Les convives personnalisent leurs bols avec des pousses de soja, du basilic thaï, des quartiers de lime et des piments pour équilibrer le profil savoureux du bouillon.

Au-delà des soupes emblématiques, la carte propose des assiettes de riz et diverses entrées reflétant les techniques culinaires vietnamiennes essentielles.

Pho Bang New York est largement considéré comme une véritable institution du quartier chinois de Montréal, régulièrement salué pour sa cuisine vietnamienne authentique, fraîche et savoureuse, notamment pour son vaste choix de soupes phô et d'assiettes grillées. De nombreux clients apprécient la générosité des portions et les prix abordables, faisant souvent de cet établissement une destination de choix pour une cuisine réconfortante. Bien que le service soit fréquemment décrit comme rapide et efficace, les expériences peuvent varier, certains clients rapportant des interactions brusques ou des politiques rigides concernant le partage des repas et le pourboire. Les visiteurs doivent garder à l'esprit que le restaurant n'accepte que l'argent comptant et qu'il est souvent bondé, ce qui nécessite parfois de la patience pour profiter d'une expérience culinaire animée et sans prétention.
The food is good except for the pho, as the broth is just very'meh.' Not much flavor. I much prefer the broth from I Am Pho which is fragrant & aromatic. Other items on the menu are really good & great value for the money. Service is quick. This is by no means a fine dining restaurant but that's not what I'm after so I'm fine with it.

One of the Best Ph? Experiences in Montreal Chinatown
Pho Bang New York never disappoints. I ordered the ph? ??c bi?t (large), & it was outstanding from the first sip to the last bite.
The broth is crystal clear, deeply aromatic, & perfectly balanced-rich without being heavy. The bowl was generously loaded with a variety of tender beef cuts, silky rice noodles, & topped with fresh onions, cilantro, & green onions. Everything tasted fresh, authentic, & prepared with care. The large size is truly satisfying & great value for the price.
Served piping hot with a fresh plate of basil & bean sprouts, the ph? arrived quickly despite the restaurant being busy. Service was efficient & professional, exactly what you want when you're craving real Vietnamese comfort food.
If you're in Montreal's Chinatown & want authentic, no-frills, high-quality ph?, this is the place. The ph? ??c bi?t l?n here is a must-order.
Highly recommended.

All gluten free rice noodles! The broth was alright, decent meat serving size. They only take debit, or cash (USD or CAD). Slight unfavorable exchange rate. For a place this popular I would expect them to set up a Credit card system.
I've been to Pho Bang New York a couple of times for lunch, & it's always a satisfying stop in Chinatown.
The pho comes out quickly, the broth is flavourful, & the portions are generous enough to keep you full for the rest of the afternoon. Service is efficient even when the restaurant is busy, & the menu has plenty of classic options to choose from. A reliable place for a warm, comforting bowl of pho in the heart of Montreal's Chinatown.
Definitely over hyped. The staff are nice though. Broth is very light & not much flavor. The place is packed & you're sitting really close to people you don't know.
I had an outstanding meal at this pho restaurant! The broth was unbelievably rich & flavorful-comforting, aromatic, & clearly made with care. The noodles were perfectly cooked, & the portions of meat were generous & tender. Every bite tasted fresh & authentic.
Yesterday, after a 4+ hour event at Palais des Congrès, my two daughters & I - third-time visitors - headed to this restaurant for a quick bite. We've ordered large pho bowls before & couldn't finish them. I'd eaten late lunch, wasn't very hungry, & hate wasting food. So this time: one large bowl, one small bowl, & fresh spring rolls to share.
The older male server immediately asked:
'Are you sharing?'
I thought he was offering an extra empty bowl (standard practice elsewhere), so I said'Yes.'
His response?
'NO SHARING ALLOWED. Everyone must order their own bowl of pho.'
Excuse me? I said I'd eat the spring rolls & help my kids if they couldn't finish. My daughters - who were excited minutes earlier - instantly went quiet, faces dark. I asked:
'Do you still want to eat here?'
Silence. I grabbed my bag & we walked out.
We are PAYING CUSTOMERS. I decide how we eat. Sharing with my own children is not a crime. This isn't a prison cafeteria - it's a restaurant. In Canada. In 2025.
We crossed the street to Henan Huimian - warm service, delicious food, zero attitude. My money is spent happily there.
I told my older daughter:
'We pay for food & service. If it feels wrong, we leave. Power isn't given - it's taken.'
She asked,'Would they say this to white customers?'
I said,'No.' & she knew it was true.
This isn't about pho. It's about respect.
This isn't about portion control. It's about control.
To the owner:
If you don't want families, don't want sharing, don't want kindness - just say you only serve solo diners who pay cash & worship your overpriced broth. Close the doors. The 90s called - they want their outdated policies back.
To everyone else:
You've seen the comments.
You've felt the cold stares.
You've paid $18 for a bowl & left angry.
Stop going.
Your wallet is your vote.
We're done enabling bad service disguised as'policy.'
Walked in, held up fingers for how many in our party, & we were seated right away. Tables are two-tops pushed together depending on group size-efficient, no-nonsense setup.
The beef in the pho was excellent-tender, well-cooked-but the broth was forgettable. Not bad, just didn't stand out. My son's chicken & rice plate was clean & filling, but so neutral it could've come from half a dozen different places. No standout seasoning, no distinct flavor.
Cash only, but they did take U.S. dollars & even gave a small discount-so that was a pleasant surprise.
Fast service, decent prices, no big complaints-but nothing special either. If you're nearby & hungry, it'll do. But if you're chasing top-tier pho in Montréal, this isn't the destination.
