  This place is a bit dingy. But don't let that fool you. It'll be a benchmark for Pho.
  Prices are excellent, service is fast and above all the flavour is superb.
  Highly recommended!

  Very good value restaurant. Being in Montreal, we have the luxury to have access to a wide array of different cuisines from all around the world. That being said, there are no shortage of Vietnamese restaurants in Montreal. Pho restaurants can be found at almost any neighbourhood, with different ranges of quality and price.
  
  This restaurant is arguably one of the good deals on a bowl of Pho. Here, you can get the XL size, named the "train" size in Vietnamese, for 9$, tax in. Usually, that size would be around 12-13$ tax in in other Pho restaurants. The flavor, however, is not the best, neither the worst I've tasted. I would say average overall. The portions are good and filling. Service is definitely not a highlight, as it usually goes for asian restaurants.
  
  A bonus, there are always parking spots as it is located in a local shopping mall.
  
  Overall, a great place to get your pho fix on a budget!

  Cha Gio (imperial rolls/spring rolls):
  Mediocre. They were small, with hardly any filling resulting in minimal flavours. The texture was just right though. Had a perfect amount of crispiness that added well to the bun bo hue I had with it
  
  Bun bo hue (spicy beef vermicelli noodle soup from hue):
  Again mediocre at best. Ive read many reviews suggesting that this place would have an exceptional bowl of bun bo hue and was mildly disappointed. I found the broth to be lacking depth and spice. I ordered an extra large portion, and was also quite disappointed by how little bun (vermicelli/noodles) I felt like I received in the bowl, however they did put in quite a bit meat. In my opinion the meat:noodle ratio was off point, BUT you should also note that an XL bowl here costs less than a lot of other places (probably the cheapest) and that at that price for portion it is indeed good.
  
  Ca phe sua da (vietnamese iced coffee):
  I ordered this last while leaving and figured I would perhaps have to wait another 5 minutes or so for it to be prepared. I was wrong. Although the restaurant had hardly any customers inside, it turned out they pre-drip the coffees. Now I know there are a lot of places that do follow this practice, but nonetheless I figured "hardly anyone we'll make it fresh". In any case, I did not have high expectations for the coffee and behold....I WAS WRONG. It was quite nice. Very rich in flavour. However, the amount of coffee you get is less than half of the take out cup. The whole cup is filled with ice with only 1/4 of coffee filled (as shown in photos)
  
  The 3 items i ordered came up to be about $15. For the extremely cheap price, I would probably come back and try their pho (also read good reviews) and possibly order "extra noodles".

  They don't care losing customer!!!
  I almost come here once weekly in the past 3 years. However today is the last time to come here. I was overcharged for 2 dollar because I took additional 5 piece lime and pepper for 5 person(1 for each person).  I didn't accept this overcharge, but they don't care. even I told the staff we will never come again. they just did not care. finally they got 2 dollar but lost 5 customers.
