I was missing this place so being too late to eat at Pakwaan down the street, I was able to take my time & eat here since it's open till 9 pm. It was very peaceful. The server remembered what I usually ordered & the food arrived before I finished this review! I had the fried wontons, the traditional ones, and the noodle soup with everything on it. It's "what the Dr ordered", as they say. I was very satisfied with the food. read more

I'm shocked that this restaurant didn't have more customers! The service was amazing and the food was delicious. These days it's hard to get a yummy pho for less than $18-20. This pho was both delicious and also only $14- a portion that my partner and I both could easily share. The interior of this spot is also quite lovely :). I hope to see this place thrive!! Couldn't recommend it more. read more

This is our go to for Vietnamese food in our area. Always happy with our food. Love their broken rice options, the vermicelli salads and the pho. But it's always best to enjoy pho while you dine in, it's not the same when you get it as take out. read more

We live nearby and its the closest Vietnamese option so we have given it a couple trys, but will not be dining there again. The food is, kindly, unexceptional, plated poorly, and ambiance poor. Half the dining area is in shadow. Feels like take out is their priority as opposed to restaurant service. So many better Vietnamese options available if you're willing to drive a little further. read more

Honestly the worst pho in the 804 area. Service wasn't good it took them forever to come to us and it took them almost a hour to get two bowls of pho out with maybe 8 people total in here. The other 6 already had food. Pho doesn't have any taste to it and our noodles came in a big clump. Spring rolls were good but the peanut butter sauce tasted premade like the broth. I'll probably give this place one more chance to at least be decent. And as I'm typing people are waiting to pay for their food. ZERO STARS read more

A very nice family run restaurant with an extensive menu and ample parking. Nice decor, very clean, and they have a full bar with a nice selection of wine. They also have a nice wine selection. Everything served was fresh and delicious. read more

Pho Saigon Garden - There are more tables on the other side of the wall. - Vietnamese Near Me - Midlothian, Virginia

I ordered the Sriracha chicken wings. They had feathers on them. Gag. The shrimp in the Grilled Shrimp with Broken rice was like rubber and had maybe 2 pieces of carrot and 2 pieces of cucumber. Will never order from them again. read more

This was an average Vietnamese restaurant. The pho was about average, specifically the the broth. I wish it was more savior and salty like other places, but it wasn't bad. Since this is one of few places in the area to get pho it will make do if you are craving it. Staff was very friendly. The restaurant was clean, the lighting was a little dim. There was a blue over heard light which made it a little difficult to see. Overall I would rate this about 3.7 stars read more

Pho Saigon Garden - P7. Combination Beef Pho ( No Tendon) - Vietnamese Near Me - Midlothian, Virginia

The dishes were bland and under seasoned though the ingredients were fresh. Disappointing for our first time ordering from them.

I had a great time here! It feels inviting, very quick service, and good customer service. I had great food! The pho was delicious and the spring rolls hit the appetizer spot! Look at my photos, it was well worth the visit! read more

This is the only pho spot in Midlothian/Chesterfield area to my knowledge. Anytime I am in the mood for some pho and don't feel like driving to the west end this is my spot. They give you a lot of food and you will certainly have leftover. The owner is the absolute sweetest lady ever. My only complaint is that their prices are a lot higher than places on the West End. read more

I really like this restaurant. The atmosphere is relaxed, and the staff is attentive. The only thing keeping it from earning 5 stars for me is that their take out food is not nearly as well prepared and timely as dine in. read more

We did takeout from here and I can't say enough on how delicious it is! While I've never been to Vietnam, I feel like this food is the real deal! The fried rice is plentiful and unlike other types of fried rice, stays good for leftovers the next day. It doesn't dry out at all. The pho is amazing! It's not the most appealing take out preparation with the raw meat included, but it's so good! I do recommend that you heat the broth up before you mix it to make sure it's nice and hot to cook the meat. I am obsessed with this food, and recommend it to anyone with a heart for Vietnamese food! read more

This is our go to Vietnamese restaurant. We drive 30 minutes for carry out. The service is always great, the pho is phenomenal, and the restaurant is always clean. My kids won't eat any other fried rice that pho Saigon. It's delicious! read more

3.5 stars TL;DR: Service was great, food was just okay. I'm pretty picky about my pho, but we decided to give this place a try. We came in at an off time, but there were still several tables full. The service was very friendly and attentive. Food: Pho with round eye and brisket: The flavor of the broth was pretty good, and the texture of the noodles were perfect. I'm not a huge fan of cilantro already in my pho, but I'll just ask for it without next time. Summer rolls: were much smaller than I expected, but just okay Fried spring rolls: Probably our favorite thing. It was loaded with meat, which you don't see often. Sriracha wings: They were very bland, and I couldn't really taste any spice to it. Broken rice with Chicken and Pork: The pork was so good, but the chicken was a very strange texture. Rubbery but also didn't taste like chicken. Might just get the pork chop next time. Not the best Vietnamese restaurant I've been to, but good enough to satisfy a craving. I will definitely be back to try other things on the menu. read more

Ordered some Pho to go.. as I arrived at the ballpark and wanted to eat, I noticed that all the meat was raw inside a zip lock bag on the side.. the soup itself was cold and everything came on the side. How are you supposed to eat this on the go when everything is raw? Ridiculous.. read more

My favorite Vietnamese place! Their spring rolls are ridiculously good and they make this amazing peanut sauce with it that just goes perfect. The service is pretty good and fast too. It's always the same people working in there so they start to know what you want after awhile which is nice. Nice atmosphere too. Nice and quiet and perfect for my solo dates when I want some alone time and watch something on streaming with headphones. read more

Worst Vietnamese food I ever eat. Their food is not authentic, pho tasted ok but the portion is small compared to others. I had tofu and egg roll noodle salad bowl today, that was horrible definitely not recommended. The tofu was so hard that tasted like a cardboard. I was super disappointed. read more

Probably one of our new favorite places to eat in the area. We have been here a few times and the food is always great. Every time we have come we have gotten a seat right away. There are two rooms but it seems like most people are seated in the first room where the bar is. The bar is in the center of the building. I have seen people sitting there but it seems like they are waiting for their food to come not just hanging out. I have had a dish from almost sections. Really enjoy the steamed dumplings. The vermicelli bowls is a great dinner choice. The meat is cut real thin but the whole dish will fill you up. The food comes out so quick it is great. The one issue I have had is that the beer never seems to be cold enough for me. I really enjoy my beer ice cold. read more

Pretty decent pho near Richmond/Ft Lee. We got the vermicelli bowls, spring rolls, fried rice, and pho. There was a lot of broth and meat in the combination (P9) and not much noodles, I prefer it that way but it was a little salty for my taste. The fried rice was really good. Overall, a good place to get good quality pho and friendly staff. read more

Seems like its changed owners a few times. Definitely not as good as it used to be. It ok and will do the trick if you haven't had your Vietnamese in awhile, but just so-so for me. Not sure why chesterfield cant have excellent Vietnamese restaurant read more

Great food and great service, havent had anything on the menu i can say I didnt like! Enjoyed and will be back!

I really wanted to like this place, the staff were so nice but the food was not good at all. The spring rolls were puny, 50% rice paper. I ordered the veggie and tofu pho and I don't what that broth was made of, but it wasn't pho broth. It tasted like watered down fish cake broth that I sometimes make in the wintertime. My friend's beef pho tasted like chicken broth. They serve no cilantro, which is fine with me but disappointing to most people I'm sure. No sauté sauce aka chili pepper oil. That was a huge bummer also. Their veggies were fresh though, which is about the only good thing I can say about the food I tried. Will most likely not come back for their pho or spring rolls. read more

We were visiting from out of town and wanted something quick. This place was horrible. It is FILTHY. I was so hungry that I didn't notice how dirty and sticky the floors were. There were also roaches! The waiter was nice. The food came out quick BUT it had little flavor and the place looks as if it hasn't been cleaned since opening. I was appalled. I've never seen anything like it. read more

Food is great!! Restaurant is simple and efficient. Go for the food!! And certainly the restaurant is clean. Service is at the waiter/waitress pace. Sometimes spot on. Sometimes achingly slow. I love the noodle dishes. Daughter loves tofu noodle dishes. Kids get Asian food - orange chicken or fried rice. As I said go for the food!! read more

My favorite place for Vietnamese this side of the James River. I've tried all of their appetizers and most of their meals and never tire of them. read more

This place used to be so good back in the day. I used to enjoy the P1 (beef pho) and the appetizer platter, and the broken rice. Maybe it is the new management, but it definitely is not the same. When we had walked in, there was a weird smell in the establishment and not much attendance (but it isn't the most popular place anyway). The beef pho was just okay, the beef was definitely chewier than I remember, and there weren't many onions in the pho. The appetizer platter was mediocre, chicken satay was not tender at all. Everything tasted just off... I hope the new management can work things out better in the future, it used to be so good. read more

Pho Saigon Garden - P1. Sliced Eye Round Steak Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Midlothian, Virginia

Not fresh, skimpy portions, kinda pricey for what you get .... We stopped in Fri. evening. The place was deserted. We were there for an hour and we were the only diners. We ordered pho and appetizer sampler. Pho tasted OK but for $12 per dish, where you can get oversized large portions at other Vietnamese restaurants, it was an equivalent of small size. The sliced meats were also overcooked and skimpy. The sampler plate, yep, also very skimpy. Lime was old and dry, mint leaves had black spots and wilted edges. Not sure if they had ownership change but will not be going back. read more

It's fine. I'm coming from a place where great authentic Vietnamese food was plentiful so maybe my expectations were too high. Also - I got take out so perhaps that didn't help either. The soft spring rolls are veggie only which wasn't disclosed on the menu online. (Other places put some shrimp in them.) Peanut dipping sauce was yum though. Pho was not a flavorful as I would have liked and they send the eye round steak home with you RAW. I realize that's how the soup is made, but it seems like a liability for takeout when the broth is going to be lukewarm by the time it gets to its destination. I microwaved my soup excessively to make sure my soup was boiling hot and the meat was cooked. Bottom line? I'll order again, but only because it's the only convenient option for pho in the area. Or maybe the drive over to Mekong is worth is... read more

I used to like this place a lot, but I no longer feel that way, unfortunately. I have severe doubts about their food safety practices. Not once, but twice the peanut sauce for my summer rolls was spoiled. The lids were domed from the pressure built up from the expired sauce. Also, the meat in the various dishes is highly questionable. The staff is also quite rude, the service sucks, and the restaurant is dirty. I wouldn't recommend eating here. read more

My recent visit to a favorite restaurant was disappointing. I haven't been here in a year and wow things have gone downhill fast. We came at 2pm and still had very slow service to receive our food. The Goi Cuon (soft roll) featured wilted lettuce and a halved shrimp, while the Vermicelli had an unusual taste, as if the water was tainted. The fish sauce lacked depth, and my bowl was predominantly noodles with underwhelming pork slab 1/2 cooked with some weird slime bbq sauce. It included sparse old lettuce and carrots - barely any, but no sprouts. Basically a heap of noodles and thin slab of questionable old meat. Unfortunately, I couldn't finish my meal, which is unusual for me as I usually devour vermicelli bowls. I ate 5% of it and couldn't finish it because it was just nasty. Prices have increased to $14, but the quality and quantity of ingredients have diminished. I left feeling dissatisfied and unsure of the cause - perhaps a change in the kitchen staff. They have added more road signs to give the ambiance of a Chinese takeout with Covid shields. It seems the waitress and kitchens first priority was the take out orders they had stacking up on the bar while diners actually sitting got to wait until those were done. Regrettably, I'm considering not returning. Place has done a 90 degrees into the can. read more

There's a new owner at this restaurant now. They decided to keep the name of the place and even the layout and the menu is the same from the previous owner. What's different about this restaurant is how the food taste now! Whoever is the new chef is; I praise him for making better food! They have a good variety of Pho (soup). You can choose the different meats and customize whatever you want in the Pho. When my food arrived, I took my spoon and tried the Pho broth and it was tasty! I didn't even need to add a lot of hoisin sauce or extra ingredients because it tasted delicious alone. I still enjoyed their broken rice dish. It comes with rice and grilled pork chop and pickled veggie radish. Great to eat on warmer days. I also got a taro bubble tea, which no complaints there. It tastes like a fruity slushy with round jello (taro) at the bottom. Overall: The new staff that works here are always so welcoming and friendly. The food gets out pretty quickly and is tasty! Prices are a tad bit higher, but worth it if you're around this area. Great for takeout too! read more

I ordered two fried rice, two pork and rice, and 2 chicken on a stick and with a tip it was $87.03. The fried rice was great, the pork & chicken were tough almost like they were dehydrated. I don't think we will be ordering again & I love Vietnamese food. read more

If half a star was an option I would leave it. I just had the worst experience at this restaurant... I used to go here when I was a kid so I decided to revisit it as an adult. I brought one of my friends with me to try it for the first time. She did not enjoy her meal... when I asked to have it replaced or to take it off the bill, The workers there both said that they could not do that and would not accommodate. They were very rude, and did not care about customer service at all. I have never in my life had this experience at a restaurant; they have lost a customer for life. I have never taken the time to make a review but this one was necessary! read more

Tried pho for the first time last night since it's been super cold! Not a huge beef person so ordered pork, chicken, and shrimp. Comes delivered with a side of sprouts, lime, and jalapeño so you can customize your bowl. Sweet lord was this broth delicious!!!! I mean I ate a massive portion and took some home. This may be my new go to spot. Only reason for 4 stars is that the pork was super duper fatty so I didn't enjoy it at all. Shrimp and chicken were perfection. And this place is almost across the street. Edit: ok so now I've had pho a total of 1 time but I ordered pick up for my husband and I. Got the chicken and got beef for hubs..... got home and the beef was raw?!?!? Wrapped in plastic wrap with bloody juices?! Is this normal? I gotta say it really killed any appetite we had. I see the menu says they cook the beef in the broth but if you order to go the broth is separate? read more

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND DINING IN. BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE. Food was good but the customer service was poor. We felt rushed and were not offered any other drink besides water. While we were still eating and talking, the cashier yelled from the register to pay upfront ( did not offer to go containers) and they automatically charged gratuity into the check without our knowledge (18%) . We typically tip 20% but it was a bit forced since it was just me and one other person dining. Overall terrible dining experience as far customer service. read more
