Excellente bouffe, j'ai bien aimé le pad thai accompagné d'une soupe en entrée.

Absolutely amazing place! I've been eating at Cafe Saigon since i was a baby & it has never disappointed. The owners & the staff are so friendly & kind & the food has never let me down. It is so rare nowadays to find a place that offers great meals & generous portions at such an affordable price! I highly recommend the soupe tonkinoise or the soupe satay. Go Flyers!!

The server was super nice. Satay soup wasexcellent. Calamari dish + 2 chicken skewers dish were terrible, way way too salty. To give you an idea, i drank 2 bottles of water.

Un des meilleurs restos Vietnamiens à Montréal, une institution. La soupe saté vaut le détour ainsi que le menu riche en saveurs. Service courtois, ambiance chaleureuse.

I said to give it a try & don't expect much . It turns out amazing experience ! The service is super friendly ! The food is excellent ! I got a combo A , a sate soup , a dumpling , ..

Je fréquente le Café Saigon depuis une trentaine d'année. Vers 18 ans, lorsque j'ai connue le restaurant, j'ai été conquis par les rouleaux impériaux, la soupe tonkinoise au boeuf saignant & la soupe Saïgonnaise qui n'était pas sur le menu mais que la propriétaire m'avais fait essayer un jour que je ne savais pas quoi commander & que je voulais quelques chose de nouveau (boulions au saté avec tomates, ananas, céleries, poulet & crevettes; délirant de saveur).

Ces expériences ont mis la barre très haute pour moi mais je ne le savais pas. Je m'en suis rendu compte après quelques années parce que tous les autres restaurant Vietnamiens me décevait. Surtout leurs rouleaux impériaux.

C'est un resto qui ne paye pas de mime mais qui sert la meilleure cuisine vietnamienne de Montréal. (Le fils a reprit le resto il y a quelques années & c'est toujours aussi bon avec une offre Thaï maintenant.)

This is definetely a place to avoid. The tonkinoise soupe had no flavor. May as well have payed for a bottle of water & it would be more satisfying . Worst viet food ever.
