Review Summary

Baan Lao emerges in these reviews as a warm, affordable halal friendly spot that blends Bangladeshi, Vietnamese and halal options in a cozy, family owned space. Diners praise fresh ingredients, generous portions, and flavorful pho and banh mi, with beef pho and skewers singled out as standouts and the broth described as rich and well balanced. The service is repeatedly described as friendly, welcoming, and attentive, often with small perks like complimentary tea, and the atmosphere makes it a good spot for families and friends, open late and conveniently near transit. Dishes such as grilled skewers, fuchka, samosas, and vegetarian options appear in strong praise, while a few reviews note slower service during busy times, occasional inconsistency in some orders, and isolated issues like a stray hair or drink quality. Overall, Baan Lao is viewed as a cozy, value driven halal dining option worth trying for those seeking a halal Vietnamese and Bangladeshi fusion.

Excellent service des employés, on se sentait bien accueilli, pas pressé de finir de manger. La nourriture était délicieuse & authentique d'un fusion Vietnamienne & Bangladaise! On nous a offert du thé en attendant notre repas puisqu'il y avait une tempête de neige! Je recommande fortement & c'est très budget friendly!

Place is great for a mix for Bengali & Vietnam. The sandwich is super good & their appetizers are top notch. Hidden gem but definitely worth trying out.

Plain & simple, this place offers the best of two unique cuisines coming together. From the genuine warm service to the delicious taste of the food (& really good quality ingredients)- safe to say, you'll be happy to have given Baan Lao a shot! Big thank you to Taufik & the rest of his crew 😌.

Baan Lao is a hidden gem for Asian fusion in Montréal. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, & clearly made with care. Everything we tried was well-seasoned & balanced, with generous portions that actually leave you full.

The menu has a great variety (noodles, rice dishes, grilled items, & appetizers), so there's something for everyone, whether you like comforting classics or bolder flavors. The chicken & shrimp dishes were especially delicious, & the sauces really stand out.

Another big plus is that the food is halal, which makes it an easy & reliable choice. Service was friendly & efficient, & the place has a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Prices are very reasonable for the quality & portion size. Whether you're dining in or ordering takeout, Baan Lao is definitely worth it. Highly recommend!

I went there today with my friend, we had the beef pho, chicken pho & the entry for two that contained skewers of beef/chicken/shrimp & lamb, imperial rolls, chicken wings & fried potatoes. IT WAS INCREDIBLE!! The broth of the pho is so flavourful it hits perfectly, the seasonings of the skewers & its meat are so flavourful & tender it melted on our tongues. The food was a big 10/10, I've NEVER tasted such a delicious meal, I was in a flow state with my friend. The service was extremely fast, we didn't even wait long, the lady was incredibly charming & sweet, she made sure we were comfortable & didn't need anything. It was a fair amount that we paid too which is rare to see in Montreal, for such tender meat & flavourful food it definitely deserved its price! So so so perfect, we will DEFINITELY come back!! ❤?❤?❤?❤?
