This place continues to be 5 stars - their Japanese style fried shrimp & pho bo are my absolute favourite. On top of that - it's probably fanciest dining room among any Vietnamese restaurant I go to, but for the same good value. There menu is vast & everything I tried was excellent.
The service, setting & everything else but the pho was great, if you are only coming for a romantic date this place is fine, but as someone that enjoys good pho, that was really subpar. Out of all the pho places I went to in Montreal, 30+ , this was among worst ones. The broth was barely ok, not a good one but fine, no aroma from spices just bone broth flavour. The beef though, it looks like they buy the frozen fondue slices, that's how bad the beef quality was. Even the poorest restaurant in Vietnam served better piece of meat on their pho. Not even a pho dac biet with the usual variety available, just a simple pho Bo & it was still disappointing. I know their restaurant is not a'pho' place specifically but at this point they should either remove it from the menu o learn to make a good one.

We were totally blown away by the special menu - fresh shrimps with wasabi sauce! We loved the sauce so much that we dipped shrimp rolls with it instead of sweet sauce. Pho broth was good & beef was tender. We were happy with the service & ambience too.
Ce bistro vietnamien discret sur Saint André est une véritable pépite. Dès l'entrée, l'ambiance est douce & soignée : luminaires, décor simple & accueillant, parfait pour un dîner tranquille entre amis.
Les classiques vietnamiens sont au rendez-vous, servis avec constance & qualité. Les rouleaux impériaux sont frais, croustillants & généreusement garnis, tandis que les brochettes satay & Le pho, bien que simple, impressionne par son équilibre en textures & en saveur
Le service est impeccable : souriant, attentionné, prompt sans être pressant. Sur la carte, les plats comme le poké ou les grillades sont originaux & montrent une volonté d'offrir plus qu'un menu typique
Le rapport qualité prix est solide pour la qualité offerte, avec des portions généreuses & des prix raisonnables. Bref, un coup de coeur que je recommande sans hésiter à quiconque cherche une expérience chaleureuse & gourmande. J'y retournerai avec plaisir.
Pas à notre première visite , ce Sam 24 Mai , chaque fois un régal , toujours frais , les rouleaux de printemps aux crevettes & sa sauce , Mium , le bun cha gio avec rouleau au porc , goûteux , & un pho aux légumes , service souriant dans la simplicité , merci , à la prochaine

Very nice Vietnamese place, I tried the Pho & it was decent nothing special in all honesty. My noodles were fantastic though great flavour & texture. The imperial rolls were delicious & along with the noodles I got a must try. Someone please give me recommendations for new places in Montreal to go visit! Reply to me in the comments…
Also as a local guide I appreciated they had their google review posted & they definitely know that the reviews don't lie🤓
Cute spot with beautiful plants inside. The fried spring rolls were very delicious as a starter. I ordered a classic rare beef pho & was unfortunately a bit disappointed. I found the broth lacking flavour & quite oily. That being said, it could've been an off day & I'd be willing to try again. On the other hand my boyfriend's chicken vermicelli bowl was very tasty so I would recommend that instead.
We needed some warm nourishing soup to fight the tail end of a lingering cold & just chose this restaurant at random. It is an oasis of quality! A rare find. A place that makes you pay attention to the skill of the kitchen to perform rare feats.
The Pho is a hot stone bowl was not just performance art - it was a delicacy.
I wish I had taken photos. I will return. & I will make a reservation next time as I didn't know it was preferred.
The establishment exudes a quaint charm, with live plants adding a touch of nature to the cozy interior. The meticulous presentation of dishes reflects the care & dedication invested here. Service is exemplary, & a glimpse into the pristine kitchen reveals a commitment to cleanliness. Dishes arrive promptly, with the pho broth standing out-rich in flavor yet devoid of the overuse of MSG, leaving one satisfied without the usual post-meal thirst. The fermented jalapeno slices are a delightful addition, offering a tangy kick. The poke is equally impressive, making this bistro a stellar choice for a date night or a casual meal. A must-visit for those seeking an authentic & thoughtfully crafted Vietnamese dining experience.

The food is good if you go for the pho. Some of the other dishes are hit or miss. the papaya salad, for example, lacked acidity. Overall a nice option in the area.
This is such a gem in Montreal serving authentic Vietnamese foods! The special pho (pho in stone bowl) - Phở Cô Út - is my favourite. It reminds me of my hometown - Hanoi. My partner ordered Bò Lúc Lắc & it was great too! Love the vibe & service. Highly recommended! 🫶
The best Northern Phở in Montreal. You guys have to try it when you are at Co Ut I marked my word because I'm Hanoian & only Co Ut brought me the tast of home, not more not less! I was so emotional. My boyfriend ordered Pas Thai, which was amazing as well. So sad our phones were dead to take pictures but yeah All dishes here were super full, tasty, & filling, worth the price. We are so grateful that the restaurant's owner let us try the iconic dessert: "Bánh Chuối w Ice Cream". Best of the best. Never leave the resto without trying it. The resto is beautiful, cozy luxurious, well design. People there are friendly. They recommend us with so much good food & we definitely will come back ❤️ Thank you for such a good dining experience
Petit bijou - ambiance feutrée, musique douce, on peut entretenir une conversation sans crier. J'ai pris le no. P25 Bún Chả Giò, des rouleaux impériaux avec viande servis sur du vermicelles. C'est excellent & les portions sont généreuses. Belle présentation aussi, j'aurais dû prendre en photo. Mon amie a pris le P18 Phad Thaï Cô Út. J'y ai goûté & wow! Quel mélange de saveurs & épicé juste à point, ni trop, ni trop peu. Les deux plats sont à recommander. Je vais tout de même prendre le Pad Thaï la prochaine fois, question d'avoir plus qu'une bouchée. :) Car, il y aura certainement une prochaine fois!

Coming from Vietnam, my expectations for Vietnamese food are very high. Finding a good bowl of Northern Pho is difficult, but Co Ut did not disappoint. I have to say the broth tastes very authentic. We also ordered imperial rolls, fried chicken, papaya salad, & marinated raw shrimp. All of them taste super good. Definitely will come back whenever I visit Montreal.
Pho is not great. Edible but definitely not very authentic. (Compared to some of the places I've been to in Toronto). Service was good, staff was friendly & atmosphere was nice.ight be back to try something else. But probably not the pho.
My wife & I had great experience here. In a quaint neighborhood near PARC LaFontaine. The food was delicious & added a few twists on some Vietnamese classics. Highly the recommend the chicken satay skewers & clay pot pho. The ambience was relaxed & the space was green & comfortable. There is a reason they have so many 5 star reviews.
Ordered the Pho Bò & Tom Yum soup -delicious & scrumptious. Absolutely also loved the fresh spring rolls, especially the dipping sauce. Service was attentive & excellent - all in a beautiful atmosphere. A definite return on our next visit to Montreal.
