My family & I were drawn to this restaurant when we walked past it & the aroma coming from it practically dragged us in there, & unsurprisingly, the food here did NOT disappoint. The pho & the crispy noodles were the best I've ever tried & for an amazing price. If I ever come by to montreal again, I will no doubt stop by Pho Bac again, it was truly the highlight of my trip!

Authentic pho 100%. I'm from the west coast, visited in 2019, had a bowl that made me want to come back for round two. Finally got a chance to visit in Oct 2024. Unlike most places, the broth here is hearty & not overly salty, the meat is tender, & the proportions are extremely generous. An XL bowl size is a good amount of food to share with someone. Hai, one of the people who work there, actually remembered me from five years ago. We had a good chat before we left. I'm writing this review from Vancouver because I'm hungry & thinking about Pho Bac. I can't wait to go back. This is the place for pho. It's just incredible.

We chose Pho Bac on a whim after a quick search while visiting Montreal, & wow, we were not disappointed. The food was amazing, the service was great & helpful. Would definitely recommend it to anyone that wants a great Pho, that's full of flavour & very delicious.

If you can ignore the odd smell inside the restaurant, food is good!

Restaurant with around 30 tables on bld. St Laurent since 27 years. The little details count to maintain a loyal & satisfied clientele in these crisis times, knowing that I have tried ALL the tonkinoise restaurants in St Laurent (in the surroundings of the quartier chinois) & this is my prefered spot. There is also a big variety of other Vietnamese dishes. This is one of the rare places that includes tea, which is more than enough for one person. It can be repeated as needed. But also each table has its own napkin dispenser, without being stingy & having to ask for another one every time, as is the habit everywhere in these days of economic restrictions. & since the specialty is tonkinoise & my favorite dish (a medium beef is $16), it is abundant, tasty & well seasoned bouillon. With large portions of meat, dressings, according to specialty, in a pleasant, bright & clean place. By now, the parking spots are very rare, for the street reparations. I have always been lucky because the waiters have been diligents, helpful & available. For all this, I return every time I visit Old Montreal... !

Pas satisfait du tout: -mauvais service: service en anglais uniquement, je rappelle que le service en frais est obligatoire - service sans politesse - bo bun servi froid & avec de la viande sèche & mal cuite. Très déçu!

Large Filling Portions, Poor Service Going to restaurants & trying new foods is a way to immerse myself in new cultures, & after years of being urged by a friend to try out Pho, I caved in & went to Pho Bac. Upon arrival, we sat quickly &, within minutes, were given some starters. Our server for the day from the beginning of our time there till the end seemed annoyed or disinterested, & when I asked for some information regarding some menu items, he seemed to be annoyed & just nodded to anything we asked for. Aside from the service, the food was okay, & the 5 sauce & spring roll combo were lovely, however. The main let a lot to be desired, the sauces provided were decent but it didn't feelvlike there wa a tonnof flavour. I appreciate the large portions & competitive pricing of the menu options, which is rare in this economy.

Combo 3 - a great deal. Also get the pho. Saw the hosts serving customers right up until closing. Quick service.

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.

If you get takeout they give you a reusable branded bag that they charge 50 cents for. Just fyi.
