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 in town & staying in the neighborhood, I stumbled upon this place. So glad that I did! As soon as I walked in, the vibes were there! I was immediately acknowledged & sat for lunch. The staff were so attentive & nice!
I ordered the Vietnamese grilled chicken pho & a Pinot Grigio. THE FOOD…DELICIOUS! It was healthy & exactly what I was craving. & for the price point, you can't beat it.
The decor of the spot is so cute & trendy as well. I will definitely be back! 😁

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.
The team was very attentive & knowledgeable. They answered questions & made recommendations when asked. The food was delicious & arrived exactly as described. Would go here again.
I ordered a Bun Bo Hue & A Pho BYOB & a viet coffee & its tasted amazing , The broth was clean & yummy. But somethings drive me to give a review on Google is The waiter was really nice when I ordered a coffee he lemme try it first to adjust the coffee for me which is super nice & enthusiasm. Highly recommended

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 :(
Beautiful decor including a cherry blossom tree inside.. beautiful wood tables.. attentive waitstaff. One of the few places that will actually use basil garnish & give you raw beef slices, lime is fresh. Feel like all the foodstuff they use is good quality. Food is decent. I haven't yet found a perfect pho place in Montreal. (Speaking as a Vancouverite)
The hubby & I had dinner here & it was a nice quaint place with a warm atmosphere. The service was good & our server was friendly. Pho was mild flavored & good if you don't like all the preservatives etc in your food. Authentic pho & would come back again.
