SAO SAO is a warm and friendly "Bring your own wine" Vietnamese family restaurant that is open for over 10 years in Brossard. Each roll, broth, sauce, skewer is prepared and made with love by our Mama Thi loyal to the traditions and the kitchen for all these years.
Reviewers describe Sao Sao as a popular, casual Vietnamese spot known for generous, fresh dishes and friendly service, with the pho and grilled chicken pho repeatedly highlighted as excellent and the vibe described as warm, lively, and family friendly or good for a date night. The menu offers a wide range of bowls and entrées at a solid value, with large portions and fresh vegetables, and several guests say the takeout options are convenient and that the staff are quick and attentive in normal hours. However, a minority note inconsistencies such as slower service during peak times, occasional lapses in courtesy, and some dishes not meeting expectations—one or two reports of greasy broth, undercooked noodles, or cold deliveries. Reservations are sometimes advised during busy periods, and parking can be tricky near certain locations. Overall, Sao Sao comes across as a dependable favorite for many diners, with frequent praise for flavor and hospitality and only a few caveats about consistency.
Tout de suite en rentrant, l'odeur de bonne soupe nous envahie. Le service est rapide & courtois (& en français!). Les rouleaux impériaux & de printemps sont délicieux & la tonkinoise m'a ravi. Excellent choix & peu dispendieux.

Service was unequal. We got three different waiters during the course of our dinner, with one of them forgetting 1 out of 3 orders of dessert & 2 orders of coffee. Food was very good though, & this is probably the only reason we would return to Sao Sa
Unfortunately, very disappointed. We ordered one meal to share since we just wanted to break our hunger. Waiter seemed offended & we were rushed. The place was not even full, it's not like we were taking profit out of their hands by sharing a meal & using a table(20% full). It was unfortunately a very unpleasant experience.
Étant paresseux de cuisiner, mon conjoint & moi avons décidé de commander pour emporter.
Rouleaux impériaux : blend
Salade de papaye : encore plus blend que les rouleaux & servi avec une mixture de sauce soya avec quelque chose d'autre, très très ordinaire
Grillade de poulet & riz : correct mais nous en avons vu mieux
Pho avec poulet grillé : Il n'y avait tellement pas de viande, c'était ridicule. Il y avait à peine deux doigts de lanières tranchées ultra méga minces... Le bouillon était tellement salé que les pierres au rein allaient pousser d'une minute à l'autre.
Honnêtement, pour ce take-out autour de 35$, ce ne fût vraiment pas la peine & grosse déception. Ce n'est pas la première fois que je mange du vietnamien & celui-ci fait plus que honte à l'authencitié des plats vietnamiens!
