Le Petit Sao (Vieux Montréal)

Super endroit! La bouffe est tellement bonne et le staff super gentil! Très belle ambiance?

Extraordinaire. J'ai eu l'impression de me retrouver à nouveau dans un resto de HCM ville. M'a donné envie de retourner visiter le Viêt Nam. La cuisine était top (Bol Bûn miam! Le Pho génial) Et les serveuses étaient super gentilles.

Trendy place, service was very fast, but just average, one waitress was very friendly and the other didn't seem to care much. Food is good, although I wouldn't say it's very authentic. But the price are steep for the sizes of the portions. Even by adding an appetizer, the small portion of the pho would leave any normal adult hungry and the large size there would be a medium at best at any other pho restaurant. You are 100% paying for the location. The papaya salad is great tho.

Delicious, friendly, and quick! I tried the pho, as well as the pad pho bowl, and the fresh spring rolls. All were amazing.

Food was amazing. It wasn't cheap though. 2 meals, drink and tip was 60$. Strongly recommend the curry coco with chicken.

Hard to find a place with a good broth for the pho soup. This place did a good job. Walking distance from Centaur Theater!

J’y ai diné vendredi soir, serveuse super aimable et efficace. Cocktail et Banh mi exceptionnels.

Excellent moment au Petit Sao: j’ai commandé le bol curry coco, un délice merci encore à Baptiste pour ce service impeccable, très à l’écoute et dynamique! Ce qui est assez rare au service de nos jours je reviendrais

Totally loved the place! We had the Cha Bun Bowl, Pad Pho Salad as well as one Banh Mi and nothing disappointed. All food is delicious and prices are very fair. Will come here often for sure

This great place boasts a cozy and pink-themed interior. The prices are reasonable, and the food is truly delicious especially Pho. Their lemonades are particularly refreshing and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Petite place avec quelques tables de disponibles.
La nourriture était bonne malgré qu’il manquait de quoi sur le menu les 2 fois où j’y suis allé.
Service difficile, long et semblent manquer de staff donc la personne en salle est toute seule mais à l’air de faire aussi les livraisons qui viennent non stop et du dressage ou autre en cuisine donc pas trop là… 2e essai et on peut pas nous servir car pas de staff et la moitié de la carte pas disponible… Dommage…
Prix corrects surtout pour le vieux port.

Deuxième dîner dans le vieux Montréal et encore une fois tout était parfait: Service agréable et dynamique et les plats remplis de saveur. Limo et thé glacé maison un must!

This was my first time trying Pho and it was amazing. The place is too cute and cozy. I loved the Peach Iced Tea and traditional Vietnamese coffee. It’s a big bowl of Pho and the broth was delicious. It was so fulfilling. The deep fried wontons were tasty. The imperial rolls could be better but it was good enough.:)

Serving pho without beef (there’s no option to have the soup that is supposed to have beef with beef) and calling it pho is clearly exploiting the Vietnamese culture. Also, the waitresses were rude and not welcoming at all. Do not recommend.

Amazing take on traditional Vietnamese dishes eith a modern and slightly fusion twist. Great for lunch or dinner anytime!

Stopped in here on a whim with a friend for a late lunch. The service was efficient, and our food came out quickly. The tofu banh mi was so delicious. I would definitely return here again.

I went there to have lunch this morning, the food was great, the restaurant was full but the service was fast and the server really attentive and friendly.

If you want a restaurant with warm soup/pho and mushy nems.this place is for you. My overall view of the experience. Meh.soup was luke warm. Asked them to make it hotter.still warm.not hot. Gave it to my friend to eat. Would have been a soothing soup, but not if it isn't hot. The nems left much to be desired. When something is fried.the inner shell should not be mushy. Could not eat it all. The papaya salad was good. Service.meh.had to take my friend's water since the waitress was not too much around to ask for a water refill. She left a bottle with the table next to us. Not going back again.

I have no idea how anyone can rate this place highly. The food is incredibly bland, lacks flavor, quality is low. Would definitely not recommend!

Beau, bon, pas cher! Un trésor caché du vieux port. Nourriture copieuse, soignée et délicieuse! Et que dire des limonades. Un must. Merci!

Lieu petit à l'intérieur pour manger mais grands plats servis. C'était délicieux, du bon riz de la bonne cuisine saine avec des légumes. Ce qui est rare à Montréal. La sauce est particulièrement bonne. Laissez-vous conseiller par la cheffe.

What an awesome place to have a heartful meal near Notre dame. Loved the ambience, taste, price

Best Pho I have ever had! I am visiting Montreal and this discovery of this small restaurant has made my trip! They even have their own white lager beer!

C'était le premier restaurant que j'ai visité à Montréal et j'ai effectivement bien décidé. Les plats ici sont super frais, variés et pas trop chers pour la grande quantité de nourriture qu'on en donne. J'ai apprécié aussi qu'il y en avait des options végétariens. En gros, un resto formidable pour déjeuner!

We had lunch on the terrace. Fresh and delicious food. Lots of choices for vegans and non vegans alike.

Très dommage car j'adorais celui situé à pointe saint Charles.
Soupe qui ne goûte rien, salade de papaye très fade et rouleau printanier très décevant (la feuille de riz était croustillante et aucunement fraîche)

Ordering process was somewhat confusing, as no one was nearby. But, after ordering, we got our food very quickly. Staff was very accommodating and kind. As for the food, it was good

This restaurant was so good. The food was all delicious and can all be made vegetarian by swapping out meat for tofu. Great!

The pho was like chicken noodle soup from a drugstore. There was no seasoning. It's overpriced. There were just white people, maybe thats why its bad because they don't know the taste of it. The best I had in this restaurant is the water. It's aesthetic but not good, and it's bland. The sauce was not spicy enough; it was too sweet. They should hire people who know the vietnamese culture and food, not just some random people. The music was nice tho.

I love Vietnamese food, and while I wouldn’t say this is totally authentic it is very good. More of a a modern take, I’d say. The issue isn’t the flavour though; I had minor food poisoning once from this place (takeout) and felt “off” a previous time as well. I can’t say what it was for certain, but I do know it didn’t leave me feeling well.

Unfortunately, I’m going to have to go elsewhere for my Vietnamese food, or at least try a different location.

AWESOME Vietnamese restaurant! Such a great addition to the community. The owners are the best and sweetest people and the staff is always amazing!

De passage au vieux Montréal, je me suis arrêté manger dans ce restaurant par hasard. Une très bonne surprise! Le pho était délicieux, et le rapport qualité-prix y était! Je reviendrai sans aucun doute!

The only bit of taste there seemed to be in the whole place was the music and the pink walls. The Phở was almost cold when the noodles were overcooked (honestly it’s impressive to fail boiling noodles), it wasn’t seasoned and the broth tasted like mister noodle ramen. The spring rolls were greasy and don’t get me started on the sauce. All the cooks were white which would be perfectly fine if they at least knew what they were doing but they clearly don’t and never came into walking distance of a decent Phở.

Très bonne expérience au petit Sao que je recommande vivement!
Pour ma part j’ai pris une soupe pho poulet grillé et des rouleaux de printemps tofu grillé et avocats, copieux et je ne regrette pas mon choix! Moi j’y retournerai sans faute

Meilleur service que j’ai eu depuis longtemps. La soupe est tellement bonne aussi je recommande à tous le monde qui aime le confort food.

J’ai testé aujourd’hui un petit restaurant dans le vieux Montréal, tout était parfait:
Service clean et cuisine savoureuse
J ai pris un pho au poulet et des spring rolls au tofu:
On sent que c est fait maison avec coeur ️
Un lunch de qualité à prix raisonnable
On se revoit sans faute à mon prochain passage dans le centre
