Although the soup I got was pretty good (lentil and red curry) it definitely needed some salt. Like a lot. And I don't over salt my meals usually. My friend got a sandwich here, panini, it got heated there and when he took it off, the bottom was burned. The second time he went there, it was not cooked enough. Guess they have to work on that. Service was nice, but we only had one spoon in the bag for the soups. Little details often make a difference

The peanut butter dumplings were a little interesting to me and could've been a little bit more savory, but we're still very tasty and the shrimp was the biggest surprise because I'm not a huge fan of mayonnaise, but that's what came with the shrimp and the combination was surprisingly tasty. I did pick up and did not eat in, but the staff seemed friendly when I stopped by.

Whatever it was Pho Saigon Viet-Nam served me up the best Satay Beef Pho I ever tasted. I started my lunch meal with spring rolls ($5,00). They were good but not the best spring rolls I ever had. The roll I thought was a bit chewy. Next came the Satay Beef ($12) which totally flavored the Pho. It was the best Pho I ever had but mind you I am no expert. They have a strange business model in that a small bowl is $11 and a large bowl is $12. It came out piping hot. I had to let it sit, as well as, blow on the broth to cool it down. The staff was tri-lingual. Imagine that! The food came out quick. It seems a lot of locals dine here. The restaurant is located in Chinatown. The street entrance is below ground level. The restaurant is somewhat dated and upkeep could be improved. The food is a 5 STAR in my opinion.

More of a 3.5, but I'm giving this rating a little more leverage for the service and hospitality…read more We came on Christmas Eve, because all my other usual pho spots were already closing by 5pm. The restaurant was relatively empty. Tabletops had a bit of a stench to it and the menus handed to us were sticky. Not one to judge a book by its cover and these conditions are fairly common in Chinatown. The menu was pretty extensive with all the common dishes. I really wanted some banh cuon or banh uot, but on a frigid night, I felt like some pho would hit the spot instead. The bun bo hue and banh canh were very enticing to me; those would've been great options on a cold night as well. Prices were reasonable ranging from 12-16$ based on size. We ordered a small and medium; instantly regretted not getting a bigger size though because I def could have eaten more. Broth was darker than normal. Nothing stood out about the broth, but it was pretty spice-forward and still very much hit the spot. They surprisingly loaded up on the meat; I've never had this much meat in my bowl of pho at any other restaurants. The noodles were also cooked perfectly! Realistically I probably wouldn't come back here as often if my other usual spots were open, but I'm especially grateful they were welcoming during holiday hours. I noticed that the banh xeo and some other dishes were cheaper than other places though, so maybe I'll return for that. CASH ONLY.
