I recently moved to Montréal and am searching for the best food at a reasonable price because I am a student.
I tried the pho and cold roll at Pho Nguyen. I found the price reasonable. I tried the pho with beef ball and rare beef. In the future I would skip out on the rare beef and simply have the beef ball. The beef didn't taste very good but it was the best beef ball I've had to date. The broth was not the best and needed a lot added to make it flavourful. Overall it was okay and I might give it another go just because the price is right, it's near my school and I love me some pho.
Above average Vietnamese. Pho Nguyen is probably the best Vietnamese restaurant in the Guy-Concordia area. You know what to expect: fair prices, good pho. I recommend.
I'm so glad this place exists downtown. Of course the upper echelon pho is in Chinatown or the burbs but this place is good and I have no complaints. This is a utilitarian place that gets the job done nicely. Really hits the spot when you have a basic pho craving.
If your preference for pho is getting the tendons, tripes, rare beef, well-done flank, beef balls, with a good broth not heavy on the clove, than try pho Nguyen. If you've never had pho and want to see what good basic pho is, it's good for you to. Oddly secluded despite being right next to the metro, it's good pho that knows what it's doing.
