Pho 88

Ok, it’s never going to be famous for it’s stellar customer service, but… it’s a cute little local place where you can bring your own beer or wine, have a good bowl of phở or noodle soup or satay, it’s perfectly noisy and busy (as most places like this are), good for groups and your wallet won’t hurt when you leave.
Appetizers were great for sharing, main dishes substantial, the food is pretty good.
Not bad for a little noodle place on Decarie!

This is a very casual and quick restaurant that serves very good phở.
I had the vegetable peanut butter «raviolis» AKA dumplings to start, which were great. Gooey and saucy — just how I like it.
As for the phở, I ordered the chicken one which came quickly and was the perfect temperature. It was extremely filling. Add some hot sauce to make it even better.
The waitress was a bit awkward and didn’t speak much english, but all our food came out right.
I recommend Phở 88 for a good quick and simple phở dinner!

I’ve ordered several times from here before and it never disappoints. Food is always good and fresh. I had vegetables with steamed rice today and it was excellent.

Simple décor, clean and decent food for the price
Good for quick lunch
I had hot and sour soup, flavour is good, not too hot but it’s easily fixable

Decent restaurant with okay phở and chicken satay dishes. There are better phở and Thai places than this in the city.

As a very big Phở fan and enthusiast, i do not agree with people saying the soup is «tasteless». Its good but its not the best.
For a quick Phở fix near my home its perfect.
I reside in Hampstead and its near. I don’t always want to drive all the way to chinatown.
The chicken and rice is great but i find the rice portion is quite small.
Definitely a quick weekday night dinner.
They even have a couple spots to park in the back.

Tred tres bon! Service rapide et agreable :) je reviendrai 100% pas d’accord avec les commentaires negatifs.

It was not very good. Not terrible though. The phở and the tom yum both lacked hugely in flavour. Very very bland. The beef in the phở was awful, tasted like processed meat. The spring roll and imperial roll were average. The peanut sauce was so strange, it tasted watered down. The service was fantastic, however and the staff all really friendly. They do take debit now to whomever wrote that they didn’t. The place was clean and they offer a large menu. I would maybe go back but perhaps try ordering something different.

Very crowdy during the lunch time. Choose other eating hours, otherwise you will have to share your table with strangers.
Good food. Amazing asian fragrances. Look for the best recipes on the wall board.
The fried ice cream is mandatory. The service could be better, the waitreses are always in a hurry and don’t have time to explain the menu. The prices are really good for the portions the offer.

The Phở is really not good :(
Probably the worst I ever had. It was tasteless and had ingredients such as broccoli, lettuce and carrots… it’s the fist time I’ve seen that and it’s not good.
The fried ice cream for dessert was okay but I’m not going back. There are great Vietnamese restaurants on Cotes-​Des-​Neiges.

Lame debit or cash only. No credit card.
Phở was not very good here. Soup was decent but not hot enough and noodles were overcooked. Did not feel very well after eating here. I question the quality/​freshness of their meats. One alarming thing is the waitress/​owner has no idea what’s good and what’s not. She was like I don’t know I never tried it… what kind of owner doesn’t know what their chef cooks and what’s good and what’s not?
Would never come here again.

One of the best Vietnemese places I’ve found so far in Montréal. Location is not great right on the Decarie, but it’s worth finding a parking spot for the food inside! Good service and fast as well.

Good soups, good price. Nothing extraordinary, but would come back since it’s close to me.

This is such a good Vietnamese restaurant. Service is kinda awkward because some of the servers are more fluent in Vietnamese than others, but overall it’s good.
They have a good, cheap selection of appetizers, rice dishes and of course, soups. As well as the traditional phở, they have stuff like tom yum, beef ball soup. Good stuff! The portions are of a good size and the dishes always delicious.
If you order a soup you get a little plate with bean sprouts, thai basil — which they grow themselves on the deck (in the summer at least) — and lime, and there are a plethora of condiments already on the table, including sriracha, chili paste, fish sauce. and a bunch of other stuff I haven’t even tried!
A main dish is usually under $ 10, so if you get an appetizer with it and include the tips, a meal for one usually comes up to $ 15 — pretty good if you ask me.
The owner of the place is also very friendly and cheery, so it’s a nice little atmosphere they have going.
I highly recommend this restaurant if you like soups. I however have not tried the rice or noodle-​based dishes, but I assume they are just as good :)

Service is not their strength, but the food is pretty decent. Nice portions, good prices, and average taste.
Just ask for a receipt, please. I hate restaurants that are non-​compliant with the law requiring them to provide printed receipts. Phở 88 is still using handwritten receipts and I doubt they are recording cash sales in the register.
