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.
la bouffe était délicieuse & les employés très gentils, mais le service était très lent. Nous avons essayé de commander rapidement avant que plus de clients arrivent, mais ça la pris 2h avant que notre repas principal soit prêt. & lorsque nous sommes arrivées le serveur n'a pas vu notre table & ça la pris un temps pour qu'il vienne nous servir.

Bon service par les serveurs & le suiteur, belle ambiance sur la terasse. Par contre le menu est très réduit dans les choix. Nous aurions voulu un peu plus de choix mais nous comprenons avec le covid que vous avez réduit vos choix. J'y retournerai sans hésiter !
The personal was really nice, we have arrived earlier than the hour of our reservation & there was no problem at all, the music wasn't too loud, the food & drinks were excellent & the service was impeccable. I'll come back at this place for sure.
