I had a bowl of pho bo (with cooked brisket) & I felt like I was sitting in our favourite restaurant back in Vietnam. It was delicious. I highly recommend this place for its authentic pho bo. :-)
My friends & I enjoyed a delicious meal here while visiting Montreal. When we first entered, it seemed that there would be no seating available, until the owner quickly put together group seating for all six of us. From that moment, we knew we were in for a great experience. The restaurant was very busy when we went, & as such, it did take some time for us to get our food. However, the atmosphere was both fun & comfortable, giving us quality time to talk to one anotherr. Even better, the food more than made up for any wait. I ordered the chicken vermicelli, & most of my friends had the beef pho. The owner came out & gave us excellent advice on how to mix & enjoy our respective dishes, along with great conversation. Each dish was made fresh with real care & dedication; it's clear that everyone who works there puts love into the meals they create, ensuring diners will enjoy them too. To top it off, the Vietnamese iced coffee they served was the best I'd ever had. It was an incredible experience overall. If you're looking for a good meal in a great place, go to Pho Anh.

Best pho I've had in a long time. The flavours in the broth are just awesome. & the owner came & mixed a special spicy sauce on the side. It was just delicious.
As a member of the table from New York mentioned in Kyrie's review, from the moment we entered this restaurant, my four friends & I knew we were in for a treat. Seeing this family owned business run with such incredibly excellent service gave us much confidence in the meal we were about to enjoy. As we sat down, we were met by the owner of the restaurant, who not only gave excellent advice on how to properly enjoy each dish, but was additionally incredibly personable & made our experience unbelievably fun. The food was out of this world. After enjoying the richest, most complex & enjoyable broth ever served with pho, we then rounded out our meal with the most immaculate, soothing iced Vietnamese coffee we had ever tasted. The food & drinks did not only taste delicious, but were additionally good for the soul. To top it all off, the ambiance was beautiful, & it was clear how much love was put into every meal. I truly can not recommend this place enough.
As another member of Kyrie's aforementioned'Table from New York,' I can attest to the quality & artistry of this place. It truly is art. From the moment we stepped in, we saw the Owner's selflessness, charisma, & skill on display. My friends & I lovingly dubbed him'the LeBron James of Pho' very soon after we entered the establishment, & he kept one upping himself the entire meal. It would've been one thing to have been blessed with his kindness & charm, it would've been another to have had a nice meal with friends in a beautiful place with nice ambience, but to top all that off, the food (& drink) was incredible. While we spent the most time interacting with the owner, & a little bit with another waitress, an immense amount of credit must also go to everyone else who works there. They all do a fantastic job. Needless to say, I highly recommend.
Also as per Kyrie, I too am a member from the New York table. We were provived with a very understanding & wonderful time. The owner is a very charming & nice man who provided service out of this world. The food was fantasic with love you could feel in every bite. Would recommend for people far & wide to visit this amazing family-owned restaurant at least once in their life.
As per Kyrie's review, I am member of the table from New York who was seated next to her table. We had such a great time at this restaurant. The owner is incredibly passionate & confident about his cooking, & he has every right to be. It was so delicious, & he was such a pleasure to speak to. He made us feel so welcome. When we return to Montreal, we will be returning. What a great place! Highly recommend!!!
The entrance is kind of sketchy (in the sense that it makes you wonder if you're really entering a restaurant or private property). The food is delicious & the staff is very nice. The service is very good & fast. Very affordable as well. Would absolutely recommend.
