from burger & sandwiches to pho and wor wonton to schnitzel & roast beef.Arrived at 11 am so there was plenty of parking. However the parking lot was full by the time we left.We tried the pork schnitzel with mash potatoes and veggies as well as a club sandwich with fries. Very healthy portions, freshly made but a bit on the bland side. Price was very reasonable. Wasn't as good as it was hyped up to be. We will maybe try the wonton soup next time.
Simply perfect. Thank you so much. It was my first time but won’t be my last!!
Food is amazing and plentiful. Owners very helpful, friendly and we’ll definitely be back.
Hands down one of the best Satay Noodle Soup and Pho in Calgary! The portions are big, the flavors are spot on, and their Vietnamese coffee hits the spot too. The staff were so welcoming and always smiling, which made the whole experience even better. This place is a true hidden gem—can’t wait to come back! Would love to see halal options on the menu if possible.
This place has it all. Highly recommended the wor wonton soup. The viet subs are some of the best in the city. And if Asian isn’t your flavour, their western lunch buffet items are fantastic as well (schnitzel, cabbage rolls, roast beef etc). To top it off, the owners are very lovely people.

Love this place! I purposely sought it out and it never disappoints. I like being able to get satay pho at 8am.Schnitzel is good too!!!I've been here a few times now. Fully recommend it and I'll be back,!
great, fresh homemade food always !! excellent owners and staff, and service -thanks Paul!
Update - The new owners are doing an amazing job bringing Vietnamese food to Foothills Industrial!This is a family operated cafeteria that has great lunch specials. I had a kielbasa sausage, caramelized onions, mashed potatoes, steamed peas & carrots and mac & cheese for $10.5. This is a great addition to Calgary's SE industrial park. My coworker loves the wonton soup.
food is always delicious. Vietnamese subs are a go-to lunch. And customer service is top notch. Everyone working here is always so friendly and helpful!
Such a hidden gem. Authentic pho, perfectly done schnitzels. This restaurant has European dishes and Vietnamese pho. Where else can you get this ? 100 percent recommended.
Great place in the SE in an industrial zone. It was a bit hard to find but serves the locals. I met a friend for brunch and we shared a pork schnitzel and the satay beef pho soup. Schnitzel was hot, crisp and tender. Came with gravy and we chose mash and mixed veggies as sides. The pho broth was very tasty but not as nutty as I like. Minor amount of heat and full of noodles and meat. We loved both items and they kept topping up our water. This place is clean and friendly and also sells fresh flowers and cards in case you need some in a pinch. Ample free parking. Give them a try and support a small business!
Wonderful Vietnamese restaurant! Very convenient they open at 7:30am and I was able to go before work.
Most people like myself drive by places like these without giving it a second thought as it is hidden in the foothills industrial area just off Barlow. A colleague of mine suggested I try it as it is just a minute walk from our office. The owners/staff were very welcoming and friendly. They checked to see if everything was good and refilled my water. I ordered the Sate Pho not expecting it to be as good as it was. This place literally has something for everyone - especially if you are thinking of having a team gathering or lunch meeting here. This is my colleagues quick lunch stop and will be mine as well!
Great restaurant in the foothills industrial area! Quality food at a reasonable price.
It's a restaurant in an industrial area so atmosphere is sort if diner cafétéria type. Staff were super friendly. The schnitzel was nicely breaded and crispy without being too dry. Basic good food at very reasonable prices. My schnitzel was $13.50. Came with choice of potatoes and veggies.
Great little place, my favorite Peanut Satay Pho in town! Very friendly people! I would highly recommend checking them out.
Great place to grab breakfast while in town. Great prices, quick, nice service.
I absolutely love coming here for breakfast and lunch! The meals are delicious and extremely affordable. The staff is always friendly, providing great service. I am lucky to be staying so close to such a wonderful establishment.
Great food, great prices, great portions in an unassuming restaurant friendly staff too
Very good beef pho. Friendly service. Bubble tea was top notch as well!
Amazing food, good price, great portion sizes and very friendly staff. I recommend this place to everyone
Delicious Food, Friendly Staff, great price. Love this place so much. Highly recommend.10000/5 stars 🤩
The ladies working were really nice, I got a Vietnamese sub and shrimp salad rolls. The salad rolls were big, flavourful and well assembled. The sub was exceptional; plenty of meat, well balanced vegetables,nicely spicy, and the bun was bang on with lovely crust. I will be back!
This is one of my top places to go back to now. The restaurant is welcoming, and everyone is friendly. You'll be greeted with a smile and amazing food. The food was perfect and comforting.
Amazing customer service. I tried Vietnamese sub and pho. Very good flavours in the satay chicken sub. Pho noodle soup comes in good portions, lots of beef. Soup was delicious! Highly recommended!!
WoW. I had a fantástic roast beef with the most delicious scalloped potatoes. I will not tell my mom but these potatoes are better!The viatnamese coffee is a délicacy and the service is impeccable.It is worth the detour!
The Banh mi sub (beef) is so delicious! Perfect amount of crunchy, savory, sweet, spicey and fresh. The owners and staff are also very welcoming and friendly.
Awesome customer service - frequently courteous hospitality - delicious food. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here
Won ton soup is to die for! The pho is really good as well. Everything comes out quickly and it fresh and yummy, plus the staff are amazing. This place is very close to work so I’ll be back again ☺️
Stopped by picked up tuna sandwich. Get lots of tuna. Good value for the money $8.00. Recommend . All food is good. Like is open Saturday
Absolutely 10/10 experience ! My brother took me here for lunch all the time. They have a lot of options and lunch specials. I remember the first time I was kinda scared because of the location. I don’t usually go to industrial area for a restaurant but the staffs were so kind, friendly ( specially Paul ) plus the place was so clean. Foods are tasty and delicious. It is definitely a hidden gem. Highly recommended !!!
Staff was very kind and happy/friendly. Addressed me by my name, prepared a takeout order very quickly. Great prices and delicious broth. Will definitely go back
Came in for the first time for lunch and it was hopping busy, which is a great sign. The soup is absolutely amazing and such a friendly atmosphere. It was really such a pleasure to come in. Thank you
A restaurant gem hidden in the Foothills Industrial Park. It's rare to find a spot in this neighborhood that houses the holy trinity: good food, good price and good service. Blue Danube is the triple threat, hosting a delicious menu of Vietnamese fare and Ukrainian fare. I ordered the Satay Pho with rare beef, but I saw a person at the table next to me order the daily special of cabbage rolls, mashed potato and a pork schnitzel- it looked amazing and the portion was generous. The Pho is excellent and made me regret not finding this restaurant earlier. The service counter was clean, organized and I was in & out on my lunch break in 30 min. Money well spent.
A hidden gem nestled in the industrial parks, this family owned restaurant hosts an interesting combination of European and vietnamese cuisines. I have had both the schnitzel and pho and loved it. A big thanks to Paul and Hannah for giving me a very welcoming and friendly experience!
They menu has changed compared to last year. I miss the old eastern European and Asian mixed menu. The new menu is mostly Vietnamese.I find the price to be on the high-side for a small business, but the food and service is great though. I would come back but not for a while.
Visit this place weekly. The wonton soup is amazing. So rich in flavor and the noodles are perfect. My friend has a lunch special is good too ( huge portion ). On the top of that is an excellent customer service from Hanna and Paul. Highly recommended and we will surely comeback soon.
Great place that is tucked away in the industrial park. I went on a Saturday and had the rare beef noodle soup (also known as Pho Tai) and the spring rolls. Both were fantastic! Great place to go on Saturday for lunch if your looking for great lunch and a quiet place to eat.
I can't decide which is better, the food or the service. Paul and Hanah do a great job at providing terrific food, from two completely different menus. Always with a smile, and a genuine concern that you have a pleasant dining experience. Whether you dine in, or grab it to go, like so many of us that sometimes don't have the time to sit and relax. Cannot recommend it enough!
Came here after my partner had an interview nearby, I was so pleasantly surprised at how welcoming Paul and Hannah were. They were patient while we debated on what to order and helped us finalize our choices.They also had one of the best attitudes I have encountered at a restaurant in general of late. Both Paul and Hannah greeted me with a smile and were quite friendly. This is in stark contrast to a lot of the eateries that open up in an industrial section, where people don't seem as genuinely caring about customers or others.The food is amazing, the staff are kind, this feels like a place you could come consistently and wind up feeling like family.Definitely coming back
5 Star Service, Food and Selection. Delicious breakfast or lunch - their Vietnamese food is so good - to die for! And they deliver!!!Great family owned business - I’ll be back again and again. Don’t find these too often anymore - what a treat!
My husband raved about a place tucked away in the industrial area. Finally got a chance to come into town to try it. It did not disappoint! Super homey and enriching food! Great portion size and for a good price.
What a great spot for lunch! The cabbage rolls were absolutely out of this world! The schnitzel was a proper schnitzel too, as good as any I’ve had in Eastern Europe. I love how everything is fresh here. The veggies are cut in house and lightly steamed which is so much better than the soggy, frozen veg that is offered at other places. Everything here tastes so homemade and it’s the best priced lunch in town and the portions are very generous!! It’s also ready in a flash so if you or your crew need a quick lunch, this is the place to be. I just stumbled in on it today and I’ll definitely be going back regularly. When I get back to the shop, I’m telling the whole crew about this little gem! 10 outta 10!
