Reviews of G&T Book Cafe - Vietnamese Restaurant (Coffee Shop)

Bohalem Amani

(Translated) We ate at this restaurant as a family ... it was the only one still open after 8 pm in this rather quiet part of the island. A great discovery. We were received like royalty by the owner, a smiley and very customer oriented. We loved our evening. The food is authentic and tasty. The presentation of the dishes were very neat. In short, an excellent Vietnamese restaurant… You could even bring back some souvenirs from the owners' shop ???????? (Original) Nous sommes allés mangé dans ce restaurant en famille… c’était le seul encore ouvert après 20 heures dans ce coin de l’île plutôt calme. Une belle découverte. Nous avons été reçu comme des rois par le propriétaire, un être souriant et très orienté client. Nous avons adoré notre soirée. La nourriture est authentique et savoureuse. La présentation des plats étaient très soignée. Bref un excellent restaurant vietnamien… Vous pourriez même ramener quelques souvenirs de la boutique des propriétaires ????????

The pork pho/noodle soup was absolutely delicious... but the chicken spring rolls.. the best I've had on the island! Thanks for bringing tasty authentic vietnamese food to Summerside, PEI Dai-Nga, will be back for more! Oh by the way, did I tell you your spring rolls are insanely yummies?! If you made giant ones, I'd give you 6-stars????

The pork buns are amazing! We moved to PEI from Ontario a little over four years ago and we have missed having a variety of cuisines available so was delighted to find Vietnamese available now in Summerside! :)

MJ Doyle

Delicious Pho...best broth I have ever had, the spring rolls are amazing, and the staff are so nice. Cute little quiet place to have a lunch and read a book. Peaceful little joint. An adorable addition to Summerside!

David Lord-Riehl

A new place with great food, and ultra friendly owners/staff. Has takeout, eat in, and delivery.

The pho beef noodle soup was delicious and authentic, one of the best beef noodle soups I have ever had in Canada. We have also tried freshly made pineapple and mango smoothies, which were tasty. The desserts, tiramisu and panna cotta, were mouthwatering. The Vietnamese coffee was top notch (must try if you drink coffee). In summary, it is a cozy place with delicious food, tasty drinks, great customer service and lots of cool souvenirs. We are coming back again soon to try the new items on the menu.

Stacey Pineau

Jessie Caseley

Authentic Vietnamese food!

Ron Grady

Such lovely service in a super unique space right in downtown! The owners were so sweet and kind to make us feel at home even though we arrived just before closing time! The pho was fantastic, a perfectly warm and nuanced flavour. Had a blast browsing through the books and trinkets as well! Can’t wait to return next time we’re there.

Marsha Empson

Derek Knell

I had the pho and pork dumpling, both were well made and delicious.

Kathy Hopkins

The food is delicious. Everyone must try this restaurant!!! The service cant be beat. Dont let the words "Vietmese Restaurant" scare you. They serve foods you eat, just by a other name AND in a delicious manor. Go there. You will be so pleasantly surprised with food, the portions, the low prices and the FANTASTIC Service.

Parker Barnaby

Wonderful little restaurant with some of the best Pho I've had! The family that runs the place is super enthusiastic and extremely welcoming. Couldn't recommend it more! Have a Vietnamese Coffee while your there, so tasty.

Heather

Fantastic menu - I have a list! Today was Bánh mi day. Delicious! Spring rolls are wonderful & the cheesecake just topped it off! So tasty???? You can taste the love, care & attention to detail here. They use authentic ingredients & preparation techniques. Yummy!! That’s the food...the service! Superb! ???? ???? ???? The owners/family are the most lovely people! I felt like family...on my 1st visit! ❤️ Next up....Medium Rare Beef Pho + Vietnamese Coffee....the sound of the broth preparation is already making me drool

Norman Davie

Delicious food and attentive service. Authentic Vietnamese food

Becky Nguyen

Hands down the best Vietnamese food in Atlantic Canada. This is the real deal - the food tastes just like in Vietnam: fresh, healthy, and delicious. They even had smoothies and a selection of desserts, including tiramisu at bargain prices. The restaurant was very clean and service was excellent. All in all, a must-try if you are in PEI.

Jullie T. Murphy

If you are looking for real authentic Vietnamese food, this is definitely the place. I have been in various Vietnamese restaurants in Atlantic Canada but this is the one you will enjoy the taste without travelling to Saigon to have. Great food, good price, vegan and gluten free friendly. Highly recommended.

Emmet MacLellan

Always good.

Annie Grégoire-Gauthier

(Translated) Excellent food and warm welcome! Pho soups are a must. I absolutely recommend! (Original) Excellente nourriture et accueil chaleureux! Les soupes Pho sont incontournables. Je recommande absolument!

Alen Joe Francy

Food was great but the wait time is really long

Kristina Duffee

The best Vietnamese food and service. Lovely kind service that went above and beyond. It was a treat to try all the different authentic Vietnamese food offered and I couldn’t pick my favourite item. They are all delicious. We’ll be back many many times. Thank you!

Laura Jazmin Reyes Castillo

Delicious food and great service! Loved the presentation of our meal.

Natalie Noble

Absolutely delicious freshly prepared Vietnamese food and specialty coffees with above and beyond service. I am so grateful I discovered G&T Book Cafe today, especially feeling so generously welcomed. I'll be back soon!

Stuart Gerus

Best pho I've ever eaten (and I eat pho quite often). We were told the pho broth is made from scratch in a 20 hour process, and the taste reflects that.

Aleksandra Novicic

I was buying a present for my hubby! The lady owner was very nice and she prepares best New York Cheesecake we ever eat! If you want a big one you have to order first she is very busy! You can find a lot of cheap things and suvenires. I bought delicious Fruite pure for me is very healthy antioxidant. Will go again for a lunch for sure! If you are a book lover it's nice sunny place for reading a book!

Mitchell Perry

I had a great experience. The service was great and the food was very well prepared. I'm looking forward to my next visit.

Amy Beair

Soooooo friendly!!! Soooooo delicious!!!!!

Dov T

Completely blown away by authenticity. If I closed my eyes I'd swear I was back in Vietnam. This place is absolutely incredible. Every dish better than the next. The staff are so personable and take pride in their business. Worth the trip to Summerside!

Amazing, authentic vientnamese cuisine and very friendly staff!

Dai Cao Nguyen Ba

It is a pretty restaurant and good services. Phở noodles is very delicious. Amazing.

Hali Reimer-Chaplin

Such AMAZING food with friendly service. This is not a place to come if you're in a hurry (unless you think ahead enough to order in advance), but the wait is well worth it. I'll gladly wait for a meal that's all fresh and handmade to order!

Omar T

Absolutely amazing food, and the people behind the food are just as great! I highly recommend, and if you haven’t had Vietnamese food before, there is no better place in town!

Mahalia Golnosh Tahririha

The food was delicious and fresh. Most flavourful pho broth I have ever had! The staff/owners are extremely welcoming and friendly.

Tyson Milligan

Absolutely amazing food and customer service!

Katherine Holmes

Delicious and friendly. We had the banh mi and coffees yesterday and, while we were eating, we were already planning what we’d order next time. I told my mom how good it was and she went today. She is now raving about their spring rolls, pho, and strawberry smoothie.

Ronald Schafer

The food was delicious and the owner is so nice and very attentive. Amazing place!!!!!

Julie Campbell

Great, authentic Vietnamese food by a friendly owner and his family ! Highly recommend!

Tim Gamble

As good as a Bombay and Fever Tree on a hot summer’s day… We had a couple of Banh Mi sandwiches that were quite authentic and very tasty. Prices are too good. They need to add a dollar to all the prices.

E B

A wonderful family dinner! We had spring rolls, pork wontons, rice wraps, bahn mi, and several different types of pho. Everything was so delicious. The coffee was excellent, just perfect. The service was terrific; everyone was so cheerful and helpful. Go to G&T - treat yourself!

sheri myer
