About us

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!"

We were group of 11 so we had the tasting menu. Service was quite good. The food was very tasty, although the warm dishes, especially the Nem Khao, were very salty. The soup was amazing.View more

The place is beautiful, the first taste of the food was delicious lots of flavours however the food was extremely salty to the point that I couldn't eat most of it. I ordered 4 different dishes, each had its unique taste but the amount of salt spoiled the experience. Once we got the food the waitress never came back to ask how we were, so we didn't get a chance to tell her about it. We ordered 4 meals 1 was not salty, the second one was salty but we were able to eat it because of the mixture of the vegetables but the other 2 none of us could eat.View more

This is our go-to place in PSC for a nice terrasse with good food. We had some of their salads (papaya & mango) as it was a hot hot day & it was refreshing. The skewers are to die for & a must! Their spring rolls were also delicious & very generous in portions. Definitely recommend for a summer eat with a quiet terrasse at the back. It is also bring your own wine!View more

Quelle belle soirée avons-nous passée pour notre première fois chez Sep Lai! Le service a été attentionné, chaleureux & sympathique, les plats sont arrivés dans un délai tout à fait raisonnable malgré un achalandage hors du commun en ce mardi, & tout était savoureux & raffiné. Une très belle découverte.

Bémols: le bruit & la chaleur, explicables par l'achalandage & la température extérieure.View more

I was really excited to try Sep Lai for my first taste of Laotian food-& while the food itself was delicious, the overall experience left a lot to be desired.

We waited over an hour to place our order, even after telling the waitress multiple times that we were ready. When the food finally started arriving, it came in waves-so people at our table were eating at totally different times. Some were still waiting while others had already finished, which made things pretty awkward.

I had the dried meat with a super tasty sauce, the chicken spring roll, & the soup. All of it was genuinely delicious, & I was very happily surprised.

The biggest downside: we were seated on the back terrace, right next to a pile of garbage that smelled strongly of dead fish & cat litter. It was disgusting. We had to step away several times because the stench was unbearable. That really ruined the vibe.

Food was great-but bad service & a gross setting made it hard to enjoy.View more

Excellent experience at Sep Lai. We were 3 & ordered 4 dishes & they were good potion. All of them were very good & nicely presented. The waitress was nice & friendly & we loved the terrace. It is really great to be able to bring our own wine or beer. I will go back.View more

Assez déçu ce soir de l'ensemble du restaurant mais plus particulièrement de la serveuse qui ne fait guère d'effort pour être sympathique. Service très ordinaire. Côté bouffe c'était bien mais pas sur la coche comme d'habitude. Bref vivement d'être servie par la serveuse plus sympathique & souriante.View more

Great neighborhood treasure ...creative, delicious Laotian cuisine. Dinner last night was so good I thanked the chef. Everything she prepared was delicious & fresh, with great combinations of flavors. The tapioca & taro pudding with coconut cream & black sesame seeds is one of the best desserts I've ever had. Charming terrace out back in the summer.View more

Une magnifique terrasse où les soirées d'été sont festives & agréables. La cuisine magnifiquement réalisée avec des ingrédients très frais & des goûts hyper satisfaisants.
Une bien belle soirée avec, ensuite, le besoin d'y retourner encore 😊View more

Nous avons visité ce petit restaurant à plusieurs reprises, & à chaque fois, c'est toujours la même qualité, la même ambiance, pour un prix très abordable. Le menu est simple mais tout ce qu'on y trouve est de qualité. La terrasse à l'arrière est vraiment superbe & la déco générale à l'intérieur est trèscoquette également. Il s'agit de spécialités laotiennes, mais rien de trop extravagant pour le néophyte. Bref, nous recommandons. En plus, c'est un apportez votre vin, mais on n'y trouve plusieurs options sans alcool au menu pas très cher, & également de qualité.View more

They have a very cute yard. We didn't sit in the yard because it was supposed to rain but we checked it out after. It was really cute. The food was good. I liked the soup with meat & noodle better (the non creamy one). The beef skewer was good too. Not a big fan of the steam sticky rice tho. Overall we had a good time there!View more

The food was delicious & the service was prompt & helpful, the decor was great, my only gripe is that the prices for the appetizers on the printed menu were not the same as what was written online, they were $1 more.View more
