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.

Soirée & repas exquis ! Bravo à votre équipe.
Beautiful restaurant, well decorated & amazing food. Special mention to the service who offered a glass of prosecco for our wedding anniversary. Such a cool vibe
I recommend this establishment without a shadow of a doubt. Everything was perfect! From the warm welcome, impeccable service, & fresh & tasty food, a pure moment of pleasure. Friendly atmosphere, & music at the right volume, just enough to perceive that there is but not too much. The decor is simple but chic. Lemongrass chicken is a sensory experience in itself.

Food was excellent, service was slow & I feel like they just forgot about us. Waitress finished her shift but didn't even come to check to see if we wanted something else. Otherwise staff is very friendly & restaurant has a nice vibe
