Pho Bac est décrit comme un spot de pho incontournable à Montréal, avec un bouillon savoureux, des portions généreuses et un service rapide et chaleureux à des prix raisonnables. Les avis saluent une nourriture réconfortante et des options variées, notamment des bowls XL et des plats vietnamiens authentiques, servis dans une ambiance conviviale qui reste populaire malgré une décoration datée. Cependant une odeur persistante rappelant l'urine ou les égouts et des questions d'hygiène reviennent dans plusieurs commentaires et peuvent rendre l'accueil moins agréable. Le service est parfois fluide et sympathique, parfois perçu comme moins attentif lors des périodes de forte affluence. Globalement Pho Bac est souvent mentionné comme l'un des meilleurs pho de la ville par les clients fidèles, même si l'aspect olfactif et l'entretien du lieu restent des points à améliorer.
Family-owned restaurant, right in the heart of Chinatown. We've been eating their pho for years now & it's still excellent (especially their grilled chicken pho).
Although the place looks kinda old, the service makes up in niceness & efficiency. You'll be in for a good meal for a very reasonable price. Recommended!
This is a very solid pho place in Chinatown. Decently priced, good fast service. The pho is amazing & the combos are also great if you want both pho & a meal. Go to spot for comfy pho when it is pretty bad outside!

Phenomenal Pho, the XL is the way to go, delicious broth, a nice clean well serviced restaurant. The service is great, very nice people & a definite place to go in Chinatown!
Pho Bac 97 has always been one of my favorite spots whenever I visit Montreal. It is right in Chinatown, which made it really easy to get to since our hotel was only a few minutes away.
The people here are honestly the best part. The owner, the male staff, & Hannah were so sweet & welcoming. They made us feel at home right away & it's clear they can connect with anyone because they switch so easily between English, French, Vietnamese, Chinese, & probably even more languages. That kind of warmth really makes a difference.
We ordered two Pho Dac Biet XL bowls & one Bi Cuon roll, & with taxes & tip it came to around $50 for the two of us. The food was comforting, flavorful, & authentic. As someone who is part Vietnamese, I really appreciate when a restaurant captures those traditional flavors, & this one absolutely does. At the end they even gave us fortune cookies, which was such a simple but thoughtful little touch.
I'll be honest, there is a strong smell around the bathroom area that can be a bit distracting, maybe from the age of the building or cleaning issues, but it didn't take away from how kindly we were treated.
I still want to give five stars because this place feels special to me & the staff treat you like family. Thank you again for such a lovely experience. Sending love from Candy & family from Toronto. 😋🍜
Un classique du Chinatown ... New york de l'autre côté de la rue est plus fancy mais pas meilleur ..depuis la fermeture de Cali je suis revenu a mes anciens amour .... Un plaisir chaque fois
A small Vietnamese restaurant located right in Chinatown. I ordered the bun bo hue. It is very authentic & tasted perfect. I highly recommended ordering this dish if you are looking for some good quality Vietnamese cuisine.
Ph? B?c restaurant is a great mainstay within Chinatown. Serving variations of Ph? & classic comfort Viet dishes in a humble laid back environment. Staff was friendly & delivered speedy service. I was in & out within less than 20 minutes. Perfect spot for a quick meal. Would visit again!

No frills Vietnamese restaurant in Chinatown with a wide variety viet menu. The spring rolls were fairly good & so was the pho. Interesting that they give you lemon (& not lime) & also no jalapeno.
Definitely my favorite pho place. Service & atmosphere is typical for chinatowns the world over. But the pho was excellent. Broth was flavorful & the pho itself was to die for. The vietnamese coffee was strong & sweet, the best I've had outside of Asia. Definitely my new favorite pho place on mtl.
