Phở Kim — Restaurant in Montreal

First of all, for someone that was raised in Montréal and had a thousand Pho soups I wouldn't go back, and I do not recommended if you know and like Pho soup. This is more of a fast food place than a authentic Viet restaurant especially when it comes to the flavor and quantity for the price you paye.

Second of all, There was a Viet couple on one table and me and my Dad on another, we are hispanic. We were the only two tables occupied at the restaurant. When the couple got their soups right in front of us, it was served with a side of Sprout Beans, Thai basil, limes and chilli oil. When we got ours, the owner brought only the soups. We thought it might of been a mistake but when I asked for the veggies he looked at us weirdly like he assumed that we wouldn't like it. After he brought the veggies I also had to ask him to bring the Chilli oil which he assumed and warned if I was sure because it was spicy although I had already told him that I ate spicy before ordering. Last but not least I asked for Fish sauce and he looked at me weird again as if he was surprised that I knew about it. To be honest it was quite insulting to assume that I wouldn't enjoy any of these ingredients and it just feels as if he if just trying to save a few dollars.

To conclude, I feel like if I go out to eat and paye the same price for a dish as any other customer then their should be a standard of the sides that come with that dish even if I wouldn't touch them. Correct me if I am wrong but that is what I've been used to for the last 30 years in all the beautiful Viet restaurants I've been in this city. Owners, please have some standards, I would really like you guys to do well and maybe also offer some speciality meats like (Tendons,...

Honestly, i don't usually write reviews but this time I have to.

I've been there once and It was pretty much at my satisfaction. This time, I went there for a take out. When I got home, i look at the broth and i see onions and old coriander in it as you can see in the picture. Don't get me wrong on this, in my mind, I directly thought it is old soup from other old bowls from other customer eating there. Otherwise, why would there be some chopped onions and old corianders in it. The soup tasted not fresh from the pot but tasted like it was mixed already. We all know from the pot and mixed in the bowl, the broth doesn't taste the same. I took off the plastic cover from the bowl and I look at the noodles, I was all super fluffy and looked old. From experience, i can tell it wasn't new because the noodles was absolutely not sitting the way it suppose to when you pour it from the strainer to the bowl. I could see 2 different bunch of noodles... one tasted still like lime and like it was mixed with something in the old bowls... all i can say is that it didn't taste fresh at all. There's was a bite where I could taste oishin sauce and I never put any in my soups.

Pretty insulting to me. I wouldn't recommend anybody to go there. Old poeple working there thinking they can take us for granted or idiot. I hope i'm wrong on this. I don't know why they did this...but it's unacceptable.

That's my second and last time going there... very...

Wonderful restaurant is very delicious. My only disappointment is that the food doesn't taste the same. I had a combo of chicken meat and shrimp it didn't taste like I remembered. Even the soup is not the same. I'm not sure if they changed their cooking staff of recipes, but something was off. plus, the portions are smaller. I only got I piece of meat. Usually, they give you 2. I preferred their round plates. I'm not a big fan of the rectangle platters it's bulky and no practical. They should also fix their table they very wobbly. Maybe they were having an off day, but I won't be returning even tho I loved their food....
