Overall, reviews of Presotea note that the tea is as good as ever, but waiting times are frequently long and service can be inconsistent. Some customers order through the app to reduce the workload for cashiers, only to see mobile orders canceled to prioritize the in store queue.

Reviews describe Restaurant Hà as a place with a friendly and attentive staff and a lively atmosphere, where the food is generally tasty and the signature tea adds a nice touch, and several diners say they would return; however, experiences are not uniform, with some notes about wait times and dishes that felt inconsistent. The pad thai receives mixed verdicts, with some praising it as flavorful while others compare it to a sambal soup or mention an unappreciated spice surcharge on the receipt. The chicken citronelle with vermicelli is described by some as a collection of ingredients rather than a cohesive dish and portions can feel light, and the ba sandwich is called tasteless and unbalanced by at least one reviewer. Despite these caveats, Restaurant Hà is seen as a solid option in Montreal by many patrons, valued for flavor and warmth and repeatedly cited as worth returning to when in town.View restaurant profile

Overall, reviews highlight Petit Sao as a fresh, flavorful spot with a cozy, modern vibe and friendly staff. The lunch box is praised as a great value, with enough food for two including a large banh mi, a Saigon salad, and crunchy shrimp chips, while the litchi lemonade is noted as refreshing. Tofu banh mi picnic basket and shrimp chips are popular, with the shrimp chips particularly crunchy. Desserts like che thai are tasty, though one note mentions it lacks jackfruit and includes pandan layered cake instead. Grilled Chicken Banh Mi is tasty but saucy to the point of messiness, though overall it is enjoyable. The salad is described as substantial and refreshing, not just raw bean sprouts. The Atwater Market location can be busy, but that is a market setting rather than a fault of Petit Sao. Overall, the experience is consistently positive, with fresh, flavorful, well presented food and a cozy, welcoming vibe that earns strong recommendations.View restaurant profile
