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.

Such a fun, cozy spot. Loved the service & the educational tips on how to correctly eat all the food.
Got the beef Pho with the egg on the side, highly recommend the egg. Unique experience & really fun to eat! Seems a bit odd at first but definitely worth it.
Prices are good, resteraunt is clean & cozy & would definitely return.
I can't sleep because I am craving their shrimp spring rolls. Heavenly food!!! Their pho was also one of the best I've had in Montreal & I was happy to discover their broth was vegetarian. For such good quality the food was very affordable.

Absolutely loved this place! The pho was incredible - rich broth, fresh tender meat, & lots of delicious homemade pickled veggies. The spicy chili oil was a real treat too. Our server was so kind & even explained how to properly enjoy pho, which made the experience even better. Cozy, clean, & full of heart - highly recommend
Love this place! The Special Pho is huge & delicious. Very good broth. The pork chop is also great too. Nice flavor & very nice texturally, with a good sear & meat/fat ratio. We also loved their crispy chicken wings & shrimp spring rolls! The crispy chicken wings had an awesome breading (similar to Korean fried chicken) & the toasted peanuts gave it an extra crunch. The service here was also amazing. The woman serving the floor & tending to the back was a superstar. She was extremely helpful in explaining all the different dishes & helping us choose the right ones for us. This restaurant is worth your time! I would definitely come here again the next time I am in Montréal.
Edit: I had came back two days later & had the Bún bò Hu?. I highly recommend! It's the same consistency as the Special Pho broth but it has a much richer, deeper, meatier flavor. This would be good for you if you like to put a lot of condiments/flavors in your pho, as it is slightly spicier. I also had the Chè Thanh Nhi?t dessert & it was soooo good! I love the textures of the jellies & mung beans. It was a lovely end to my meal. I then got shrimp spring rolls to go just in case I had a midnight craving. I know they were good from last time.
Welcoming, homey, & extremely delicious food. I've had many bowls of pho having been raised in Vancouver, but this bowl of pho was the cleanest broth I've ever tasted. They make their meatballs in house - delicious! The owner & his kids (?) are super friendly & also English-speaking! Will be back next time I'm in town. ☺? thanks for a great first meal in Montreal!
The pho here is AMAZING! BEST PHO I have had so far. The soup was so deep in flavor & it was perfect after eating a heavy meal for several days. Very comforting. 🥰
My husband got the bon bo hue which was good too! We also had a shrimp papaya salad (there are other options for meat). The owner was super nice & explained how to eat to have the best experience. We asked how the pho tastes so good & he said that the soup takes 3 DAYS to prepare.🤯 He definitely works hard & I hope this palce gets more recognition.
The only thing was that the seats on the corners were tilted because the restaurant is half underground & the flooring can get uneven. However, the store is very cute. I have to recommend it because the food & the owner were so nice.
