Reviews describe Bun Mam Ninh Kieu as offering tasty southern Vietnamese dishes in a clean, cozy setting with friendly, helpful staff who explain the menu and keep service quick. Dishes like pho, banh mi, and a standout Vietnamese coffee are highlighted for flavor and generous portions, with many diners noting good value and reliable takeout or dine-in experiences. While the experience is largely positive, a few meals are felt to be a touch underseasoned and a couple of comments mention inconsistencies in delivery or seating comfort. Several reviewers call it a neighborhood gem and say they would return to try other items, particularly the distinctive Bun Mam and other specialties. Overall, Bun Mam Ninh Kieu is seen as a solid, authentic option for casual Vietnamese meals with broad menu variety and approachable prices.
Located in the heart of Plateau Mont Royal, Bun Mam Ninh Kieu offers a large variety of vietnamese dishes.
The Banh Xeo (egg crepe with shrimp & bacon) was crispy & taste delicious when dipped into the fish sauce.
Grilled pork Bum Bao was my fav. The pork was grilled to perfection.
The Bun Bo Hue was ok, but acceptable.
Bun mam was nothing special... imo, not enough flavors. Bo la lot was good but portions are small compared to price. Kinda sad no shrimp (or I didn't taste or see any) in my banh bot loc
;(( could easily improve I believe! ;))
The veggie/ tofu banh mi with peanut sauce is AMAZING! I stop here whenever I'm in Montreal. Takeout is ready in like 5 minutes & they have tons of vegan options! The staff is also so nice.

2025 dine in: the grilled beef in betel leaves were delicious. The Singapore noodles that my friend got were well seasoned but she didn't enjoy the dish overall. The BBQ beef Bao buns had no flavour. Service was friendly & efficient. BYOW helps. Aquariums help the otherwise stark black & white decor. 2023 delivery: Banh Kot was alright, basically eggy cakes with a shrimp on top, very filling. Ban tom Ninh kieu was all oil & no taste. Bao thit ko was typical. Bao Xeo was basically an onion omelette, very filling. Lemongrass short ribs were okay. Shrimp were not seasoned in any dish, pretty disappointing overall. Packaging was all styrofoam (not recyclable here)
Delicious! Everything we had here was fantastic. My family loved the bun mam & it reminded us of home. We also had the banh khot, banh tom, & banh hoi with nem nuong which were all great.
Very easy going spot, stepped in for a quick bite & was not disappointed. Bao, banh mi & the pho were fresh & brought out in generous portions. Their Vietnamese iced coffee was also delicious

I picked up a banh mi the other day. It was excellent & the service was so friendly. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very warm & inviting as well, wish I could've stayed. I'll definitely be back! I highly recommend giving this place a try :)
You'll find specialties here that you won't easily find at other Vietnamese places. Be adventurous & try something other than pho / banh mi even though those are delicious here, too.

J'ai pris un banh mi traditionnel pour emporter & j'ai été plus que satisfaite. Le pain était chaud & frais. En plus, il m'a été servi avec le sourire & rapidement.
I have been trying banh mi all over Montreal for a while now, trying to find the best ones & so far this one is my favourite! I had the braised pork with hot peppers on it & it was so tasty & flavourful, with the right amount of heat (if you like it spicy) & a truly excellent bun - fresh, soft & warm. Would highly recommend!
On a mangé le boeuf citronnelle au banh mi, très recommandé ! Le pain était frais & le viande était juteux & savoureux! On reviendra pour essayer autres choses. 🥖
Stopped here while on a weekend trip to Montreal. I had the best Banh Mi I've ever had here. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants an amazing, quick, fresh, & affordable meal. 😁
