Across many reviews, I AM PHO is seen as a cozy, welcoming spot with rich broth, generous portions, and consistently tasty pho, while the staff are frequently described as friendly and attentive and service is often praised as quick, especially for takeout. The broth is repeatedly highlighted as flavorful and the noodles and beef tender, with mentions of fresh ingredients and good value. Some critiques note occasional inconsistencies in meat quality or flavor, overly salty broth, or bland notes in certain bowls, and a few comments point to packaging issues or cramped spaces; overall, the place is regarded as a reliable go to for authentic Vietnamese pho and a pleasant dining or pickup experience, with visitors calling it a standout in the area and noting improvements at newer locations.
Good experience at I Am Pho. I had the #17 & I must say that it had a little something the other pho restaurants on the street do not have.
Next time I'll have to try one of their soups since it seems to be their specialty!
Also, their Chè Ba Màu was pretty good! Glad the staff recommended it to me :)
Edit: Came back for the soup 😳 & I WILL come back again. 🤤
The staff was once again remarkable.
The food was very good when they first opened. The soup's are still okay..But the meat & shrimp plates don't have the desired quality or flavor. The portions are mainly rice.
The spring rolls are over stuffed vermicelli noodles if your lucky you'll find 1 shrimp & a cilantro leaf.
It's disappointing I used to order from here at least once a week...now it's much less..& in the future probably not at all 😔

Warmed up on a chilly -20 day with a steaming bowl of beef pho at this restaurant! Happened to be in the area for a massage appointment, & stumbled upon this gem. Satisfying & flavorful, just what I needed. Great spot for a comforting meal!
Je suis une habituée de I am Phô. Je voulais essayer la nouvelle succursale à Verdun. J'ai commande la soupe pho au poulet. Déception... moins de légumes, moins de poulet. Ce n'est pas aussi savoureux que sur Guy, Lacombe ou Brossard & le resto est loins chaleureux.
Ce n'est la recette d'origine de 🇻🇳 , en tant qu'un fans de Pho, pratiquement gouté tous les restaus de pho à Montréal, malheureusement, j'y retourne plus. Le bol comprend très peu de protéines, quasiment les nouilles de riz & soupe pour 20$🫠 & le tips !
Il faisait un peu froid près de la porte! Mais l'ambiance douce relax & la nourriture était vraiment bien. La dame au service était super gentille. Je reviendrai .
This a is one of my favorite establishments on the Well, definitely go-to no matter what time of day.
I typically get the pho, I've tried majority of them & they're all delicious!
Today, I tried the #17, as it wasn't quite'pho weather.' It was exactly what I wanted, as I typically get the grilled chicken pho (#13). But I also wanted their imperial rolls, so when I saw this option, I was excited!
The bowl was delicious, as expected. I don't know what it is about their grilled chicken, but I crave it often.
Lastly, what makes this one of my favorite spots is their host/server, Stephanie.
I've worked in customer service for over a decade & unfortunately, the bar is so low nowadays.
As for Stephanie, her customer service goes above & beyond. She's attentive, kind, has a positive attitude & does everything with a smile!
Don't get me wrong, I'll keep coming back for the food, but if I see that Stephanie is working, I'm more likely to enjoy a meal, the service & the atmosphere.
P.S. Today, they were playing slow jazz, which is appreciated!
Pho was bland, you could see through the meat because it was so thin. Portions are to be reviewed with the price. There are better options in Verdun
Water tasted pretty funky too
Finally a good Pho place on Wellington.
Pho was absolutely delicious & reasonably priced & I was impressed by how fast the service was. No complaints, great addition to the neighborhood.

Delicious!! The best I Am PHO location in Montreal. Highly recommend. The broth for both the pho & bun bo hue (lots of lemongrass, which is perfect) is on point.
The atmosphere was nice, the service was good, however food taste was off & water that was served to us tasted bad. I did not like the pho & only ate half of it. I found that the broth way too salty, lacked flavor, & maybe it's just me, but I found it strange to see big pieces of broccoli in a pho. I also had an issue with the water. It tasted like straight iodine, even after changing it. Overall, I was not impressed.
Restaurant Vietnamien opéré par des nationalités toutes autres que Vietnamiennes. La serveuse parlait à peine français. La soupe aux légumes était une immense agglomération de nouilles avec très très peu de légumes & assurément un peu de bouillon. On aurait aimé plus que 4 petits cubes de tofu. Lors de la remise de ma monnaie, heureusement que j'ai compté à la caisse, il manquait 10$. Le décor est sobre, mais sombre, presque tout noir clairsemae de quelques peintures. Lorsqu'on ouvre la porte, un courant d'air froid envahit l'endroit, attention à votre choix d'emplacement de table. La musique de jazz plaisante.

Decent little place. Food is good but slightly less quantity then other pho places. Quality is good too. Prices prety standard for what it is. Not a lot of choices but good in what they do have.
