Thaison 1997 reviews describe a modest dining room and order counter but emphasize friendly staff and food that is delicious and affordable, with standout items such as made to order Bahn Mi, crispy pork belly, and other BBQ meats. A family gathering mentioned whole crispy pig and boxes of duck salad Vietnamese style, with everyone enjoying the crispy pork and the fresh salad. Prices are praised as very good and portions are generous, and the seafood soup is highlighted as excellent while the crispy pork is noted as the restaurant's specialty. The peking duck is repeatedly praised for freshness and value compared with other places, and longtime diners say the place remains reliable for authentic flavors despite not having the most upscale decor. Some reviews acknowledge a recent dip in quality with smaller portions and certain dishes feeling off, leading a few to consider trying alternatives. Overall the notes describe a hidden gem with authentic flavors, friendly service, and generous servings that make it worth a visit despite variability.

Les plats sont bien préparés, cuisine typique vietnamien. Les personnels sont très sympathiques & réactifs. Ambiance chaleureuse avec une la décoration vintage des restaurants au Vietnam.

Mì V?t Ti?m (Vietnamese Duck Noodles Soup) : slippery noodles, fall-off-the-bone duck legs, & a dark broth.
This is one of the few restaurants in Montreal where you can eat this dish.
