Review Summary

Le Petit Sao is described as a favorite, affordable spot with tasty Vietnamese fare, a bright, cozy atmosphere, and friendly, efficient service. Diners highlight generous portions, fresh ingredients, and a menu that makes vegan options easy, making it a reliable go to for lunch or takeout. The ambiance is often noted as warm and relaxing, with a calm, sunny dining room that suits a casual meal, while some visits are marked by inconsistent welcome and a less polished front of house, including comments about staff attire and demeanor on occasion. Yet the food remains praised for quality, with flavors that feel balanced and comforting, and several reviewers call the place among the best Vietnamese spots in town. Overall, Le Petit Sao comes across as a beloved local favorite for good value, flavorful dishes, and a cozy vibe that keeps people coming back.

I tried the grilled chicken pho. The broth was very salty & didn't have any depth at all, unlike authentic Vietnamese pho. We could tell the restaurant is more geared toward a non-asian, more Quebecois clientele.

The pho taste was very bland. Just noodles & chicken. Barely anything else. 20$ is really not worth it. The prices for other items were ridiculous.

Truly a good restaurant I never really leave reviews of any type, but this one was good, the chicken curry coco & the pad pho are a must try included the wonton had a unique flavor, the service was truly excellent.

Highly recommend the Chicken Curry Coco. The cool vegetables complement the hot rice & Curry chicken wonderfully. Good portion sizes. The Fried Wontons are also recommended.

The server was attentive & polite. A great experience.

The decor & colour scheme is bright without assaulting the eyes & sets it apart from many other locations.

I am a resident of Pointe St-Charles for some time now & while I love to encourage local establishments, when I can, I don't always think of writing a review. That is, till now.

Today, I had the pleasure of dining with out of town guests at Le Petit Sao. I never had grilled chicken in a soup until today & I loved it. The whole soup from broth/meat to noodles was delicious. The soup & presentation of my friends' orders enticed me to try their Imperial rolls, which of course were also delicious.

But what equally impressed me is the highly professional, courteous service from the staff & incidentally Troy who made it a great experience. I will be returning for other items on the menu & for the monetary & savory value of the meal.

Excellent restaurant & service, you certainly won't regret it.
