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.
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!
Honestly one of my favorite meals I've ever had in Montreal, & I love to eat out! Everything was cooked to the nines. I had a spicy chicken with lemongrass & it was so tender & tasty flavor combinations were amazing & Chef Anni is very obvious as kind as she is a great chef. Go here!!!
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.
We were surprised by the number of 5 star reviews, so we went to try it. Here is another 5 star review x)
Service was very good. Friendly staff.
Pho very delicious with thick meat slices (although I found some of them a bit fat, but my partner liked it).
We took a dessert of the day: the Pandan cake, it was also very much delicious.
Pros: Nice family owned business with kind hearted people who run the show. The ambiance of the restaurant is lovely & you can bring your own wine. The service is very friendly & warm. Overall delicious food (but the pho is mediocre, hit or miss depending on the day).
Cons: The service however is very slow & staggered. For example, it takes time to even get a menu after being seated, getting a server to take our order is long, we get our water after we begin our meals, & we get the pho accoutrements when we are nearly finished eating our meals. The pho is hit or miss. Sometimes the broth is perfect, most times I've been it hasn't been cooked long enough & has a slightly watery taste. It lacks consistency. The bun bo hue lacks lemongrass flavor & spice.
The restaurant has a lot going for them, but they need to step up their game with the front of house service.
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.
So happy this place opened in the neighborhood! A true gem. Food is wonderful, staff is super friendly. Everything is great, we keep coming back to try more on the menu.

humami vietnamien, portion généreuse, personnel courtois,endroit propre & très convivial. Je vous le recommande & je ne suis pas payé pour vous dire ça.L'essayer c'est l'adopter.
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!
