Pho Ly Quoc Su — Restaurant in Montreal

Honestly the best pho i've ever had and one of the best meals I've ever had. The broth was so delicious and the veggies were fresh and crunchy which I love.

Me and my friend have tried the following: Vegetarian imperial rolls (please note it comes with 2, not 3 like said in the description): absolutely delicious fresh, comes with a delicious sauce

Vegetarian Pho: my friend said it was delicious! She loved the fried tofu.

Well done beef Pho: broth was crazy good, the beef was delicious and tender (but the meat was very fatty, which might be the norm for this dish but i personally don't like fatty meat)

Grilled chicken Pho: same delicious broth, the chicken was amazing and the veggies were fresh. This dish was so amazing and I will be coming back many times for it!

The only downside was the service. We were only about 4 people in the restaurant and yet the waiter took forever to get us the bill and never came to check up on us. It could've been better but the food it so worth it that it doesn't matter. The food came out quick aswell!

All in all, I will be returning very often - this might be one of my favourite...

To preface this review, I went at a non-busy time in a group of 2.

We had many issues with the service and food:

Ordered a rare beef pho and a rare beef & well done beef pho. Received a well done beef pho and a rare beef & well done beef pho.

They served the pho lukewarm! The rare meat didn't cook in the slightest!!!!!!! After asking to reheat the pho, they returned it THE SAME TEMPERATURE.

I requested fresh chilis from the staff 3 times throughout the meal and never received any.

Very minimal sauce included. They give tiny portions of sriracha/hoisin so you have to keep asking. It would be way better to have the bottles at the table like other authentic Vietnamese establishments.

Personal opinion - the pho broth was too sweet, missing some acidity.

Don't sit anywhere near the door in cold weather, they leave the outer door open sometimes so when the inner door is opened you'll be frozen.

On the bright side, they have friendly staff and a great atmosphere (upstairs is...

Glad to find a decent Vietnamese restaurant downtown.

My pho with rare beef was served with cooked beef. I wonder if there was a lack of synchronization between front and back of house. If it sits too long in the pass, the the thinly sliced beef cooks.

The service was ok , but definitely needs work. As a lone diner, I do not need 2 waiters watching me eat, whether they were looking at me or behind me, they needed to be more discreet. And where were they when I was trying to get my bill to pay and leave?

I am of average height, the booth side of the table is too high so one has to bend a little too much over to eat. The other diners around me were in the same predicament.

The spa-like covers of popular songs was a bit loud with only 6 people in the restaurant and also set a weird atmosphere: is it a spa or a vibrant new restaurant?

Also, English-speaking staff only? That’s why I’m writing my review in English to make sure my review is understood.

With these small adjustments, things...
