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!

Here on vacation in Quebec & looking for Vietnamese food. We choose the place for the name'Gao''Rice' so cute. But would definitely come back for the food, services & environment. Very clean, adorable & attentive services. The picture doesn't do it justice. The food was excellent & authentic Vietnamese food. We ordered the beef pho & bun cha gio (vermicelli eggroll with beef). Definitely would come back when we visit Quebec again.

We ordered the Beef Pho & the Rice Vermicelli with Shrimp, both were delicious! The Vietnamese iced coffee was also very good. A great spot for authentic flavors in Quebec. Definitely worth a visit!

From the moment we walked in, the experience at this Vietnamese restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. The service was incredibly attentive & warm - you truly feel like a valued guest, not just another table. The staff were personable, engaging, & genuinely passionate about the food they serve.

& speaking of the food - wow. Every dish was a perfect balance of flavor, freshness, & authenticity. From the richly aromatic pho to the crisp, flavorful spring rolls, everything was clearly made with care & top-quality ingredients. The seasoning was spot on, the presentation was beautiful, & portions generous without being overwhelming.

This is the kind of place you want to return to again & again - not just for the incredible food, but for the people who make the entire experience so memorable. A must-visit if you're anywhere near Quebec & love Vietnamese cuisine done right.

Highly recommended!

The food was authentic & tasted delicious. We had pho & lemongrass pork chops with rice, as well as a Mi-Quang noodle soup, pork dumplings & a Vietnamese iced coffee. The price was reasonable & the food came quickly. Total was close to $20 per person. We would come again.

It's such a cute place for an authentic vietnamese place around Quebec City! I love everything in their menu, mainly their Pho. It tasted & smelled amazing! The noodles & the meat where perfect. I love that have bubble tea & Chè (vietnamese coconut dessert). & it's also such a cute place! I will definitely come back!
