Pho, banh mi, fresh spring rolls, and Vietnamese iced coffee.
"Tran Cantine Vietnamienne may be the only Vietnamese restaurant in the neighbourhood — but it certainly leaves little to be desired. The pho, banh mi sandwiches, and spring rolls are always fresh and flavourful. Be sure to pick up a Vietnamese iced coffee to wash it all down." - Eater Staff
"Previously in Saint-Henri, I found Tran Cantine — opened by Marylyn Tran and Alain Nguyen on Notre-Dame Street West in 2017 — which earned raves for its banh mi sandwiches, chicken-broth pho, and rare beef salad; the owners have now expanded those offerings to a Mile-Ex takeout counter with the same menu." - Valerie Silva
"I learned that the Saint-Henri Vietnamese restaurant Tran Cantine announced it will close to on-site diners and operate takeout and delivery only, though it did not explicitly state its reason for doing so." - Valerie Silva
"St-Henri’s relatively young Vietnamese snack bar serves a chicken broth soup with rare beef, flank, chicken or bean curd. With a family connection to Pho Tay Ho near Beaubien metro, the place uses quality ingredients, meaning it won’t be the cheaper MSG-hit you might expect (and crave) — but it’ll still be delicious."
"I see this as a casual St-Henri Vietnamese counter, and Marylyn Tran, co-owner of Cantine Tran, will take much of the responsibility for the food; she also grew up in the family that owns Petite-Patrie icon Pho Tay Ho, which speaks to her local Vietnamese roots." - Tim Forster
