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.
Pho Anni was good, though not the best broth I've had. It was still enjoyable but lacked a bit of depth. They're very generous with their meat portions, can't complain about that at all. Service was simple & straightforward.

Not the best beef pho in town, but very generous with portions & meat. (Their large pho is like XL of the other Montreal pho restaurants) Great service, clean restaurant.
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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
One of the best pho restaurants in Montreal, offering top-notch service & excellent hospitality. The portions are generous, & the flavor is outstanding. After eating, you won't feel thirsty, which means, unlike other places, they don't use MSG.
Just discovered this hidden gem; delicious home cooked nourishing, YUM!!! Generous portions, very affordable. & I got to re-experience the party in my mouth the following day with leftovers for lunch💕
It is run by a mom & 2 sisters Anni & Thy. Thy is a pastry chef, every week (around Tues, Wednesday?) she comes up with a new dessert of the week. She made a fabulous looking carrot cake for Valentine's Day that I was so excited to try..it must have been delicious because after a flavor explosion of
2. g?i cu?n tôm gà rau (shrimp & chicken spring rolls),
3. G?i khô Bò (papaya salad with beef)
4. tôm l?n b?t (shrimp tempura)
12.Ph? Bò Tái rau, (rare beef noodle soup with veggies) 😝🤪💕, I left the room for 2 minutes, come back to find that my 6year old & hubby had devoured the entire cake & I didn't get to taste🙃 Now I must go back every week until Thy decides to make that carrot cake again😅 I look forward to tasting all the other sweet creations in between! Thank you for nourishing us Ph? Anni!!

Me & a friend came across this neighbourhood restaurant for the first time & we discovered they hand down the best soup & menus I've ever had! The broth is rich & flavourful, & the service is always friendly. Pho Anni is now become my go-to spot for Vietnamese cuisine. The portions are generous, the prices are reasonable, & the quality is exceptional. Pho Anni exceeded my expectations . The atmosphere is cozy, the staff is attentive, & the food is simply delicious. I'll be back again & again! I'd love to see more dessert options besides the delicious banana rolls I had so far, but overall, I'm a big fan from now on.
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.
Went to try this new restaurant yesterday. It is a very friendly place. Service was fast & efficient. The food is delicious. My kids had the pho soup & the broth was delicious my mom had a vermicelli & lemon grass chicken which was very tasty & I had a beef & chicken on rice. All dishes are generous in their portion. I have eaten at a few Vietnamese restaurants in NDG & for years Pho 88 on Decarie was a strong bench mark for excellence we now have a new king of the neighbourhood.
The Banh Mi's were made with fresh bread baked by the owner. We took the Xiu Mai & the chicken to try them as it was our first time there. The Xiu Mai is very flavorful! Loved it. We would have liked a bit more marinated carrots/radish but overall it was great. & very generous with the coriander which is our fav! For the chicken banh mi, I usually prefer eating savory chicken so this one I didn't like it as much, but anyone who likes sweeter chicken, this is for you! We liked our experience & will def go back to try out the other items & looking forward to the new menu items coming in fall 🍂
