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.
While wandering around Phillips Square in downtown Montreal, we stumbled upon a Vietnamese restaurant. The bò né was amazing, & we'll definitely come back on our next trip to Montreal.
The food was good but not great - not as fresh as other Pho places in the area. However, the atmosphere was certainly better (more cozy) than most pho places in the city altogether. The service was very friendly & efficient enough to squeeze a meal over a lunch break.
Overall, I would visit again with a group due to the atmosphere & menu variety, but if I was alone or looking only for Pho, it would not be my first choice in the area. I expected better since it is somewhat more pricey than places with better pho.
Today is my first time trying Vietnamese food, & it did not disappoint! The chicken pho is a delicious way to warm up on a cold day. The broth was very rich & the chicken has a nice grilled flavour. I ordered takeout & my order was ready in about 20 minutes.
I ordered a lunch special menu. It's a pho with 2 imperial rolls.
You can choose up to 3 kind of meat for the pho.
I chose well done, beef ball & tendon.
The well done beef was tender & delicious, but beef balls & tendon were not my taste.
I liked imperial rolls.
Very sincere & polite attitude with a professional resolution after a few mistakes. I really appreciate your courtesy. The taste is great, & the rare beef is amazingly fresh!

Great place. Highly recommended for Muslims. They know the halal styles. They know what items aren't halal & will look out for you. & they give bean sprouts & basil with the (no peppers) with the pho so you know it's official.
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.
