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 server had an extremely rude attitude from the beginning. When I was ordering, he kept saying he couldn't understand me in a very impatient way. Even when I pointed directly at the pictures on the menu, he still acted like I was stupid & made me feel very uncomfortable.
When the food arrived, the soup was spilled while serving it. I had to quickly move away to avoid getting burned. Not only was there no apology, but nobody even cleaned the table properly afterward.
The service was honestly terrible & made the whole dining experience unpleasant. I understand language barriers can happen, but basic respect & professionalism should still exist.
The fast food of PHO soups & grilled plates. Food is good & the prices also. The service is fast but not great after. Getting water is a hard ask apparently... the way some respond was insulting as 1 of them never answered back & brought water or anything useful... & yes he speaks English but didn't feel like answering maybe? Or had a bad day? Idk... but not great. Same guy always like that... young one. But the others are fine. So if ya don't care, you served fast & eat cheap with decent food. I do suggest this place.
Absolute horrible service.
They just take cash & their atm didn't provide any change.
After giving all the change we had as tip we got hounded by the waiter who kept saying' we are required to pay him tip' & the only tip he wanted to accept was just cash.
Have been coming here for quite some time , but this horrible rude tone for not having change is insane.
Now I can see why it was empty on a Friday evening. Food is mid but service will ruin your whole night .
Worst customer service EVER. The server put on a fight to get extra tip & had the audacity to make a scene about it. He followed us out of the restaurant by shouting « 15% tip is obligatory » with a very intimidating tone & not letting us go. Initially we couldn't tip more as this horrible of place doesn't accept any sort of banking payment & just has a sketchy ATM with big bills, so we just tipped all our small bills.
NEVER going back there. Food is meh & the service is awful.
The other server had a racist comment towards my friend as well.
TLDR: Pho Bang New York is run by a predatory owner who thinks it's acceptable to psychologically manipulate, intimidate, bully & extort money from a 12 years old child. 0/5, the worst, most morally bankrupt place to ever exist, an absolute disgrace of an establishment
My son saw this restaurant while i was lining up for another restaurant on the opposite side of the street (Lan Zhou Noodles) so he wanted to go in because it was empty & he felt bad for it. BIG MISTAKE. There's a reason why there was no customers inside, because it's terrible & the people owning this place are the worst, morally corrupt people to ever exist, i hope this place fails & the owners get terrible fates that they deserve.
The music is blasting so loud you can't even think straight, the waiter was rude & unprofessional the whole time. food was mid at best, not worth a single cent. the atmosphere alone ruined the appetite.
So when he got to the counter to pay he didn't want to leave a tip because why would you, the service was terrible, & honestly the food isn't even worth the price, it's literal dogwater. Then the cashier looked down at him, & has the audacity to tell say'it's customary to leave a tip, the expected tip is 15%.' in a condescending, rude manner, pressuring a literal child into tipping. He was intimidated by the tall man at the counter & ended up giving him all the change he got, money he wanted to save as pocket money. I only learned about it after getting back home when i was wondering why he seemed so down today.
My son suggested to come in out of pity for your empty restaurant & you repaid him by extorting & intimidating a child into giving you money, scamming him out of his pocket money. that is genuinely disgusting behavior & i hope everyone reading this knows what kind of people are running this place. do NOT go here, especially not with kids.
