We arrived with high expectations given other reviews but left disappointed. There was almost nothing on the menu that did not contain meat. The server, who tried to be accommodating, said the kitchen would prepare a vegetarian meal but it ended up being based on chicken broth. It was tasteless, watery pho so it didn't really matter. I'm very surprised that this place has the rating it does -- what a disappointment.

They accomodated the retirement party of our colleague, we are about 50 people but they tried their best to organize how they would serve us. The owner was very kind, servers are patient. Food is 10/10, very tasty, big serving. & the ambiance is great, compared to other Vietnamese restaurant they really made an effort to make their place beautiful!

Ordered the vegan pho along with chicken fried rice & spring rolls. While the spring rolls & fried rice tasted good, the vegan pho could have been more flavoured. It was simple with not much seasoning. It was a winter evening so anything hot tasted great but there could have been more spicy / tangy flavours added. Maybe do a simple pho & one spicier version. Great ambience though & very close to grand central so we legit walked in -15 degrees. Love that cherry blossom tree!

Went here on our last night in Montreal & one of best meals we had. Food was very fresh. Had both types of rolls for apps, the jasmine rice with steak & a pho bowl (broth on side) devoured it all. Also had the hot coffee & we're hooked. So tasty. If I lived here, I'd be a regular. Service a bit slow but they were very friendly & we kinda wanted to relax. Atmosphere of the restaurant was super cozy too & clean.

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 :(
