Xo Bistro + Bar

love the food and love the atmosphere! Definitely will come back to try the challenge again!

Very impressed with this place. I had Bun Bo hue noodle soup and it was the best i have ever tasted..most place ive been to tasted so plain, but this place is absolutely delicious!! ..The service was great and staff are very friendly. I also had good morning Vietnam cocktail and it was "Oh So Good!" I love how i can have Pho and cocktail at the same place, highly recommend this place.

Torontonian visiting Edmonton for work. Came across this place by accident. Couldn't get a seat because there was a private party. The kind hostess recommended to try Black Pearl. Was impressed by her recommendation, so I came back another night. I was not disappointed! Jamie the bartender took good care of me and I have to say the spicy fish sauce wings were sooooo bomb! Also tried their Viet crepes which also very good! Will visit again next time I'm in town!

Such friendly and amazing staff! Food was so delicious � every bite was an explosion of flavour in your mouth! A definite addition to our favourite places to eat!

Oxtail fries is a must try! Can't wait to come back for lunch too. Pretty cool to eat a bowl of pho while jammin to the Weeknd at the same time�

New favourite spot! This place has a great atmosphere, delicious food, and the service is top notch!!

I love the establishment. Being Vietnamese, I'm more critical on anything related to the cuisine. However, I ordered 4 things: Bun Bo Hue, Betel Leaf Beef, Vietnamese spring rolls, and Rare Beef Salad, none came disappointed. The tapas size was perfect, as I don't like large portions, but still able to enjoy more variety.

Also, the music was great. I would never expect to be enjoying some old school R&B while eating my people's food. It added values into my time there.

Pricing was also really good. I actually expected a much higher bills than what I got.

I also recognize them for their gender-neutral washrooms. Some people seem to be offended by the piece of decor hanging in there, but I find it funny, unless I'm not aware about something.

I have had the privilege of dining here numerous times. The food is incredible & the staff does a great job. Katana is a special person that makes the experience worthwhile. The friends I have brought there share my enthusiasm for this gem of a eatery in the best part of a great city

I have NEVER had food so good in my life!!! No joke , so amazing and the place looks fantastic one block from Rogers place .

I had the Mekong martini and it is a delicious martini drink poured over cotton candy. Our party also had : ginger chicken, the viet crepes (shrimp and beef versions) and the beef cubes and all were amazing. Huge tv screens and very close proximity to Rogers place and the mall. The customer service was outstanding! Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Edmonton!

Have been at the restaurant twice now. Was surprised how modern it was - great large screen. Love the green onion cakes and salad roles. Place is clean, which is important. Love the service the most. First time there were two young girls working, who were very knowledgeable and attentive. The second time there was only one girl (Sunday evening). She was kept very busy, but obviously knows what she was doing, as she kept everyone happy. Restaurant should be happy to have such great staff. We will be back!

Great place downtown to grab a drink or a bite. Definitely coming back!

Great experience from the delicious high quality meals and appetizers to the comfortable modern design. Even some great TVs to catch a game on. I will be back soon to try some more dishes.

Go for lunch quite often the staff are always so welcoming and so kind. The owners always come over to see how everything is. The food is always amazing. I would highly suggest this place.

First time going there, i called in an ordered the ox tail pho for pick up. Was ready in 15 minutes when i got there. Fast and friendly service, nice decor, good place to watch the game or go for drinks. And the oxtail pho was bombbbb, will most definitely be going back there again.

Awesome service and amazing food!! I was surprised by the number of vegan options and they were all so good! Staff were accommodating, friendly and fast! Highly recommend and will definitely be back!!

Amazing food at affordable price! All the staff are super friendly! A great place for a quick bite or to hang out.

Ambience was nice, if a little dark, service was ok. The salad rolls and skewers were excellent, but the noodle bowls were disappointing, in that the noodles were quite over cooked. Will still give it another try.

Why do they have to play loud crappy pop music on the sidewalk in front? I'll never eat here because it makes just walking by unbearable.
