Nous voulions essayer ce restaurant étant donné que nous étions au Dix30 & adorons les mets vietnamiens.
Mon conjoint & moi avons commandé 2 bún (B4) & étions déçus : la sauce poisson était fade, les vermicelles étaient trop cuites (gonflées & molles) & le boeuf ne goûtait pas tant la citronnelle. Pour le prix, nous nous attendions à mieux.
Nous avions seulement mentionné notre déception à la fin du repas car personne n'est venu nous voir pour nous demander si tout allait bien. Selon le serveur, nous serions tombé sur une mauvaise batch.
Notre ami a commandé une soupe phó & le bouillon avait très bon goût.
Beau restaurant avec personnel très gentil par contre!

I mean the soups were not comparable to a pho place (the first time was better but second time it taste more dilluted). The small appetizers was the highlight, small portions though. I put a service at 2 because i waited 1.5 hour for food & was about to leave, my wife was super angry. I get there are alot people coming in at the same time, but we really need better communication from the staff.
You are going to this resteraunt for the atmostphere,decoration & drinks.
J'y suis allée en groupe de 6, le service était rapide efficace. Nous avons mangé les calamars grillés (il n'y avait plus de calamars frits), les frites à l'ail, les crêpes aux fruits de mer, les examens au boeuf, les nouilles croustillantes au poulet grillé, la soupe pho au poulet & celle au tofu. Nous avons presque toutes aimées notre repas sauf les nouilles croustillantes. Les crêpes & les calamars étaient délicieux, ainsi que les ramen au boeuf & la soupe pho. Les serveurs sont accueillants & rapides. Nous avons toutefois trouvé très bruyant le restaurant. J'y retournerais définitivement, mais pas un samedi soir.
Nous sommes allés souper en famille un dimanche soir. En entrées partagées on a mangé razor clams & calmar. Plats principaux : pho, boeuf AA luc lac, vermicelles porc crevettes rouleau impérial & vermicelles poulet crevettes rouleau impérial. Nous avons aussi goûté différents cocktails. Tout était délicieux!!! Les assaisonnements & cuissons parfaites. Excellent service également.

Belle expérience en général & bonne cuisine. Belle sélection de cocktail, les 2 que nous avons pris étaient très bons.
Ma soupe Pho au poulet était goûteuse & la portion généreuse. L'entrée de mini crêpes manquait d'un petit je-ne -sais-quoi mais bon quand même. Mon amie a pris les nouilles croustillantes au fruits de mer & elle a bien aimé. Notre serveur était super. Un autre qui nous servait l'eau était moins attentionné, l'eau nous éclaboussait dessus tellement il faisait ça rapide & il ne m'a jamais apporté les pousses de soja qu'il était supposé m'apportez.
Ambiance bonne, belle déco & super propre, même les toilettes.
En général je recommande.
I asked vietnamese friend at work, polo, to recommend the best pho in montreal & this is the place he said without the slightest hesitation. He also highly recommended Columbia but that's for another conversation lol 😆 ...
Everything about this palace of deliciousness was awesome. From the bathroom design & immaculate cleanliness... a place this clean will not doubt have great food 😋 ...
I wasn't sure to get the one is all the meats plus a short rib OMG or the spicy one. I choose the steak specialty & asked for some samba olek on the side 😉 ... You can see by the photos this is an EXTRA ordinary soup. You must go try it & let me know when you do. We can compare superlatives about it's savouriness & velvety texture ... a must visit.

Restaurant avec belle ambiance, jolie décoration simple & de bon goût. Beau petit menu pour le menu du midi, les soupes Pho sont très bonnes. Avons été très bien accueilli & très bon service.
Un must! Je suis allé souper pour mon anniversaire, pas par premier choix mais parce que nous n'avions pas eu la chance de trouver une table au Taiyo BBQ.
Quelle belle découverte que nous avons fait! Le repas était délicieux, une belle présentation, une bonne portion, un excellent service ( le staff est génial) & l'esthétique du resto est WOW…. Ah oui, c'est plus qu'abordable!!!!
Un dessert boule de crêpe avec crème glace à la vanille à l'intérieur d'un délice inoubliable.
This is an upper scale Vietnamese restaurant & it comes with the price tag. It is not like the ones you find in Chinatown. I've been there twice. The first time I had the Bun Bo Hue with the bone marrow. There is an extra of $12 for the bone marrow which I find is not worth it, but the soup was good. The quality of the ingredients is good & the size is good as well. However, the second time I went, I had the pork chops on rice & they were very thin with a lot of fat. The taste was good though.
There were so many things I wanted to try out but each item was quite expensive, around 20-30$. So, if possible, it would be nice to be in a large group & just order various plates to try out more items in their menu. The food itself was great. The flavours were on point & the toppings were a great addition in flavours. The soup was clear & flavourful which made the noodles taste great in return. I wasn't a big fan of their fried ice cream however. The crust was too thick & it was pretty basic in my opinion. The portion was acceptable. Considering that the Pho Vui was 28$ before tax & tips, the portion was decent but I could have definitely eaten more, especially for 28$ a bowl. The pho is served with a large beef rib though so I guess it's a reasonable price. I would still say it's a bit more on the expensive side though. The service was great as well. Even though the waiters seemed a bit shy, they were quite friendly, patient & professional.
Belle découverte lors d'une sortie de magasinage! Repas midi: Rouleau & soupe tonkinoise au poulet grillé. Tout était excellent. Le rouleau croustillant (pâte au riz) & goûteux. La soupe est savoureuse & remplie de bons légumes, nouilles & poulet. La portion est vraiment généreuse & j'ai rapporté le reste. J'y retournerai sans aucun doute pour essayer d'autres plats au menu & je recommande cet endroit sans aucune hésitation. & que dire du service: Super!
Ordered the platter of a variety of meats with rice paper, pho, & bun bo hue. The soups & sauces are on the sweet side. The variety platter was the best. The bun bo hue was decent, but was just spicy pho & not bun bo hue.
