Thé Perlé Banh Mi is repeatedly praised for a warm, welcoming atmosphere and attentive, friendly service from a family run team; the banh mi are described as delicious with juicy meat, crisp bread, and balanced fillings, and the chicken and pork options are especially popular. Bubble tea and other drinks receive enthusiastic notes for flavor and good value. Reviewers highlight generous portions, reasonable prices, and a cozy, versatile space that works for solo diners or groups, with some mentioning improvements after moving to a bigger, more comfortable location. The menu also shines with fresh ingredients, flavorful sauces, and vegetarian options, and many say they will return to try more items.
I've been going here for a few years now & can safely say it's one of my go to lunch places any time of the year & I am lucky enough to be within a 10 min walking distance I personally love the pork bahn mi but have tried the chicken bahnmi too & both are very good. I always request extra spicy & she definitely delivers. Someone mentioned in a review that they thought there were too many pickled radishes & carrots proportionately but if you have it as spicy as I do those are very welcomed when your mouth is on fire I also love their bubble teas in summer. My regular order is passionfruit but if you want something a little less sweet the dragonfruit & mango is also good. The service is pretty fast. I have never had to wait more than maybe 10-15 mins on a BUSY day & then when it's quieter it's obviously faster. The main lady behind the counter is THE MOST friendly person. She's super sweet & an absolute boss. I've seen her on a very busy day when the store was packed (Saint Denis had an event on) serving each customer with the biggest smile, managing the kitchen & conversing in 3 different languages without being the tiniest bit flustered. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is in the area that wants something fast at a reasonable price & lovely service

We had a beef & a pork banh mi, a Vietnamese coffee & a bubble tea & everything was super delicious. We even got a free bonne annee tart au pomme (equally tasty). What a gem of a place.
All I can say is that this place deserves every part of the rating I give it. The owners were some of the sweetest people I had met in Montreal, & were extremely welcoming & friendly. She had recommendations for me each time I visited (3 times within 4 days). I don't speak any French, & I felt very comfortable speaking English there. The atmosphere of their shop was also amazing. You can tell they spent a lot of time & effort on making it cozy & warm inside. I don't have pictures, but there are neon lights, old wine bottle decorations, & more. Oh right, the food was incredible too. I got two different kinds of fruit tea, & one brown sugar boba. I also tried the pork bahn mi, as well as the beef. 10/10, I recommend stopping here for a cold drink & a warm sandwich.
The woman serving me today was so kind & helped me so much (lowkey I always fail at ordering correctly the first time)! Delicious boba & great service! Thank you!!!

One of the best boba spots I've got the chance to find!! Their brown sugar is homemade & it was so delicious!! The staff is so kind & welcoming as well. I'm definitely going back
Famille avec un excellent sens commercial, j'ai fait tombé mon bubble tea par maladresse à l'entrée de la boutique, & ils m'en ont gentiment refait un.
