Worst service I've ever had in a restaurant. We came in with the place basically empty but then parties coming in 20 minutes after us had their orders taken first. Extremely understaffed. After half an hour we had to flag down the server to get our order taken. Another hour to get food.

Ludicrously tiny portions. As someone who eats a lot of pho it was shocking. Even in a touristy district like Old Montreal there are far better places nearbye. Pho bowl was tiny, the broth luke warm.

Avoid at all costs if you like decent service, value, &/or good Vietnamese place. Total trashbag of a restaurant.

Two years ago I stayed in Old Mtl. Came here & end up changing other dinner plans just to come back. Everything tasted so good. The Bahn Mi & Pho Soup were SOO flavourful. Writing this review now because I was just thinking about how good it was hah.

I enjoyed my pho (even though it came with chicken & did not have a beef option, which is a bit strange in pho terms), but my girlfriend did not like the tofu. So 4 star is a middle ground. The atmosphere & service were great though.

My three kids & two parents ate here after AURA at the Basilica Notre Dame. The space is super cozy & clean & the food was excellent. We tried the Pho, Pad Pho, & Bun. We were very happy with the choice. The prices are much better than the bar-food options nearby & the food is better! The server also was very tolerant & helpful when we had an allergy question.

A lovely lunch spot with super friendly & helpful staff. They helped me choose - without pushing the bigger sizes. I had a small grilled chicken pho, a grill tofu fresh roll, & a small bottle of beer. CA$35 (with tip included)
Yet - the star of my lunch was their house made SATE! An unforgettable condiment!

Was a decent Pho experience, most of the menu is chicken or tofu. I had grilled chicken pho & spring rolls, the chicken was grilled well. The pho broth was fine, the drink menu is good not anything special.

We were getting a tickle in our throats & craved some hot soup. We picked the grilled chicken pho noodle. I chose the large size & asked if they had some spicy peppers for it. At first she said no but another girl said yes. A couple of small, red, very hot & spicy peppers came on the side with my soup. It was great & really helped my throat. We like it. My wife said she wished it came with a little more broth. Other than that, perfect. After they served us, it became very busy, obviously a popular place for lunch.

When I first tried this place two years ago I thought the food was average.

Since then I have returned a few times & every time I go I have been more & more impressed.

I have had the chicken pho & I love the quality & freshness of the chicken.

The banh mi, especially the pork is super flavorful with fresh crispy bread & tender pork. The only thing I can possibly say is I wish it was a tad spicier but I will ask for that next time.

I will be back the next time I am in the area.
