Le Petit Sao

Overall, the Vietnamese food here is okay, but definitely not authentic. We tried both the pork and chicken bowls. The meat was good, but the fish sauce didn’t have much flavor, which kind of ruined the dish. Wouldn’t recommend the iced coffee—it’s nothing like Vietnamese coffee. And $6.50 for a regular filter coffee? That’s just too much. Also, the service is not very good. I had to remind them three times for extra napkins

Just landed and working my way to my hotel. Needed a bowl of Pho to warm up my senses. French and Vietnamese cuisine go hand in hand right? Found this place on google and saw some great reviews. Great decor but unfortunately I think the food fell short. Noodles were not throughly cooked. Size was a little small in comparison to the pricing. Broth was “eh”. Coffee was sort of bland. I’m pretty critical coming from Vancouver. Having a Hispanic and white girl serving me sort of trippy though. This area is predominantly more local Montrealers as I saw a lot coming in while I was leaving. Like I said, I rate compared to pricing. Will check out downtown / Chinatown this week to see what else I can find. Oh another thing, upon paying, I asked to borrow a plug for 5 minutes to charge my phone to call an Uber. Completely out of juice from the long flight. Could overhear the boss who declined. Great start to my Montreal trip! This has nothing to do with the food rating though. Lived in Vietnam and Pho it up all over the world.

Food was ok. The meat was not very fresh in the pho, almost slimey. We had it delivered and the tops of both our soups' broth containers were off and the broth was delivered partly just... In a bag... It was pretty cold when it arrived.

I had high expectations for this place, but it was a complete letdown. First off, the food was way too expensive for what you get. The portions were small, and the quality was mediocre at best—definitely not worth the price. The pho tasted very old and was cold when served, the taste was meh 🫤 and expensive for what it is. The restaurant itself wasn’t well-maintained. The toilet was disgusting—dirty floors, a bad smell, and toilet paper scattered everywhere. It was clear that no one was checking or cleaning it regularly. The service was just as bad. The staff were obviously part-time students with no hospitality experience. They were rude, loud, and completely unprofessional, chatting and laughing amongst themselves instead of attending to customers. It felt like they had no idea what they were doing, and they certainly didn’t care. Overall, this was a terrible experience. Overpriced food, poor hygiene, and awful service. Definitely wouldn’t recommend.

A lovely experience with kind service. The bowls are huge and delicious. Shrimp chips were not what I had expected, but very satisfying. The fried wontons are a great appetizer come with a sweet sauce. Perfect side to a rich bowl of pho! Jasmin iced tea is refreshing and sweet! The limo jade drink has a particular taste, great if you like coconut and grass.

We took holidays menu which was a degustation menu. Everything was DELICIOUS! Specially the dessert. Quantity was more than enough and the staffs very nice. Plus it's BYOW

Very good food. Large portions (you can take a doggy bag). Reasonable prices.

My go-to spot for the BEST grilled chicken pho!👌💯🔥
