Fresh sugar cane juice
Issan Z.

This review is only for My Canh's freshly pressed sugar cane juice. Firstly, I don't know here else in Montreal I could get freshly pressed sugar cane juice, so I was very excited to try theirs! It took 5-10 min before the order was ready, as I suppose the juice had to be processed upon request. The price was a bit steep (6.50$) given that most of the cup was filled with ice, but the flavor was really, really worth it. The juice was fragrant and refreshing, sweet with a slight citrus taste. If it was cheaper, I would get it every other day!

We visited Restaurant My Canh for the first time today. The service was very good and fast. The waitress and waiter were both friendly and spoke English very well. We ordered the fresh spring rolls, which were nice and fresh-tasting but perhaps had a few too many raw beansprouts in them. The dipping sauce was nice with lots of chopped peanuts on top. My husband and I both had pho. Mine was with rare beef and well-done beef and there was plenty of both. My husband's was the dac biet house special with rare beef, well-done beef, tendon, tripe and meatballs. His also had plenty of protein in it. The broth was delicious and the soup was served piping hot. There were lots of beansprouts, basil and lime served on the side. The prices were also very fair. We would both definitely recommend this spot!

After my first day of my workshop, I was hungry and ready for dinner. I went back to my hotel room to drop off my stuff, changed into a pair of shorts, put my hair up, and went out. The funny thing is that one of my colleagues from the workshop and I crossed paths moments later outside our hotel. I think he was shocked to see someone spot him in casual clothes and earbuds. As for me, I really don't look all that different in any setting. Anyway, I decided to give Chinatown a closer look and went back there for dinner. The first Vietnamese restaurant that I approached was My Canh. I looked at the menu. I saw pho. Perfect! I walked in. A man with tattoos on his arms greeted me. It was just me, so I got to choose any table for two by the wall. I chose number 14, as it's my lucky number. Hey, why not? I ordered the imperial rolls. I got the regular, meaning that there is pork in the two rolls. I also got a large bowl of pho, with rare beef and beef balls. I didn't wait long to get my food. Both the imperial rolls and pho came together. I took a chance and went with the former, which were piping hot! The imperial rolls were tasty. I liked the pork and vegetable filling. They were crunchy and yummy. My pho was delicious. The broth was flavourful and good. I got a decent number of beef balls that were cut in half. The rare beef was tender. The bean sprouts, mint, and squeeze of lime all went into my bowl of pho. It was so good! All my hunger pangs disappeared as I polished off my meal. I paid at the front counter with a credit card. All went well. Staff were friendly to me. I used the washroom. It was clean. There is a sign on the front door that says that you must be a customer to use it. I enjoyed my meal. I'd come back again to try more items off the menu. (313)

My mom and I had lunch here and it was pretty good. I had the medium sized Phnom Penh Noodle Soup (aka Hi Tieu Nam Vang) $11.50. My mom had the medium sized "Mi Lakay" with the broth on the side $12.50. My noodle soup had 2 shrimps, some slices of pork, a slice of pork liver, 2 slices of pork heart, some ground pork, 2 slices of Cha Lua (Vietnamese ham, usually found in Banh Mi), fried shallots, and some tiny dried shrimps, with rice noodle. I was disappointed that it didn't come with tapioca noodles, as this dish is supposed to, but the rice noodles were satisfactory. I usually hate organ meats, but these slices were really thin, and didn't look gross and all organ-like, lol, so ate them, haha. They were ok. The broth was really fragrant, a bit too oily for my tastes (probably from the fried shallots), but really flavourful. I would have liked to have some vegetables in this dish, even though that's not the tradition, but hey, they already broke tradition with not using tapioca noodles, so why not add some Nappa cabbage or Bok Choy, right? ;) My mom's "Mi Lakay" was wheat noodles (the same type used traditionally in wonton noodle soup), BBQ pork slices, 2 shrimps, ground pork, a shrimp cracker, fried shallots, green onions and a leaf of lettuce. Since she got her soup on the side (aka dry style), they mixed a sauce into the noodles. This sauce was a bit oily and a bit salty, as per my mom. Nonetheless, she enjoyed her meal. Service was friendly and efficient. Our waters were refilled frequently, like topped up as soon as our glasses dipped below half - what service! :) There was a slight issue with my meal initially, for some reason they put wheat noodles in my soup instead of rice noodles. I noticed this as soon as they brought my bowl and notified them immediately. They were very apologetic and brought me my correct order promptly. Our orders usually come with bean sprouts, chili peppers and lime on the side, but we didn't want the 2 former items, so we just got limes. The restaurant is a very casual eatery with a cutlery caddy and condiments at each table. It's not fancy eats, but it's pretty tasty! Street parking only, since it's in Chinatown.

Soup w/ chicken
Mark M.

Pooh and I came here for lunch today because we were craving soup and Pooh thought of this place. We started out with vegetarian spring rolls and I had Tonkinese soup with flank steak and Pooh had the Tonkinese soup with grilled chicken. Everything was great and as soon as you sit down they bring you complimentary hot tea. The place looks grungy but the food is phenomenal.

Andrea D.

*home delivery review * This was so perfect for that stormy/cold rainy day. This is the most delicious, clean-tasting, authentic pho I've ever had in Montreal. I was already a loyal customer before, and will continue to be during Covid with their delivery. Generous portions with all the toppings. Fresh ingredients, authentic flavor... 10/10 for sure!

Mỹ Cảnh Mì La Cay
Chan N.

Almost four years ago, my friends and I ate here after I looked up the resto to celebrate one of our friend's bdays. Boy, was I not disappointed by the taste, quality, and price, and so were my friends. I had eaten practically everything offered on the menu at home or at other Viet restaurants except Mỹ Cảnh's Mì la cay. I haven't found it at any other Viet restos in or outside the island. Mì la cay can be ordered with the soup on top of or beside the noodles. I still remember eating it four years ago, and it did not disappoint two weeks ago. The xá xíu (char siu pork) went along so well with the noodles and fried shrimp fritter and dried onions, not to mention what devil's seasoning is in the sauce I asked my mom about it, and she told me that it has Chinese influences and that the recipe is kept secret-no wonder I can't find it on the internet! I guess I'll just stop by Mỹ Cảnh every time I crave mì la cay.

crepe with coconut milk in the dough
Eden L.

We two came for dinner. Passing by the window for hundreds of times, I finally decided to give it a try since I love vietnamien crepe. The crepe is 14$ what I think a bit higher than other places. The crepe was very crispy. I use the lettuce to wrap the crepe and mint. The taste was rich,crunchy and zesty with the sauce. Very tasty. Yummy... My husband had a beef pho. He thinks it's average. I also saw a group of seven girls ordered several General Tao chicken with rice. I bet that dish is pleasant too. Will come back to try other dishes.

Bun Rieu
Foodlover L.

We ordered bun rieu and bun oc. Both weren't too bad but it was the same broth, except one is with snails and one is with crab paste. Staff was very friendly.

Right at the entrance of Montréal's Chinatown
Luis C.

Eating pho in Montréal is a must, so we went to Chinatown. Parking was difficult to find as it was New Year's Day, but eventually it was found and we went in since it wasn't as packed as other places. We were seated quickly, and after perusing the menu, ordered the large number 14 which is rare beef and well done beef pho for $16. The soups came out quickly, I'd also ordered extra noodles for $3 and we ordered pork imperial rolls (what egg rolls are called here), and pork chop, egg, and rice platter. As can be seen, the soup was plentiful, very hot, and the broth was delicious as it should be. Plenty of tasty beef, and the noodles were soft and sticky. I put in hoisin, and not hot sauce which I'm not so into. I also ate the fish cake from the platter, which I've never had before but was really soft, not too fishy, and melted in my mouth. Service is pretty fast, considering they're nice, elderly gentleman and a lady here, but they definitely have many years in this business. This is a no frills place so don't expect anything fancy. I come for the food, not the ambiance. This is a real gem in Montréal Chinatown

Jacqueline V.

It's inevitable that my husband and I travel and seek out Vietnamese restaurants. There's so many styles and ways to make pho, and we are so interested to taste them all. The pho here was really delicious and I would really recommend this in the midst of Chinatown in Montreal! Would definitely recommend trying this place out, especially if you're in a major need for a hangover cure = pho. Don't forget to add hoison sauce to your pho!

Spring roll
Eric N.

Had lunch at Pho MC in chinatown location. The spring roll (pork, shrimp and vermicelli wrapped in rice paper) were freshly made pair with tasty peanuts sauce. The imperial is great, filled with chicken and shrimp, it comes with the usual fish sauce dipping but I prefer to pair it with peanuts sauces. Their pho are okay, too much MSG though and it made me super thirsty but taste not bad. They will need to work on their service, one of the waiter was completely on a cloud. The pho arrive but not the usual plate of chop suey and lime. So I asked him if he can bring me one, he said yes but instead of bring it to me, he prefer to clean 4 tables before bringing it to me. No smile, no apologies, rude.

Phnom Penh soup
Feifei L.

I really felt like a bowl of hot pho soup and decided to check this place out. The Phnom Penh soup that I ordered was ok. The broth was acceptable, and the shrimp were fresh, but it didn't strike me as especially tasty. I found the portion to be on the smaller side vs other Pho places that I've visited. The service was quick and warm.

Bun Cha Ha Noi - is also called Obama noodle because President Obama had it when he was in Vietnam. Besides the grilled pork, the hardest thing in my opinion is the sauce, which was good here. The only that bothered me is how small the portion is. We had to order extra meat for my daughter. Bun Dau Mam Tom - I have high expectation for a very authentic Vietnamese disk so I was not impressed with their Bun Dau Mam Tom. It normally comes with pork intestine. Where is my pork intestine? Haha Again the portion is also very small. Nem be which is similar to spring roll was also something we called at the end when everyone was still hungry. In my opinion, it is a bit expensive for the food and the portions are small.

The roll I thought was a bit chewy. Next came the Satay Beef ($12) which totally flavored the Pho. It was the best Pho I ever had but mind you I am no expert. They have a strange business model in that a small bowl is $11 and a large bowl is $12. It came out piping hot. I had to let it sit, as well as, blow on the broth to cool it down. The staff was tri-lingual. Imagine that! The food came out quick. It seems a lot of locals dine here. The restaurant is located in Chinatown. The street entrance is below ground level. The restaurant is somewhat dated and upkeep could be improved. The food is a 5 STAR in my opinion.

But briefly, we got a spring roll (I think it was the sprimp and chicken), a chicken dish (I think we got the half chicken), a pho dish and the grilled chicken and shrimp with salad and vermicelli. The spring rolls were good. Very crunchy wrapping, mixed with a fusion of veges, protein and vermicelli. The half chicken was my least favorite dish. I think it's an acquired taste, but the meat was tough to chew and the sauce was a quite tart. Combining all the factors mentioned above, it was a bit difficult to eat. The pho was good. The soup brough was warm, hearty and filling. The noodles were good too - very soft and easy to eat. The vermicelli dish was also good. Very standard protein and vege vermicelli dish.
