Review Summary

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.

Most bland pho I've ever had. The broth had no food flavor.

Honestly the best pho i've ever had & one of the best meals I've ever had. The broth was so delicious & the veggies were fresh & crunchy which I love. Me & my friend have tried the following: Vegetarian imperial rolls (please note it comes with 2, not 3 like said in the description): absolutely delicious fresh, comes with a delicious sauce Vegetarian Pho: my friend said it was delicious! She loved the fried tofu. Well done beef Pho: broth was crazy good, the beef was delicious & tender (but the meat was very fatty, which might be the norm for this dish but i personally don't like fatty meat) Grilled chicken Pho: same delicious broth, the chicken was amazing & the veggies were fresh. This dish was so amazing & I will be coming back many times for it! The only downside was the service. We were only about 4 people in the restaurant & yet the waiter took forever to get us the bill & never came to check up on us. It could've been better but the food it so worth it that it doesn't matter. The food came out quick aswell! All in all, I will be returning very often - this might be one of my favourite restaurants!!!

It was Santa Claus parade on Saturday & the streets were packed with people everywhere in downtown Montreal. Pho Ly Quac Su just opened its doors just after noon time & we were the first few that got in. Already all the seats on the ground floor were taken. Luckily, there were lots of empty seating places on the first floor. The restaurant is reasonably clean & tidy. We ordered a BYOP - Build your own pho with rare beef & BYOV - Build your own vermicelli with grilled shrimps. Service was friendly & fast with the dishes of good size portion. Taste of the pho was at par with other pho restaurants we have been. It could have been hotter. The vermicelli came on a bed of iceberg lettuce & all fresh. The shrimps were grilled to perfection with a nice smoked flavour. Prices are reasonable, portions are good & taste is excellent.

An excellent Vietnamese restaurant situated downtown serving authentic pho & other dishes to warm up particularly in the winter. I also have to specially commend the restaurant for having exceptionally helpful & friendly service, as well as a pretty decor. Dishes are served hot & quickly. Pop in if you need to warm up over a bowl of pho!

Très bonne nourriture! Service très gentil, attentionné & impeccable. Ma copine a pris une Pho; elle était chaude & aromatique tout en ayant sa propre saveur & en se distinguant d'autres places servant ce met, ce qui est bien si jamais vous voulez changer de vos commandes usuelles. Pour ma part, j'ai pris un Byov au boeuf sur vermicelles. C'était vraiment délicieux. J'aurais simplement souhaité que le plat soit plus généreux. Rouleaux de printemps croquant & frais; on sent la qualité. Endroit neuf & propre. Ambiance calme & sympa. Je recommande en somme.

The taste is not special compared to the price. The soup is just normal. I ordered rare beef for topping, but it came out cooked. It is said that it is cooked the moment it is served. If you're looking for a delicious pho restaurant, why not look elsewhere? Also, the meat quality was not good.

Excellent restaurant pour un dîner entre collègue de travail. Le service était rapide & le menu midi était abordable (incluant la soupe & le plat). Le personnel était courtois & très attentionnée. On se sentait à la maison en plein centre-ville de Montréal. Enfin, on était six & on n'a pas eu à faire de réservation. Nous sommes arrivée vers 11h30, un jeudi.

J'ai adoré ma visite, notre serveur était très gentil. La nourriture était très bonne & l'ambiance était très chaleureuse. Je pense que le pho avait un prix normal vu la localisation & le décor. Je recommande le restaurant à n'importe qui qui souhaite expérimenter un restaurant vietnamien chaleureux.

This place is amazing!! I would come eat here everyday if I could. The chicken pho was perfect for a chilly day especially hungover. We had the best customer service & food came out so fast. This was the best customer service I’ve ever received. I highly recommended going here.
