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.
beautifully decorated restaurant The staff is kind but lacks attention to service We were seated & it took almost 15 mins before we got served water or asked if we wanted to start with something Took us another 10 mins of us waiving at waiters to get someone to notice us & ask for a dessert The food was good but not the best vietnamiese out there Pho soup was too salty We had a decent experience but most likely wont be back Lastly the pillows on the bench need to be washed - very dirty
The pho took more than 30 mins to arrive. It was New Year's Day but looking at the review it might not have anything to do with the date. Restaurant seems to have a lot of takeout orders. The interior was nice but the food was just ok that is totally not worth the wait.
I went there twice, I got the General Sao & the Curry chicken, both very good & generous portions I don't remember the prices tho. The website was outdated when I went, it said it was a bring your own alcohol restaurant but it isn't anymore so a small disappointment on that point when I went there.

Très bonne cuisine si vous voulez mangés un Phò ou un bol repas. Les portions sont généreuses & les plats ont du goût. Les rouleaux de printemps par contre la dernière fois que j'y ai été était fait d'avance, la texture des vermicelles étaient pas super. Je prends toujours la soupe Bún bò Huế Épicé qui est super. Le service est impeccable à chaque fois. Par contre la facturation après le repas se fait au comptoir & c'est souvent problématique & très long, faudrait pensé à améliorer le tout. Un des incontournables pour nous maintenant !
The dining experience at Sao Sao was truly exceptional. From the moment we entered, the welcoming atmosphere & attentive staff made us feel right at home. The menu offered a delightful selection of dishes, each expertly crafted with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every bite was delightful, & I can't wait to return to Sao Sao to explore more of their delicious creations. Highly recommended indeed!
Super bon petit resto. Portions plus que raisonnables, les prix sont corrects & la bouffe est délicieuse. Nous avons choisi le bol bùn & la soupe pho. Les nems aussi sont délicieux.
