Review from Sandra T.

Oooh la la ... fantastique!!!
Heard from the locals that this is THE place to go for Bo 7 Mon (7 Beef Dishes) and they were all right!
My husband, my aunt, my mom, and I all agree that this is the best place for Bo 7 Mon. We've never experienced better restaurant grade Bo 7 Mon ... ever!!!!
All the beef dishes were flavourful and tender; and prepared in quite a refined way.
A lot of veggies - lettuce, mint, basil, carrots, pickled daikon radish, cucumber, other leaf herbs I don't know the name of - are included but there is the option of ordering extra (for a charge) if you run out.
The rice paper was amazing ... thin and never tore?! I want to know the brand of that rice paper!!!!
One of the highlights of the meal was the dipping sauce ... OMG ... it is a shrimp/ anchovy based sauce called mam nem. It is probably the best mam nem I've ever tried. It was little spicy and just perfect ... with bits of crushed pineapple ... oh YUM!!!!!
No vermicelli noodles were included - that would be extra if you so require.
The restaurant itself is gorgeous - not your stereotypical Vietnamese restaurant (sorry stereotypical Vietnamese restaurants). High loft like ceilings, dark wood, modern decor, glass ... beautiful! There was definitely an upscale vibe.
Cost of the Bo 7 Mon is $42/ 2 people.
I wasn't stuffed silly but left pleasantly satisfied.
p.s. - No Highchairs
p.p.s - Located right beside a tattoo heavy, piercing heavy, gothish bar
p.p.p.s - Right across the street is a male strip club and a place to buy Beaver Tail. -

If you are Vietnamese or appreciate Vietnamese food, and are looking for Bo Bay Mon (7 Courses of Beef), this is the best place in the Montreal Metro area to get it.
It may not be as good as Westminster's Little Saigon or San Jose, but for Montreal, it is the best. This on recommendation of the Vietnamese locals.
If you like Beef and Vietnamese food, this is the choice for you. If you have never had this 7 course meal wich is becoming very popular on the West Coast of the US, check it out, or bring a Viet friend to show you the ropes on how to eat each course.Listed in: Wanugee! Vietnamese, Wanugee! Quebec

One of the first Vietnamese restaurant in Montreal. I have been going there for nearly 30 years. Home of my favorites "imperial rolls" anywhere
