We’re proud to say we serve only the most authentic Vietnamese dishes! Discover the vibrant flavors of Vietnam at Pho Ly Quoc Su your gateway to authentic Vietnamese dining. Immerse yourself in the rich culinary traditions of Vietnam as we bring you a tantalizing blend of fresh ingredients, bold spices, and time-honored recipes passed down through generations.
Pho Ly Quoc Su draws mixed but largely positive feedback for its authentic Vietnamese Pho and lively, attractive setting. Reviewers repeatedly praise the broth as rich and flavorful and the portions as generous, with chicken pho, beef pho and vermicelli dishes earning praise for taste and authenticity. The interior is described as clean, bright, and cozy with a vibrant decor and a pleasant terrace, making it a popular spot for both locals and visitors. Service is noted as friendly and attentive in many visits, though several diners report occasions of slower service, water not being refilled, or missteps during meals. Some guests mention higher prices and occasional inconsistency compared with other pho places, while others feel the quality justifies the cost and location. A number of reviewers highlight halal options and careful preparation to accommodate dietary needs, and many appreciate the freshness of ingredients and the traditional flavors that recall Hanoi and other Vietnamese kitchens. A few reviews describe less favorable experiences, citing bland broth or clumpy noodles, but these are outweighed by praise for the overall experience and the variety of menu choices, including banh mi and other Vietnamese dishes.
I went with a group of friends & settled with this place because they could accommodate a group of 12. The atmosphere was very pleasant & they had a cosy decor.
Unfortunately, the pho was very bland. The soup felt like it was diluted & was lukewarm. The noodles were in a clump & were overcooked. The meat was chewy & sparingly given. Overall, it's probably the worst pho I've ever had. Most of my friends also agreed the pho was bland compared to other small pho businesses. At least, the spring rolls were delicious. I really hope they improve their pho recipe...
J'y suis arrêtée pour souper & j'ai pris l'assiette de nouilles croustillantes au poulet & légumes. L'assiette était tellement généreuse, que j'en ai même rapporté la moitié à la maison (le bouillon n'étaitpas trèsgouteux, mais mais l'ensemble était très bien. Beau restaurant esthétiquement, il y a un magnifique arbre de fleurs roses majestueux à l'entrée. La serveuse, une française je crois, était gentille mais très timide. J'ai été très bien servie. Pour le stationnement, c'était pas compliqué puisque ce n'est pas une rue passante & il y avait quelques parcomètres disponibles (la borne est toutefois au coin Sainte-Catherine.

Un bon resto pour le Pho 🍜!
Le soupe est très authentique!
On a goûté le banh mi chao aussi! Il faut le manger tout chaud chaud chaud!! 😋
Le view est cool, mais peut-être plus accessible aux transports en commun, que en voiture !
Excellent choix de restaurant. La soupe tonkinoise au boeuf était parfaite. De la profondeur du bouillon aux boeuf lui même.
Possibilité de choisir notre combinaison de viandes dans la soupe parmi 4 choix. Nous pouvons profiter des lieux sur la terrasse extérieure devant le restaurant. J'ai eu droit à un service attentionné où on m'a rapporté de l'eau à deux reprises sans que j'aie à le demander.
Plusieurs belles options au menu.
Je recommande ce restaurant chaleureusement.
Si vous étiez déjà au Vietnam, vous devriez connaître ce nom. C'est une chaîne de soupe pho très connue au Vietnam. J'ai retrouvé exactement le même goût de bonne soupe Pho de Ha Noi. Le plat Bun Cha Ha Noi est aussi délicieux 😋. Les serveurs sont souriants & efficaces. L'endroit est propre & calme. La décoraration est très sympa. Nous avons passé une superbe soirée, & nous nous sommes
regalé. Je recommande vivement ce resto. On va sûrement revenir demain soir pour goûter d'autres plats.

Super yummy! Had the beef & shrimp spring rolls & a Bun bo hue (spicy beef soup). Felt like the food was made with love ❤? Nice spot to go eat when in downtown! P
La soupe « Bun bo hue » était excellente. Resto chaleureux & beau décor. Notre serveur Nam est tellement gentil. Merci Nam ❤?❤?. Je vous recommande fortement.
Definitely not authentic Pho & overpriced for the quality. I ordered a grilled chicken Pho soup & was greatly disappointed. The noodles were really overcooked. By the end of my meal they were too soggy to eat. The grilled chicken was fine & the broth lacked flavour. I won't be returning :(
I came across Pho Ly Quoc Su in one of my walks. I had never had Vietnamese food before, but I was hungry & curious, & I'm so glad I entered this restaurant. I visited there twice & both times the staff were so incredibly polite (the most polite staff in MTL I would say). The food tasted absolutely amazing & reminded me of the food we have in Brazil (although different, shares some similarities). I became a fan. The two times I went there I had the lunch menu with soup & beef & white rice (unfortunately I don't remember the correct dish name) but it was so good & nutritive also. During trips we tend to not be able to eat so healthy, but in Pho Ly I truly felt like I was eating appropriately & at home. So so good. I totally recommend & plan to come back before the end of my stay in MTL.
Soup was not particulary tasty, i had lunch & it was a bit of a deception. It is also expensive for pho or banh mi. I was offered good service tho & it has a good location downtown.
the bun bo hue has become a problem in my life. I cannot get enough of this soup. One of the best in the city. If you like spicy & delicious come on down!
