We visited Gaia Restaurant & ordered one of their combo meals, & it exceeded our expectations. The meal was incredibly generous & included soup, salad, spring rolls, rice with chicken, a fried banana dessert, & even a cup of coffee. The portion sizes were excellent, offering great value for the price, & every item was fresh & delicious.

What made the experience even better was the outstanding hospitality. Both the server & the owner were exceptionally kind, welcoming, & helpful throughout our visit.

Overall, the food, portions, & service were all fantastic. We had an amazing experience at Gaia Restaurant & would highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Vietnamese food in Québec City. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely amazing food, authentic Vietnamese. I went there with my team for lunch & everyone enjoyed it! I had Tonkiniose with chicken & it warmed me on a cold day… We'll be back soon!

Authentic Vietnamese restaurant with good price! We visited since this restaurant has high rating & not far from the market. The food was really good & I was totally satisfied. We had grilled beef, pho, & fried rice. They were all good. When I come next time, I would like to order more traditional dishes.

Gaia Restaurant est une véritable perle vietnamienne à Montréal. L'authenticité des plats est remarquable - chaque bouchée nous a rappelé les saveurs du Vietnam. Le service était tout simplement exceptionnel : chaleureux, attentionné & professionnel. C'est rare de trouver une expérience aussi complète. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter lors de notre prochain passage à Montréal. Merci pour ce moment inoubliable !

I highly recommend this restaurant!

The food was excellent, very flavorful & authentic. The salt & pepper shrimp didn't even make it home they were so good!

There was a misunderstanding with my order that caused some confusion on my part, but the owner personally reached out to clarify & resolve it. It's rare to see that level of passion & care.
