HÀ Vieux-Montréal

Please try this amazing Vietnamese restaurant ! Not only one of the cutest restaurant in the area with a secret bar in the basement, but the food is absolutly amazing! The service is very efficient and the staff always has good suggestions. Their drinks are also very good and refreshing (I only take mocktails and tried a few of them, always satisfied). As for food, their fried brocoli is definitly my favorite!

Had the fried broccoli, lemongrass chicken and pad Thai. Delicious. Service eas great and food was great. Fried broccoli was to die fro.

Total disappointment. I came back to Hà Vieux-Montreal with high hopes, remembering how amazing their pad Thai was a few years ago. Back then, the sauce had depth—the perfect balance of tamarind tang, palm sugar and fish sauce. Shrimp were stir-fried into the dish, flavors were layered, and everything was delicious. Not anymore. This time, there was no tamarind flavor at all—just a blunt, overpowering saltiness from fish sauce. The shrimps were battered and thrown on the side like an afterthought. The pork had no flavor. The noodles were soggy. None of the ingredients blended together. If this dish were an ECG, it’d be a third-degree AV block: the components were there, but completely disconnected. Its presentation was also poor. Even the bao my friend ordered was dry and disappointing. She needed an entire bottle of water just to get through it. I don’t know if the cook left or if there’s a new owner, but whatever magic Hà used to have is gone. Sadly, never again.

The service was friendly and exceptional from the moment we walked in until the moment we left. Our server was incredibly helpful in identifying vegan options for our table. The food was delicious and satisfying. I’ve never had pad Thai with such a dynamic flavour. The sauce was sweet but not too sweet; it was tangy and bright without being sour. The tofu bao were amazing! They had to change up the sauces for us so please let them know of any allergies or dietary preferences.

Restaurant HÀ was absolutely phenomenal. The service was excellent, with enthusiastic, friendly and helpful team members who were excited to welcome us in and serve us. The food was great, with my partner ordering the Coconut Tom Yum Salmon, which was to die for, and my more traditional Pho Lao, which, while not exciting, as it was traditional, was executed flawlessly and was perfect.

I was in the mood for a pho soup and this place came up! We went at 6pm on a Friday and there were just a few tables. The staff was friendly, the decor was nice. The spring rolls with chicken were really good, the little peanut sauce it came with was warm which was nice. The soup was honestly super flavourful and tasty. It's a good spot to check out:)

Okay, I was the nightclub speakeasy below the restaurant upstairs and it was awesome. They had a great DJ and the place was fun. Beautiful Montreal dressed to the nines with awesome cocktails. The lady bartender was a cocktail craftsman. She was also a siren with touch of euro sophistication. Great time.

Good food. Be prepared to sit in a noisy vibrant place.
