Review Summary

Ong Ca Can is described as offering authentic Vietnamese cuisine with fresh, abundant dishes at very reasonable prices, paired with great ambience and attentive service; diners say the food is impeccable and often exceeds what they have experienced elsewhere in Vietnam, with notes of beef courses, anchovy sauce, fried squid, and a dessert of fried banana chocolate tartufo; the atmosphere blends a warm family feel with modern design, creating a dining mood that feels both welcoming and refined; the restaurant is described as a beloved pillar of Vietnamese cuisine, tied to memories and tradition, and the reopening after a temporary closure is greeted with excitement and a plan to return for celebrations and everyday meals; while a few reviews mention the food as good rather than exceptional, the overall sentiment points to a highly satisfying and soul nourishing experience and strong value.

I have been looking forward to go back since Covid, as it remained close & only started to be open for 3 days a week recently. We had the 7 Beef course set meal & it was better than I remembered. Given the price went up, but generally dining out got expensive due to many factors. If you have not try their specialties 7 beef courses meal, it is a must try next time you come here!!

Essen war ausgezeichnet. Tolle Qualität. Der Service war nicht schlecht aber dem Essen und den Preisen nicht gerecht.

It was such an amazing experience to try the 7 course beef, $90/2 persons. We also ordered the grilled calamari, the side sauce was super spicy 🥵

J'ai découvert hier & j'ai adoré mon expérience. Les mets que nous avons choisis étaient délicieux & le tartuffo à la pistache m'en donne encore l'eau à la bouche. Je l'ajoute à mes endroits à revisiter dans le coin de la place des Arts!

It's a downtown delight that not only offers a stellar service & chic ambience but also surprises with its reasonable prices. The attentive staff, sporting smiles, made us feel truly welcome. The sommelier ensured our glasses were never empty. The seafood stir fry served on trendy dinnerware was spot on. We loved the stylish, softly lit vibe - it was the perfect backdrop for an intimate evening. It's the perfect spot to enjoy an early dinner before heading to an event in the vicinity.

Ça faisait plusieurs années que j'y avais pas mis les pieds, le restaurant a bien changé dans sa structure mais heureusement pas dans sa cuisine. Maintenant le restaurant est sur la mezzanine, quelques tables, une ambiance sympathique. Un menu vin intéressant, des plats vietnamiens savoureux! Tout est très frais & les portions généreuses. J'ai même dit que ça faisait longtemps que j'avais pas mangé d'aussi bons rouleaux impériaux! Outre l'entrée dans le restaurant qui manque de clarté vu qu'on rentre dans un restaurant qui semble en contenir 3 maintenant, tout était à la hauteur de mon souvenir! Le service est super aussi, tout le personnel s'assure que les convives ne manquent de rien.

A la recherche d'un restaurant vietnamien proposant un menu à la découverte des différentes saveurs de boeuf, ce restaurant a été découvert suite à un article paru dans le journal Métro qui faisait le promotion de certains chefs de Montréal.. Par curiosité, nous l'avons testé & nous n'avons pas été du tout déçu !!
