Nuns' Island · Verdun · bring your own wine
Vietnamese restaurant on Nuns' Island
This is where Le Petit Sao was born in 2013, in the Le Village shopping centre on Place du Commerce. A neighbourhood counter where people come for a pho, a banh mi or a bún bowl, bottle under the arm.
Why people come back
The original, neighbourhood edition
Bring your own wine, no reservations: you walk in, sit down, order. At lunch, people who work on the island take the lunch menu, a veggie imperial roll and a large chicken or vegetable pho for 17.95 $. In the evening, neighbourhood families come for the bowls.
The Bol de l'Île was born here: grilled chicken, avocado, edamame, fried shallots, roasted peanuts and a creamy, lightly spicy mango sauce, created with our customers for the restaurant's 7th birthday. Banh mi (grilled chicken, tofu and avocado, lemongrass pork) are 13.50 $ and the large chicken pho is 17.50 $.
For neighbours in Verdun, Pointe-Saint-Charles and LaSalle, it is the closest Petit Sao after rue Centre. Free parking at the shopping centre, online ordering for take-out.
