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!"

The food tastes like my (Laotian) mom's cooking, so I was definitely satisfied with authentic Lao cuisine. We were lucky to be serviced by the person who seemed in charge of training the other waitresses, so the service was great.View more

Absolutely awesome place! Terrace is fantastic, looks absolutely dreamy with lights in the evening & they even provide blankets so you don't feel cold. You can bring your own wine too. Food was top notch, such beautiful plates for only 20$, you'd think you are at the fancy place with $$$. Atmosphere was just surreal, SO romantic, perfect place for a date or just a meal you'll never forget.View more

Food was nice (the muu heng mao was so good) & the service was friendly but kitchen forgot part of our order. The outdoor terrace looked very nice but was packed so we were sat inside, unfortunately the window we were sat in front of was covered with flies (inside)View more

This place is a gem! It's my second time here in the last month, & I'll go back before I leave for sure! The food is incredible, the service is outstanding, the prices are decent, the place looks beautiful (especially the terrace in the back) & it's a bring your own wine. The hostess, Elsa, was so welcoming & caring. She even brought us blankets in case we were cold at the terrace because it was a cold evening. If you are not sure what to order, they have a tasting menu with many different items & the quantities are perfect. I also strongly recommend the Khao Poon, the meatballs & the calamari!View more

Came to Montreal on vacation. Tried this place by sheer chance. We trusted the waitresses suggestions for what to get. Food was great. Service was even better. No liquor licence when we were here. So we across the street to the Couche Tard to get drinks to have with dinner (as suggested by waitress).View more

Belle terrasse, superbe serveuse agréable & à l'écoute, les plats sont frais & cuisinés, mais pour le riz par contre, 7$ dans un petit sachet en plastique c'est pas possible, même si je sais que c'est traditionnel.View more

I came with a group so we decided to order many dishes to share among us. The Laap is a fresh herb salad. The French shallots are so pungent, they overpower the taste of the herbs. So I preferred the papaya salad which was sweeter. The vegan meatballs taste & feel like real meat! They bring you a container of crushed peanuts to add on your dishes if you need. My mistake is I didn't asked if the Pina colada was vegan. It came with whipped cream on top. During summer, dining at the terrasse is a must! However, it was a bit incommodating when somebody smoking was passing by, since the terrace is in the backyard of the restaurant.View more

Atendimento muito bom, ambiente super aconchegante e comida muito saborosa. fois a primeira vez que comi uma comida laosiana, entao nao sei dizer se eles seguem fielmente, porém a comida é muito bem feita e saborosa, e há opções vegetarianas e sem glúten. Me chamou à atençao o fato de eles colocarem no cardápio as recomendações da chef e também informações sobre restrições alimentares de uma maneira diferenciada.View more
