Love Pho, and this is a great spot here in Northridge. Been here many times and started a review and realized I never finished it. The restaurant itself has a lot of seating, all inside, nothing outdoor at this location. Inside is clean and practical. It does have a beautiful painted mural along the entire wall which I don't believe was there before, but whomever did it, did an excellent job, pretty cool. The staff is super friendly, the food comes out fast and they come around often making sure we had everything we need and keeping drinks full. Places that keep my drink full are places with great service typically. I almost always get one of the Pho soups, but tonight I decided to get their Cornish Game Hen with veggies and rice, a chef's special. It was very, very tasty. The hen was done with a really crisp outside and super tender inside. I added jalapeños and cilantro as well. Excellent choice. My wife got her vermicelli noodles with grilled pork and egg rolls with fish sauce on the side. This is also an excellent tasting dish and I would recommend either of these as well as the Pho here and pretty much everything here tastes amazing. Unfortunately, I did not get shots of the menu. They are located at the corner of Nordhoff and Reseda. Large parking lot with plenty of parking. Enjoy! read more

I don't understand the raves and great reviews... but what do I know.. The service was ok, not great, not attentive, quite slow. There wasn't even a lot of people there. The inside was decent, at least it was clean. The food.. man, I was disappointed. I hoped the banh mi was going to be good, because we don't have a good banh mi place in the valley. The ones down the streets are hit and misses all the time, just depends if you're lucky. This one let me down, and the server was boasting that they make the bread in-house with their own secret recipe... sure buddy, too bad it's not that great. The pho was a let-down too, the flavor was not great, nor was the quality of the meats. Not worth the try. read more

I returned to Saigon Brothers after a really great first visit and this time the experience was a bit different. It was a busy Friday night and the team seemed understandably stretched. Service felt a little chaotic, and at one point I was handed another guest's credit card by mistake with my bill after I just started eating my bowl of pho. The avocado shake was lighter in flavor than expected and tasted more milky than avocado-forward. The pho was still good, but the portion of meat seemed smaller than what I remembered from my last visit. For around $27 for a regular size bowl of pho and a shake including tip, I wasn't sure the value was quite there this time. I know prices are going up everywhere, and the restaurant was clearly doing a big dinner rush, so maybe it was just an off night. If you're looking for a place that is less chaotic, try Khuu Bistro when you're in the mood for Vietnamese food. read more

I have been to Saigon Brothers in Northridge, on numerous occasions. Each visit has been rewarding, one way or the other. This time, to get a carry out of their Banh Mi with grilled beef. Together with, pate, julienned cucumbers, carrots, jalapeño and other ingredients inside a split baguette is a joy to savor. Especially, if the baguette is well toasted to have a crisp but soft exterior that gives you a good crunch and a bite, at the same time. Saigon Brothers has never disappointed in this department. Their Banh Mi is a superbly freshly assembled preparation. They take good care of you while you wait for your order to be prepared. Always providing dependable, friendly and customer oriented service. read more

My order was to go - and we ordered pork & eggroll vermicelli plate, eggrolls, and bo ne sizzling skillet with homemade bread. For a to go order I was quite surprised because our eggrolls still came out crunchy when we got home. The homemade bread was delicious although a little chewy maybe it's good heated or toasted. The vermicelli plate my sister had was also delicious although it wasn't my cup of tea. Place was clean, staff was so fast and directed us where to pick up our order. It's a different flavor for Vietnamese food - they put in their different twist on their flavor. Lots of seating. Lots of parking in a big plaza. read more

First timer here trying out this place. It's located in a massive strip mall so parking is a breeze. The restaurant itself is quite big in size. We arrived just before 1pm on a Monday. Which there was only 4 other diners. It was pretty quiet during lunch time but we didn't mind. Finally staring to cool down so what better way than to enjoy a nice bowl of pho. The menu was quite impressive. Also when you open the menu book, they were showcasing that they offer a pho challenge. There was no price so I'm not sure what that entitled. Obviously finished the bowl within the time limit. Not sure if it's free when you complete it or you have to pay the fee if you don't. Not sure how it was offered. They did have a good selections on their starters. A good selection on pho which was the reason for trying this place out. Also rice dishes, combinations, vermicelli noodles, vegetarian and specialty. Tried the pho 1 which was the extra large combination beef. The extra large bowl with tendon, flank steak, tripe and filet mignon. And the bean sprouts, jalapeño, Thai basil and lime. They were a little skimpy with the veggies. And for the extra large bowl, it looked like a regular size bowl of pho. So I'm not sure what their regular size would be like. First impression, broth was good. The portion of protein added was a good amount. Decent amount of noodles as well. It was good. Also did the trick as it was getting cold out. We also had the banh mi. There was a lot of options to choose from. But went with the classic grilled pork. It was mentioned that their rolls are made in house. It's served with pickle carrots and daikon. Cucumber, cilantro and jalapeño peppers with mayonnaise spread. Portion wise, the veggies were packed in which was great. The roll itself was halved but potion wise, it's on the smaller size to other places. It was good though. The food was nice. Flavors of the pho broth were great. Banh mi was nice with all the veggies and protein. Service was good. I'm curious on the pho challenge though. read more

Was craving some pho and my friends had suggested this spot, and they highly recommended it. I ordered the steak pho and in all honesty it was okay, I compare it to my favorite spot roughly down the street. For me personally, I thought the noodles were a little too firm for my preference. However, the food that my friends got and they absolutely loved it. The service was really good, the staff were really nice which I appreciated. The inside the restaurant had a nice aesthetic to it. Overall, I think this place was okay if you're in the area and wanting some pho read more

I came here for the first time after eating Vietnamese food for 20 years and I was unbelievably impressed with the service the cleanliness the attentiveness and the freshness of the food. The food was so fresh! I live in the valley for 10 years and I can't express you how little I'm impressed with the cuisine but this place stood out so much both of my daughter and I wanted to come back next day because it was so good. And the portions were large and the food was so reasonably priced. read more

Saigon Brothers - Pork bunny veggie spring rolls vegetable soup - Vietnamese Near Me - Northridge, California

This review has been long overdue (couple of years!!). This is one of the best Vietnamese restaurants I've been to in the SFV and I've been to a lot. From the cleanliness, service, ambience and vast selection of delicious dishes. I've been coming with my kids or with a big group of friends. Went recently with 15 people and they all loved it, the service is great, they dedicated a seating section for us and we each got separate checks. Can't wait to do big group dinners again. They were easy to work with. Thank you Kevin and the staff at Saigon Brothers! read more

Came in, quick service. servers always kind. Ordered the egg rolls (I've had before and they are always delicious. Comes with sauce, carrots, cucumbers and mint) and Grilled Pork Bahn Mi for the first time. Wow. Bread was fresh and warm. It's made in house! it was DELICIOUS. So glad I tried. The bread was so warm and fluffy but had a nice crunch on the outside. Pork is always a go to, especially for the Spring Rolls too. Do recommend the eggrolls, Pho, and now the Bahn Mi! Can't wait to come back and try the rest of their menu! read more

Updating my review. Sadly this place has gone down. Quality and quantity of food. I came in last month to try something new. I usually always get Pho. I tried the beef bone soup. Broth was so watery and bland. Meat on the bone was rubbery and tasteless. I thought maybe it was just a bad day. Gave them a try again last week. I ordered the beef salad, and a child's plate of grilled chicken, which came with noodles or rice and an egg roll. The beef in the salad was fatty and rubbery. And a very small amount. The child plate cost $12.99! Egg roll was old, chicken had a weird old taste. Noodles were disgusting so I ordered white rice which I was charged an additional $3.00. This was a horrible expensive lesson. I also had bubble guts later on at home. Like I said,the chicken tasted weird. I won't be coming back and I no longer recommend. read more

Saigon Brothers - Filet Mignon pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Northridge, California

Let me know if you have heard this story before, its a cold afternoon in Northridge, CA. With a air of chill and the possibility of rain in the air, your stomach lets out a faint grumble. Your hungry! What do you do? Well, that was my story after leaving church and my friends and I were looking for something warm to really warm us up. Thanks to yelp, we found Saigon Brothers. Located close to Cal State Northridge, it is perfect position for college students to warm up. But, does it live up to the hype? The interior is minimalistic with a single TV showing any local sports or news. So it gives off that family diner vibe. Yet, it was a bit empty. To me, that set off some alarm bells. Service was immediate as there were at least 6-7 people consistently making everyone feel at home. Now to test the water, I ordered my normal Beef Rib Pho. As pictured it came with 3 chunks of meat. Sampling the beef pho, warm beef broth with a touch of salty aftertaste, which in my opinion was wonderful. But the star of the show, the beef ribs. The meat was tender and the it did not fail the bone test! That to me was the highlight and delight to my meal. There was indeed a bit of disappointment that I couldn't do it again for a video. But, the meat portion was generous, tender, and flavorful. For $20 you are definitely getting your money's worth just from the broth and meat alone. I added a bit of chili oil to mine for a slight kick. Now, the real reason I am giving 5 starts is service. For a crew of 7 people who were dining, its always a problem when we pay. I don't mind using payment services to get it done, but our hosts were able to split the bill and allowed us to pay separately. which to some of us, was a life saver. Overall, not a bad place to keep in your back pocket if you want some pho. As I am not regularly in the area, I would visit again if someone mentioned it! read more

Not super sweet, and the perfect amount of milk. It's in the Vons shopping center fingers plenty of parking. This is probably the best Pho I've had in a long time! 5 stars! read more

Wanted some comforting food on a rainy Friday and Saigon Brothers did not disappoint! Parking was easy in the free plaza parking lot, in front of the shop. We were seated quickly without wait for an early dinner (5:30 pm) and got a booster seat for the toddler in a booth. Service was excellent for us and food came out very quickly. They had a kids menu too with options for pho or rice dishes. My child loves fat noodles like udon so we got banh canh and she loved it (not on kids menu). Their fruit teas are amazing, I loved my drink! Will definitely come back, great price and service with delicious food. The restaurant was very family friendly as seating and decoration was new and comfortable. Gets packed quickly by 7pm looks to be popular with locals and students! read more

|[ p h o r e a l ]| 4.5 stars rounded up! Pleasantly surprised with the tasty broth that's not too salty and pho portion size here. I can see how the broth can arguably be more flavorful, but it's not bad and above average for the valley imo. The seafood pho was great-- really hit the cravings. Regular size was enough to fill me up but they also offer large sizes (not shown in menu). Shrimp spring rolls and peanut sauce were also pretty good. Most importantly, all the ingredients of our pho as well as spring rolls down to the wrapper were freshly made and so delicious on a cold day. |[ w o w ]| Service was quick, attentive and efficient. Huge dining space, welcoming ambiance. It's like I can get 626/oc pho without traveling as far. Parking lot out front. My new fav pho place, please don't ever lose the quality! |[ e x t r a ]| They have a super pho challenge that cost $45 for a 2lbs bowl and if you can finish in 1 hr you get the bowl free LOL gluck to anyone who tries! read more

Saigon Bros have some solid items and prices are fair. We ordered pick up and everything was neatly packed. The eggrolls are good. I think the eggrolls are a tastier option than the pork or chicken pot stickers. The vermicelli bowl is very filling with a lot of noodles. Their pho also comes with a lot of noodles too. The pho broth has a good amount of flavor. I saw on Their menu the bread for the Banh Mi is made in house and looks super soft in the photos. Would definitely like to try it! They also serve milk tea and have a kid menu if you dine in only. read more

Don't order the beef short ribs pho. The beef was hard to eat and has the "not fresh" blah taste although we were told it has been steamed for 8 hours. It was a waste of beef.

Thank you Saigon Brothers for a delish meal. The pho hit the spot on a cold chilly evening. Nice amount of filet mignon in a flavorful broth. We only wish the large bowl was larger as the noodle portion was lacking in our serving. The egg rolls were yummy! The star of the show was the lobster garlic noodle. I could have eaten 5 more plates of that and now I have a reason to come back. read more

Ok I've wanting to try Saigon brothers ever since it opened and I finally did! The pho was very delicious and I'm a pho lover, so I left satisfied. I like how they have a small size bowl or large, which is only $1.50 more. I do suggest to just get the small size because that will fill you up for sure. Get the large if you want to share. The service was good and very attentive! Nice workers here! I ordered the chicken pho and it is better than most in the Valley. They also have some hot and spicy Vietnamese hot sauce that is on point! The ambiance is good !!! You can watch tv inside too! And it's clean inside and super spacious! I will definitely be back here! -Marshay D. read more

The pho here is really good and tastes very authentic. The broth is clear, rich, and flavorful without being too salty or heavy. The noodles have a nice texture, the meat is tender, and the herbs are fresh. You can tell the pho is made with care. The drinks are also well made and not overly sweet, which pairs perfectly with the pho. Everything tastes balanced and satisfying. Friendly service, clean space, and great food overall. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place. read more

Saigon Brothers is an impressively clean and welcoming spot. I had a hard time deciding what to order because their menu is packed with great options--pho, bánh mì, vermicelli, you name it. I was torn between all three but ultimately went with the V1 vermicelli bowl (grilled beef, grilled shrimp, and an egg roll), while my friend ordered the Pho 1, the extra-large combination beef. The staff was very attentive from the start. They took our order right away once we were ready and made sure our water cups were always full. Our food came out quickly, fresh, and piping hot. The pho broth was incredibly flavorful and exactly what my friend was craving. My vermicelli bowl had a generous amount of each topping, and I appreciated how they brought out extra sauce right away when I asked. Everything tasted delicious, and the overall experience was smooth and enjoyable. I definitely recommend Saigon Brothers if you're in the mood for flavorful, satisfying Vietnamese food. read more

The filet mignon beef pho definitely hit the spot. The broth is light and delicious. I go all in on the preparation, by squeezing out a few limes, throwing in 3 jalapeño slices and adding a generous amount of Thai basil. I then add the hoisen and sriracha sauces and then pull out the 3 jalapeños. And finally, I stir everything up, to get that perfect umami flavor taste of pho. More and more delicious with every slurp. As far as protein, the filet mignon is tender and flavorful. I enjoy dipping it in both hoisen and sriracha sauces and then straight to my mouth! The noodles are thin, properly cooked and very yummy. The spot is located on a large plaza with plenty of parking. The design is pretty modern and the place is spacious and the guys working there are very friendly and knowledgeable and happy to recommend you a unique new dish if you're feeling adventurous. For me though, their awesome pho does the trick. Will be coming back for more! read more

Out with wifey one day and we were looking for a place to eat lunch . it was 1045 am and as far as i can remember, this place opens up earlier than the usual lunch time so we came here. At first I wanted a pho, but then decided to get a different menu that i haven't tried before. So I got the noodle salad with shrimp and beef and my wife got a beef dish, i forgot the name but they were so good and very tender. The one I got is just ok good too! What I like about the food is they were presented very clean and fresh. It looks pure and simple. Tastewise they were delicious! The place is very clean and service was quick too. Next time I'll try their pho and compare it to the others. Overall experience great! read more

Had to fill my bi-monthly pho craving, so looked up on Yelp and this place seemed to fit my instinctual prowess. Haven't been to this huge plaza in over a decade and didn't even know this was here. Its roomy and very modern, unlike the dump-like shithole this plaza is. I think this used to be a Baja Fresh location, which are quickly evaporating faster than you can say "sewage odor." Prefer clear broths so I chose the house pho with a couple shrimp (more please!!!) shaved ribeye (thin, delish and super tender) but the beef "balls" are beyond awful; hard and tasteless, picked those out. The noodles were good and so was the pho...wife had the garlic lobster noodles, a cooked dish that was good but 75% hardshell tail which, unless your Darly Hannah the mermaid in the 80s movie Splash, you cannot eat it. The little lobster that was in the dish was tasty. I will come back to try the Banh-Mi sandwiches which I still haven't had as well as a few other items. Was buzzing on a Wednesday; nobody wants tom cook or has time anymore. 45 bucks got us out without drink, 2 dishes no appetizzies. Service is efficient but can use some pep and cheerfulness/welcomed properly. A solid 4 with potential to be a 5. read more
