Review Summary

Pho Bac in Chinatown draws praise for comforting, flavorful pho and generous portions, with quick, friendly service that many say makes the meal feel welcoming. The broth and menu items are often described as authentic and satisfying, and prices are generally considered reasonable for the area. However, several reviews mention a persistent unpleasant odor around the dining area and bathrooms that can detract from the experience, and some describe the space as old and in need of a refresh. Occasional inconsistencies are noted, including beef that is chewy or dishes lacking expected ingredients, and a few complaints about service or price increases. Despite these issues, Pho Bac remains a go-to spot for many visitors to Montreal’s Chinatown who want classic Vietnamese comfort food delivered fast and at a good value. The staff are repeatedly praised for warmth and efficiency, and the tea service at the table is a welcome touch. Overall, the reviews depict a strong, reliable option for pho with caveats about upkeep and occasional variability in quality.

Usually the pho & the Vietnamese food is not bad here & usually I would give 3 stars... But unfortunately I found a fly on my Pho noodles in the soup! Therefore I must remove 1 star. In addition, they still ask me to pay despite I showed them the insect in my food! In addition, the price has gone up & the quantity & quality of the food is the same or worse as before, so I will stop coming.

Les employés étaient très accueillant. On est venue commander pour 2 soupes pour emporter une moyenne & une x large. On a eu 2 de la même grosseur & vraiment pas beaucoup de viande....pour 45$ c'était que des nouilles...

J'étais un habitué de ce resto qui était à proximité de mon travail où on y sert des soupes pho. Malheureusement la qualité de la nourriture a diminué. Le bouilon est moins parfumé & trop salé.

La soupe tokinoisse cet súper delicioso yo he ido a la mayoría de restaurantes asiáticos pero realmente 5 estrellas

Excellente soupe tonkinoise, vraiment. Mais comme plusieurs l'ont mentionné, il y a une forte odeur d'urine dans le restaurant, & ça rend très difficile de bien apprécier la nourriture. Sans cette odeur nauséabonde, ce serait assurément un 5 étoiles. Excellent rapport qualité-prix pour la nourriture.

Pho Bac has great & delicious menu with a great front desk who are extremely cheerful & happy. Prices are quite good for Pho & soup tastes quite authentic with loads of meat. Great experience.

First time been here & first time trying North Pho noodle. I was not sure if it was the exact taste of North Pho, so gave it a try, the soup was not salted, not too much flavor compared to other Pho I tried. It was ok. Fast service. I ordered a Special Pho (M size) & 1 combo of beef pho + 1 spring roll. I paid cash & was charged without tax, of course I tipped. The price was pretty not bad. Would recommend.

Food was fantastic. Very authentic. They had a few employees who spike English so no issue with communication. Cost with tip was CAD 69 for two pho bowls, a shrimp vermicelli bowl & a pork vermicelli bowl. They have gluten free choices but it's mostly limited to pho or the soup options.

I ate many Pho & Vietnamese food of many different stores. but this store , Pho tasted plain. The portion of beef compared with other store didn't good amount. Too much soup & lack of toppings: noodles, meat.

Nous avons pris la soupe Phô au boeuf & les côtelettes de porc. Le bouillon était excellent, les portions de viande très généreuses. En somme la nourriture super! La seule perte de point est pour le service. L'équipe n'est pas particulièrement sympathique. Mais si vous voulez manger de la bonne soupe Phô a bas prix c'est la place!

This is one of my favorite places to eat ever! I come almost every time I go to yhe city. The pho soup is so good, it's crazy. I always get the number 7, I think it's the best thing on yhe menu. If you've never had this soup, your life is incomplete. You NEED to go here & get some. Fairly cheap, massive bowls, & fast service. Even if you don't love the food, yoy can't complain about anything else, this place is literally perfect. They also serve you tea the second you sit down & it's really good. I love it so much.
