Fast and quick spot for grabbing a bite to eat. I love their charbroiled pork banh mi sandwiches. Orders can be placed by person or through a small kiosk in the front. Water is self serve. Quick place to go to when you are looking for something fast! With a Yelp review you can also get a free drink! read more

The 1 star is SPECIFICALLY referring to the popcorn chicken I had the misfortune of ordering. I originally found this place when was looking for Oxtail Pho, which was great. As well as other things on the menu like their garlic noodles and bahn mi, all solid menu items. But today I was craving popcorn chicken and I had no reason to believe from multiple visits, that they would disappoint...Well, color me disappointed. These were more like mini chicken nuggets scattered amongst some under-seasoned steak fries. And to top it all off, it was like a handful of each. They charge $10 for this kid sized let down. Never again! read more

The good: I got banh mi thit and egg rolls catered to my house for my kid's birthday from here. It was so convenient and my guests loved that we had Vietnamese food. The egg rolls tasted good and authentic. This is one of the few Vietnamese places in this area that offers catering trays. 18 half grilled pork sandwiches was under $50 and the egg roll tray was under $60. They also delivered. I liked that the egg rolls came with lettuce. The sandwiches weren't dry. They threw in 4 free Thai iced tea drinks! The bad: My mom didn't care for the Vietnamese sandwiches but she's quite picky. They would've tasted better toasted at home I think. I called and asked if the order could be delivered earlier at 10:30 instead of 11:15 and the man said yes but this didn't happen. The interesting: They also sold other catering tray options too like papaya salad. read more

Recently moved to Torrance, trying out new pho spots. This place was delicious and had the biggest portions. So much meat in my bowl (I got the Saigon pho) and my boyfriend got the oxtail pho which was the star of the show. We also got the Saigon fries which were perfectly crispy, cheesy, and the meat on top was well seasoned. We had double portions essentially and now have so many leftovers for dinner. Wow. Impressed. You order at the counter and then sit. The servers bring you your plates, and everyone was kind. Had a coconut coffee and a strawberry hibiscus tea to close out our meals. WOW- can't wait to come back and try everything else on their menu. read more

As someone who's Vietnamese, I can confidently say Pho Saigon Eatery in Torrance is the best pho spot I've found in LA so far! The broth is rich, flavorful, and authentic--it tastes like home. The portions are generous, and every ingredient is fresh and perfectly balanced. The staff here are so friendly and welcoming; they truly make you feel like family. The place itself is clean and cozy--not too fancy, but just right for a comfortable meal. If you're craving authentic Vietnamese flavors, this is the place to go. Highly recommend! I'll definitely be coming back again and again. * A very satisfied Vietnamese foodie read more

Enjoyed the Saigon beef broth pho the most of all the options so far. Broth was quite good with decent kick to it - I like to add the jalapeño slices that are available on the side to spice it up.

Looks like a food court restaurant. In the same plaza as a car rental company and huge car wash. Fast service, pretty good portions, good prices. Pho broth was super flavorful and came out piping hot. The meats weren't anything special but lots of noodles made it very filling. Vietnamese iced coffee is dark and potent. The flavor is at least. I took a sip and it was super roasty. Food comes out pretty fast. One con is that most things come in disposable containers so a lot of plastic waste even though we were eating there. read more

I ordered the Cash Burger, and it was packed with flavor. The burger was perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and honestly one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. Even a simple burger here tastes like it was made with care. The truffle Parmesan fries were another standout--crispy, flavorful, and completely addictive. We also tried two dipping sauces: the habanero cream and the chipotle. Both were delicious and added a unique twist to the burger and fries, but the habanero cream was definitely my favorite. It's not often you find sauces that elevate an already great meal this much. My only suggestion would be to improve the outdoor seating area. The benches could use a little more attention, and having a better trash setup would make eating outside much more enjoyable. One thing that really sold me was my one-year-old. She absolutely devoured the burger! I usually have to work to get her to eat anything besides quesadillas, and even In-N-Out can be hit or miss with her, so that says a lot. Overall, I'm so glad we stopped here. Between the amazing food, fun atmosphere, and beach-town vibe, I'd happily go out of my way to come back. If you're anywhere nearby, don't miss this spot!

Everything was ordered EXTRA SPICY -- Level 5 through the online menu. When we got home, we took our first bites and immediately thought, "Wait... did they give us someone else's food?" No spice. Zero. Barely any flavor at all. This wasn't Level 5. This wasn't Level 1. This was apparently Level 0: Thai food for people who are afraid of black pepper. So we called the restaurant. The woman who answered told us, incredibly confidently, that they don't make their food spicy. Excuse me... what? This is a Thai restaurant. We have ordered spicy food from Swan Thai before. And, more importantly, your own online ordering system literally has spice levels, including Level 5. So either the online menu is completely meaningless, or someone in the restaurant has decided that customers no longer deserve to know what they're ordering. We asked to speak with a manager. Apparently, there was no manager. We asked for the owner. We were told the owners "come and go as they want." So who exactly is running this place? Is it just a group project where everyone shows up, does whatever they want, and hopes nobody asks questions? The food was so bland and disappointing that we barely ate it. And honestly, after the ridiculous phone conversation, we didn't even have much interest in finishing it. What makes this worse is that I used to like Swan Thai. That's why this was so disappointing. Restaurants can have an off day, but when the food is wrong, the online menu contradicts what an employee tells you, and there apparently isn't even a manager available to address the issue, that's more than an off day. Swan Thai, you used to be much better. Somewhere along the way, the food lost its flavor and the customer service apparently lost its direction. I won't be making the mistake of ordering here again.

Enclosed and heated seating area. It's warm even in the winter rain!

I visited Saigon Eatery and decided to try their unique take on a pho bowl. I was intrigued by their combination of brisket, meatball, ribeye steak, and boneless short rib, so I gave it a shot. The bowl was amazing with the various cuts of meat. The brisket and ribeye steak were extremely tender and the meatball was flavorful. The boneless short rib was definitely my favorite part of the meal. The broth had a rich depth of flavor and was even better with the hoisin sauce. The noodles were well-cooked, and the garnishes added great flavor and crunch. Overall, this pho bowl was extremely delicious with the blend of meats g. I would definitely come back to order different things. read more

This restuarant is a truely gem, They offer an authentic Vietnamese food. The pho was rich, flavorful Pho broth is the star, perfectly balancing aromatic spices and tender meat, whether you choose beef or chicken. The generous portions of fresh ingredients, like herbs and lime. The crispy, mouthwatering spring rolls and Banh Mi sandwich are perfect complements. The service is warm and attentive, and the cozy, inviting atmosphere makes it a great spot for lunch and dinner. Fantastic food, excellent value, and a welcoming vibe. read more

What a delightful dining experience at Saigon Eatery! The rare steak pho was an absolute hit with both the kids and myself - rich in flavor and authentically crafted. Their commitment to authenticity doesn't stop at their dishes; spotting the original sriracha on the table was a pleasant surprise. The service was impeccable, making our meal all the more enjoyable. It's rare to find a place where both food and hospitality shine equally. Highly recommend for families and pho enthusiasts alike! read more

"I recently visited Saigon Eatery and had a delightful experience! The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with friendly staff who provided excellent service. The food was delicious, with generous portions and authentic Vietnamese flavors. I particularly enjoyed the pho and spring rolls. My only reason for not giving a full 5 stars is that the wait time for food was a bit longer than expected. Overall, I highly recommend Saigon Eatery for a tasty and satisfying meal. Rating: 4/5 stars" read more

My review is based off the spring rolls and garlic noodles. Spring rolls were dry, barely any noodles and flavor. The peanut sauce was also salty. The garlic noodles was mediocre and basic. Overall would not recommend and maybe youll have better luck with the pho. The thai tea was really good tho! read more

I got a medium spicy papaya salad which was sauced well (not dry), seasoned well, and had a kick for it (so mild recommended). I loved the peanuts. One of our favorites was the fried tofu, comes with a sweet chili sauce with peanuts *not spicy. The tofu was fried perfectly with a slight crisp and the tofu inside was still soft. The pad see ew is on the thicker side but has a tint of wok hei and not too oily or salty. Its a great place to eat at if you're running errands!

I went with brisket, chicken, fried tofu, and mushrooms, along with the chicken and beef broth and thin noodles. Unfortunately, the meal didn't live up to my expectations. Overall, everything was very bland. The broth tasted more like watered-down chicken stock than a rich, flavorful pho broth. The chicken was also quite dry and chewy. One thing I did appreciate was being able to add vegetables to my pho, since that's not something you typically see at traditional Vietnamese pho restaurants. However, even with the added veggies, the soup lacked the depth of flavor I was hoping for. The restaurant itself was clean, and I liked that there was a self-serve beverage station with complimentary water. I also ordered a jasmine iced tea, which was refreshing. One thing to note: if you choose to sit on the patio, your meal will be served in takeout containers because their ceramic bowls aren't allowed outdoors. Overall, I really wanted to like this place because of the customizable menu, but the lack of flavor kept it from being a memorable bowl of pho.

We came through a few minutes within opening hour so we were lucky enough to choose the table we want. We took a seating for two... ... until we realized we were gonna order too much food so we moved to a table for four. (Heh!) Their menu is so extensive, and if I had zero restraint, I probably would have ended up ordering ten dishes. And then there's their off-the-menu board! So many choices! But we decided on four - and even that was way too many! BLANKET SHRIMP: Hot off the frying pan, nice crisp on the outside. Filling was delicious. Sauce was a good add. Good starter. CRAB OMELETTE: I'll be happy to say I found another place who makes it delish! Its simplicity is what makes it so good. I could have this and plain white rice and I'd be a happy camper. THAI RAMA FRIED RICE: Above par and delicious, but has room for improvement. It's a little oily for my taste. They're generous with the amount of shrimp, and flavor was on point, so I'll give them that. PADSEEW NOODLES: Bestie's pick. I had gotten so full from the other three dishes and had no room for it, but Bestie really liked it. FOOD: 4. Everything was cooked to order. SERVICE: 5. VALUE: 4. PARKING: Huge parking lot shared with others. Not an issue. OVERALL: 4.5. Sent the link to Hubbers who put in his own order for us to take home. He, too, enjoyed his grub.

Hubby & I were instantly greeted warmly by staff. Shout out to THANG and the crew, he's the best! He was attentive, friendly & welcoming, ensured we were happy with our dining experience. Ordered the Lomo Saltado, shrimp spring rolls & meatball pho which arrived in a timely manner. TgecSTAR of the show is the Lomo Saltado-- I must admit, this alone was a 10/10 because it's better than the one from our usual Peruvian spit in Cerritos. It was flavorful, the best was soft, silky tender-really bursting with flavor. The fries were equally tasty, soft crunch & nutty mouthfeel. The pho was pretty good but the noodles were not exactly on the Al dente side, the broth was rich. The shrimp fresh rolls were delightful with the creamy peanut sauce. It's a win, win, win on all counts. The restrooms were clean. Parking is free & shared among other businesses at this plaza. Today was an excellent experience, HIGHLY RECOMMEND this new spot. Give them some love.

To our surprise and delight, the restaurant is in the old Yami Tea House location in Lomita. My daughters spent many hours studying there in high school. The space is open, spacious, modern and bright. The restaurant has a nice ambiance. We shared two appetizers - Yuzu Pepper Pork Cheek and Oxtail Fried Rice. The pork cheek pieces were packed with tons of flavor and had a nice crispy texture. The generous mound of fried rice was served with two sunny side up eggs. It was delicious. Two of us ordered Pho Short Rib. The bowl came with two massive braised short ribs that absorbed the flavors of the pho. The rich broth was amazing, the best I've ever had. It's slow cooked for 48 hours without the use of MSG. Two others ordered Pho Shaken Style Filet Mignon. The tender meat was served on the side. The last dish was Cajun Tiger Prawn Mushroom Garlic Noodles. Both dishes were thoroughly enjoyed. NAM Kitchen was excellent and will henceforth be our go to Vietnamese restaurant, especially for pho. I look forward to dining there often and exploring more of their Vietnamese Peruvian fusion menu.

Still through it all, they still hang out together. These three worked so well together, that they'd assist each other without speaking a word and/or glance, they just did it. They raised the bar so high how to be an outstanding server. Today, Nicole lights up the restaurant with her smile and personality. She does everything, literally everything. It's hard to comprehend how she keeps up that energy. She developed such a high standard in the food service industry, that she's definitely an asset to any restaurant or in any company. You can see her between taking care of guests cleaning tables, handling online food orders, organizing, etc. Her coworker mentioned he learned so much from her and wishes he can be at the same level as her on day.

We've had a few hiccups over the last couple years, orders coming out wrong and/or out of certain ingredients but nonetheless we have continued to try supporting the business. During our last visit we found hair in the tendon of one of our soups. When we brought it up to the server, they responded that hair sticks to tendon during the cleaning process. Zero accountability or apologies, just that tendon has hair on it. We've been coming here for years and never found hair on our tendon before. Furthermore, the server clearly is unaware of the accessibility of the web. While she was trying to explain this, we had already looked it up and knew she was just trying to cover up. This is not a place you go to for good service but at least there was a time when the food quality balanced it out, unfortunately we will be steering clear from this place. Pho Hana in PV is a little more pricey but at least the quality has stayed consistent. It's either that or driving to gardens for us.
