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.
Nous avons passé un très bon moment dans ce restaurant. Les plats étaient excellents. La serveuse nous à judicieusement conseillé au moment de la commande car pour certains plats les quantités sont petites & il vaut mieux prévoir un petit supplément riz ou nouilles.
1er fois à ce resto & nous y retournerons sûrement. Merci Ross d'être allé à l'émission Les Chefs c'est grâce à cela que nous avons pu connaître votre resto

We had a lovely experience at Hà! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great & our server Arthur made our experience fantastic. I will definitely be recommending to all my friends in Montreal!
Overrated - ok I guess for large loud group (there were plenty) but very'see & be seen' & food not making it in a city with an abundance of great eats…
De l'accueil à l'addition, ce fut impeccable.
Le service était vraiment à la hauteur, tout le personnel était souriant, agréable, avenant & aux petits soins.
Les plats étaient succulents & que dire des cocktails ! ✨

Nous sommes allés souper avec des collègues de travail. Super service très sympathique. Nous avons pu traîner tranquillement après le repas. Tout le monde a adoré son plat. Les portions ne sont pas gigantesques mais largement suffisantes.
Je fréquente plusieurs restaurants & le HÀ & tout est simplement incroyable à tout les niveaux, le tout avec une facture très raisonnable. Ces devenu notre top 5.
