Restaurant Pho Maisonneuve - Montréal

I was the only guest at 8pm on a Tue - but when the food came out 5 mins after ordering, it was excellent__Other points:___1.

After reading a couple reviews about this place, I decided to give it a try.

Very welcoming staff_Generic, basement atmosphere with fluorescent lighting_Mediocre Pho Ga and spring rolls.

Food stars. Service friendliness Some of the best pho I’ve had BUT... the owner( who served us never greeted us when we arrived- in fact it was obvious we were a bother to him. Order was taken and part of order never...arrived. Other than some mumbling from him when we ordered that was the full extent of interaction. The entire time he was either on his cell phone or watching tv. Waited for check which never came so went to register which also must have been an inconvenience to him as I had to say “hello” for him to eventually turn around (he was seated on the opposite side of the counter- I could have tapped him on the shoulder)to take my money! Food delicious service horrible.

The food is great no matter what you choose on the menu. Service is a bit slow. The spring rolls were really good and so was the « tonkinoise » soup. The chicken and beef brochette was very good. You can bring your own wine.
