If you are a carnivore you WILL love this, but if you are Bun Bo Hue fans, you won't.... 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.

Good Vietnamese restaurant located in chinatown. Food tastes amazing! We tried few dishes & really love it. The grilled beef on vermicelli & the spring rolls are really good. Feel like eating in Vietnam. The atmosphere is ok. The service is ok. Weve been there few times. But they only accept cash which u should be prepared. But if u dont there is an atm machine.

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

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.

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.
