Have been looking for an authentic pho place and I think I finally found it! The lady was nice enough to sit us at 8:15, even though they close at 8:30, she's so sweet for that! The broth is flavorful without being salty, super hard to find sometimes. Inside is spacious with a home feeling. read more

Little Saigon - Beef pho and shrimp 9. Steamed Pork Dumpling - Vietnamese Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

Hidden Gem in Miami A Taste of Vietnam Little Saigon in Miami is a humble Vietnamese pho spot that's been around for 30 years and it shows (in the best way). Most definitely hole in the wall vibes, which usually means the food is authentic. I ordered the chicken pho and spring rolls. The pho broth was incredibly flavorful, but deeply comforting, with tender slices of chicken and fresh herbs on the side. The spring rolls were crispy, fresh, and paired perfectly with peanut sauce. This place has been serving the community for decades with warm service. Highly recommend if you're craving authentic pho and want to support a local classic. read more

I first went to this restaurant decades ago. And I occasionally go back, but hadn't been in about 5 or more years. Hubby and I went for an early dinner with some cousins after a visit to a nearby nursing home. There were 5 of us. We had a pork dumplings appetizer and a Vietnamese crepe. The dumplings were OK. The crepe had partially cooked onions, something we have never gotten before in our decades of eating Vietnamese crepes (and having been to Vietnam in 2023). I am allergic to raw or undercooked onions, so I would have remembered. Anyway, we removed the onions and still enjoyed the crepe. So much so, we ordered a second one without onions. Entrees included duck pho, pork bun (vermicelli), shrimp with udon noodles, and 2 orders of special fried rice (with pork, chicken, and shrimp). The pork in the vermicelli was a bit overcooked. Nevertheless, the meal was tasty. My cousin-in-law loved his shrimp with udon noodles. And even though the broth did not taste like traditional pho broth, the duck pho was a standout. We were disappointed with the fried rice. It had lots of protein but lacked flavor. The restaurant looks really nice now, with newish floors, clean walls, and spiffy but comfortable furniture. I can remember the floors being a bit worn, that the walls desperately needing something done to them, and an AC unit that leaked down the walls. The place has come a long way. Still, two things have not changed. The food is good, and they only take cash. Our meal with 3 appetizers, 5 entrees, tax, and tip was $126. read more

Good pho friendly service no frills Vietnamese food , most affordable in town . My goto lunch for a small pho. Clean atmosphere with Vietnamese owners. read more

This is a spot that I normally frequent with my mom when I'm in town, and I love coming here. The food is consistent, delicious, and comes out quickly. The location feels very homey when you are eating there, which is a nice change. It feels like you are visiting a relative's home and they are cooking for you. The dishes are flavorful and you can really taste the love they put in to each meal. This is my favorite place to get Vietnamese dining in the area and will always be my first choice when trying to figure out something to eat and I don't want to cook at home. read more

It's been a while since I stopped at a random spot, and I'm so glad I found Little Saigon Vietnamese Restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was top-notch. My server was incredibly patient, especially since it was my first time at the restaurant. They have a wide variety of options, including rice, udon, and Boba smoothies. I'm definitely planning to return for a warm bowl of pho. And the prices are incredibly affordable, so I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal. It was empty when I came in so I enjoyed the peace and quiet read more

This is a place in a little plaza right around the corner from Jackson North, right off 167th. I've had food here once before, and my Physician buddy that works next door had told me the food was pretty good, so I'll trust a Doctor's opinion ;) I LOVE Bahn Mì sandwiches, they are so fresh and delicious and hit a lot of savory flavors, salty, sweet, fatty, acidic from pickled veggies etc. Well, I looked through the menu for a good amount of time and was stunned that Bahn Mì Sammies weren't on the menu. The owner ladies were sitting at a table chatting as it was empty when I entered and asked for menu for take out. I told them I love Bahn Mì and would they be able to make me one even tho not on the menu? They were Happy to oblige, and I asked for extra meat and the owner came out and said she'd make me one with extra meat no charge?!? Who the f*^k does that these days?!? Pretty awesome! She won my heart right there! I also ordered some shrimp and pork rolls, and those are pretty much the same/standard no matter what Vietnamese resto you go to. The Sammie was really delicious, it slapped. The pork was marinated and cooked to perfection, with some nice fatty tendon-y pieces, yum. I could have eaten two, they are 10 inches long too, which is a little bit bigger than I've had anywhere in SoFlo. I really really wanted Pho Dac Biet, but for sure next time. Looking forward to going back for another Bahn Mì and sampling other authentic items, these ladies are as Vietnamese as can be :) read more

I was here with a friend on a Sunday night, it was about 30 mins before closing time so the waitress wasn't too happy when we came in. We decided to stay but felt rushed to order since the kitchen was about to close. There was another party eating so they still needed to wait for them to finish. We ordered the pho and tofu rice place, both were good and came out pretty quick. I thought the place was going to be small but it does have several tables with good space in between them. I did notice a weird smell when I entered, we moved to another table and it was a little better. I understand the waitress wanted to go close and leave for the night so I would be open to going back to see if the service is better. read more

This place has been around forever! Food is delicious. No fancy decor but clean and simple. We were the first one to come into the restaurant and the lady came to take our order. She was friendly. We ordered rice noodles without soup. It was light and lots of vegetables. You can pick the protein on top of the noodles. I picked pork and my friend picked chicken. Both were very flavorful and we really enjoyed it. This place is known to take cash only but the lady has a little machine to take a credit card! That's a huge plus for me even though I still paid cash. If you like Vietnamese food, this is the place! read more

Little Saigon - Inside - Vietnamese Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

Went here on a friend's suggestion and I trusted them because they're from Vietnam. The food was really good and flavorful. We started with veggie rolls as appetizers. We had the special fried rice and Udon noodles. So good! The rice was really flavorful and the udon noodles so soft and fun to eat! At first the server seemed a bit rushed but we were so nice to her that she ended up with smiles at the end of the night. It could've been she was tired and wanting to go home. read more

Unfortunately not authentic. But still very good food and good price. Chinese owned. Service is good. Reviews are true-they do yell at you for tips. For example, I gave cash to pay our second visit, thinking she would give me my cash back and I would add it to her tip later. And she yelled that it was too low of a tip. She only misunderstood. The change alone wasn't going to be her tip. Not really a good look for business. On to food: Pho: you can tell something is missing. It's not authentic. But it's good soup. Pork and rice: taste like home. I liked it a lot because of that. Could have been a bigger portion though. Duck: very well seasoned. Very good. I didn't like that they included the butt piece in there. Watch out for that bite. Overall, okay place in a pinch! read more

Absolute shite hole. Nasty nasty nasty . Food not good. Unsanitary looking kitchen . Greedy servers. Better to go to pho 79. This place is a joke . No wonder it was empty . This is not Vietnamese authentic, more like Chinese . Stay away. Believe me !! read more

I stopped in for a to-go order of pho bo vien, which wasn't one of the options on their current limited menu, but the staff member who took my order was willing to substitute beef for beef balls. It was packed well, with a separate container for the broth/protein and the noodles, and a little baggy for herbs and sprouts. The large portion is generous amount of noodles, and the herbs and sprouts were very fresh. If I dined in, I think I would need more broth as there wasn't enough in the takeout order. I also wish I could've packed my own sauce as the small 1 oz container is not enough for a whole large order. It was quick, affordable, delicious, and whenever I'm in the area (with cash!), I'm sure to stop in to treat myself! But the cash only can be a deterrent for friends, so this is almost exclusively a takeout place for me. read more

The waitress was very mean. The restaurant was dirty The food was ok Wouldn't go back

HONESTLY SPEAKING‼ can't even pour a bit of hot sauce on my pho order I placed to go, because I wasn't given no sauces or utensils... And when I do come in and dine in. The lady is always making Tip mandatory ! Like why ? And demanding it with attitude too. Also, smells weird in there like a nursery home for old people. Haha for that I HIGHLY RECOMMEND a place called (PHO 46) in Hollywood Fl. I hope this review helps to be honest.... read more

The food at this restaurant is authentic and very flavorful, I ordered Thit ko (marinated braised pork belly and soy sauce eggs) it came with white rice. Wonderful. But what makes this place great is the "at home feeling" and the great staff who created that environment. :) read more

I have visited this spot for the last 10 years living in Miami. The delicious food is consistent and the vegetable are always fresh. This place has expended over the years, but it is still under the name management an My favorite is #34- Phó beef stew. It has vegetables, chunks of meat , and beef broth. You can always just order by number. All the servers know the numbered menu by heart. Don't expect very engaging staff. They are there to serve you, and that is it. read more

Little Saigon - Hot and sour soup and pan fried noodles. Just two of the vegan specialties. - Vietnamese Near Me - North Miami Beach, Florida

Vibes were a little weird. I walked in and was instructed to pick any table I wanted. I picked a small table by the window, but the waitress came up and said I can't sit there and I need to move to another specific table. The staff was nice but very stand offish. I was only given 2-3 minutes before she came back pushing to ask what I wanted so I chose kind of randomly. The shrimp dish I had was incredible. The sauce was yummy and I loved the wrapping it had. The pho was huge and sooo cheap. Hard to find prices like this. The pho broth was more on the sweet side which i personally don't like but that's a me issue the pho was otherwise very well made and well seasoned! read more

The owner/server is extremely rude and obviously doesn't want business as I have been coming to this establishment for years and its continuous issues, Today I've had enough. I refuse to be treated and spoken to so disrespectful in English or your language. I will spend my hard earned money else where where's it appreciated. Should have reported your business to the health department when I witnessed a mouse jump into a patron's purse. Don't have to worry about me returning. Deuces read more

Nice services, but the food was horrible. Instant pho would taste better than this bowl of pho. I'm so sorry they need a real translator, too. Chả giò is egg roll. Spring roll is gỏi cuốn and by the way the shrimps were bad already. The way they translating all the names of the food is so unappealing. I almost choked when their waitress brought me 10 bean sprouts on a plate for my pho. I asked if I can have more. She said that's all she allowed to because they are running low on sprouts. There's an Asian market rt down the street. Sorry this is little sai (wrong) gone not sàigon. read more

Everything was perfect! The appetizers were good and so was the pho! my one star review has to do with the customer service. Please come with cash tip server/owner cause a scene. literally embarrassed my friends and I in front of people because she felt as if my friend tipped her too little. Became aggressive, stormed off and screaming, and speaking in her native language! Once my friend agreed to tip her more, whole demeanor changed and started smiling! Very weird. please be awareeeee read more

The place is not fancy but thats what is great about it. Delicious pho. I love all the pho at this place

Casual atmosphere. We dined there twice during past 7 days. Vietnamese grilled pork chops were tasty & authentic. Excellent friendly service was provided by staff. Recommend the big bowl of Bon Bu Hue (spicey beef pho). We'll definitely be back again. read more

I would post pictures of the amazing dishes, but my stomach had other plans! The service, authentic food, and distancing were all top notch!! Definitely with visiting again and again, and more than worthy of being a favorite place to fill up!! Would definitely recommend their Seafood Egg Noodle Pho, freshly made Pork Buns, Fried Spring Roll, and Vietnamese Pork and Shrimp Crepe! The Shrimp Chips are very addictive snack, so be sure to order some! Please show this place some love by appreciating the work it takes to serve up such culture. That GOOD! read more

Leaving a review finally for a spot I've visited 3-4 times since I discovered it about 4 years ago. Food & prices are decent. They've changed their menu and now have a temporary menu which is way smaller. I must say, the service at this spot is horrible. The petite woman who seems to serve every table that walks in is just uncomfortable. She is quick to scoff every time one of the guests seem to open their mouth. Any questions that are asked are answered with an attitude and degrading tone and it's just uncool at this point. Took a few friends here to try it out and enjoy the authenticity/prices but the last time I visited was officially my last time. Last time I was there she looked over my shoulder and scoffed, "that's all you give me?" Yanked the phone out of my hand, removed our water glasses and walked away proceeding to complain to her coworker in Cantonese. I don't need you to be my friend while I'm enjoying my meal at a spot; but some sort of kindness is much more appreciated. read more

It's been a few years since my first review of this place, I figure it's time to give it a little refresh now that Miami has progressed a little and more options are now available. Even though there are more "authentic" Vietnamese places, there are still very compelling reasons to come here. 1) It's still cheap 2) It's always open late! 3) It's always consistent read more

I've visited Little Saigon many times in the last few years, each time I am NEVER disappointed. The food is consistently delicious and always makes me want more! My party ordered bao buns and summer rolls for appetizer (perfect), and vermicelli bowls (#67) for the main meal. We all couldn't stop raving about the taste and the extremely fair prices. The one thing that was a downer, Little Saigon only takes cash. Be prepared when you go! read more

TLDR - a quick and cheap pho fix Little Saigon is a good spot if you're in the neighborhood and want a big bowl of pho for less than $10. It's not the best by any means.
