Pho Anni is repeatedly praised for generous portions and good value, with bowls described as hearty and satisfying, and the grilled plates and sides like spring rolls and shrimp tempura earning steady compliments. The broth is a common highlight for warmth and balance, though a number of reviews note that it can feel a bit bland or lacking depth on some visits and that consistency can vary, especially when the kitchen is busy. Service is often described as friendly, attentive, and efficient, but a few reviews mention slow or uneven service and long waits, sometimes tied to being short staffed. The ambiance is frequently called cozy, clean, and welcoming, with a pleasant vibe and a family run feel that many return to for the reliable lunch specials and generous meat portions. Overall, Pho Anni is regarded as a solid Montreal option for pho and Vietnamese favorites, offering affordable prices, a wide menu, and flavors that satisfy a craving while leaving some days with room for improvement in broth depth and front of house consistency.
Food is amazing! Usually get combo A with a fried banana, always hits! The staff is so kind & friendly, they make it feel like home every time we visit. Shoutout Anni, Paul, Eric & the whole staff, love the all! 5 Stars ⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?
I've been back here a few times now, & honestly, it's become one of my go-to spots in Montréal when the pho craving hits. Each visit has its own little story - here's the breakdown:
👨?🍳 Food Highlights:
• Shrimp tempura = crispy perfection 🦐🔥.
• Spring rolls + dumplings = crunchy, flavorful, & totally addictive 🥟🥢.
• Pho = not the absolute best broth in the city, but solid & generous with the meat 🍲🐂. Would've loved a squeeze of lime for brightness 🍋, but hey - house rules.
• Shrimp dish (Letter H) - fresh, tasty, & my fave from one of my visits.
• Combo deals (pho + imperial roll, or spring roll + beef) are great value 💸👌.
🏠 Ambiance:
• Clean, peaceful, & plenty of seating. Comfortably spaced, not crammed in.
• Even when it's quiet (like Monday afternoons), the vibe is chill & relaxing - perfect for catching up with friends.
🤝 Service:
• Usually friendly & helpful, especially with bigger groups (we were 8 people midweek, & everyone left happy ✨).
• That said, service can be a little inconsistent - once I had to wait to be seated even though it was nearly empty, & ended up grabbing my own menu. Not the end of the world, but a small detail they could polish.
🚗 Practical Notes:
• Prices? Affordable & fair - especially the lunch combos 🥢💵.
• Parking? Classic Montréal headache 🅿?🤦, so plan ahead.

👉 Verdict: A solid pho spot with tasty sides, friendly staff, & wallet-friendly combos. Not Michelin-level broth, but you'll leave full, happy, & without breaking the bank. For me, it's a repeat place - & that says a lot. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Everything was great, loved the sauces & the shrimp tempura. Spring rolls & dumplings were excellent as well. Would've liked some lime juice in my pho but I can respect the house rules. Great value, especially with the lunch combo. Extra points for the friendly service. Keep in mind that like everywhere else in Montréal, the parking situation was a bit of a hassle.
Amazing Pho. The ambiance is very peaceful, there is lots of seating & seating is comfortable. Very nice service, highly recommend for an authentic Pho. We had the combo A chicken spring roll & beouf. & also tried the shrimp tempura. Also very affordable prices!
Tout était parfait, en passant du service à la nourriture. Très abordable. L'ambiance est décontracter. Je recommande la soupe tonkinoise. Le bouillon est excellent. J'ai pris le combo C, le ban mi au tofu & c'était excellent
Great flavor. Simple, nice presentation. Friendly staff. I had a combo meal; the freshly fried imperial roll was flavorful & perfectly prepared, the shrimp & beef of the bun vermicelli were nicely grilled, & the mini pho was a highlight. The meal exceeded our expectations!

I'm OBSESSED with pho Anni! I've been going there at least once a week since November, & I think that will be my normal routine for the foreseeable future!
The food & service are amazing. I usually get the combo A, which is chicken or beef pho with a imperial roll, & it's honestly the best pho I've had in Montreal. I prefer pho on the saltier side, so this hits the spot!
The imperial rolls are very crunchy, & the service is very fast!
Had a craving for pho last night & this place did not disappoint. Savoury broth & large portions. We both had combos with imperial & spring rolls which were both delicious. Lucky to have this gem in NDG. Will go back & try something else as many great options on the menu. Prices very reasonable & staff very friendly!
3 of us shared combo f & combo g. We had fried chicken dumplings & shrimp spring rolls as well. All the food was delicious & portions are huge! The pho soup (mini was part of combo) was the best we've ever had & next visit I'm ordering a full sized one! Finished off with the most yummy Vietnamese iced coffee! Friendly service as well.

Stumbled upon this place during a trip. Atmosphere was just typical, nothing fancy . Clean enough. I ordered lunch special combo pho with imperial roll. The roll was good, nice & crispy & good filling. The dipping sauce that came with it was just ok. Pho: meat was tender, taste of it overall was good. The only thing is the broth is a bit oily for what I'm used to. The shrimp crispy noodle with veggie was good. If you're hungry for some quick & good food, not care about ambiance , then this could be something of your liking.
I hit up Pho Anni on Upper Lachine Road today & it totally hit the spot! The combo was a steal, coming with an imperial roll that was ridiculously good. I was too busy stuffing my face to take a pic, but here's a snap of the amazing soup Pho Anni - eating dinner at Pho Anni.
The Combo A special with Imperial roll & Beef Pho was amazing & such great price! Large swrving with delicious flavourful broth & generous serving of meat. Lovely staff & quick service.
I went here last week with my classmate because it's near our school. I ordered Combo F & an ice cream (matcha flavor). The food is really good & they served it in big portion. The price is very cheap. & the staff there, they're amazing & very attentive, they're nice! 😻 always smiling ☺️ For sure I'll come back here again !!!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻
