This is just one of the best places on Earth. I've never had a restaurant be so hospitable. During a previous visit they gave us some fresh oranges to enjoy while we wait. This time we were given oranges and cantaloupe and they were laid out beautifully! Some friends and I ordered vermicelli combinations and you can bet that this meal was nothing short of amazing. I wish this family the best and I hope they are further recognized in the community. They gave amazing, hospitable service and that's the type of place I'd always want to return to.

Came on a rainy day in search of a nice hot bowl of pho. The parking situation is a little crazy because the parking lot is small & shared, but I managed to snag a spot. The restaurant wasn't too busy on a weekday afternoon so the service was nice and fast! I love the community that the ladies have built with their customers, which was evident as people walked in and they both happily greeted one another and started catching up before placing an order. Onto the food, I ordered the smallest bowl combination bowl of pho. For the price, the bowl was small and not the most filling with only a small amount of meat. The soup was also some of the sweetest soup that I have ever had so I had to add tons of salt to fix it to my taste. I love sweet savory foods, but it was almost too much in my opinion. I would definitely return to try other items on the menu, but would probably skip the pho in the future.

Came here on a Saturday around 7:30 pm. There was plenty of parking and only one group inside. We were greeted and seated immediately. The women working were all quick, attentive, and friendly. The inside is spacious and has a lot of Asian art and decoration. I decided to get Appetizers 1 and 8 for the pork egg rolls and Vietnamese crepe for the two of us to share. For entrees my boyfriend got the large N13. Hot and spicy beef soup and I got the large N5. Egg noodle wonton soup. The pork egg rolls came first. They were crispy and flavorful but the vinegar dipping sauce was weak and the only vegetables were 2 slices of cucumber. I assume most of the patrons for this restaurant don't appreciate a strong dipping sauce or wrapping the egg rolls in veg. I wouldn't get egg rolls from here again because i didn't think it was worth $12.50 compared to other places I've had. The crepe was good and crispy. No complaints here besides the dipping sauce. They provided lots of veg (but I would have liked some mint & Thai basil, they did have a lot of cilantro). The crepe wasn't gigantic like it normally is but had a lot of shrimp and bean sprouts. I really enjoyed my soup as it was pretty flavorful but a little on the sweet side. The noodles were interesting, I've never had egg noodles that looked like them. There was a lot of bbq pork, shrimp, and wontons. I think people who are more sensitive to trying new things (nothing wrong with that!) but WANT to try new things would find this is a good restaurant to try. Not the best Vietnamese ever but still pretty good and a good place to be introduced to the cuisine

This is a lovely local restaurant. The service is decent and attentive. The pho I had was pretty good. I like the broth, as there was no aftertaste, and the toppings were fresh. However, the meat was not my favorite. The ambiance is small and quaint, but the place is very clean and tidy. I believe this will be one of my go-to pho spots in town. PS, the Thai tea was delicious. I pretty much swallowed it. Nice place.

Chicken pho

Saigon is my favorite pho restaurant. The chicken pho always hits the spot. The fresh coconut was absolutely amazing.

We're so glad to be back here for the second time! This place has a lovely, cozy atmosphere and the staff are incredibly friendly. The pho is absolutely amazing - I'm hooked! Thanks to them, I'll definitely be coming back. And what a lovely touch - receiving fresh fruit after the meal makes you feel right at home.

The most amazing and delicious pho I have ever had in Bakersfield!…read more There's plenty of parking, it shares the lot with other stores but there's always parking. The restaurant was so clean and relaxing. Definitely felt comfortable and welcomed. The service was 10/10. We even asked for recommendations and they did not disappoint. If you're in the mood for something cozy then I highly recommend this place. I frequently go whenever it's cold or raining just because it hits the spot! Love it!

There I was... laying in bed... coughing... hacking. Test myself for COVID... it was negative…read more Anyways longstory short I lived the ordeal but needed soup DURING the ordeal. In comes my relationship with the Wonton soup. Quite frankly the relationship was inappropriate, toxic even. It really wasn't that good but I kept ordering it ???? With a touch of MSG and some probably costco bought wontons, I slowly returned to my original form. Now flip the narrative. One day after work I'm kinda sad... being an LA boy I missed my asian cuisine. Mom was out at MahJong and dad was idk planting flowers or something (he's retired now so I guess he picked up Botany). Out comes the beef chow fun. Quite frankly it itched my chinese tickle. You know its good when it's named "fun." That's "noodles" in Mandarin for my non-Mandarin friends. 5 out of 5. This ain't the country side of BeiJing but it'll do.

You can tell the broth has been simmered for a long time because the flavor was so deep and comforting. I also tried the chicken bowl, which was really good too.

Great portions, great flavor, and definitely a spot I'll be coming back to when I'm craving pho. Highly recommend! Service was good.

Too much hoisin, not enough peanut flavor. Pho was good, broth had a nice flavor. Nothing to really blow me away, but good enough that I would have it again. I was bummed about the toppings plate though because it came with cilantro and lemons instead of basil and limes. Never seen that before. I really enjoy the flavor of the basil, so that was disappointing. People working there today were very nice, but it felt like they were understaffed and it was kind of chaotic trying to get a table for just myself and my young child. We stood among people waiting for pick up orders for a long time without being addressed. There was no clear queue, just several people waiting around the entrance. When I finally got someone's attention she was friendly and quickly got me a table and high chair.
