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.
The portions are hefty & the prices are fair. But the service was so slow, maybe because they were short staffed, who knows. The food was so oily too, the pho had a layer of oil on the top & lacked flavor. The vermicelli was oozing in oil & the lemongrass in the chicken was so roughly cut that it was scratching my throat, so they gave alot of protein.
Really wholesome Vietnamese food at very reasonable prices! The banh Mi was fantastic, & the pad thai was surprisingly tasty. Bonus that it was open on a public holiday
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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fast & courteous service. The food is delicious. We had an extra large Pho & their lunch special with a small soup, drink & a bahn-mi. Very reasonably priced. I will be back & I highly recommend you try this place❤?
A really good place to get phò, the serving is nice & the price is quite good. I would not say it's the best broth I've ever had, but it is really good. Note that their vegetarian phò is actually really vegetarian, broth & all. I'll have to go back to try the other items on the menu next time. The service is also excellent, very friendly & attentive.
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!
This new Vietnamese joint is a blessing. Portions are larger than expected for its prices; $15 lunch special with pho & large imperial roll is unbeatable in Montreal. They make their own cakes, carrot one was one of the best I've ever had. I'm a regular now.

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!
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.
I just had pho here for the first time, & I'm already hooked! The broth is super flavorful & truly authentic, & the taste is amazing. Honestly, the quality of the food is so good, the prices should be higher. The service was also top-notch-everyone was so friendly & welcoming. This is definitely going to be my go-to pho spot from now on! Highly recommend it!
