123 Dzo Vietnamese Restaurant & Bar

We had the BBQ skewers, fried rice, and sizzling beef, everything was so good! The flavors were rich and authentic, and each dish was perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. The sizzling beef was especially a highlight! The only downside was that our waiter seemed a bit out of it, like he wasn’t really into it that day. Still, the overall experience was great, and I’d definitely come back again!

We went to 123 Dzo after our escaped the room. I really like the environment that have the Vietnamese touch. The restaurant is tapas style and they are famous for the seafood. But I found they Skeeters are nice too We had papaya salad and beef creche to start with. We shared a picher sangria to dhare and had a blue with coconut, and pink with rose. We found you can taste more coconut and pink rose taste drink than in the sangria. We have ordered a skewer platter (10pc to share), soft share crab, the noodle, rice with pick chops, a beef on the iron skillet thing. All very good! Group of 6, paid around $65 (tax and tops included) per person. Service is nice, drink is nice Now I understand why lots of people recommended this place.

We loved everything about this place. The drinks were awesome and staff very nice. We only didn’t like the chicken skin which didn’t have the best of Taste.

I live in the west Island, since my friend who lives in Laval asked me to join her at this place tonight. what a beautiful place, cool young modern vibe accentuated with Vietnamese culture. Really my type of place, good music and nice ambiance ( for those who likes good loud music) the food was a-ma-zing. really impressed. everything my friend ordered was freagin delicious! I had a really good time, the staff super friendly no joke :) thank you for the service (to the bartender who made our drinks so well according what we wanted) Im def going back soon! 2025/08/01 UPDATE Went back after 2 years, and wow. still impressed with their dishes and great service. I love the vietnamese thai fushion, soooo good.

One of the best Vietnamese Tapas in Montreal! Highly recommened but booked in advance since seating capacity is not a lot during the weekend dinner time😋

Edit: After posting the review, the Manager finally reached out and offered to refund me back the extra charge. Although, it shouldn't take this much effort to fix their mistake, I nonetheless appreciate that a resolution was reached in the end. ---------- Food: We ordered all tapas. Unfortunately, the quality of the food was quite poor. The clams were not cleaned properly and each bite was full of sand and broken pieces of shell, it was very unpleasant to eat. The Bo la lot (which also happens to be the most expensive item in the brochettes/skewers section) resembled the driest meat balls with a powdery textile. The mussels was the only dish that tasted good. But since the seafood was not cleaned properly, we all had diarrhea when we got home. The cocktails were on the sweeter side, though that is a personal preference. Service: We came in as a family for dinner and they were able to accommodate our toddler and infant. Like the other reviews have mentioned, service is very slow even though there were 3 servers at this small establishment that night. The service was disorganized and it was really hard to get the attention of anyone. The food took almost 45min to come out, not ideal when you have a hungry toddler. They then charged us for an order of soft-shell crab that we never received. Mistakes happen, so that's no big deal. We called them an hour after we left to give them a chance to fix the mistake and they promise to have the manager to call us back. No one called. I was never able to get to the Manager after calling multiple times over a week. I am informed that the Manager is seldom there but he is aware of the situation and he doesn't have time to fix it. Please note that charging someone without providing the good or service is considered fraud. I can not recommend a restaurant that believe this is ok. I really hate posting negative reviews so I waited a week before posting, giving them plenty of time to rectify the situation.

One of the very few Vietnamese restaurants in MTL that serves authentic street food, offering a wide variety of unique dishes that can't be found elsewhere. The food is delicious, and I particularly love their flan caramel dessert and corn fried dish.

I really enjoyed the food here, everything was flavourful, beautifully presented and the service was good.

Food is flavourful, the place is beautifully decorated and brings you the real vietnamese vibe. Reminds me of my hometown! Service is excellent too

Overall this place has good food and delicious and flavorful Pho! I ordered 3 items off the happy hour menu: chicken wings, fried quail eggs and the calamari. The chicken wings were crispy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside with a delicious sweet and sticky sauce. The calamari was a bit like onion rings that when you bite down the onion comes out but they had good flavor and had a lovely mayo/hot sauce dipper. The quail eggs were the star: they had a great sauce that was rich and thick and yummy salty peanuts on top. We also had some lychee sangria that was light and drank very smoothly!

This is a very small and cute Vietnamese resto. It's kinda like a tapas/full plate resto. This is a street food resto So you can get your own plate or share stuff. We got a few different things The mango salad, the chicken skewers, the mussels, the beef saute, the sticky chicken wings and to end it we got the fried banana for dessert My favorites were the mango salad it was so fresh and yummy, the chicken skewers were very flavorful which I loved and also the fried banana with coconut was devine. I would not recommend to get the mussels, they had a weird taste and odor, not sure if it was because of the toppings and the sauce but we felt bad asking to take it up. Other than that the place is nice for small and also big groups, the employees were all very nice and attentive and also the service was very fast. We got there when they had opened on a Sunday and more nd more ppl showed up and you can see that they were really consistent. Definitely recommend this place and also do a takeaway option.

Great find. We were six for supper on a Saturday night. Very simple decor. Awesome service. Friendly staff. We were confused and the waiter proposed menu dégustation . We shared plate after plate of different salads and dishes. One better than the other. We really enjoyed the food selection. Great for the adventurous types.

Original vietnamese tapas style restaurant, with nice decoration! Music a bit loud but authentic vietnamese. We shared the 10 brochette dish and soft shell crab appetizer. The sauces were amazing! The crab was very tasty too! Would return and try other dishes!

Restaurant vietnamien avec des mets moins classiques que dans la plupart des lieux que je connais. Il faut par conséquent être prêt à faire quelques essais et se laisser surprendre. Nous avons notamment essayer les dumplings aux crevettes. Rien à voir avec les précédents essais de dumplings. Cela vient emballé dans une feuille verte et l'ensemble gélatineux se détache. Le serveur nous avait prévenu que c'était pas classique! Nous avons adoré les calamars grillés qui nous avaient été recommandés par le serveur. Nous avons testé l'assortiment de brochettes et j'ai vraiment apprécié celles au tofu. Globalement une belle expérience. Le décor est simple, le personnel sympathique et la nourriture promet quelques découvertes gustatives!

Anthony Bourdain, honorary Vietnamese cultural hero, said it best in an episode of Parts Unknown: "One of the great joys of life is riding a scooter through Vietnam (...) a flowing, gorgeous thing; as you ride you not only see, you hear, a hundred intimate moments in miniature. You smell wonderful unnameable things cooking issuing from storefronts and food-stalls; you hear the sounds of beeping, laughing, announcements from speakers, the put-put and roar of a million tiny engines." Street food in Vietnam is not simply a series of traditional dishes sold on the streets but captures the beauty of the people's culture, lifestyle, and mindset. Sophisticated, complex, and yet accessible, the cuisine combines a number of ingredients, contrasting flavours, textures, focuses on the harmony of sour, salty, spicy, and sweet to bring refreshing flavours, preserve natural tastes of its ingredients and remains healthy. From dawn to dusk and into the night, Vietnamese street food is enjoyed on the sidewalks, bustling with mouthwatering dishes and tantalizing aromas, while sitting on low plastic stools, and drinking cold beers. Although thousands of miles away, we were able to sample some of the iconic dishes right here in one spot, prepared by owners and chefs Tam Nguyen and Steven (Thoai) Le at 123 Dzô in Laval. The vast món nhậu (tapas) menu includes small plates made for sharing - we tried: Gỏi Sứa (jellyfish salad), Gỏi Đu Đu Khô Bò (green papaya & beef jerky), Cánh Gà Chiên Mắm (fried chicken wings with fish sauce), Mục Nướng (grilled squid), Chef's Choice Brochettes (beef, pork, chicken, fish balls, shrimp), Chem Chếp Xào Dừa (Coconut mussels), Bánh Nạm (flat rice dumplings), Bột Chiên (Fried rice cakes & eggs), Fried bananas with ice cream and a delicious Vietnamese Crème Caramel with a side of shaved ice, doused with tasty Vietnamese coffee. Will have to return with more friends to taste the rest of the menu and drinks of course!

The rice noodle is tasteless, I asked some more soy sauce, and she didn't say anything. When she checked out, she was told that a little soy sauce was charged $2. It felt that the store was very stingy, like eating fries with more ketchup, and charged without saying.

Had the fried calamari, beef skewers and some ice cream as desert. All were pretty good, nice date place. Service was not bad. Good date place.

Went to try this spot for a datenight, very cute decor! Also lots of parking. We tried the fried chicken skin, skewers, springrolls, and clams. The food is pretty good! Highly recommend getting the skewer plate and sharing! Also loved how crunchy the chicken skin was. Pairs really well with some cold beer. Overall I would recommend!

Very nice place, so yummy food and the staff so nicely. Perfect place for hangout with family or couples. When you go to Montreal travel or work . Stop by here and enjoy.
