Pho Ok

What is Pho Ok? Tucked inside the commercial plaza at 4664 Yonge Street near Sheppard Avenue, Pho Ok is a bright, unfussy North York spot dedicated to comforting, scratch-made Vietnamese comfort food. The dining room is casual and utilitarian, outfitted with simple wooden tables and clean finishes that comfortably accommodate quick solo lunches and bustling family dinners alike.

Pho Ok Menu & What to Order The kitchen centers its soup program on an 18-hour simmered beef broth with clean, rich depth, best experienced in their signature sizzling stone bowl pho loaded with a tender beef short rib. Beyond the noodles, order the standout fish sauce glazed chicken wings served with chewy sticky rice, the chargrilled betel leaf beef vermicelli, or the classic pork chop broken rice. Pair your bowl with a strong cà phê sữa đá (Vietnamese iced coffee) or sweet Thai milk tea.

Know Before You Go Service is strictly walk-in with rapid table turnover, though lunch hours and weekend evenings can bring brief rushes of local office workers and nearby condo residents. A major perk for this strip of Yonge is free underground parking for dine-in guests, while transit users have an easy five-minute walk south from Sheppard-Yonge station. The restaurant is open daily from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., capping every dine-in meal with a complimentary soft serve cone.
