Pho Anh

I am not usually one to write reviews. But after deeper thoughts, our experience at Pho Anh was so pleasant that it made the talk of our drive home & our family dinner today.

We came on a Sunday night with grumpy faces & sore feet as our original reservation at another Pho restaurant was cancelled upon short notice. We looked online & saw Pho Anh had the best ratings in all montreal so this was our last resort. It was very busy when we came in & we weren't expecting much but BOY was i wrong!

Anh! I dont know what magic goes in that kitchen but you've got to tell me the secret. I got the meatball soup. Let me tell you: the first sip made my mood turn a whole 180 degree! The taste brought me back to my old days in vietnam. I haven't seen this dish in such a long time that I had completely forgotten how good it is. We also got the crispy wings as starter. Though I must say, for such a busy night, me & my family were more than pleasantly surprised by the quality of the service! Despite the busy crowd, our waitress took the time to guide us with the menu. See, I have vietnamese roots but after moving here I have forgotten most of my mother language. My wife as for her, is only fluent in french & my mother came here for a short visit so she only speaks vietnamese. Regardless of the language barrier among us, Vyvy was kind enough to help us understand every dishes & even took the time to go back & forth between three different languages!! JUST to ensure that we could enjoy our meal the best way possible. It always amazes me how talented these youngsters are. She had such genuine positivity & excitement that her joy might have been the secret ingredient.

But I have to say: Anh, your daughter has very promising sales skills. From the poached egg to the coffee, best part: they arent just trying to sell but care deeply about your experience. She gave very honest yet effective advertising ( the poached egg is a must get). Anyways enough blabla, this place is a true gem for vietnamese cuisine fanatics although i must be honest it gets busy FAST & there seems to be very little staff. I don't want to seem nosy yet seeing a little girl running an entirely filled restaurant while her colleagues were almost no where to be seen does get concerning. Management might need a little improvement but aside from that, the service & the food made it all worthwhile! Will definitely recommend to all my friends!

If you're visiting Montreal… this is one Vietnamese restaurant you need to try. It's on a strip with many choices & this is one for you. Small place what looks like family owned & operated & it's busy so you know food is good yet no waiting time.
Very friendly staff & quick to served. Food is tasty & very fresh. Priced more reasonable than most similar places elsewhere. No matter what you order you will be happy.

Exceptional customer service. The atmosphere is nice!
The food is amazing! I ordered the bun cha & it was fantastic! I reminded me of the one that i had in viet nam. The meat is moist & tender but still has the charred flavour from the grill. Their spring roll is crispy from the outside & soft on the inside. Also had a both of chicken broth. Best broth ever.

Service is slow, restaurant is super hot. $20 for a bowl of pho that barely has any meat & noodles. Ordered a strawberry smoothie, & it was practically like water & got the smoothie right as we were ready to leave & pay rather than at the beginning when we first ordered it. The food here is nothing special nor is the place. Definitely would suggest trying other pho places.

I guess growing up in Vancouver I got spoiled on good pho. If you're from Vancouver or Toronto, don't bother with this place as you'll be disappointed. If you're from Nunavut, sure this could be a nice pho place. On a side note, the place really needs AC in 30 degree weather.

Bon restaurant vietnamien mais la qualité de la viande laisses à désiré les morceaux de viande sont vraiment brouillon & la moitié de l'assiette est rempli d'une salade sans assaissonnement. Nous étions 8 & le service a été vraiment en décallé.

Les rouleaux étaient délicieux & malgré mes commentaires je ne suis pas déçu je considères seulement qu'il y a beaucoup de chose à améliorer au niveau de l'équilibre de l'assiette. Au niveau des goûts c'était bon.

Probably the best Pho in Montreal. Love their fish sauce wings & the rare beef pho. Small restaurant but service was extremely attentive
