We got to the restaurant 1.5 hours before closing. They still had several customers left so it was still pretty busy. We ordered the banh xeo with pork, fried rice, and the lamb ribs.

The ribs were cooked perfectly and whatever sauce or seasoning they used was just fantastic. The staff were definitely busy running around but they didn't make us wait too long to order.

You're browsing for a…read moreplace to go to dinner, hundreds of Thai, Italian, Japanese and Chinese places come up, but why not treat your taste buds to a different culinary sensation. Saigon Bay Vietnamese Cuisine is a humble restaurant, located in the centre of a not so humble area. Oxford street is known for it ability to host killer parties, sweet nightclubs and plenty of bars to get in touch with your 'gay' side. But if a big night is not what you are looking for, do not let this restaurants setting deter you from a meal that your stomach will thank you for. If you're looking for a meal you won't be cooking up yourself at home, this is the place to go. Great chefs cook up exotic and authentic food that they refer to as "the nouvelle cuisine of Asia." They serve up delicious meat and seafood dishes and wonderful vegetarian meals that do not skimp out on any of the flavorings. If you're planning on going with a few friends or just looking for a table for two, there are a lot of dishes to share. If you're like me and think to yourself after looking at the menu "there is no way I can choose one dish!", this is the perfect solution. Grab a few entrees, salads and platters and get a taste of everything this place has to offer. Saigon Bay has been open for more than 15 years and has established a name for itself in the Darlinghurst area. It does not boast a modern and decorated interior but it is homely, warm and friendly. This just adds to the authenticity and allows the food tospeak for itself. A little bit about the food; Vietnamese food does not shy away from rice and legumes and the dishes have a hefty supply of delicious vegetables, some of which you won't find in your average supermarket. The use of salt and oil is kept to a minimal, the flavorings largely come from fresh and dried herbs that season the food in a healthy and tasty way. There are well priced banquets that serve a minimum of four people and all other meals are reasonably priced for dinner, unfortunately no lunch time special deals. It is not open for lunch on weekends and it is recommended you book a table a couple of days in advance due it's popularity, especially Friday and Saturday nights. They are open until 11 pm all week and you can B.Y.O. Other nifty details; they home deliver, takeaway is available, they are renowned for their sizzling dishes, e.g. sizzling duck, the chefs specials are a must try.

Besides not opening the store at 12pm as advertised, the quality of the food is what I'm most disappointed in. I've had my fair share of pho and PHO REAL, this was my worst experience. Pho which is a vietnamese cuisine that is cooked with rice noodles, a few herbs, and a choice of meat, really depends on the flavor of the broth. However, the broth here tasted like water and was salted at best. I used hoisin sauce to add flavor. The few cilantro pieces which were cut sooo tiny that you couldn't even tell if they were fresh or not, tasted terrible. The bean sprouts were already soaking in the broth and the beef was already chewy. I don't even want to describe the Asian meatballs that were added. I didn't even touch it because you never know what random cuts of meat or additives are put into the meatball. In addition, while there were only a few other customers, only the chef/owner was available. Toward the end of my dining, another employee arrived at which point I asked for water. I was never even asked what I wanted to drink. I do not recommend coming here.

Its not close to my work, about a 15-20 minute walk from the CBD, but figured the walk would be nice and it'd be a bit of exercise. So in the span of maybe two months, I ordered these rolls for lunch. First tried the veggie ham roll, which was really good. They have the option of brown or white bread and they put loads of coriander, carrots and chilies that are delicious but burn your mouth. The staff is super friendly and if you call ahead you can get the roll pretty quick. It does get busy around lunch time. I tried the chicken roll - yummy, the traditional vietnamese pork roll, also very tasty and the recovery roll - which is a bit "australianized" as it is a chicken breast with avocado. It's a very "subway" kind of sandwich, but they do add the coriander and chilis, making it better. Tried to get the shredded pork roll once but they ran out. Definitely like this place, would probably get it more if it wasn't so out of the way.

It's always busy at lunch, but the line moves quickly so don't let that keep you away. They are really friendly and I've been really impressed by that there. It's become a bit of a weekly habit now.
