We were in the neighbourhood and had a late lunch at PhoXpress. The two of us ordered a steak brisket noodles (#12) and a southern Vietnamese noodles (#20). Meat was tender and noodles were soft and tasty. Very nice to have some hot soup options in the area. Server was very prompt and friendly as well. Will definitely come again!

*Update* since the below review was submitted, staff now ask how the first few bites are and also refill water during our meal. Ratings now updated. It is nice to see that are listening to their customers. Good job Pho Express! Since changing management Pho Express Riverbend has declined in eat-in service. After serving the meal, they do not come back and ask how the first few bites are or check in if we need anything else. In addition, we have to ask for a water refill. We thought this was a one off time but it is now consistent each time we dine in. The food is good, that’s why we keep going back.

Love this little spot. Food was affordable, delicious, and just the right portion size for myself. Everyone working at the restaurant had a smile and waved at us, which is just a nice feeling. I will be going back.

Phenomenal food and great service! I've tried both their Leduc and Riverbend locations and they're consistently on point!

PhoXpress Riverbend is one of our most favourite restaurants in Edmonton. Why? They have most delicious food, fantastic friendly service, and unparalleled cleanliness. This evening, we ordered some spring rolls, noodle soup with satay chicken, and vermicelli bowl with vegetables and lemon grass chicken. All three items are great in taste. The price is extremely reasonable. Many thanks to the chef and servers. We love to come back here.
