I'm honestly really disappointed with my experience at Saigon Jade. I'm still trying to figure out…read morewhat we paid for here. My aunt was served a bowl that was dirty on the outside (yes... the bowl, not just the table -- see the photo I attached). Not exactly appetizing... and she didn't eat it at all, it was completely untouched. We told the staff immediately, and instead of, I don't know.. like maybe apologizing or replacing it like a normal restaurant?.. They basically said it was our fault and still charged us for the untouched dish. So just to confirm: you can serve dirty dishes and still get paid? That is a interesting business model, I've never seen anything like it! Then they hit us with a 20% service fee, which is honestly kind of iconic considering the service was: * ignoring customers * denying what we clearly told them * and charging us anyway Like... thank you for the experience I guess??? And to top it off, after I actually ate there, I had the worst stomach ache and diarrhea. So NOT only do you pay for food you don't eat, you might also leave with a free health issue! LOVE THAT!!! As someone who is Vietnamese, this was just embarrassing. You expect better standards, better hospitality, and at the very least... clean bowls??? Overall, if you enjoy paying for untouched food, being gaslit, and risking your stomach, this is your place. Otherwise, I'd look for somewhere else to eat.

I've came to Saigon Jade a couple of times now and I have to say, this might be one of my go to pho…read morespots now. The first time I had it, I actually couldn't stop thinking about it because I was genuinely surprised with how good it was. I also noticed that they are very consistent with the taste of the broth. Usually when I get pho, the broth doesn't always taste the same but here at Saigon it does. The broth is very rich and savory. I also noticed they add a lot of noodles which I love but I also wish they added more broth. The meat is also very tender, I always go with the brisket and it always tastes great. I personally like my soup to have extra green onion, unfortunately if you do ask for extra there is a charge of $2. I also recommend the egg rolls, they're packed with flavor and honestly it's just a good appetizer to have before your pho. The restaurant itself is beautiful and very spacious. Every time I've gone there's never any wait. The service has also been great, I've had maybe 1 time where it wasn't as great but it was still good. The food always comes out fresh and very hot. Overall, I love this restaurant so much and I will continue coming back!

They do give you water bottles instead of cups and as a former germaphobe I actually love this. The food is absolutely fire.I can't call it the most fine dining Vietnamese , however for what I was expecting vs what I got into, this is absolutely going to be at minimum a once a month visit for me for a long time. I can't wait to try the other menu items. I came with my girlfriend and she also really loved the pho and service . The sweet waitress also called my girlfriend very pretty (she's right) Also you may have seen 100% bring cash. I would've been a bit disappointed if I didn't and I'm very lucky to have had cash on me. I went and got the 2 regular sized pho's and left 30$ and that seemed to make everyone happy lol. 10/10 loved it a lot I hope these people are making lots of money because this is what being in America is about lol

Next to the hotel where we stay when we visit family, is a shopping center. One day, I noticed…read morethat they had a Pho place in there. When our grandsons and their Dad came by later that day, I asked them if they were willing to try Vietnamese food. We gave them a description as to what Pho was and let them know that there were other items on the menu besides Pho. They all were willing to give it a try. One grandson didn't come along as he has a part-time job and had to work that day. Once we all entered the restaurant, we were greeted and seated. I ordered my usual Pho Ga and my husband plus our son-in-law also had the same thing. One grandson ordered a Pho that had beef in it. The other grandson isn't a fan of soups so he ordered a fried rice and chicken meal. The Pho portion was very generous and the aromatics were fresh. Everyone who had Pho enjoyed their meal. Our grandson, who got the chicken and fried rice, liked his meal. The ambiance is that of a casual place with some artwork on the walls. If we lived nearby, we would gladly go here again. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing.

I've had pho from here twice but both times were a bit different from each other…read more The first time we came in we ordered an order of spring rolls, I got pho, my mom got a Vermicelli noodle bowl and we also both got a thai tea. It was the closest pho spot to us at the time & it did it's job at satisfying our craving. The next time we stopped by we came here because it was the only place that stayed open a bit later than other spots. Our pho, thai tea, & black tea were good but for some reason our appetizers (wontons & egg rolls) were way too greasy and not very flavorful.

My girlfriend suggested this place and oh my gosh, it was a great recommendation! We spoke to the server and her name was actually Simi- her parents own the cafe. She was so personable and told us this restaurant has been in her family for many years! However, the inside of the restaurant does not look like it's been in the family for years as it's very well kept. All three dishes we got here were amazing and quite huge for the price! It's worth sharing with the table to try different dishes! The house pan fried noodles were soo good but it's best you eat them at the restaurant since the crispy noodles will get soggy if you order take-out. They also have an employee who makes pies and they sell them in house. The slices were huge for $7 or so! They had peanut butter chocolate and coconut!

Our tab had an auto 20% gratuity already added on to it. But when I was paying I wasn't aware and made a comment regarding the selections for tipping percentage on the iPad being low. Our server, I believe whose name is Thuy, heard the comment but don't say anything so I assumed tipping wasn't added and tipped 20% on top of that. Once the transaction is done, I wasn't asked if I want the receipt and he quickly tapped on "no receipt" for me. ‍‍ I later found out we tipped closed to 50 percent of the tab, which I have no problem with if it was great service. But all of these seem sneaky if not deceptive. Not sure if it's individual doing or the typical practice of this restaurant, but it was my first time here and sure won't be back. Tl;dr: Server being sneaky and appear to be intentionally not disclosing when gratuity is already added. If you want a great tip, just provide a great service geez.

I decided to meet up a friend here and try it for the first time, and right when we entered we were greeted by the owner. Right off the bat, I could tell the service was going to be great. He was very sweet and helpful, and made us feel comfortable. We ordered the nem nuong rolls, pho ga, and pho tai. In my opinion as someone who grew up eating this food, the food here was okay. The spring rolls could have tasted fresher and the pho wasn't the best; it could have had more meat and onions/cilantro. It was also served with 1/4 of a lime, and when I asked for more I wasn't told I would be charged for it. But that's fine. Overall, the service was great and would keep me coming back, but the food is just okay. It's a good pho restaurant for the area.
