HÀ brings Vietnam's lively Bia Hoi tradition of sipping fresh beer on busy street corners to Montreal. Laos-born Chef Ross and Vietnamese late icon Chef Hong Hà Nguyen's menu is inspired by their favourite street foods and meant to pair with the bar's diverse selection of wines and fresh beers.
Diners describe Restaurant Hà as a lively, upscale fusion spot with warm, attentive service and a buzzy yet intimate vibe. The menu earns praise for inventive, flavorful dishes such as the fried broccoli, Mahi Mahi crudo, Pad Thai, bao buns, crab chips, and comforting coconut tom yum salmon, with many noting that tasting menus or sharing plates make for a satisfying experience. A recurring highlight is the fried broccoli, often called a must-try, along with well crafted cocktails and the hidden Nhau Bar downstairs that adds a special ambience. Several reviews commend the staff for friendly, helpful service, though a few mention occasional slower pacing or longer waits during busy times. Noise from the underground club can be disruptive for conversation on busier nights, and vegan guests sometimes find limited tofu options or cross contamination concerns in Pad Thai. Prices and portions are seen as reasonable by many, though some feel portions could be larger for the cost. Overall, Restaurant Hà emerges as a standout choice for celebrations or dates, with a memorable atmosphere, but it is wise to book ahead and note dietary preferences.

Great service, great atmosphere - the pad thai & bao buns & cocktails were all delicious. Highly recommend for a date or girls night dinner - make a reservation!
J'ai toujours une experience impeccable au Hà. Je ne suis jamais déçue & j'y retourne encore & encore ! La nourriture est à la fois élaborée & savoureuse, mais sans prétention. Les portions sont généreuses & l'ambiance est tamisée & festive. Le personnel est accueillant & compétent - ils connaissent parfaitement leur menu & savent faire des recommandations en fonction de vos envies / restrictions.
Our dining experience at Hà was truly amazing. We were delighted from start to finish. From the warm welcome at the door, to the delicious food & the attentive service. The ambience was very nice; well lit, spacious & not loud so we could talk without having to shout. We chose the tasting menu & every single dish was delicious & expertly prepared. The portions were enough for the two of us to share & be full at the end of the meal. Our server was wonderful; friendly but gave us enough space throughout the evening. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to eat well & have a great night out.
Excellent resto, plats originaux & service impeccable. La burrata thai est une belle découverte pleine de saveurs. Belle terrasse en plus, je recommande.

Super belle expérience. Du début à la
Fin, Franco, l'un des proprio nous a accueilli à la porte avec un beau sourire. Nous avons été aidé avec le menu & les cocktails. Vraiment de bon choix. Je recommande les brocolis en entrée & le Saumon en main course, c'était incroyablement BON & super ambiance. Merci
Excellent restaurant autant pour l'ambiance que pour la nourriture ! Je recommande fortement le repas principal assiette de saumon & sauce noix de coco
