Toronto restaurant earns international award for interior design

A Toronto restaurant has just taken home a prestigious international award for exceptional interior design.

Phở Anh Vũ, which opened in Don Mills a few years ago, has been seeing immense praise for its authentic Vietnamese cuisine — and beyond that — a trailblazing atmosphere.

This marriage of design and quality has not gone unnoticed, as the location has recently been awarded a 2026 INT Interior Design Award.

This global honour is scattered across several categories (Commercial, Residential and Public) as well as numerous sub-categories, which take into account major achievements in interior design ranging from restaurants, condos, houses, and modern office spaces.

Having won in the Commercial category, Phở Anh Vũ shouted out their design team, Fianne Yu and 7K Design Ltd., in an Instagram post.

“The result is more than an award-winning interior; it’s an experience that celebrates Vietnamese culture, heritage, and hospitality,” read the post. “Thank you, Fianne and the entire 7K Design team, for your creativity, passion, and dedication.”

As for key highlights that earned Phở Anh Vũ international recognition, the INT Interior Design Award website stated that the aesthetic, built on contemporary Vietnamese-Indochine design, blew them out of the water; further praising its timber seating area, decorative terracotta, bamboo lighting, and lush greenery.

Ownership stated in their victory post that this design was built from the ground up to “Create more than just a restaurant. We wanted our guests to feel as though they had been transported to Vietnam the moment they walked through our doors.”

For those who want to experience this transformative dining space, they can find Phở Anh Vũ at 900 Don Mills Rd. in Richmond Hill.
