Pho Lien
Montreal
Kort fortalt
Anmeldelser
Pho Lien remains a classic Côte-des-Neiges institution since I was a kid living in Montréal many years ago. The staff here are incredibly nice, and the overall service is fast and good. The food consistently delivers on flavour and portion size. A lot of meat and they are considerate of senior's needs. However, the dining experience could use a few minor improvements when it comes to basic table setup. During my visit, several essential items were missing from the table, including dipping saucers, napkins, automatic water, and even the lid for the phin coffee filter. Strictly cash-only...mabe hiding from the taxmen? Just hope 100% of tips go to their hard-working staff. Overall, highly recommended.
This review is only about the Chè ba màu (lit. 'three colours chè') because it's the only thing I order. I love it, it's so delicious! I keep coming back for this even though I live in a different city now.
Favourite pho place! Even after moving to Ontario, every time I visit Quebec I come here. I especially love the dessert. Always have to get more!🥰
Cash only! They are sooo busy with full tables and non-stop take out orders for a reason. I got fatty broth pho dac biet with a side of tiny fiery green hot chili's and chili oil... heaven 😋 The noodles have a good bite to them and they have an excellent mouth feel when combined with all the things. I barely needed to dip my meats in hoisin sriracha mix, the broth is that flavourful! If this isn't the best pho in Montreal somebody please let me know
I waited for this restaurant to reopen for a year, and it was totally worth the wait. After 27 years as a customer, I can say without a doubt that they offer the best Soup Tonkinise in the city, although the food in general is very good. Another dish I love is Bun Bo Nurong (grilled beef seeded with vermicelli). Highly recommended!!!
