    I absolutely love Saigon Drip!! The customer service here is truly top-tier. From the moment you walk in, they treat you like family and make you feel genuinely welcome every single time. The environment is always incredibly clean (even their kitchen) and comfortable, which I really appreciate. You can tell they take a lot of pride in their restaurant. The food is also consistently great. That's one of the things that keeps my staff, family and friends coming back. Everything is fresh, flavorful and always prepared the same way every time I visit, which, to me, says a lot about their ownership and staff. Honestly, this isn't just one of my favorite Vietnamese and pho spots in Seattle, it's one of my favorite restaurants overall. If you're looking for great food, great service, and a place that makes you feel appreciated as a customer, this is definitely the spot. Highly recommend! Easy 5 Stars

    Vermicelli noodles with Tofu
    H M.

    I was in Seattle for a short visit and I went to this place three times! I had to try all their tofu options and I still can't decide which I liked the best- I enjoyed all three versions. The ambiance was another reason I liked this place. I enjoyed looking at the various decorations spread across the high ceiling - especially, LOVED the film cameras! The staff was very attentive and friendly. I can't wait to go back to Saigon in Seattle:)

    Ribeye pho hotpot
    Matthew Y.

    Came in for the ribeye pho hotpot and a grilled chicken bánh mì. The hotpot was a showstopper.... generous portions of ribeye in a rich, flavorful broth with a huge basket of fresh accompaniments (noodles, bean sprouts, herbs, cabbage, lime, chili). Great for sharing.

    Saigon drip was not worth the hype. I got the bahn mi drip, and there was too many onions for how much meat there was, the sandwich does not hold its shape because the bread disintegrates, and it was too single dimensional in flavor. There are much better places for a sandwich in Seattle, this just doesn't make the cut for me.

    This place was packed and for good reason! Absolutely delicious. Fresh bread. Pickled veggies. Generous portions. Really love this place and will be back!

    Brisket Bahn Mi

    Parking: paid street parking only unless Sunday. Honestly it's overpriced. We served ourselves - cleaned up a dirty table when we arrived and bussed our own dirty plates after. Ordered via a tablet and there's no service or free water. It's limited tables/seating inside. We both ordered the beef brisket Bahn mi. The broth was luke warm, not hot, and too salty. The brisket would have tasted better if it came with pickled veggies. And it's a little sweet. We wouldn't come again.

    It's packed and I'm PUMPED to have this again!!!

    WHOO this place was CROWDED and rightfully so! This was my second time coming here, the first was for a yelp event, and I was soooo glad I came back. We came around lunchtime so the place was packed but people rotate in and out pretty quickly so I was able to find a seat just as my food was ready. They are great with making sure their staff is nice and full so the service was quick despite the crowd and they were all so friendly and helpful. I love the vibe of this place and seeing it during Christmas time was cool. The food was SPECTACULAR as always. I was trying to suppress the delightful sighs that wanted to escape after each bite of sandwich, melting in my mouth, and each sip of bone broth. 11/10

    Tofu Banh Mi
    Peka G.

    Such a cute, swanky, place with an ode to Vietnam. I love the art, plants and recycled code container canisters! I ordered from their computer screens but there were people there to help if needed. Delicious Tofu Bahn Mi!! Well balanced flavors and textures. Strong Vietnamese coffee, mine could've used a little more sweetened condensed milk but that could be just my taste buds. I've only gone once but definitely want to try their pho or pho dip with my sandwich!

    Cult cut
    Harun O.

    Ambiance 4, service 5, bahn mis 5+. I'm usually okay with sacrificing a little bit of hygiene for a truly authentic banh mi but at Saigon Drip, I didn't need to. The place offers a very authentic banh mi while also having a clean, modern atmosphere. We ordered two banh mis. First of all, the Banh Mi Drip's marinated meat was insanely good--tender, flavorful, and juicy. Honestly, you almost don't need the broth to dip because the meat is already that juicy. Next time, I'd enjoy the broth just as a soup on the side. The cold cut classic had thick cuts, pâté, and all the right flavors comparable to some authentic spots in the ID. The experience was great, and the lighting inside was warm. You can see the open kitchen. The folks behind the counter were super helpful, answered my questions, and you can tell they're happy to be there. I'll definitely be back ( oh also dont forget to use the little photo stand for a selfie :) )

    I had a 24 hour layover in Seattle and decided to yelp the area for pho. After reading the reviews, I had to check this place out. It did not disappoint! The restaurant itself is not big but I love the energy and the set up. There's enough space if you came with a group but you don't feel awkward if you do decide to come alone. There's smaller tables that make it easy to dine by yourself. I came for the pho but the reviews made me order the bahn mi drip as well. It was delicious! Very meat heavy so if that's what you enjoy, you will love this! I wish I ordered pickled vegetables to balance the sandwich more but you definitely get your moneys worth with the amount of meat in the sandwich. The pho was SO delicious that I swear I didn't use any sauce condiments. I truly didn't need any of it!! I was tempted to ask to take out just the broth so I could have it later. Ordered a bunch of the teas/coffees to go and tried them at home. Most delicious milk tea and Vietnamese coffees I've had in the states. The Thai tea was a little too much for my personal taste but the rest of it was amazing. I will be back the next time I'm in Seattle!

    Pork Bánh Mì Drip

    Wow best bahn mi I've had in a long time! So juicy and flavorful! The pork literally melted in my mouth! Can get a little messy but it's so worth it!

    My family loves this restaurant!! Always the nicest staff, the food is BOMB. Today we had the Bok Bok Bitch and a delicious order of dumplings. Can't wait to be back.

    Cult Cut Classic
    Sisi T.

    This is a pretty pricey Pho spot compared to other local businesses I've been to in the Seattle area. I ordered 3 Banh Mi, 2 Pho GF* one with added brisket (not sure what GF stands for), 1 Vermicelli Noodle Bowl, and 2 Vietnamese Coffee that totaled about $124. You order at 2 P.O.S monitors at the front counter when you walk in. Their menu is a bit confusing. At least it was for me, so I took a little bit longer to get my order in. The workers were very helpful and friendly. Just ask anyone if you have any questions. It's not a very big seating area, so you have to be quick if it's busy and grab a seat(s) if you want to dine in. Their Pho broth and quality of ingredients was top notch. I tried my better half's Banh mi drip. The meat was so tender and the dipping broth was flavorful. My cult cut classic was just that. Classic flavors and ingredients of a Banh Mi on a toasted baguette. I enjoyed it. The coffee was nice and strong. Just how I love it. I got the iced Cafe Sua and one to go. It was still good a day later. Glad I was able to try them on my visit to Seattle.

We likely will be back in the near future!

The custard duck egg is an excellent starter, with a rich, savory broth that delivers a deep, yolky umami punch. The rau ram oil and herb is such a creative twist that adds the perfect herbal dimension. The radicchio pudding was light and offered a clean, almost grassy brightness without being overwhelming in flavors. Great option for any vegans at the table. The wagyu beef tallow fries were some of the best fries I've ever had. Ultra-crispy, perfectly thick-cut, and deeply flavorful with beef notes shining through, without being too heavy. Like many of the dishes here, perfectly balanced in flavor. The grilled eggplant with whipped tofu and crispy sun chokes was another standout. The tofu whip was so smooth and should be considered a worthy sub for mayo. The eggplant was soft, creamy, and perfectly charred. The garlic rice was incredibly savory and maybe my favorite version of it yet. Packed with the perfect depth of garlicky flavor and seasoning. Finally for dessert - I thought the durian fruit cup was decent, it's great for durian lovers but next time I will be back to try their other desserts. The hollow bread is a must-try. It's fried to perfection, the inside is steamy and the butter it comes with is perfect but the bread alone is so good that it doesn't need it. The perfect touch of roasted sesame. Slightly sweet, it's a delight in textures and perfect in cold weather. The oyster on half shell in happy hour is also a great standard oyster, very fresh, with a nuanced Viet twist in the sauces. Vegetable dip is pretty standard and also delicious, great if you're looking for a healthy starter. Coffee rubbed ribs were fantastic as well and an incredible deal for the size. Very savory, a little sticky sweet, but not too much. Service was also friendly and the food came out in a reasonable time.

Easy to eat and flavorful on its own but dipping it with Chinsu added spice and more flavor. Bot Chien had a crisp to it and egg was cooked well. You have to dip it in the fish sauce or else there is no flavor. Just something minor but I wish the pickled veggies were more separated. It had the cut lines but not fully cut so you had to separate it yourself. The com tam was alright. All of the components you would usually get for a broken rice dish. The meatloaf was really good. The pork on the other hand was a bit too salty for my liking. And you only get one thin piece... soup on the side was good and was a good way to cleanse the palette. Overall good modern/fancy spin on Vietnamese food but overpriced. Would probably be nice to go during dinner time for some drinks as the ambience seemed better for night time. Good amount of seating. Street parking around the area was easy to find.
