The wonton soup was delicious, but the imperial rolls 100% stole the show. Probably some of the best I've ever had!! Highly recommend

Sorry I try to support family business but I cant go back there. Place has a very peculiar smell, the atmosphere is kinda heavy & the smell i cant describe. The food was not great, the chicken soup was missing flavor, the chicken was so dry as if it sat out cooked for a long time. The lady was somewhat friendly but not welcoming. Im sure some ppl like this place but its not for me.

La décoration est simple, de base, bientôt vintage mais la nourriture est très bonne & authentique . Le bouillon de la soupe maison est délicieux.
Grand aquarium avec koï.
Terrasse en été sur la Well piétonne très animée. Pour manger à l'extérieur, on doit impérativement commander & payer à l'intérieur avant.
Station bixi à côté.
Pas de carte de crédit. Cash ou débit/ interac.
BYOW/B. Maltéhops est à un jet de pierre.

My friend & I love the wonton soup here & the Vietnamese iced coffee! The price is fair & the environment is quiet. Best part, the extra large wonton soup is big enough to split between both of us. We each got 10 wonton & some noodles for a total of $19.10 before tax. The ice coffee was $6.60 & super creamy! I would definitely recommend trying this place out.

Je ne comprends pas pourquoi ce restaurant a une note si basse, & autant de mauvais avis.ce soir, j'ai commandé 1 combo inclus soupe maison, rouleau imperial. Poulet Nouilles croustillantes . La Service est bonne. C'est pas comme les reviews ont dites (service très lent..), la bouffe est excellente aussi. J'ai recommandé !!

Stick to pho, other soups, & standard Asian fare for a very enjoyable experience. Dare to order novel dishes & you could be agreeably surprised.

It was crowded, but the service was good. The Pho soup was plentiful & delicious. It's a great place to try new flavors.

Il y avait des années que je n'avais pas mis les pieds dans ce resto que j'ai fréquenté assez souvent lors de son ouverture en 2002 où 2003. Ma récente visite ne m'a pas enchanté. Soupe au boeuf saignant avec un bouillon gras sans saveur. Des morceaux de boeuf trop gros & loin d'être tendres. Il est rare, pour ne pas dire jamais, que je ne termine pas une soupe tonkinoise. De plus, beaucoup trop cher. &, cette soupe doit être servie avec du basilic thaï, pas de la coriandre & qu'on ne vienne pas me dire que le basilic thaï est introuvable à Montréal ces jours-ci. J'arrive de chez Pho Bang New York (où je vais régulièrement depuis 1997) où la soupe, en plus de ne coûter que 16.50$ taxes incluses, est toujours servie avec du basilic thaï & est pas mal plus savoureuse. Le service était bien par contre. Je n'y retournerai malheureusement pas.
