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.
I was very disappointed with my experience. The service was terrible, & the staff's attitude toward customers was rude & dismissive. Being forced to pay despite such poor service felt unreasonable & frustrating.
The food was also quite unseasoned & lacked the authenticity & depth of flavor you would expect from Vietnamese cuisine. Overall, the experience did not live up to expectations, & I wouldn't recommend this place unless they seriously improve both their service & food quality.
Ce restaurant vietnamien est une véritable institution qui respecte parfaitement les standards qu'on attend d'un établissement de cette cuisine. Dès l'entrée, on retrouve les arômes authentiques, les bouillons savoureux & les plats préparés avec soin. La constance de la qualité est remarquable : chaque visite offre la même fraîcheur, le même équilibre de saveurs & un service attentionné. On sent le savoir-faire & la passion derrière chaque assiette. Une adresse fiable, authentique & incontournable pour quiconque aime la cuisine vietnamienne traditionnelle.
When we realized it was cash only, we were about to switch restaurent. The waiter said e-transfer was fine & insisted us to stay.
We ordered & the food came fast. The pho was alright.
When we got to the cashier, she said we don't accept e-transfer & so she directed me back to the waiter. The waiter tells me to talk back to her so it was a lot of back & forth. This whole process took 15 min before they finally let me pay by e-transfer then they tell you aggressively to tip.

I used to come here often. In fact, Pho Bang New York (not in New York) was the one that first taught me to appreciate this Americanized northern Vietnam dish more than three decades ago even though there were many pho places in town. The first day when I revisited Montreal recently, I brought my grown daughter to Pho Bang New York. We returned to this place several times during our short stay.
Their noodles are less bouncy than I prefer. But their meat cuts are superb, & their soup has a different emphasis from what I often get now. After all these years, they still keep their prices low, although they seem to have adjusted portions somewhat understandably due to inflation. Surprisingly, they now have a weekend special with ox tail soup. That soup has hot spices, & they offer a special hot sauce. You don't want to miss it if you visit on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday!
I still remember the weekend evenings when diners quietly - nay, loudly wait to enter near the small doorway at the plain-looking storefront. Today, people do the same. Their interior used be plain, too. But now, they have quite a bit of decors that look loud but do not necessarily go together. General atmosphere here is cozy. Staff speak fluent French & English - many speak Vietnamese, too.
Space is tight in this restaurant. So, expect some inconvenience if you visit during winter. (They now have a coat rack in the back although not many people notice that.) & prepare to pay cash. (How do you suppose they can keep price so low?)
A rare restaurant where taxes are actually included in the prices. It's honest & transparent - I love that. The pho is also great & free tea is served at the table. The prices are quite a bit higher now than that were a few years ago though - gone are the days of getting a meal here for $10. It's more around $15-$20 today.

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.
Delicious pho. In my opinion ,it's the best pho in montreal. Sometime the new workers forget some of the order ,but the experienced workers are amazing . Sadly ,its cash only but its cheap & delicious & has a atm 🏧
