  The best! I like their subs a lot. They have the best pork dumplings I've had in Calgary. The beef dumplings are up there too. Awesome soup (pho and wonton... Although I'm not usually the wonton type)
  
  The owners are really friendly. Service is quick for the type of restaurant they are. Quite a bit of seating for a small place, too.

  I have always been a fan of Vietnamese subs. When I found out that there was a restaurant in Montgomery that served exactly that, I was stoked.
  
  Atmosphere - I ordered takeout so I only had a quick look around. The place was very small but seemed very clean.
  
  Food - Strictly speaking from a Vietnamese sub standpoint, it was just okay. I ordered the house special and it had everything I expected in it, but there was nothing special at all about it. There are places in Chinatown/downtown that offer a much more diverse flavor profile. Other reviews had mentioned how great their noodle soups were, so I might go back and try that next time.
  
  Value - A bit more expensive than your typical Vietnamese food joint.
  
  Overall - If I am in the area and craving a Vietnamese sub, I would stop by. Otherwise, I prefer the subs served in Chinatown/downtown.

  This owner is an artisan. Each item is prepared with the freshest ingredients and the recipes have that little extra that makes each bite really flood the taste buds as you eat it.

  Clean, authentic, and a great mix of MSG FREE Asian Cuisine. Non-GMO tofu used in all soy dishes!
  
  Appetizers include Samosas, Dumplings and Spring & Salad rolls. There are also soups and subs available. There are plenty of rice & noodle dishes and vegetarian options too.
  
  My first time here I was greeted warmly. There are only 12 seats so it's a small space. A cooler is available with frozen food as well as take-out.
  
  I chose to have the #19 Pad Thai - Rice Noodles with chicken, prawns, vegetables (mainly onion), egg and tofu. This is stir-fried with a special house-made sauce. It was very good especially paired with a fresh squeezed lemonade and bubble tea.
  
  This is a great place to come if your in the area. I really got the impression that the owner cares and delivers all the dishes to each table with pride!

  I really hesitated giving them only three stars, but our last visit was just not good. The previous visits were okay. It seems like they are very good with a few dishes, but not with all. The Pad Thai is very tasty. The beef noodle soup is good, although the last time there was just way too much onion in there. Some rice&noodle dishes are rather "meh". #20 tasted like pepper and nothing else, very disappointing, and again lots of onion. #18 was okay, but nothing more.
  
  It's a small location, seating maybe 12 people. They offer frozen wonton soup kids to take home. A parking lot is outside.
