Wow!
A true gem hidden in the West Island. A family owned authentic restaurant with great service & food. Very flavorful! It reminds me of my past trips in Vietnam. Highly recommend!!!
Went for dinner with the family. We ordered cold rolls, spring rolls, soup, noodles & vermicelli with chicken. All very delicious. For dessert we ordered deep fried ice cream & the restaurant treated us to another one. Would definitely recommend this restaurant if you are looking for a good Vietnamese restaurant.

The food is amazing, though different people have different tastes in food, this isn't the'fancy' &'authentic' way of cooking pho, but I think it resembles street food, but with much more quality. Due to inflation, the meat cuts progressively got smaller & thinner, that's not their fault. My family & I have been regularly visiting this restaurant for over 2 years I would say, & this is definitely the best Vietnamese cuisine in Montreal. The services are great, all the waiters & waitresses seemed very nice & experienced, nothing else to comment here. The atmosphere feels like it's missing something, & the restaurant is quite small for this much demand. I can understand the situation but the restaurant closes very often due to lack of staff.
Amazing place. Way better than the chain pho places. Definitely recommend as the service is right on the spot. I usually bring my family & visiting friends here without any fear. Prices are same as everywhere, family run & always fresh ingredients. They get very close to the actual authentic viet experience right here in Montréal. Bon appétit :)
I am not usually the type to write reviews, but considering I have been coming here for years, I felt it necessary. By far one of my favourite places to eat. In the years I have been coming here, the food has always remained the same level of delicious, with no decline. The family are always super friendly & offer great service. The price is super fair for the portions you get, for the L soup I always struggle to finish, & I never leave hungry! On top of being a bring your own wine restaurant, all these qualities are very rare to find in one place. I recommend this place to all my friends, & I will continue to do so. 10/10
So being vietnamese, pho is simply a stable in our culture. Montreal does have quite a bit of competition in terms of pho restaurants. That being said, we bought some pho for dinner expecting just another week night meal being checked off. I was proven wrong within the first slurp of their broth. Flavourful, complex & rich. I devoured my bowl within a few minutes, lifting my head every once in a while, only to attend to my basic need of breathing. This place is your quintessential family-run vietnamese restaurant. A must try if you are in the area, & like vietnamese food. We would be happy to add them as part of our restaurant routine going forward.
My favourite place to eat Viet food in MTL !! If you’re looking to taste a new cuisine, definitely go here (p.s. all menu items are good, but definitely get the Bo La lot 😁) I love recommending this to my friends, clients & family!
