XO Bistro + Bar
Not always traditional, but always authentic.
OUR LOCATIONS
Inspired Vietnamese Cuisine
XO Bistro + Bar opened its first location in 2017 in the heart of downtown Edmonton. Driven by the idea to leave a mark, we introduced a diverse menu founded on the authentic flavors of Vietnam, while modernizing the concept of a local hangout and bustling lounge much like those found on the busy streets of Ho Chi Minh, Hanoi, and Da Nang cities. In 2021, we welcomed a second venue in South Edmonton that upholds the same traditions of great food and great service in a cozy and lively atmosphere.
Discover small bites, full entrees, hearty noodle soups—all the beloved favorites and newly inspired dishes. Enjoy our XO lounge and bar with quality spirits, classic and XO original cocktails, wine by the glass or bottle, and varied beer on tap.
Everything comes together in thoughtfully designed spaces for your casual dining experiences.
