    Such a hidden gem! This Vietnamese lunch/brunch and coffee spot is seriously so good. They even have Mexican food on the menu, which makes it perfect when you're craving different flavors in one place. The banh mi is super tasty, fresh bread, flavorful fillings, and perfectly balanced. They also have a big variety of drinks. My favorite is the coconut water matcha, so refreshing, light, and not too sweet. The space is small and cozy, which makes it feel warm and welcoming. The staff is very friendly and attentive, and you can tell they truly care about their customers. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to.

    Another delicious lunch at Saigon Grace Cafe in its relaxed environment topped off with great, friendly service. So glad it's in the neighborhood!

    The decor inside was warm and comfortable, yet stunning. The employees were incredibly nice and welcoming, food was quickly served and tasted wonderful. I had gotten the Bo Ne, cheesesteak egg roll, bulgogi rice bowl, Thai milk tea, and their pina colada iced tea. The plating itself was incredible (see in photos), but the taste was also outstanding. The meat was sweet like Korean food and had a lot of flavor and sauce with it, the bread they served were crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside (yum!), the piña colada iced tea didn't taste how I expected it to taste (it had a floral taste to it, I was expecting it to taste like a virgin pija colada but I didn't dislike it that much) and the Thai milk tea tasted good. Me and my friend sat at the two person table next to the windows and got some really nice pictures too!

    This is a nice cute warm cafe with very cute decor. It is welcoming and has limited seating. The place does get packed and I saw lot of take outs as well. We were here on a weekday for lunch. Seat was available and so we sat immediately. Limited food menu was good and easy to select from. We placed our lunch order. It was cold outside and every time someone opened the door it would get very chilly inside. So may be they can have a cover so that it does not get very cold. In terms of food, it was delicious. Portions were perfect sized i.e. not too large or small. My main complaint is the long wait time. It took over 40 mins for our food to come out. Looked like the food was ready in the kitchen and just not got to us. I could see food being brought to multiple tables together. Which meant some of the food got cold sitting out there. Hence I deducted one star. Else food was good. I do recommend this cafe for coffee or lunch.

    Cute cafe. We came here on a cold Monday afternoon and it was packed. There was a small line to place an order with people waiting for their takeout orders as well. We were able to place our order in about 5 mins but did not expect the wait of 35+ mins to get our food. The table next to ours got their coffee and avocado toast 30 mins after placing the order. I wish they would have told us they're running behind when we ordered. Now for the food, it was delicious!! We lapped it up within 5 mins. I want to give them a second chance because food was good but I'll probably skip if it looks too crowded when I go back.

    Breakfast burrito

    An absolute gem of a breakfast/lunch spot. My husband and I were looking for something a little different, and were stoked when we found Saigon Grace. The entire menu looked amazing (and reasonably priced!) and it was so hard for us to choose, but we settled on the breakfast burrito and pork banh mi. Both really filling and delicious. We will definitely return next time we visit Philly.

    Coconut Ube drink special
    Tina S.

    I saw a post about Saigon Grace on TikTok and decided to scoot over for a solo lunch. The staff/owner was so friendly and accommodating; it really made my visit wonderful. The inside was very peaceful and quiet, even when guests came in to eat or pick up take out orders. The vibe I got was that it's a nice local spot, perfect for the community. Now the food: I went with the Coconut Ube drink special and I was blown away! It was my first time trying anything with ube so I was a bit skeptical but wanted to try something new and I wasn't disappointed. I also ordered the beef bulgogi bowl and it was delicious! It was a good amount of food, so much so, that I couldn't even finish. I'll definitely be back!

    Did a quick brunch with my daughter! And happened to stop by this adorable cafe. Vietnamese owned, relatively new place, about 4-5months since it opened. Loved the viet-Mexican-Korean influenced menu. We asked for recommendations and tried the salted foam coffee, Thai Thea cream cheese, mango pancakes and the bulgogi banh mi Drinks were great! The wall drink menu has a few more options we missed, like the matcha coconut drink. So check that too! Mango pancakes used dried mangos, since it's in season now, fresh mangoes with a chantilly cream or mango syrup drizzle would have taken this dish to the next level. The banh mi was delish, loved the Kim chi in it as well. The taro fries were a little too oily for me. service was great. Got to chat with the owner and his wife for a bit. Definitely give this place a try!

    bulgogi vermicelli
    Alice L.

    yum! unassuming neighborhood restaurant with good bites. my friend and i decided to check this spot out for lunch, and we really enjoyed it. i had the bulgogi vermicelli, and she had the bulgogi bowl. the bulgogi here is phenomenal -- flavorful and tender. i absolutely love vermicelli bowls, and the one here did not disappoint. i will say, it's pretty expensive for the amount of food given. i think we spent over $20 each for a simple lunch, and it wasn't a crazy amount of food either. their thai iced tea was good too, but the service was a little questionable. i ordered a second thai iced tea to-go for my friend, and they fully forgot about my order and we sat there for a while waiting patiently. they were nice though when i asked them about it, but it was a little disappointing to be forgotten about. i probably wouldn't come back unless someone really wanted to, there are other fantastic vietnamese options in philly.

    Seasonal drink specials!

    Came to this casual spot for a weekend lunch, and it's a good place if you're looking for a mix of Vietnamese, Korean, and Mexican food! When I went, there was probably a half hour wait, as it was pretty popular. You order at the front, and then they'll bring you the food. My friend and I ordered the pork vermicelli bowl and the birria ramen, along with their pina colada iced tea. The tea was super refreshing, and I've also heard good things about their vietnamese coffee! The vermicelli bowl was well balanced, but I wished the birria ramen had more flavor. It's pretty small inside with limited seats, but the service is very fast and friendly. Overall, would come back here again!

    Salted cold foam coffee
    John Michael S.

    I love this place way too much. I keep going and I keep getting more and more impressed. Their food is good. Their drinks are fantastic. The staff is so friendly and welcoming and wonderful. It's a great ambience. It's a wonderful little hidden gem on South Street right across the street from Bob and Barbara's. You really should visit them and enjoy the same experience that I've been having.

    Ube Vietnamese Coffee
    Yesenia M.

    I found this spot after returning from a trip to Vietnam, desperately trying to cope with my Vietnamese coffee withdrawal--and Saigon Grace did not disappoint! In my first few weeks back, I tried their Salted Vietnamese Coffee, Traditional Vietnamese Coffee, and the Ube. All were delicious, but the Ube was definitely my favorite. They really nailed the bold, rich flavors that reminded me of what I had in Vietnam. If you're looking to try a new type of coffee or just want to indulge in a Vietnamese treat, I highly recommend Saigon Grace.

    Cozy, unassuming spot with great food and bevs. I was pleasantly surprised by the fresh taro chips which had a lemon-y flavor that was super refreshing. Little bit far from my place to be a repeat spot but definitely a place worth stopping by. I'm not sure if they have central air or not but it was warm out when we went and they had the windows open and ceiling fans on and it was quite hot inside.

    My family and I got breakfast at Enswell during our stay in Philadelphia. This swanky, hip place…read moreoffers up elevated tasty food and superb service in an exquisitely decorated, albeit small, cafe. We braved negative degree weather for the roughly 10 minute walk from our hotel. We walked in at a good time. This is the type of place where a reservation for breakfast would be required. We were sat immediately. The dining area is tight. A green velvet bench, marble tables, metal chairs, all packed into a small area. You could very well have your butt brush over the table of the patrons next to you if you have to get up for any reason. It's tight. Our server was around quickly. He was super friendly and kept things conversational, light and sophisticated. My wife ordered an iced latte, I had their hot drip coffee. For a starter, we had to try the cinnamon knot bread. While it wasn't what we were expecting, it was good. Although, we wouldn't order again. The bread is presented as a small loaf, room temperature with a cold cream cheese icing drizzled over top. The bread had a mild cinnamon flavor and was dry. It lacked the sweet, moist dough you expect from a cinnamon bread. My wife ordered the French style omelet. This had gruyere cheese and chives. Beautifully plated, perfectly cooked and the taste was spot on. It was good enough to forget that she paid $21 for just an omelet, no meat, no sides. I ordered the Eggs Benedict. Pretty standard here. The eggs had bright orange yolks which is common for farm fresh eggs. The "coffee" hollandaise didn't come across with a coffee flavor but it was rich and went well with the ham and English muffins. One thing that stuck with me was their drip coffee. Not sure if it has been a while since I had a light roast but the Rival Bros. Revolver coffee was so good, I got a bag of whole beans to bring back home with me. I may even order it again online. Enswell succeeded on all fronts. The ambiance and service was great. The decor, impeccable. The food, thoughtful and tasty. The details from the silverware to the plates added to the experience. We would come back.

    So cute inside!! We came here for happy hour and the weird gelato pairings they were doing this…read moremonth. I sampled the gelato, but stuck with cookies and cream which was delicious!! The crab fries and garlic bread are no skips. I hope to come back to try more food! We were lucky to get a table, the hostess was really nice and even found us outside to let us know we could make it! It does get really busy so I felt a bit rushed out but it was all good.
