I tried the chicken pho & it was so yummy. All the different flours were mixed together & the taste was amazing. They used fresh ingredients & a special spice to make it unique. Came hot from the kitchen & the staff was so friendly they took our special considerations & requests & made a special dish just for us.

Ils ont mis ma salade dans un sac de plastique & elle avait trois branches de fines herbes qui n'ont même pas été coupées. Le poulet était brûlé, le boeuf sentait bizarre. Horrible.

Lorsque je viens en vacances à Montréal, mon fils habite à côté de ce restaurant & c'est avec un immense plaisir que je vais sur place commander mon plat préféré que je viens rechercher 10 mn après. & c'est tjrs aussi bon, mais il y'a encore plus de nourriture qu'avant, & le tout pour 20 $, qualité au top !
Ma femme prend tjrs les bouillons, elle est ravie aussi & quantité énorme. Je reviendrai l'année prochaine.

hands down best chicken pho in montreal!

The very best Chicken PHO in town. The one with Chiken & Giblets is simply amazing. As good as the best ones found in Vietnam.

Be aware that Chicken Pho is a delicacy. The broth has to be flavorful but also super light & Chicken has to be tasty (mostly the broth has to be made with chicken bones/carcasses, the chicken meat is pour in just to be cooked).

Because Chicken Pho is far less in demand & it is so difficult to make it right, than even in Vietnam, only few Pho restaurants has Chicken Pho on their menu.

For more standard taste & heavier flavors, Beef Pho is the way to go.

Their Vietnamese beef tartare is also best in town. It is tasty, fresh & smooth. I only took it to share the dish around a table of 3-4

The menu is not large. You won't have much choice, but each dish is tasty & fresh !

People want more & more choices, but that tendency has a strong & wrong impact on quality. To have fresh meal dishes, it would request a lot of manpower, fresh raw products ready & waste (none fresh items discarded).

But with price spiking all over the place, price has to be increase dramatically or products has to be lower quality, or even frozen (frozen products reduce waste, cooking time & cooking staff).

At Pho Tay Ho, fresh & flavorful ingredients are highly valued, so they keep their menu relatively tiny.

All in all, it's a nice small place which deliver high quality, fresh & authentic dishes at the friendly price. Don't have to take the plane to Vietnam for an amazing Chicken Pho, just go there.

Update : I have add some pictures
