My sister wanted some broth so I decided to grab some pho while I was there for lunch. The owner was really nice and spoke when I first walked which I was glad of as he was eating lunch in the front. The younger guy who was at the cash register with the iPod in his ear also had a big bowl of pho. I just don't underhand if you on duty why have the kid in your ear first of all then have you lunch right in front of customers? And wonder why customer's orders are always wrong. The selection is minimal and many products have pork in them which I do not eat. So I had to just go with the brisket and steak pho which I was hoping I would see fatty brisket as an option. But there was no option for it. The pho was not flavorful at all and I didn't even have the side of Sriracha that usually comes with the pho to go. When I'm back in town I will have to find another pho place to visit as this one missed the mark for me. read more

Food is amazing. The look, the taste, and the many choices they have. I have always enjoyed the outdoor eating accommodations and the inside is also delightful read more

The food and service were great. I just wish they had the lemongrass in there spring rolls it would really set the flavor off. And the peanut sauce is amazing. read more

We ordered two vermicelli bowls. One chicken and egg roll the other with beef. The chick was good. The egg role was literally 2 inches long, and the beef was not edible - too tough for my wife to chew. Service was good, and waiter was nice. Tables were clean, but the trays with spoons and sriache sauce was sticky and the spoon holder looked like it hadn't been cleaned since they opened. For what you get, it was way overpriced. Even if food had been good, $14-$15/plate is about $4 too much for good Vietnamese food. For this quality, $8 seems more reasonable. We won't be back, and I would suggest it to no one. read more

Big fan of the service and food quality here. Wonderful staff and we were extremely pleased with our overall meal experience. read more

Pho Saigon - Chicken Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Longview, Texas

Just tried this place for the first time. The pho was great! I was super happy with it because we recently moved from DFW & I was afraid that I wouldn't find a good one here. It's actually better! Yes! My only complaint here would be that the sauce packet was tiny. They could be more generous with the sauce. The "plate" is enough for two big bowls of soup but only enough sauce for one. Very flavorful; spicy, slightly sweet, umami, yummy! Grill chicken spring roll (x2) was just okay and I say that because the chicken was dryyyyyyyyyy. So dry I could barely eat it. Good flavor otherwise but it was hard to get past that. Filet mignon & onions with rice was fantastic. A real wow. I had not had it before. It was delish. Hubby loved it. All three was $30. read more

For Longview it's a great option. The p13 is very tasty and unique. Always very quick and packaged nicely when you call it in.

If I could rate this place a 0 I would. My husband and I love pho. And we decided to drive from Tyler to check this place out. We tried to call before hand to check the time they close and they hanged up on us. So we decided to just drive and give it a chance. Trust me when I say, we really wanted to. My husband ordered the food. And the young man taking the order was beyond rude. My husband got overcharged for a third pho when he only wanted two. They young man told him his total was $60 when we ordered two phos each at $15 and two orders of spring rolls each at $5. When he asked the young man why it was so much the boy just stared at him. He asked what all did I ordered and he replied with "what ever you ordered" My husband then asked for the money back since the total wasn't adding up turns out he had added a third pho. Then the lady in the back came and asked if we really wanted to cancel the order. My husband said well I wanted to eat here and all I wanted was two phos and two orders of spring rolls. She said she was already making it and he said ok that's fine. Keep in mind they were about to close. So we sat outside in their outside furniture and when we began eating the pho was cold. My husband's beef pho was raw. Worst experience ever. Will never come back. read more

This food is always amazing! Everything we've had so far is so good. The place is nearly empty. I can't understand it. We're new to the area and this is the best place we've found to eat in the area over the last year. Flavors are great. Service is fast and accurate. Veggies are fresh. I cannot say enough about how much we love this place. Give it a try! read more

Amazing Pho all the flavors combine to create just the right combination of taste and texture. The fried rice is great and they have the best crawfish on weekends. read more

So I have nothing to say about the food but the new old dude they have working is rude af. He barely lets you talk and never asked for a name or phone number or anything, and then just hangs up the phone. I might not have been done ordering and just click. RUDE af read more

The staff does not adhere to CDC guidelines, staff was not wearing mask and felt very uncomfortable being served and left before ordering.

Ever since I moved to Texas, I regularly miss good, AUTHENTIC-tasting Asian food. I was surprised to see this Pho place open up here recently, so I was curious and finally decided to try it out. For those who don't know what Pho is, it's a Vietnamese noodle dish, similar to Japanese Ramen but much different. The soup includes rice noodles and is served with fresh herbs, lime, and bean sprouts that are added in right before you eat it. It's a highly customizable dish--you can order it with beef, pork, seafood, or whatever...and with the addition of hot sauce & chili paste, you can make it as spicy or as mild as you like. Anyway. All I can say is--wow! I was in heaven! I haven't had decent Pho in at least 4 years, so I was thrilled to see that the people who run this place really know what they're doing. After eating there and reading their website; they definitely know their pho, and it's made right. And for those in your family who may not want to try Pho, they have a variety of other dishes that are more of the "Chinese restaurant" type. They have the full menu on their website (and while not the best looking, it's very helpful and detailed) so you can figure out what you want to order before you even get there. The staff are also super friendly and very helpful. If you've never eaten Pho, they will give you a little "tutorial" on how to eat it properly so you get the most out of your meal. And the prices are very reasonable: for less than $10, you get a HUGE bowl of Pho that is guaranteed to fill you up and make you happy. I urge anyone in the Longview area to try Pho. It's not only delicious, but it's also SECRETLY QUITE HEALTHY (SHHHH DON'T TELL YOUR KIDS!), and a fun alternative to the boring old pizza, hamburger, or steak dinners you might be used to around here. And with a nice place like this to eat at, you have no excuse not to at least try it. (You'll thank me later, promise!) read more

Pho Saigon - Delicious pho! - Vietnamese Near Me - Longview, Texas

Great flavors - I would recommend this place to anyone in East Texas. Step out of your comfort zone and experience some amazing flavors.

The service was very good, and the food authentic. Particularly loved the vegetarian options. We sat outside, and still had good service. The inside tables had plenty of options for 2 people or a large party. The place was clean, and the Pho hit the spot. Lots of great options. read more

The spring rolls are the bomb!!! And they also have delicious fried rice. I had the seafood pho deliciousness in a big bowl yummy

Good food. Friendly service. Nice clean restaurant. If this place happens to have a less-than-desirable Health Dept. score, don't worry about it. There is at least one local inspector who needs validation and is on a citywide power trip. read more

For Longview standards this place is good enough, but in comparison to most places in dallas this place pales in comparison in both price and flavor. Personally have a kind of love hate relationship with this place. Been coming here since the day it opened, but never out of my own accord. Usually end up here due to friends "democratic" decree haha. The food here just isnt that great in comparison to other vietnamese places in the big city. The liquid itself is more akin to bullion cubes as apposed to slowly stewed meat broth of properly made pho. Sometimes theres not much meat or ingredients in the pho as well. One thing to note is there are two pho resturants in longview. This one I find everyone tends to like more, though hmm honestly I prefer the other one in town flavor wise. Both are pretty similar though. Will say the other pho in town has some dishes I find quite good, but ita been a while since I've last went to be sure. Anways back on pho saigon. The price as well is a bit high for pho, but in comparison to other resturants in longview its similar so I wont knock it there. The staff though very much a family run kind of resturant with a very loose staff who although very accomidating can be lost in their own world conversing with friends or on their phones. Don't be a stranger to giving out a call to ask for anything if you need assistance. Also a warning. Be careful of customizing your dishes such as if you would prefer egg noodle insteasd of rice noodle, since they may very well charge you for that, and you wont know till your looking at your bill at checkout. Ask if changes will cost you. Also a tip for those really hungry, ask for a real big bowl, and they will make you a serving larger than the large in the menu via a jumbo sized bowl. Albeit it will cost more though understandably (roughly around 12 bucks). Another treat is to ask for a box of fried tofu (sometimes they can or cant make it due to supply) . Its also a fun treat to dip with friends in the condiments they have (its usually asked for by local vietnamese in town for their own home cooking as a base ingredient). With everything said, I personally am not a fan of this place personally. Its a bit grimy from the tables to the menu which dont bother me to much usually, but the food too is a bit underwhelming as well. Its a nice option though for longview and as a change of pace. read more

Decent pho compared to others I've tried in SoCal. I've had it made from scratch, from restaurants, and even from restaurants in Vietnam itself. This one was alright, considering it's the only Vietnamese restaurant in Longview, Texas. Broth was a little thin, and a little salty. But the meat and toppings were very fresh so that's nice. read more

It's nice to have a good Pho place in a small town. When I lived in Ft. Worth, I became a pho'natic. I'll definitely be back. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because their tea was old and they didn't make any fresh when my friend took it back up to the counter. Also, I've not been able to try everything on the menu. But, I'll be back to try more. read more

Dinner at Pho Saigon. Food good as usual. The waiter other story. Had to show his pants dragging. Showing his underwear for all to see. Waiter also set around with friends. It's more a high school hang out at night. The best time to come is lunch. Night waiters set around a table playing on phone. When they could be cleaning. read more

My sister and I visited here last night. We had no idea this place existed! I ordered the round-eye beef and the brisket pho. Excellent! I thoroughly enjoyed it. My sister ordered the combo fried rice. She enjoyed it as well. I will say about both, though, that if you aren't a big fan of bean sprouts, ask for them taken out. They INUNDATE the fried rice with it. For the pho, they bring out a seperate plate with a wedge of lime, basil, cilantro, bean sprouts. I chose to add a few leaves of cilantro, because cilantro is amazing, and the lime. Bean sprouts just aren't my thing at all. All in all, I loved it. I will be back when I visit my family in the area! read more

This is our Pho stop when my husband and I come into town. We have been at least 3 times before and have always enjoyed the food. This time around I had a special surprise in my soup. I have a ritual where I fix my pho with the cilantro, mint, hoisin sauce & sriracha and then take a picture before I take my first bite. Thank goodness I noticed the **ROACH** in my soup before I was about to take a bite. You can even see it in the picture at the bottom of the bowl. Sent it back, got an apology & then left. I will not be returning. read more

Pho Saigon - ROACH Soup - Vietnamese Near Me - Longview, Texas

THE SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE!!!! The waiter we had was so rude and unfriendly that it didn't matter what quality the food was, the experience just plain sucked! It's a shame that someone like this should be allowed to work there. The guy can only be described as some middle aged white guy with an attitude. There was no one to c plain to about it. We weren't the only ones to motice. There were two other sets of customers that said the same thing. Sorry but as long as I see this guy working there I won't go back. read more

Fast friendly service. Tea- super hot and super yummy. Egg rolls- standard. Yum tho. The pho is exceptional(I had p12, lemongrass chicken). Having had pho in all major cities around the US I'd say pho Saigon comes in third place. Didn't try much else on the menu but there is lots to pick from. Who would have thought Longview could Pho. My only complaint? The pho is a bit salty. read more

The food is fresh and hearty. A bowl of pho will definitely fill you up. Restaurant is clean, service is efficient, and waitstaff is very friendly and welcoming. Once your deliciously-crafted bowl of pho is in your hands, where you take the flavor is up to you. There are many different items and condiments available to put in your food, so how it tastes is really up to you. This is a great place to go when the weather gets cold. My favorite bowls are the special beef combo and the seafood combo. read more

I love Pho and the food here is really good. It's fresh and the meat is pretty good quality. They did have a waiter who was attentive and friendly. The prices are high and, sadly, they don't have any lunch specials, which are common at other Pho restaurants. What really made me give it only 3 stars is the good waiter is gone. The last time I was there, the waiter was inattentive and bored. Then I got my check. I ordered a plate of plain white rice and they charged me $4. Knowing the price of rice, this is just offensive. read more

Sign says open at 11. Arrived at 11:15, nobody inside, doors locked, stomach empty. They don't give a pho

This is a good place to eat considering it one of the only Pho places in the area. We ordered two dishes. One was the beef brisket Pho. This dish was a solid 5. Great flavor, just excellent. The other dish we ordered was the grilled shrimp and pork over rice. The meat on this dish was also excellent. The only complaint is that the rice wasn't really up to par, was a bit crunchy and had likely been sitting around a while. The owner here is nice and will chat you up. Great service and food overall. They even have a drive thru!! Recommended read more

Lunch- I've never been in here but I'll try it again. Service was good, decent. Store seemed clean. Food, ok, it was good. There is plenty too. I had BN11, Chicken and Shrimp. I'd do it again. It's Tues so it wasn't crowded or that's what I'm marking it up to. Cost, decent. It was worth what we got. read more

Food is just OK, nothing special and definitely not worth what they were charging for it. Servers look like just friends hanging out wearing shorts and flip flops and you literally have to scream to get their attention even though you are the only customer. read more

We've been coming here since they first opened a few years ago and I've never really been pleased. The only reason we keep coming back is because we live in Longview, TX and there are just not any other choice for vietnamese. The service is always horrible and tables are always half wiped and sticky. Tonight is the last straw and I'll NEVER return. The only time the server came to the table was to bring us our drinks and food, he never came back to check on us. I ordered a Thai tea and it was filled 3/4 of the way, I asked about that and was informed that's how much they usually fill it. actually they did used to fill it a little more (when I say a little I'm not exaggerating). I sent the tea back there's no way I'm paying for that drink. Then we ordered the A1 spring rolls, the wrapper on the spring rolls were HARD which means it's not fresh! How do you serve people food like this?! Pho Siagon in Longview is not the only vietnamese restaurant I've been too I know better. EXTREMELY disappointment on this visit and we will NEVER return! I don't expect good service when I go and this time enough was enough! If I could rate them NO STARS on Yelp I definitely would. The sad and worse part about all of this is the owners don't even care, if you complain they'll look at you and think you're the problem! These owners need to get out of the restaurant business ASAP because they'll never survive this business the way they are... Well maybe only in Longview because there are no other choices! Please take a look at the pic of the Thai tea that they brought me. read more

Pho Saigon - Seriously?! If they don't want to fill it all the way then buy a smaller cup don't fill it 3/4! I sent this back! - Vietnamese Near Me - Longview, Texas
