Restaurant Pho Bac 01

Walked in and the restaurant had a smell but it might have been the fish sauce. BYOB which is nice and the service is quick. Won ton soup is great and so is the crispy noodles. Could have had more vegetables on top but overall it’s a good bang for your buck.

Dirty. Fly came in my food right as I started eating it. It was stuck in the sauce really nasty. They offered me a2$ refund lol. I'm never going back

We went there looking for a good Pho. As the name of the restaurant is Pho Back , we expected to be at the right place to enjoy a good one. I wouldn't say it was bad or disappointing. But clearly frustrating : the 'Large' bowl size is not a real large, clearly more a medium size compared to other Vietnamese Pho restaurant. Adding to this, we order 'Special' Pho so comes a longs with extra beef and beef balls. It turn out that you will pay extra $2 dollar but in fact it's just 1 small beef ball cup in to 4 tiny pieces.... ? Ingredients are poorly given, just few small pieces of meet, felt like just eating noodles and soup.... frustrating. If you're looking for a good Pho, not the place.

Had an amazing experience today trying pho for the first time. I got the beef and vegetables XL (it is really large) and fried bananas for l desert. The food was absolutely awesome! You definitely need to try those fried bananas, they are SO good. The pho had so many flavors and textures in it, absolutely awesome! Their prices are really good too, the bill came up to ~20cad per person with tips (I only drank water, add a little bit more if you're ordering drinks). The place is super cozy, really good service.

This was my first experience at Pho bac 01, came thanks to a friends suggestion since i was looking for a good Pho soup. All i got to say is waoooowwww ??? from the moment i tasted the broth i was at a loss for words. My satisfaction   level was at a record high. Finished my XL bowl and wanted another one immediately but i had to control my urges. The service was great also.

I love Pho Bac 01 for the comfort food quality of its menu ♥️ delicious soups, good portion sizes and the best most authentic fried imperial rolls in town!

Terrible quality and worse service. Overall - this was an EXPERIENCE. DO NOT eat here. I've never actually ranted about how terrible a restaurant could be but there is a first time for everything. My housemate had ordered a chicken & shrimp dish with vermicelli noodles. Aside from the portion of chicken being pretty much unnoticeable, the dish was off. It smelled wrong and it was just not right. We politely asked if they could take it back or switch it out for the soup, which seemed okay (aside from the fact that the lid wasn't properly put back on the hoisin sauce so that and a pool of sauce exploded into my soup). The waitress 'went to speak with the manager' about my roommates dish. She came back and rudely said its too bad, we had to pay for it, "people like it". Honestly, the chicken looked more like a dead rat, and provided approximately the same amount of meat. They refused to comp or replace the dish which we had now asked multiple times and tried to find some type of solution. This restaurant did not want to make this situation right. It was inedible and we decided the best thing to do was to pay and leave. My girlfriend and I paid for our soups and rolls. My roommate on principal said he would pay for the roll, and not the abomination that was his dish. THIS proceeded to a phone call with the 'manager' that held us up for literally 15 minutes at the cash (I stayed because I could not believe what was going on), and they went so far as to threaten him with the police. From the cash you can also see into the kitchen. The part that made my stomach churn was seeing the bin of meat sitting open on the counter for the entirety of our payment experience. There is no remote chance that this kitchen follows food safety standards. None of us had ever 'walked out' at a restaurant before, and I'm not sure I agree with that etiquette, but all I can say is DO NOT GO HERE. I hope this helps someone else from making the same mistake. Will NEVER return.

Inexpensive and BYOW. Is it the best pho in the city? No. Is it delicious and worth every penny? Yes. I see comments about rude wait staff, I never had an issue. They don't fawn over you, but they serve you just fine. Great spot in Verdun.
