Soooo good! One of the best places for Pho in Montreal!

Solid lunch menu during the week at $20! Highly recommend!

I really enjoyed the pho here; the flavor was excellent & the portions were generous. However, the place gets super packed & the tables are squeezed so close together that you lose all privacy. It feels like you're sitting with the group next to you.

I got the pho number 7(rare beef & flank) & it tasted like nothing & was very oily. The flank was just half fat & the noodles were very overcooked. Would not recommend.

I ordered 3 meals & pho to take back to the hotel, which was over 2 hours away. When we finally arrived & opened the food, we realized there were no spoons or forks included at all, which was really inconvenient ,what made it even more frustrating was that I was traveling with my 3 young children, who were very hungry after the long trip.

Le bouillon de la soupe pho est un bouillon de poulet trop gras, ce n'est absolument pas un bouillon pho.
Nous avons été très déçues.

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.

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
