Came here on a Friday where this dish is only on 3 days--Friday, Sat & Sun. The place was hopping busy. The entire time I was there & when I left people kept coming. By comparison the Pho Bac across the street which has slightly higher rating on Google was mostly empty when I passed by. Anyway I've eaten plenty of Bun Bo Hue including some in Hue, Central Vietnam, the version here is absolutely nothing like what I had before. Typically this dish commonly found ingredients are pigs blood & knuckle, tendon sometimes, special spices etc. Here's it's just sliced beef brisket, oxtails & beef shanks (& lots & lots of it). Don't get me wrong the aroma, flavor & taste were excellent but it more resembles like a spicier pho dac biet than BBH. Though I initially really enjoyed my dish which at 17+CAD was very good value but towards the end I felt like the guy from BeardMeats Food trying to finish an enormous dish. This is the only time I didn't finish the meat in ANY Vietnamese restaurants. As tender as the shanks were, it's just too much. See photo.
Many people told me that good pho can be found here & I do like it. For a small sized woman small is good but not super filling, beef came with generous amount. The salt lemonade is pretty refreshing but for personal taste I wished it come with more lemon. One thing to notice is it's a cash money restaurant, if you are a person like me who only bring a 5 dollar cash in wallet, there is a atm inside the restaurant but with extra transaction fee.
When pho didn't double in price, you know there's still hope. The soup has good meat content but they reduced the variety of cuts in it, it's also a lighter taste. Service is meh, we didn't get tea, had to ask thrice for rice. But good bang for you buck.
My son had a craving for Pho so we got a recommendation from our walking tour guide. I was skeptical but hey, why not? Pleasantly surprised the food was better than expected. My party had Pho & I had the Bún Bò Huế. Both were good & hit the spot. Surprisingly they provided sufficient amounts of meat but a little on the low side of noodles. This is the opposite in the US where they provide little meat & lots of noodles. Overall, highly recommend this place if you want a quick fix of Pho & other Vietnamese dishes. Prices are reasonable as well.
Endroit très populaire, ils offrent un service rapide & courtois. Leur popularité est assurément dû à la qualité de la nourriture, la soupe pho est très goûteuse & le boeuf est de très bonne qualitée! Les prix y sont aussi compétitifs pour un restaurant au centre-ville
Best pho around downtown Montreal. They have Bun Bo Hue on the weekends.
Very good pho soup, I either have raw beef or grilled chicken with vegetables. Their grilled meats with either rice or noodles are also good
Excellent resto pour bien manger des mets vietnamiens, personnels très polis & avènement avec les clients place très très propre beaucoup de monde service rapide.je suis retourné le 7 mai 2024 toujours aussi bon pour la soupe Pho & les rouleaux printemps & frits allez y bien manger des mets extraordinaires . Pierre & Dominique .
Meilleurs restaurants du Chinatown, tout est excellent. Rouleau & Pho à essayer absolument
Un classique pour les pho dans le Quartier Chinois. Les portions sont généreuses & les aliments sont frais. On ne va pas dans ce restaurant pour y rester & parler pendant des heures. Le roulement est incroyable. Vous serez servi en moins de 10 minutes.
Very good Pho at Montreal in Chinatown. The service is very fast & the food is delicious.
Besides the inconvenience of accepting only cash, this is one of the best pho. Out of all the pho restaurants, I came back to this place the most. The the broth & the beef are simply amazing. A hot bowl of delicious soup during winter is the best remedy against the Montreal cold. Recently I realised that no.33 vermicelle with grilled beef is exactly what I was looking for when its not cold enough for pho. The beef is deliciously grilled, you can taste the marinate running deep into the beef. Perfect for summer.
You dont go there for service or atmosphere, but i garantee you that the pho is amazing. Tasty, conforting, yummy, goody, mhmmmhmmmmm. Plus, its not expensive at all! All the conditions together to make this place worth for a goooooood pho souppp
Always busy due to many customers. Always the best Pho in MTL. Always, they did not give me any disappointment. If you want Pho, I powefully recommend here. I will be here in near future again. :)
Very average pho. Perhaps their other dishes are better, but their chicken pho was not great. I did notice beef pho was very popular here, so if you do come here, I suggest trying the beef.
Has the #50 spicy beef weekend special. Was not spicy, & in fact kinda tasteless. I've had plain pho at other places which had more seasoning. The bone meat was tasty though. The minced pork spring rolls had a grainy texture to them & were kinda flavorless, but okay when drenched in the sauce. Service was friendly, though being forced to use cash exclusively is always inconvenient. Simple decor.
