    Chicken wing app
    Lydia F.

    We had a great time at Sai Gon Pho. The service was wonderful and the restaurant is modern with lots of seating. For food, I tried the chicken wing app. It was sweet and spicy, with the perfect amount of heat. Not to much, not too little. My husband tried the meatball pho and I got a combo vermicelli bowl with grilled pork, shrimp, and egg roll. The veggies in the bowl were refreshing and light. The food was perfectly seasoned, and I added their homemade chili oil.

    Summer Rolls

    Wandered in before a movie at Emagine Novi. It's conveniently close if you're looking for a quicker meal before catching a movie. There were plenty of open tables, but it wasn't very busy on a Friday night. I'm not sure how long they've been at this location, but all the servers were very friendly, and I appreciated the screens rotating pictures of their menu. It made their food seem extra appealing. I ordered the P4 with sliced beef and the summer rolls. The summer rolls were different from other versions I've had- This one had a strip of tasty BBQ Meat which I really enjoyed. The pho itself was a solid broth. I wouldn't rank it among the tastiest pho I've ever had, but enough that the broth had a good depth of flavor. Unlike many other pho restaurants I've been to, they pre-add the bean sprouts and Thai basil for you, though they let you add your own jalapeños. Overall, this place seemed like a solid place to go for me. Convenient if I'm in the area, though I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to come here. We'll no doubt wander back in another day sometime soon.

    Broth is very flavorful and not too salty and the beef is tender. It was comfort food full of herbs and Vietnamese seasonings. Highly recommend.

    5/5 Delicious food, fair price, friendly table service and good music + atmos *** a great destination for solo or family

    Came here for a weekday night dinner. Service was friendly and Inside was clean. Ordered fried egg roll and shrimp pho. Egg roll was fresh out of pan and it was crunchy outside and stuffed with ground pork and vegetables. Pho soup had a good flavor with plump shrimps.

    Had a good bowl of Pho. The bowl was a little small (compared to others for the same price $17). The broth was a little lighter than others as well but I preferred it cause it was less salty as well. Service was good. They had plenty of tables, only 1 large booth. Good for small to medium group. Overall it was good and I would return.

    We chose this place for dinner after we visited Twelve Oaks Mall. This area is a commercial haven with every mall variation imaginable...indoor conventional, satellite plaza, strip plaza, etc. This restaurant was in Twelve Mile Crossing, which is basically an outdoor mall that really didn't resemble a town center as much as an urban neighborhood or a downtown side street. But whatever you want to call it, it was a nice feel that created a cool vibe. This particular complex was mostly restaurants with establishments such as Black Rock, a Bar Louie, a BW3 and others. The parking was ample although, because it was a big lot, on a busy night you could end up parking a little way out. The atmosphere was nicely sedate and comfortable when we visited. The dining room capacity was perhaps seating for sixty but there were only a dozen or so patrons when we walked in. It was wonderfully chill. We were seated right away and our server attended to us quickly. She did a good job taking care of us throughout our visit. The menu was straightforward and contained several Vietnamese standards. In addition to the Pho, there were also rice and noodle plates. We were attracted to these in trying to maximize our flavor and limit our calories. I chose the Grilled Chicken which was accompanied by rice, a fried egg and salad. It was well done and the taste was excellent. The sweet dipping sauce (nước chấm) was a nice complement. My wife chose the Grilled Pork Chop with the same accompaniments and she was equally happy with her selection. We ate about half of our servings and each had a small meal to take home. I was happy enough with the value I had hot tea to drink and my wife had water. So with food, drink, tax and tip, our outlay was $32 USD. At $16 per person with another small meal to take home, I was happy enough with the value. We'll keep this place in mind when we're in the area again.

    Went here for the first time and there were many things I liked. The inside was nicely decorated and I liked the set up. The staff was friendly and the service was very good. My friend got the hot tea and really liked it. Now for the just the okay part. I really liked the broth in the pho, however I was not a fan of the noodles. My friend didn't mind them but I was not a fan

    Came to Michigan for work and felt like I was coming down with something 2 days later...I attribute that sitting on a plane for 5 hours so I wanted pho. I'm from SoCal which is one of the premier areas for Asian food and so my expecations were quite low to find good pho in Michigan. Hopped on Yelp and found this place closest to my hotel. Walked in. Decorations are cute. Restaurant seemed clean. I got the egg rolls and the pho they had on promo which was beef ball, flank steak, tripe and raw beef). Egg rolls were good but not served with the usual accompaniments such as lettuce, pickled veggies, etc but the server was nice enough to make a small plate for me. The pho broth had a lot of depth, not oily at all. Noodles were cooked perfectly. Overall I was surprised at how good it was. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that they pre add the vegetables for you in the pho vs serving it on the side. I'd comeback.

    Fresh rolls
    Nco Y.

    The fresh roll was delicious. The pho I. The hot stone bowl is a little small for the good broth and pho. Wish they had a bigger option. The pho broth was still hot when I finished the pho that is what's nice about the hot stone bowl. Definitely recommended.

    Eggrolls. Excellent

    Sai Gon Pho Wow. This is not your typical pho place! Why. For now 2024, it's the first pho restaurant in Michigan that has the stone bowl pho! P1 - Sai Gon Pho Special. Yes. It comes with everything and includes a huge oxtail meat/bone. The stone bowl comes out boiling hot and you add your meats, vegetable, and garnish. Nice! I've seen the stone bowl pho go for $40 in CA but at this place it's only $23. We really get the better deal. The eggrolls were good and on par with everyone else. Something different? Yes. They have coconut juice from a real coconut! Excellent! Called "Fresh whole coconut". Done right. Wow. I make this drink at home all the time. Trust me, it's a challenge. Just come, the pho is great. The broth is similar to the rest of the pho restaurant. Good. Not oily. Clear broth. Nice staff. Very open floor plan. Nice decor. You and your friends will be satisfied. FYI, the stone bowl pho($23) is the biggest pho bowl at this place. You can ask them to upsize your 11.99 bowl to the stone bowl if you want more pho helpings. For me, the 11.99 bowl size are very small. I would put this pho on par with Pho Lucky, Taste Of Vietnam Pho, and Detroit Pho & Crab. It's that good. Michigan has a lot of good pho places. Now we have stone bowl pho!! Highly recommended My Star System: 1=Dumpster fire. Don't waste your money 2=Disappointed. Lot of issues 3=Average, 1-2 issues. 4=Above average, I might come again 1-3 times per year 5=Highest. I will come back a few times a month or more. If I live far, it's at the top of my list to visit when I'm in town.

    Consider me being so nice leaving this star since i was the one who got to walk back from the parking lot coz someone forgot to put extra rice that i paid for. And the look that i got like i asked for extra free rice when the guy behind the counter asked me to check the box with chicken in it because that's where they put the rice. And now everyone can see themselves.

    The pho was delicious and well seasoned! The portions were just right and the prices are decent. I really liked the look and feel of the restaurant layout. And the service was good.

    The service and food were 5 stars. I was greeted immediately (although it would be hard not to be--…read morethe interior is small, and the welcome desk is immediately to your right when you walk in.) The menu is strong but limited, which I kind of like- limits decision fatigue, especially after a long day. I ordered the nigiri combo, for the cause. Nigiri is something I've only really gotten into this year, so I'm not an expert, but I know what I like and what I don't. Soft, sticky rice that feels fresh and adhesive but not clumpy, fresh smelling and looking fish. The California roll was a California roll. The nigiri was great however. The shrimp in particular was light and almost creamy tasting? I know that sounds odd but I mean it in a good way. The rest of the fish was good. I even tried eel (this is big for me) for the cause! It was rich and fatty, but not in an unpleasant way as I feared. It was pleasantly sauced, so I was able to try it sans soy sauce and was pleased! I *really* liked the soy sauce here, although they don't give you very much. They also are a bit stingy with the ginger. This was my first time trying tamago, which is a delicately sweetened egg roll stuffed with rice. If you're not used to it, you have to get over the look and just go for it! It's yummy! The restroom was clean but smelled faintly of cigarettes. To be honest... I didn't mind that. It kind of fit with the vibe and gave the restaurant a "real" "edgy" feel, although some people may not appreciate it. The interior is kind of messy and unkempt, but if you keep your eyes on the prize- the food- you'll leave happy!

A pink floral wall contributed to a whimsical aesthetic while board games on the table gave entertainment options for patrons. I could see this as a space where friends gather to catch up and spend some downtime together. I appreciated that there wasn't any music playing so guests were able to focus on their conversation without worrying about white noise. The menu was clear yet not concise. There were many options - to the point that I felt overwhelmed. The workers were kind and patient, giving space for time to decide. I ordered the Mango milk tea with boba. When placing my order, the staff asked how much boba I would like while stating there were different amounts of boba offered as evidence by the 7 tier markings on the sample cup. I didn't realize that by following these directions, there would be an extra cost in addition to the drink price. I wish this had been communicated beforehand and think that transparency would contribute to stronger customer service relations. The drink had a sweet flavor and was light. I enjoyed the mango and it tasted similar to a juice. I thought the boba was dry. If I order a drink again, I would forego the boba toppings. Three stars because the drink flavor & the environment gave strong first impressions. I admit that not having been here before contributed to a lack of familiarity of the menu though I can't ignore the price paid for the taste of the boba. I'm open to frequenting them again & it's nice to know of another Boba chain to add to the rotation though I feel pretty ambivalent about them.
