Good, convenient as it's close to metro & Jean-Talon market. Filled up my stomach with beef broth so I was ready for a walk.

#8 & 12 were delicious. Broth for both was milder than I've had in other cities, but was still very good. Portion sizes were generous & the environment was inviting & clean. Would return.

Pho Jean Talon. . by far the BEST Pho & the BEST Dac Biet soups in all of Montreal. . me & my friends have tried to find a better Pho Soup in the city based on popular reviews & reconmendations, & no other place has come close the Pho Jean Talon. .
fresh & generous ingredients/portions. . tastey aromatic broth. . the perfect noodles. .
a peaceful calm setting with great AC in the summer, & they play kitch Asian romance pop on their sound system for a fun setting. .
super friendly kind staff will take good care of you here xo

Food -
I've tried both their pho filet mignon & pho dac biet, do yourself favor & upgrade to the filet mignon-worth it! The meat is much more tender, the broth is pretty standard, not bad but nothing groundbreaking either. Tastes a bit like fancy comfort food :D
Their vietnamese coffee is also quite run of the mill as well-not a bad thing, just an observation.

Service -
The workers there are all pleasant, friendly & attentive! I learned that the current ownership only started around 5 years ago. Can't speak to the quality of this place prior to that.

Atmosphere -
Long basement unit. Nothing outstanding, but not run down either :)

I had the grilled chicken pho. They load it up way more than the phos in Vancouver- all kinds of veggies, generous meat portion. The broth doesn't have the taste of star anise (though that might be a particularity of pho in my neighbourhood) but it was quite good. Easy does it with their chili oil- it is quite spicy!!

The filet mignon pho was good, the broth had flavour, however the grilled chicken broth lacked flavour. Overall good spot but a bit pricey for pho.

Best broth I've had in years. Decent value. Great music imo. 0 complaints.

What a gem! The filet mignon pho was incredible. Amazing broth! Had it with a delicious, fresh mango juice. Excellent service as well!
Bonus: Early 2000s RnB playlist was hitting. Will definitely be back soon as I can :)

Used to be my favorite spot while I was growing up. My parents would take us there every week untill I had my own kids & we moved out of the area.
Went back this week to have some pho, probably won't visit again.
The menu was very limited & most of my childhood items no longer exists (understandable) Ordered a largebowl.of dac biet for $17, what came to my table was a small bowl when compared to other pho spots around town. Broth was good but I left half full while paying full price.
I made a constructive criticism to the waiter & told him I wished a large bowl would be a normal large bowl not for a 5 year old's stomach. he told the boss in the back. All I heard from the kitchen was'he should of ordered an extra large' 🤦 if I knew they offered an extra large I would of but it's not on the menu. I would hate to see the price on an extra large when that tiny bowl costed me $17 before tax with one paper thin slice of meat of each kind (I ordered the dac biet) which is usually a classic item to indicate the skill & quality of the restaurant. If their signature bowl is that stingy everything else is not worth a 2nd visit for me. my wife wasn't too impressed with the portion & taste of her dishes either....

Their pho was delicious! &, their broth-to-noodles ration is impressive. Love that they don't shy away from giving lots of noodles. & our server was friendly & approachable.
