Pho Tay Ho earns praise for a broth that is flavorful and light, with the chicken pho and the chicken with giblets often singled out as exceptional, while the beef pho offers a heavier, satisfying option for those craving a richer profile. The menu is described as small but carefully curated, prioritizing fresh, authentic ingredients and generous portions at friendly prices. Diners often call it the best pho in town or comparable to the best found in Vietnam, and the place is noted for fast, reliable service and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. Some reviews caution that broth quality can vary and meat portions may fall short on certain visits, and a few say prices can be high for the value. Overall, Pho Tay Ho is viewed as a reliable, high quality option for Vietnamese staples in a compact, approachable setting.
This was not a place I will come back to for pho. The onion slices were too thick so I could not really eat them, & the raw meat was tough. I also had a bit of inedible chicken in my spring roll. Just not for me.
Vraiment une excellente soupe tonkinoise autant pour le bouillon que la viande. Je recommande vivement la Dac Biet Pho Tay Ho avec boeuf saignant, flanc de boeuf & saucisse de boeuf. Je trouve rien de négatif à dire sur cette soupe. Très bonne & goûteuse.
Peaceful place with kind & quick service in a side street of the Mile End. The pho dac biet was a large portion, & while super delicious, the broth tasted more of chicken than a traditional & authentic pho broth. Generous amounts of meat & herbs elevated the dish & kept it fresh & light. Pork & shrimp fresh rolls were herby & homemade, the perfect texture of the wrap & noodles indicating it was freshly wrapped. I would come back!

Très bon bouillon. Portion fine-herbes généreuse. Un des meilleurs Pho en ville. Par contre, bun cha ca là vong, le Mam Tom est sucré. Service rapide mais un peu glacial...
