Best Times to Visit Vietnam Palace

Saturday Morning Pho (Opens at 10 AM)

Vietnam Palace opens an hour earlier on Saturdays at 10:00 AM — making it one of the few Vietnamese restaurants in Ottawa that opens for a proper weekend brunch pho. Start your Saturday with a steaming bowl of pho before exploring Ottawa’s vibrant Chinatown neighbourhood, checking out the shops on Somerset St W, or heading to nearby Dundonald Park.

Weekday Lunch (11 AM – 2 PM)

Our kitchen runs efficiently at lunch, making us ideal for office workers, downtown visitors, and Chinatown regulars who need a satisfying, fast, and affordable midday meal. Pho, rice plates, and vermicelli bowls are popular lunch choices that fill you up without slowing you down for the afternoon ahead.

Early Dinner (5 PM – 7 PM)

Beat the dinner rush by arriving between 5 and 7 PM on weekday evenings. You’ll get quick seating, freshly prepared food, and time to enjoy the full dining experience without a long wait. This window is especially popular on Wednesdays and Thursdays when the restaurant is busy but not overwhelmed.

Late Dinner (Until 10 PM)

Kitchen closes at 10 PM six days a week, making Vietnam Palace one of Ottawa’s later Vietnamese dining options. If you’re finishing work late, craving pho after an evening show at the NAC, or just want a satisfying late-night bowl, we’ve got you covered right until closing.

What’s Available During All Hours

Our full 100+ dish menu is available during all operating hours. Unlike some restaurants that run a limited midday menu, at Vietnam Palace everything is available from opening to close — including our famous pho, lemongrass beef and chicken, crispy spring rolls, fresh salad rolls, broken rice plates, and Vietnamese noodle soups. No waiting for “dinner menu” to begin.

Planning Around Tuesday Closures

Vietnam Palace is closed every Tuesday. This is our team’s rest day — it’s how we maintain the quality and freshness that keep our guests coming back. If you’re planning a group outing or a special dinner, we recommend booking a table any other day of the week. Reservations are recommended for groups of 6 or more, especially on Friday and Saturday evenings when demand is highest.

Holiday Hours

On statutory holidays like Canada Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, our hours may vary slightly. We recommend calling ahead at (613) 238-6758 before making a special trip during holiday periods. We’ll do our best to stay open for you whenever we can.
