    Actual updated menu. The menu that shows on the photos is old and not Updated. The prices are different from online as well

    Food was ok. Staff were friendly. Located in the same plaza as Target and a few other retail shops. It wasn't super busy but there were a few customers.

    Bún vermicelli bowl with bean sprouts, when I specifically asked for NO bean sprouts.

    Saigon Noodle House; Goleta, CA Ordered: Special Combination Pho Bún (Vermicelli) Chicken fried rice Review: As soon as you step into the doors, there is a sign that says to take a menu from the basket & take a seat wherever you want. I appreciate being able to choose our own seats, but the menus are printed on regular paper & tri-folded. Most menus have gotten wet & are wrinkly and/or stained. That should have been the first red flag... Special Combination Pho- The pho was very underwhelming. The broth came out dark, which indicates that they leave the pho spice bag way too long in the pot before taking it out. The broth tasted heavily of spices, particularly cinnamon, which overpowered the beef flavor of the broth (you couldn't taste the beef flavoring at all). They only give you a small pinch of bean sprout, 1 basil stem, & 2 thin slices of jalapeños. The size regular ($15) is really small compared to other places, so I recommend just getting the large ($16) for $1 extra if you truly wanted to give the pho a chance. Rating: 2/10. Bún (Vermicelli)- The bowl first came out visually appetizing. I poured the chili sauce that came with the bún into the bowl & as I was mixing the sauce into the bún, I noticed the oil from the meat that was under all the veggies. After incorporating the sauce into the bún, the whole bowl became oily & there was no flavor to the bowl whatsoever. I also specifically asked the server for no bean sprout & they served us the bowl with bean sprout. There was no attention to detail at all. Additionally, the sauce bowl was cracked from top to bottom (picture attached), so sauce was spilling all over the table. Rating: 2/10. Chicken fried rice- The fried rice came at a good portion size with enough pieces of chicken in it. The only thing I would say they could do better is with the seasoning- the fried rice was on the saltier side. Although they do serve it with a side of their pho broth with 4 pieces of small, cubed tofu in it, the broth is overpowered by the strong cinnamon flavoring & it does not pair well with the salty fried rice. Rating: 4/10. Overall, I would not return to Saigon Noodle House. The food is below average, the staff's attention to customer's requests go unnoticed, & it left a bad taste in our mouth (no pun intended).

    Cheap food, but you get what you pay for. The menus are these really old pieces of paper which can't be that sanitary? Flavor was ok, felt that the meat was a bit over cooked. The vegetables in the vermicelli bowl also weren't very fresh.

    Yum! My cousin goes to UCSB & said this place was very delicious, so I had to give it a shot. The waitresses are attentive & helpful. The pho is delicious! This is by far the most delicious, richest, and authentic pho I've ever eaten! I got a large Beef & Flank & it was an actual large with loads of noodles & broth! The pricing is awesome for the quantity & quality of this pho! I can't wait until my cousin needs a ride again from SB & I'll just have to make a stop here! :)

    Brisket Pho

    Saigon Noodle House is my favorite place to get pho in the SB/Goleta area. The broth and meat is always delicious and noodles cooked perfectly. I'm really not sure why it doesn't get good reviews because I've always really liked it.
