The food is excellent with authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, & generous portion of meat. The place is clean & nicely designed. The owner is very friendly; he even spent time playing games with the kid & gave her a little snack as reward. Very satisfied & highly recommend.

Vietnamese food review from a Viet. Found this little gem just outside the walls of old Quebec. Authentic pho taste, super pleasant staff, & charming atmosphere. The pho reminds me of having pho from mom or in Vietnam.

We had a wonderful experience at Gao in Quebec City! The staff & owner were incredibly kind & took the time to share the restaurant's history, which made our visit feel special.

The owner was especially great with our children, even teaching them a fun game of four-square tic-tac-toe - they loved it! The food was delicious & truly authentic Vietnamese cuisine. My kids had the beef pho, my husband had the vermicelli (no picture), & I had the Bo kho with vermicelli noodles 👌

A warm, memorable experience - we'll definitely be back next time we're in QC!
