Lovely servers but unfortunately food isn't up to Vietnamese standards. Maybe suitable for the local or westerners, but not suitable for the Asian taste buds, especially for the Vietnamese. We tried Ph? Special, Bò Kho with bread, & C?m S??n. Ph? meat is low quality, the broth is okay. Bò Kho doesn't taste right & using the cheap part of the beef, tough, the bread isn't French quality. C?m s??n pork chop is tough & dry. Once again, nice people but unfortunately food isn't there yet.

G?o was a wonderful find during our first trip to Quebec City! We ordered the beef Pho & Mì Qu?ng, & both were absolutely delicious. The restaurant was clean with a cozy & welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Quebec City!

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!

Had BBQ pho soup, rice paper spring roll, beef BBQ skewers & it was all super flavorless. I've been to a lot of Vietnamese restaurants & have never seen a fuchsia coloured piece of meat. The pho broth was watery & didn't taste rich or have any flavour depth. Saw the high reviews & had high hopes but was very disappointed.
