Delicious pho. Our server was very sweet & attentive. They provide complementary tea & fortune cookies. We took a sandwich to go. Great value overall! Also, the old reviews saying they only accept cash are no longer correct. I paid using credit card with no problem.

On our flight back to California from Quebec City, we had a long layover in Montréal & decided to explore downtown. We walked by this shop on the way back to the bus stop & decided to come in to get bánh mi & drinks to go. The owner was super nice & welcoming-it made our day in Montréal so much more enjoyable. The sandwich was pretty good-wish we bought an extra one to munch on at the airport. Thank you so much!

Ce soir, j' ai mangé Cristal Pho Spécial , c' était délicieux, un sandwich Banh Mi ( notre ami Nana) au boeuf avec un smoothie aux 🥑🥑 avocat étaient super Bons. Un sandwich jambon Banh Mi coûte seulement $ 6,49 + TX..... vraiment pas cher & tellement délicieux. Excellent service & les propriétaires sont très Gentils & généreux. C' est à recommander & ça vaut le déplacement.

We ordered the special Bahn mo sandwich for 6.50 & for the price, it was good. I know they premade it but the bun was toasty , & the ham & veggies tasted really good.
Also ordered tarp smoothie but it was watery but still tasty.
