Sao Mai Restaurant — Restaurant in Yigo Municipality

Fantastic Vietnamese food.

Ok Edit 7 months later because i happen to live literally 100 yrds from this place....the staff has changed. The cooks have changed. The food has changed. I have been ordering the same exact thing for over 6 months. Shrimp with mushrooms....at first it mostly shrimp, then mushrooms (15 shrimp, 13 mushrooms) great food. Great price.....steadily...steadily declining until today when i order shrimp with mushrooms adding extra shrimp adding extra mushrooms......i get home after paying $30 for me and my wifes meals (she is a vegetarian, nothing extra ordered...so the charged me extra..extra..) i had 4 small shrimp with the tails on....and 3 slices of Mushroom.... no peppers. No nothing....and please realise i tip on the average for our usual $24 meal i round the bill up to $30 for take out food.....Today i tipped $10....

So my advice is find another place, declining food quality and quantity. Poor to awful service. If you are on Andersen I know its close but honestly...just drive a mile or two further....

Sao Mai Vietnamese.... oh my, I had such high hopes 😓. Went there for lunch expecting to get some Pho or a nice Banh Mi, not offered on the menu. I asked the waitress if there was a different menu for the Vietnamese food, she said "No this is all we have, the owner is Chinese so that's why we offer Chinese food. The closest thing to Vietnamese food we have is our soups, they are sort of like Pho". Unfortunately the Chinese food was the standard Americanized junk we have in the states.

Sigh, we got lumpia... it was ok expected more given it's a staple on the island. We got lemongrass chicken, tasted like the chicken was freezer burned. Also had the noodle combination plate which had an overwhelming beef broth flavor.

Was really hoping for a great place just...

Avoid this place! There are better options nearby.

I ordered the salt and pepper pork chop for my dying mother in the hospital. When I I asked the waitress if they could cut it up to small pieces for someone who has a hard time chewing. She acted as if it was an odd request.

I was furious to find that someone, probably a cook, decided to cut mostly bones into tiny shards then batter it up and fry it. This injured my mother after she bit into the first piece. It was already hard to find something she wanted to eat and this made her lose her appetite.

Whoever did this made an absolutely evil decision. I regret going there that day and giving them a large tip for accomodating the request. In hindsight, I should have went to Michelle's...
