Restaurant I AM Pho

I love this place SO MUCH<3<3<3 The pho is amazing and not pricy at all, there’s a large variety of pho with different types of meat, the servings are big enough, and the flavors oh my god, I love eating there with my friends or alone, it’s never disappointing. The delivery is top notch, everything is separated (broth, meat, sauce, etc) so the noodles don’t come soggy and overcooked. The viet style coffee is to die for, not too sweet or bitter! They don’t close too early which is perfect for people like me who finish work late and don’t have a lot of time to eat during their shift. Really really recommend this place if you want to eat well and not spend too much money.

I ADORE this place! Super rich and flavorful broth that just tastes like love, amazing takeout containers, and GREAT portions for the price. The noodles are perfectly cooked, and all the meats are absolutely amazing! I'm a big fan of their all dressed Pho. It comes with so much meat. Thought it might not be for everyone! (Comes with tendon and tripe!) But if you don't like the uncommon cuts of meat, they have plenty of options just as AMAZING! Super kind and attentive staff, and extremely fast service! I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a refreshing and hearty bowl of Pho ❤️!

The soup was average. I try different restaurants, and this place isn't the best for pho. However, the service was very good , and the prices were reasonable for the service provided.

Ordered pho and spring rolls! Pho was big and very nice, a lot of beef. Two spring rolls for the portions but they were decently sized. They were doing some works which was making loud noises but overall very good!

Rare beef pho was good. Could have come with more noodles. Meat portion was good. Broth had good flavour

I really enjoy the food here every time, specially “Pho Dac Biet” and “Com Suon Nuong”. Today I just tried salad “Goi Du Du Kho Bo”, it’s good fresh taste! I like it 👍

I always ordered on Uber eats but I came to eat in for the first time and honestly the quality of the food is superb. It’s authentic Vietnamese food. (I would know im Vietnamese :) The quality is amazing, the portions are generous. Every time I have a Vietnamese craving I always come here and they never disappoint !

In general, it is pretty good. We had Pho, spring rolls, and chicken skewers. I had better Pho around Montreal The prices are reasonable but seems to have increased a lot over the past two years.

Ordered take out for the family via Uber eats. I ordered the bun bo hue and I love that this restaurant offers this dish because I find that Vietnamese restaurants typically do not offer this dish. If you've never tried it, I highly recommend it! Not only are the noodles different than pho but the broth and flavour is completely different. It's more floral and lemongrassy and slightly spicy. Lots of flavour. They only offer one size for take out and the containers are pretty convenient, I'm almost tempted to reuse them for salads. Highly recommend.

We had bun bo hue, pho dac biet and pho bo vien. We've had bun bo so many times, but this has got to be 1 of the best! Fragrant and flavorful. Beef in pho was so good, I'm not sure if it's the Canadian beef that's making it so good. Fast friendly service. Family friendly, casual place.

Unassuming Viet restaurant on the exterior but very beautiful atmosphere inside. Phở đặc biệt and chè ba màu were pretty good, nothing too out of the ordinary. The coffee was nice and strong. The fried chả giò wasn't it though.

Great food, quick and good quality. Reasonable rates for the quantity and quality. Decent service. Good location. Parking place right in front lot - get the ticket stamped at the corner pharmacy after parking and then get it validated to pay after eating and before taking the car out. Famous quick going small seating place so expect the queue at the peak time.

Came here for a quick bite and it was authentic, quick, filling and yummy. The staff, Simon, was also so friendly and gave us a bunch of recommendations for where to go in Montreal. Had the grilled pork chop over rice, cooked beef pho, and the shrimp spring rolls and everything was really good! The price was very reasonable as well. Highly recommened!

Yum yum yum. Quick and delicious!!! Little side street resto with awesome food! The food was fresh and flavourful.

The bun bo hue was warming and delicious. My server was very nice, and the price was reasonable.

My husband and I ate at I Am Pho for the first time a few days ago. We had been searching for a Vietnamese place for breakfast and this one was within walking distance from our hotel. I Am Pho is upstairs in a building which also houses I Am Banh Mi. It's a fairly small restaurant, sparsely furnished but pretty much the usual for a (non-fancy) Vietnamese restaurant. We ordered the Imperial rolls and pho. The Imperial rolls came first and were delicious. They were made with nice, crispy rice wrappers, piping hot and really tasty. We had absolutely no complaints. Our bowls of pho came next and they were piping hot, very generously filled with lots of protein and the broth was so delicious. There were lots of noodles and they were just the perfect texture with a little bit of a bite to them. There was lots of lime, beansprouts and basil served on the side. The service was friendly and efficient. We'd definitely go back for both the rolls and the soup!

Top 5 pho restaurants I've ever had. We've had lots of pho in Virginia, Cali and NC. I'd say this was SO good. The broth tasted so clean and flavorful. I got the bun Bo hue which had an incredible flavor. BBH is my fav food and this was almost as good as my aunts. Wish it was spicier but you add the spice yourself.

Fantastic spot if you're craving pho at night and you want a quick bowl to feast in! In and out in thirty minutes. Can get busy but the turnaround is quick! Soup est delicious.

So good! Food and service is amazing! Highly recommend if you feel like having a warm bowl of Pho

...Good soup. Very good actually, especially when the broth is hot. Their deliveries have been an issue multiple times in the past. They also forget items or get the order wrong pretty often. But the soup... it's good.

The best pho option on Uber Eats we've found during the pandemic. I was cycling through the options, but have since made I Am Pho my main squeeze. Everything is always prepared super quickly as you'd hope for with pho, and delivery to our place is Place Des Arts is always very fast (important when you're ordering raw beef!) The broth is one of the tastiest I've tried and the portions are excellent. Definitely a good value. They give you a TON of meat with the pho tai and they are not stingy with the noodles or bean sprouts either. I also like that for takeout they give you a deep bowl that you can actually put all the items into so you don't have to bust out your own bowl or awkwardly eat little bits and spill. The beef skewers are also super tasty and tender, and the spring rolls are standard in a good way. Overall a solid pho option and my go-to.

We were looking for another Pho restaurant but found this instead (close to our hotel). This hole in the wall place was a good find. Not an impressive (or super clean) place - decor and aesthetic wise - but the food were quite good. The waiter did forget one order and brought the dessert before our pho but the food made up for that negligence. We're only human after all so I'm not holding that against him. In addition, prices were very reasonable.

service was nice, and noted that they offered outdoor dining which isn't too common in this part of Montreal. the food was very MID as the kids say. Started with a literal fly in the fish sauce and bland bun & an even more bland pho that I did not finish even though I hate to waste food. It did not taste fresh - had a bunch of zucchini in it that tasted like it was grilled a few days ago. Anyway, seems popular, and everyone working there was nice. Wish them well!

By far this is the best Pho I have had in Montreal (and I have tried dozens, trust me)! The prices are great and the food is even better- so much flavour!!!!! I can't wait to have this again on a chilly day!

I wasn't disappointed with the entree of beef pho which had one of the most flavourful broth I've ever tasted but unhappy with the poor service and when it came to the meal; the grilled chicken is close to perfection but the fish sauce was totally off balance; too sweet and messed up the flavours for the vermicelli etc ... Also for having only 6 other clients in the resto, the waiter was really absent and bother line rude.

I ordered delivery and really glad they open late. Large portion with plenty of toppings. Soup was good but will be better with a little more salt and spices but still loved it! Would definitely again.

Awesome! Love it! Clean place, perfect pho and side dishes. The rolls are really good, this place is much better then the other pho places around it.

Excellent pho place if you are near concordia. Good portions good price. Their spring rolls were crispy fresh and hot. Would recommend this resto for sure

Ordered for delivery, even though it's a bit farther from my house than I would usually order, so it was a bit of a wait, but well worth it in the end. I got rare beef soup, beef skewers, and the chicken imperial rolls. Everything was delicious!

The place itself is nice and cozy. However I was not that impressed by the food. I ordered the mini pho + the vermicelli with chicken and egg roll. Came out to $20 with tip. Not that bad but not that cheap either. The food was a bit too salty (pho) and too sweet (vietnamese dipping sauce) for my taste. I usually like to drink the broth but I couldn't without risking heartburn. The waitress was very lackluster. No smile, and didn't give me any water. I might return if I'm in the area but wouldn't actively go there. Edit: I was very thirsty after and chugging water which is rare. Probably an indicator of lots of sodium/msg :/

Quarantine blues calls for comfort food and the only thing on my mind (and stomach) was pho. Decided to order pho from this restaurant from Uber Eats and was not disappointed. Food arrived promptly, quality packaging and generous portions! I've never been to the restaurant in person yet, but I plan to go at a later possible date for the complete experience! Tip: If you order delivery, reheat the soup so it's super hot and fresh when you add it to your rice noodles :)

I'm not an expert in Pho, haven't tried many places to compare, but I liked it. They open on late hours during this pandemic so it is pretty convenient when you don't feel like cooking and you are walking nearby. You just order inside, then wait outside, 10 min later your order will be ready. So they put the broth in one container and then the rest in a soup pot. When you arrive home, you can combine the whole thing so your noodles don't become mushy. Broth is pretty tasty. On this picture I tried the meatballs option, but I prefer another option that they have which has all sorts of meats, that one is very good. I also ordered a grilled chicken and it was very good as well. They will add as well very nice sauces on the side like Hoisin sauce or hot sauce, and some mung bean sprouts and mint. And of course, they do have delivery.

Great pho quick ! Clean and consistent. Prices are reasonable. Support a local business.

I MADE A MISTAKE IN ADDING THIS RESTAURANT BY THE NAME. THE REAL NAME IS "I AM PHO", BUT BY LOOKING AT THEIR BUSINESS CARD, YOU CAN SEE WHY IT'S EASY TO MISS THE REAL NAME. Wow, what a great find. I flew into Montreal, just for one night. I only really had time to venture for a quick lunch, right after checking into the Best Western Ville Marie. My cellphone was having trouble connecting to the data celular line while I walked and so my trusty Yelp app was rendered unusable. I proceeded to walk aimlessly, trying to follow the bands of students who seemed to come and go though different halls of Magill university. I asked around without sounding like a homeless person, mostly where the good Asian restaurants where in the area. I had a lust for psome good Thai or Vietnamese, which is always a good bet in Montreal. My previous culinary experiences included "au pied de cochon" and various Thai and Middle Eastern joints, but this would only make my third visit to Montreal. Looking for something apparently Vietnamese that a young man pointed towards, I stumbled upon this place. It's a small unassuming room on the second floor of a small building. The menu on a blackboard on the wall but also mini blackboards with specials of the day. I had the cold rolls for an appetizer which were very fresh and generous. The sauce was very appetizing. I then had the grilled pork chop pho, a regular menu item on the board. The pork was cooked really well and it had great color as well as taste. The rice vermicelli was delightful and so were the ingredients that completed this simple and effective dish. The lady that attended me was courteous but unusually honest and suggested what would be the proper amount of food for me to order. Therefore, she adviced against ordering both the "three color coconut" and the Vietnamese coffee. "too much sweet", she said. Although I have been to Hanoi and had plenty of such coffee at the hotel, she brought a small metal percolator that sat on top of the coffee cup and also a big mug full of ice. After I got over my embarrassment of not understanding what's going on, I asked for help. She told me that I had to wait until all of the coffee had drained to the bottom, then stir the condensed milk at the bottom vigorously. Only after that, I should really pour over the hot coffee into the iced mug. I vacilated, somehow I wanted my coffee hot, but once again and very frankly, she indicated that it'd be best to water down a little because it's otherwise too sweet. And she was right! It was both coffee and dessert. I spoke to the owner briefly, mostly because I tried to talk him out of playing the "Asian pop massage new age never-ending" never resolving music. I said : "play the music of your grandparents" the beautiful folk music of monochord and drums, etc. He shrugged my comments and we spoke about new york, Queens, the best Vietnamese restaurants there and, why so many of the ones in the west side closed. He told me that this restaurant is relatively new. I would definitely come back soon if I knew when I will be back. The prices are reasonable and I don't think they will have a problem drawing large crowds.

Not impressed, the noodles were too soft and the soup was lacking in flavour. Pho places in Chinatown are much better. Another small incident that happened was that the lady at the cash pulled my arm and said that the tip was not enough when I did enter a 15% tip for a pho order of about 10$ and turned around to leave, so I put another loonie on the counter without thinking, and only then I saw they charged me for a large bowl even though I actually had a medium bowl. Since I already paid with credit card and she took the extra tip, she wouldn't correct it. The 1$ difference was nothing, however I wasn't happy with the service attitude here.

Glad I found this little cozy restaurant when I was wandering down the streets. The owner was super friendly. The food was amazing and the service was great! Really resembles the flavours of Vietnamese food, which is pretty hard to find anywhere in the city of Montreal. Bún bò Hu is charming and Grilled Porkchop is impressively well done! The price is reasonable as well. You also get a free dish every 7 dishes! As a Vietnamese myself, this is officially my new favorite place to go to. 11/10 would come back! Totally recommended!

Not the best but not the worst either. The delivery from Uber Eats came fast and nicely presented. The bun bo hue broth was flavorful and spicy which is how I like it.

This is my go-to pho place now, every time I eat there I am surprised by how good their pho is. My previous go to was another Pho place nearby but this place really goes all out with the broth and ingredients. I usually get the grilled chicken pho which really does the trick especially in our dark and cold winters. I'm super glad this place popped up In this city and I'm excited to keep coming back to it!

Taste is not really bad was okay but it's full of msg. We got really thirsty after having pho there. Do not recommend.

Good portion size for the Pho Tai, but didn't enjoy how it was packed for takeaway. The beef was packed tightly in a ball that was hard to boil in the broth.

For many Yelpers that read my review know that I am a big fan of Pho. I've been to this place a couple of time and I gotta say, their pho soup is tasty, the meat are tendered. The decor of place is trendy, cozy and clean. Especially the location, it's right in the heart of downtown (Guy Corcordia) area. If you need a quick fix of Pho, this is the place. Now you may wonder why I gave 2 stars and not more, it is due to my most recent experience. I ordered delivery and it had a small little problem... And when I reported the issue to the restaurant, their reaction is unacceptable. So I ordered, 1 regular size & 1 extra large pho. When it arrived, they have identify on the box which one is which but when I open box and realize both has the same amount of meat and noodles. So I decided to make a courtoisie and report the issue. Instead of listening to my comment, the worker (not sure if it's the owner or just their waitress), started educate me by saying "it's identified on the box, I don't understand why you are confused bla bla", I had to yell out "Would you listen to me first?" Then she said "Oh, well since the order is out now there's nothing I can do, when you place an order next time, maybe you can write in the comment" right there. I lost it, I told her I was not expecting you do anything this time and there will be no next time. This is pretty much a scam. They have great food quality and it is so sad to have such a reaction that they are on denial. I still recommend people to eat there, just be careful on what you order and just don't get any delivery or take out.

I absolutely loved this place. What a great bowl of pho! I went with the pho tai (rare beef soup). They have 2 sizes: regular ($10) and large ($11.50). The large bowl is great if you have a huge appetite! Lots of noodles and meat in every bowl. And the flavour of the soup was fantastic. Definitely one of the best pho restaurants in the downtown core.

Pros: -Food is good. Pho, beef satay, egg rolls - all tasty. -Cute place with pleasant decor -Super convenient being right across from Guy metro. - Very reasonably priced. Cons: Waitress provided terrible service. She automatically set down glasses of cold water and when my mom asked if she could also get a cup of hot water, she snatched the cold water out of my mother's hand and stormed off in a huff. She returned later with what was clearly hot tap water (vs hot boiled water like you would use for tea). My mother literally spit it out because it was so gross. I would have said something to the waitress except she never came back once to check on us. They weren't that busy so there was no excuse for lack of service. This waitress, and the other one working, never once cracked a smile. They seemed miserable and put that misery onto their customers.

My AirBnb host recommended this place. What a great find. The prices are extremely reasonable and the pho is absolutely delicious with flavors that abound. The service was exceptional. I cannot eat gluten, and they accommodated me by using rice noodles. I was so happy. Good place for healthy, nourishing, tasteful food at a great price. My dinner was only $10 - I ordered the smaller serving and it was more than enough.

Great service ! Tiny place, but they accommodated all 9 of us! And delicious food! The chicken soup was amazing and warming for such a cold day!

We were looking for a good Vietnamese restaurant. Stumbled upon this place, and had to give it a review. The food was amazing! We had the bun bo hue and rice with chicken. The food was authentic!! The service was great, very quick to bring out the food. The Vietnamese ice coffee was also a delight!

Mehh. This place is definitely below average. The soup is lukewarm, the peanut sauce is super watery and the salad rolls are not wrapped well. Had the beef pho and the meat was all fat. Broth didn't have much flavour. Price point is not worth the quality. The service was very callous as well. You'd be better off elsewhere if you're craving pho.

Your classic bowl of pho, tastes pretty much as good as it gets! There really is nothing to complain about.

We came from New York to visit Montreal and decided to try this place that my friend suggested. The food is really good. My son is a picky eater, but he finished the entire bowl of noodle. The porkc over rice is a must try! I would highly recommend it to my friends and family. The waiter is extremely nice.

Didn't know what to expect since i've never ordered from 'I Am Pho' but I am definitely NOT disappointed.I ordered through DoorDash and the delivery was very quick as well. The portions are very big and definitely worth the value. Also i've tried many kinds of pho and I have to say this is my favorite so far, something about the flavour and taste is so on point and the ingredients are fresh and tasty as well.

This is definitely one of my favorite pho spots in Montreal. Their service is quick, nice and the restaurant is always clean. Plus their phos are great. My personal favorite is their Bun Bo Hue. It's packed with authentic flavors and the portions are good. The prices are also very affordable and the best part of this place is their homemade spicy sauce. You can find it on the tables in these big jars and they add such a great savory kick.

Two dinners in a row. We were very pleased after each meal. My wife is VN and she loved the authentic taste and appearance of the food. The place is small, but service was good and quick. They also run the VN Sandwich shop below it. I'll definitely be back to grab an Banh Mi.

I got the com suon nuong with extra ga nuong (rice with pork chop and chicken) and it was amaaazing! The meat were soft and tender while packed with a lot of flavour! I also tried some of my friend's pho and it was so good! The flavour was authentic with a decent amount of pho and rare beef. They don't cheap out!

The food was good but I found a small piece of black hair in the soup. Also the table wasn't well cleaned.

Great price for great food. We were seated,served and paid for in 30 minutes. Delicious Viet food for budget price. Pretty darn good Pho. Served fast and efficient.

We came here with a large group. Adults and children. Staff was quick and efficient. Food was very good and authentic. The pho noodle soup was delicious as was the grilled pork chop. Soup broth had depth. Vietnamese iced coffee was on point too!
