About

Sabaidee! Welcome to Sep Lai! We serve traditional Laotian food using many local ingredients to create unique and authentic dishes. As is the norm in Laos, all our dishes are made to be shared! Although you may find similarities with other Southeast Asian dishes such as Thai or Vietnamese dishes, Lao cuisine is a distinct cuisine with its own complex and exciting flavors. Full of fresh herbs, raw vegetables, flavorful meats and always accompanied by a basket of sticky rice, we are proud to share this cuisine with everyone, including vegans, vegetarians and those sensitive to gluten! We hope that the dishes of our parents and grandparents will inspire you with the same comfort and joy as they do us, and that you will exclaim: "Sep lai! It was delicious!"

Review Summary

Sep Lai is widely appreciated as a cozy, welcoming gem in the neighborhood, celebrated for its authentic and flavorful Laotian cuisine. Many guests enjoy the intimate atmosphere and the beautiful backyard terrace, which provides a perfect setting for sharing a variety of fresh, well-presented dishes. The tasting menu is frequently highlighted as a fantastic way to explore the diverse textures and bold, aromatic spices of the food, with popular items including the Khao Poon soup, crispy Nem Khao, and the pandan crème brûlée. While experiences with service speeds and dish seasoning can vary, many diners value the thoughtful, friendly staff and the convenience of the bring-your-own-wine policy, making it a popular destination for casual gatherings and group events.

Delicious food, friendly staff. Tons of gluten free options. The sharing platter is highly recommended you get to try a bit of everything. The patio is super nice with sturdy tables & much bigger than you would expect. They are only open for a few hours each day so I suggest you reserve.

Cute little restaurant next to canal Lachine. Great for summer days because of their terrace.

We had the discovery menu at 52$ per person which gets served in 3 setting. I really liked the appetizers & dessert but some of the main dish had too much onions in it. (for my taste)
I also got the Pina colada which was great.(not too sweet)

I recommend this place to you if you are in the point saint charles area & would like to try something new!

Super service. Musique agréable. Délicieux.

Nous avons pris les options véganes: Salade de papaye, salade d'herbes & champignons, boulettes Beyond meat à la citronelle, & tofu frit avec sauce au tamarin.

Ces quatres plats ont été suffisants pour nourrir deux personnes.

Délicieux restaurant, j'ai essayé le kua mee avec extra champignons avec un pudding de taro au tapioca & j'ai adoré! Il y a une jolie terasse que j'y irais bien quand il fera plus chaud. Je recommande de réserver si vous êtes 2 & plus
