Pho Anh only sells delicious food with traditional Vietnamese flavor. Originating from a small Nam Vang Hu Tieu restaurant at 94 Nguyen Tri Phuong, Saigon, Vietnam, which was started in 1982 by a Cambodian refugee Pol Pot family. Pho Anh proudly sells only famous pure Vietnamese dishes with distinctive flavours, original display. Pho Anh first opened its doors to Canadian diners in August 2014 in Vaughan, Ontario. The perfect combination of unique Vietnamese cooking art in a cozy and clean space has allowed Pho Anh to gain the wide trust of the majority of diners.
Pho Anh is described as a cozy welcoming spot offering authentic Northern Vietnamese flavors with a focus on house made broths and sauces where dishes such as pho, bun cha, broken rice and crispy wings stand out. Reviewers highlight rich flavorful broths, fresh ingredients, and generous portions at a good value, with many calling the pho the best they have had in Montreal or even in Canada. The service and atmosphere are frequently praised, with experienced staff and a warm family feel, though a few comments note slower service during busy times and occasional delays or mix ups. Vegetarian options are available and the broth is prepared separately to accommodate meat free dining, which many diners appreciate. Overall, Pho Anh is seen as a standout for authentic Vietnamese cooking, a reliable go to when craving comforting bowls and distinctive homemade sauces, and a place many plan to revisit.
The food was fresh & very tasty: I recommend the papaya salad, brisket pho, & coconut ice cream. The owner was really welcoming & explained he cooks the broth for 3 days.
Amazing pho, extremely authentic & flavourful. The owner is awesome too - he really takes pride in his food & making sure you have a great experience. Get the egg yolk!!!
Officially my favorite spot for Pho in Montreal. Just found this little gem today, & so happy I did. The pho was authentic like the one from Hanoi. Do yourself a favour & try this spot!! Little extra : service is A++++. So cozy & welcoming

northern plates, the pho ga is extremely good. the noodles pho are quality. beef salad is very good as well, it has a personal touch. bun chan meats are better than in hanoi. my only ask is to give more herbs!! Vietnamese food is all about herbs!
Finally A U T H E N T I C North Vietnam Pho. The best one ever so happy I discovered this place. The broth is fantastic & the chef made me a delicious bowl even I showed at closing time. So nice to see someone taking pride in his cooking. This is my new favorite place 🍜💛
So, I was in a mood: specifically, a mood for Vietnamese food. My taste buds were chanting "pho ga, pho ga!" So off we went in search of that magical chicken soup. They gave us a choice: clear rice noodles or "regular." Staff suggested the clear noodles, saying that's the traditional way they roll in Vietnam, & who am I to argue with noodle wisdom? So, my partner & I went for it, & let me tell you: chef's kiss. Tasty, delicious, & had me wondering if I could buy a lifetime supply. Oh, & there was a dipping sauce for the chicken-delightful little bonus. Plus, free water! Because hydration is important, kids. & get this: the bathroom had Michael Jackson album covers plastered all over. As an MJ fan, I might've done a little moonwalk right then & there. Total damage? About $37 with tip, & for two people? Total bargain 😉

We had a craving for Pho on a chilly fall day in Montreal. This place does not disappoint. The owner personally came up to us & explained that the pho he serves here is true to what a traditional pho in Vietnam would be like. He explained the difference in flavor & serving preparations between what you normally find in western style pho restaurants & what you find in Vietnam. The quality speak for itself, everything was delicious, fresh, & prepared with care. If you are anywhere in central Montreal, this place is worth coming to.
C'était très bon & le bol de pho était pas mal gros. Mon seul bémol est peut-être pour ce qui est de la viande utilisée dans le pho : tantôt un morceau contenant trop de gras, tantôt une tranche de ce qui semble être du baloney à la dinde. Peut-être un autre bémol sur le fait que la personne nous ayant reçu ne parlait pas du tout français & a dû appeler une autre employée à sa rescousse. Sinon, je n'ai rien à redire d'autre de mauvais. Ce fut une belle expérience que je n'hésiterais pas à répéter, surtout là où c'est situé à quelques pas du cégep du vieux.
Vegetarian pho! It can be so hard to find a vegetarian pho, & this one is truly a gem. An impeccable balance of salt & umami flavor with diverse textures & perfect freshness melding together in one bowl. It's one of those dishes that leave you feeling not just full, but nourished. The atmosphere is warm, cozy, & inviting; perfect for that important business meeting or very special date. Next time I'm back in Montreal, this place will be on my short list.
Great authentic Vietnamese restaurant with authentic Pho soup. Best Pho in Montreal! Service was good even though the restaurant was busy. I highly recommend it!
The chicken pho was delicious! Very big portion, the noodles were thick & tasty, & the broth was refreshing. The chicken pieces were a little too fatty for my taste, but cooked perfectly. The lady that served me was very helpful & kind, & the vietnamese coffee was lovely!
Une très belle découverte! Le service est impeccable, le bouillon de la Pho est délicieux. Assurément un des meilleur en ville. Je recommande fortement.
Friendly service. Got the B2. Was very happy they didn't look it bean sprouts in their Pho. Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk was delicious. Nice space.
Forgot to leave a review!!! Got the Veg Pho & traditional Beef wit the egg yolk - man serving (owner) was incredibly kind & explained traditions as well as eating technique to my partner who was not skilled with chop sticks. Love from Nova Scotia
