Nam was mentioned in a Toronto Life article, so the Big J and I had lunch there today. The restaurant was full when we arrived, but we only had about a five minute wait until we were seated. Big J had pork bún, while I enjoyed chicken pho. Big J thought the bún was the best he has had in a restaurant and the flavourful chicken pho had just the right amount of chicken and two quail eggs. Excellent food for a fair price makes this a place to visit again. Apologies for no photos. I didn’t think of taking one until well into lunch.

" Nam 2 "!!!..Was that a typo? Are you describing the place on Leslie just south of 16th Ave, next to the Shell station? If so, then the place is just called ’ NAM '…or is ’ Nam 2 ’ a new place by the same owner that I am not aware of??
If you like the place, then you should pay it a visit on the weekend where they offer some awesome specials like a super complex and mildly spicy ’ Bun Rieu ’ with butter sauteed crispy softshell crab! Yummm!
I’m a bit confused about the name. The restaurant sign says nam but their instagram says nam2, as does the Toronto life article. I was at the place on Leslie. Instagram shows a second restaurant on Kennedy.
I’m definitely going back to try some of their specials. We thought the owner was a really nice guy and the hostess (his wife, maybe?) was also friendly and attentive. I was very impressed at how quickly they were able to produce such tasty and well-plated food.

They have two locations! Nam is on Leslie and 16th while their second location “Nam 2” is on Kennedy. Both are great.
