Reviews describe Pho Anh Vu as a standout in downtown Montreal with generous portions, a rich, aromatic broth, and pho that many consider among the best in the city; the menu features beef rib pho, bun bo Hue, imperial rolls, grilled chicken and other staples, all praised for quality and flavor; the decor and atmosphere are noted as stylish and welcoming, and service is usually fast and friendly, though a few experiences mention uneven attention during busy times; prices run on the higher side for pho but the size and quality justify the cost, and regulars say the place is a reliable go-to for a satisfying casual meal; overall the vibe is comforting and vibrant, with sauces and pickled additions on the table that enhance the dishes.
This is my favourite Pho that I go very often, I never check the bill before, but today, I found that they charged me wrongly lol, I ordered a large Pho, but they charged me extra large. Not much difference but not feel comfortable. However, I like the taste & Dining environment. I may go back again & check the bill each time.
Very yummy spot! The service was extremely quick & the food was very good. The portions are huge & rice noodles don't taste good as leftovers so I would recommend buying a small, seeing as I couldn't finish it. The place was very pretty.

The service was very bad. They never listen to customers, & the attitude when taking orders was careless & dismissive.
I repeatedly asked them please do not add onions, yet the bowl they brought out had an excessive amount of onions.
I also clearly noticed that the young male server was giving hostile looks at the customer sitting across from my table just because that customer had to repeat his request a few times. The server even stood behind him & kept staring at him in an aggressive way.
Overall, it was a truly terrible experience
I have ordered Uber many times, but they have never followed my requests properly, even though I clearly noted the things I am allergic to or cannot eat.
There were even ingredients in the dish that I really like, but they were left out. If those ingredients were out of stock, they should have noted it so customers could understand.
I am extremely disappointed with the way Pho Anh Vu Pho operates.
The food was excellent! Served piping hot & FULL bowls. The staff was also courteous & responsive. Lastly the ambiance is exceptional. Everyone in our group enjoyed the food.
Everything was good: the meat, the fried thing (i don't remember what it was), the'skewer', the salad, the noodles. Servers were polite even if the restaurant was about to close. Definitely recommend it!
Food was good, nice portions but wasn't amazing either. The place itself is cute, nicely decorated & better than a lot of other pho places. It needed a little music to go with the vibe.
I would go back, & I definitely recommend if you are downtown & want some pho or viet type of food.
Great pho very tasty & not too heavy or greasy.
There's a great variety of food on the menu, so everyone can find something they enjoy.
Fresh flavors, comforting dishes, & a consistently good experience.
Definitely a place we'll come back to!
I ordered from here twice, the food was very good but now that they raised the prices 3$ on an already expensive meal (20$ to 23$) I'm just going to pass. That might be an ok price to some people, but not for me.
