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 appears in these reviews as a warm, family run spot known for authentic Northern Vietnamese pho with broth that simmers for days, homemade condiments, and fresh ingredients, and it offers vegetarian options with a broth prepared separately from meat stock; diners describe a rich, clean, deeply flavorful broth, generous portions, and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Service is consistently noted as friendly and attentive, with explanations on how to enjoy each dish and occasional personalized recommendations, though busy evenings can bring slower service and seating challenges. The menu extends beyond pho to include items like bun cha, vermicelli dishes, spring rolls, crispy wings, and Vietnamese coffee, all described as well made and reasonably priced, with many reviews praising the authenticity and northern style as distinct from standard pho. The overall impression emphasizes care, tradition, and hospitality, with many diners stating they would return or recommend to friends; occasional comments about kitchen speed or balance of garnishes are outweighed by praise for the broth, the flavors, and the genuine warmth of the staff.
Quaint spot. I feel they could add a bit more meat for the pho but it was tasty & otherwise fair amount for the price. Enjoyed the pickled garlic & peppers!

The bún bò Hu? & ph? bò are excellent-authentic, flavorful, & clearly made by someone who knows these dishes well. The service exceeded our expectations; the staff made us feel truly welcome. We highly recommend this restaurant!
À l'entrée du resto, nous n'avons pas du tout l'impression que nous vivrons cette expérience car le resto est dans un sous-sol… Cependant, c'est tout le contraire! Petit détail en entrant, 3 gros déshumidificateurs fonctionnent (le bruit est très discret) pour s'assurer que l'endroit ne soit pas humide. Ensuite, Ngoc nous accueille avec un grand sourire sincère qui nous donne envie de revenir. Enfin, la nourriture est vraiment excellente & typiquement vietnamienne! La viande était tendre! Les saveurs étaient exquises & tout en profondeur.
Bref, un très beau moment passé dans ce resto charmant!!! Merci beaucoup!
Le service était excellent & les soupes étaient délicieuses & authentiques. Les prix sont raisonnables considérant l'emplacement. La version végane est savoureuse.
This is a genuine Vietnamese place, the food is excellent! I'll come again when I'm in Montreal- it's worth the detour
It is somewhat difficult to find as sign is small & just next to hotel at below ground level
Délicieuse pho végétarien & café glacé viet. Le personnel est très gentil & accueillant & les commandes à emporter sont rapides & efficaces. Je recommande fortement
Hidden gem! So lucky i found this place. It tastes just like in Vietnam. Best service, perfect portion. This is the place i will come to when i'm craving for real Vietnamese food!
Me & my wife passing by, we discovered this wonderful restaurant. The ambience very calming, service is good & food is the main highlight unlike regular Pho that you go most of the time. They serve the meal in classy dishes with unique egg roll. They also provide us special egg tiny soup which to take as a shot which was very interesting. Also the washroom is extremely clean. I would recommend this Pho if want to try something unique Pho.
Taste of Vietnam in Montreal, especially if you are looking for legitimate Broken Rice, this place has it, other places serve you jasmine rice or regular rice, which isn't Vietnamese version of Com Tam.
Also, they serve different broths for each type of protein such as Beef Pho, Chicken Pho, or Vegetables Pho. Usually one broth for all in other places, so kudos to the dedication of serving the Pho broths distinctively here!
We came in a big group so there was a bit of wait time for the food due to large orders, so that's totally normal.
Their BBH also amazing, hit the spot! You have extra sate & fried chilies flakes on the side for added kick!
