Oddly enough, I've never had Vietnamese food in Montreal. I've been meaning to give Pho Tay Ho a try so I met up with E on an early Wednesday evening and we were able to snag a seat on the terrasse right out front.
Service is spotty as once we ordered and got our food, they never came back to check on us. I like that they have a sheet for you to mark your order. Keep it because you'll need it to pay after. Note: you can pay with debit.
- Bo tai chanh (#3) ($10.00) - interestingly, this rare beef salad comes with shrimp chips. Not the best that I've had; I would have liked a little more acidity and brightness to it.
- Pho ga, long ga, tai (#15) ($10.00 large) - mix of gizzard, liver, heart of chicken and rare beef. Rarely order chicken pho but the broth was very clean tasting and lemongrass was at the forefront.
- Pho tom voi rau (#20) ($10.00 large) - shrimp and vegetables. Broth was a little more sweeter but the shrimp was tasty (you only get four though).
Cheap, tasty and filling; can't really ask for anything else.
Very famous pho restaurant which sells chicken pho. Not many places have chicken pho. The soup is light but flavorful. There were more protein than carbs in D's soup which is rare. D likes it :D However, the chicken is crunchy. If you don't have that in mind before you try it, it might a surprise. In D&G's case, it is a not so positive surprise :/
In general, it is worth a try but not D&G's favorite pho place.
Pho has always been my fave to eat. I have been to a lot of different Pho restaurants. This one definitely ranks high on my list. Their soup is thick and rich, and they give you a lot of meat. I recommend to ask them to switch the thick regular noodle to the Moon if you order the soup ones. I love the combination.
Simply the best pho in Montreal. From all my friends and family recommendations, this is the place for authentic pho. Been there several times already and it is always good. One thing I dislike is their slow service.
Delicieux et vraiment abordable, le porc bbq la
Soupe tonkinoise au boeuf saignant et les rouleaux de printemps sont nos choix gagnants à cette adresse. La belle salade d'herbes qui accompagne les plats est d'une exquise fraicheure.
Loved the atmosphere...the vibe...and the food was so fresh and delicious...started with the spring roll 😍😍😍😍 so good. Both of us had the beef with vegetables pho and the vegetables were nicely cooked...can't wait to come back
This place is sofa king good.
First of all, a must have is their beef tartare. The beef is perfectly marinade, tangy and wonderfully balanced with pickled onions and carrots, with loaded with toasted peanuts and hints of cumin and fish sauce. The shrimp chips add the final touches as a vessel for the perfect bite.
All the grilled meats are delicious with very very large portions.
Good taste restaurant!and big potion of the dishes! The environment of the restaurant is good, quiet and clean. Nice service. Around 12~15$/person.
Great pho!!. One of the better pho places in Montreal in my opinion. It seemed authentic and surprisingly, the service was pretty fast despite the resto being completely full. Also, there were a lot of Vietnamese people there, so this was another reinforcement for good quality food.
Great pho, generous on meat. Really enjoyed the pho here. Had the #20 Pho Bo Vien (Bo Vien = Meatballs) and they were very generous with the amount of meat they put in comparison to the pho I'm used to in Ottawa. Broth is just right, and noodles are a little chewy - a little something different but nothing entirely bothersome. They are big on big portions - there is no such thing as a size small. (Sizes are M, L, and XL) Medium is the smallest, but it's a manageable portion. Food comes ready within ~10 minutes.
Incredible. Generous portions, amazing chicken. Staff are wonderful. The only thing I would say is the noodles were a bit over cooked and the prices are a bit more expensive than other places. Not complaining though! Really great, would come back
Quick service. Prices appear to have gone up since I’ve been here last. Ordered:
-Gỏi Gà, Lòng Gà, - nice and tangy. Squired taste but definitely authentic Vietnamese
-Cơm Tôm, Gà Nướng - the kids enjoyed the shrimp, chicken and white rice.
-Ðặc Biệt Phở Tây Hồ, - broth still good. Not as rich as I remembered. I ordered the XL. I couldn’t finish it today. Perhaps I just ordered too many dishes in the menu. The force is weak today.
22. Chả Cá Tây Hồ - first time I’ve had this dish here. Shrimp paste is an acquired taste. The paste sauce is a fermented condiment commonly used in Southeast Asian and Southern Chinese cuisines. It is primarily made from finely crushed shrimp or krill mixed with salt, and then fermented for several weeks. A little goes a long way.
The cha ca portion was huge. My wife couldn’t finish it. We had to take it to go.
Authentic offerings especially the Bun Noodle Salad which you make in a separate bowl. However the pork had too much fat despite its nice seasoning and nice.cjarcoal char.

Wholly Molly, service is rapid! I ordered, and a couple of minutes later, our entrees and the main dish were here!
Soups are tasty 😋!
Absolutely my favourite pho spot :) they also have the best takeout box, so convenient I love it
Tasty, fast service, reasonable price, and above all: generous quantity. Their specialty is chicken pho, well worth a detour. Their ''bun cha Tay Ho'' is my other favorite dish.
