Soleil de Saigon — Restaurant in Montreal

Tucked away in the heart of Montreal’s Plateau, Soleil de Saigon delivers the kind of comforting, flavorful Vietnamese food that lingers in your memory long after the last bite.

Their crispy duck noodle soup is an absolute standout. The duck arrives perfectly crisped on the outside yet tender and juicy inside, resting in a fragrant, clear broth that’s rich without being heavy. The noodles soak up just enough of that savory depth, and the garnish of fresh herbs, fried garlic, and onions brings everything to life. It’s the kind of bowl that makes you slow down and savor every spoonful.

Equally impressive are their vermicelli beef bowls. The beef is marinated to perfection, grilled until smoky and tender, and served over light, fluffy vermicelli with crisp vegetables and herbs. A drizzle of their house-made fish sauce ties it all together with a tangy-sweet kick that keeps you reaching for another bite.

Easily the worst soup I've ever had at any restaurant. It was so bad I didn't want to waste my appetite on it and left to go eat...

I felt like having a Banh mi, decided to try this place out. Very friendly staff. I ordered the grilled beef one. Came to about 11$ tax and tip in. The taste was spot on but the filling was not there. Very little beef and ingredients inside. You would need 2 to fill you up. I also checked out the prices of their sauces and produce, and it was a 100% mark up of their competitors downtown. Its a good place for amateurs of viet food, but better bang for your...
