This review is for a delivery order but I also dined in a couple months ago with the same thoughts about the food. Thai tea w/boba - lacking Thai tea flavor, sadly. Boba was nice and soft and chewy though. Garden rolls - super fresh with good sauce. Pork vermicelli with summer rolls - The pork was slightly overcooked for my taste and not as flavorful as I'd like. The noodles seemed freshly made and felt fatter than I'm used to from other places. I don't know how to really explain it, other than it seemed to have more moisture in them. Additionally, and oddly, the fish sauce didn't seem to give the dish much flavor as well. Was the food good? Yes. Just good. Decent for a delivery order and the delivery was on time w/a friendly delivery person. read more

Food is good. Service is not. Utilitarian dining room which would be fine with better service...food took forever. 25 min for spring rolls to start. Asked for extra basil for pho and again 25 min later and never got it. And they didn't care. Had to go to counter and wait to pay. read more

The vegetarian pho was very bland. It didn't have any flavor at all. The only additional sauces were the brown sauce and sriracha. I won't return because the food was not good at all. I like supporting and trying new businesses but this Pho place is just not for me. They also didn't have many vegetarian options which pretty much limited my choice to this one meal which was fine with me but just a heads up to others. read more

Low key but delicious pho on a nice colder spring night! Service was nice and quick which led to an overall great meal. A good competition for our usual spot in old town read more

I saw this place a few weeks ago when I was walking downtown and decided to finally try them! I ordered via doordash and then came to pick it up. I got the dark meat chicken pho and an order of egg rolls. The egg rolls were nice and crispy and had a great flavor and came with a tangy dipping sauce. The pho was packed nicely with the broth in one container, and then the noodles and meat in another. There was a separate baggie with the bean sprouts, basil, limes and jalapeños. The portion size of the pho was really nice, I was able to eat two helpings and also share with my partner. In the future, i'd be sure to add extra noodles for my leftovers. This place is a great value for the cost. They also have boba and I can't wait to try it. My only negatives were that some of my toppings weren't the freshest (mushy Black bean sprouts, bruised basil) and I don't think the the chicken was seasoned, but I guess once you jazz your broth that doesn't matter too much. read more

Love this place! Was looking for an alternative to Caphe Banh Mi since I don't like their customer service and I'm so glad I found this spot. The pho is tasty, service is fast and super friendly, and even their takeout is on point. Their rolls are super tasty and I also love their lemongrass chicken. Great portions too (see pic) and not cheap like Caphe Banh Mi! read more

I love this place. Tonight, the weather was bad, I was home alone (with the dog) and I wanted - no - needed - the caramelized clay pot fish. Thankfully, I have the internet at my fingertips and was able to make that dish appear on my doorstep with a few points and clicks. It was as good or better than the last two times I ordered it in the restaurant. It is exquisite. It is satisfying. It is utterly delicious, in a balanced, savory, velvety, melt in your mouth way. That's all. read more

One of the worst viet restaurants I've been too - had the pork chops with rice dish, and sliced beef dish. The pork was very dry and served cold??? Clearly old meat i would feed my dog, not my patrons at $16. The sliced beef was very fatty and low quality meat. Will not return, shame. read more

Stumbled into this place after leaving Anthropologie on a rainy day (It's right next door). The pho was calling my name... Walked in to be seated immediately by a super friendly male host. We ordered the dark meat chicken pho, egg rolls, fresh rolls, and Thai tea. Food was served quickly and the pho broth was piping, proper hotness! So comforting in the dreary weather! The tea in the Thai tea was potent, just how I liked it, to balance out the sweet and creamy. The egg rolls were top tier, the fresh rolls were a bit chewy. Nevertheless, Pho Nam is a great place to get your Pho fix, fast and friendly! read more

Just got the worst Vietnamese noodle bowls in my life. Order two pork vermicelli noodle bowls and when I opened the boxes, I literally said WTF. There was a skimpy amount of pork and they also skimped on the fresh herbs and lettuce-- I received a scant handful of lettuce and probably the equivalent of two basil leaves. There were also no crushed peanuts and the fish sauce that came with it was extremely diluted. To top it off, there was a piece of aluminum foil or metal in my food. Horrible presentation, horrible product. I'll never be back. read more

A decent pho place around Old Town! My husband and I ordered banhmi sandwiches and a bowl of pho! The banhmi sandwiches were both good. One was the house special, which included vietnamese ham and french-style pate, along with other toppings of picked carrots, radish, green onion, cilantro, and jalapenos. The other sandwich was the chicken sandwich. I preferred the chicken, which was seasoned as grilled lemongrass, and also had similar garnishes to the other sandwich. We also ordered a pho bowl, which was good, but a tad too salty for my taste. The sandwich prices were extremely reasonable for old town - $7 each! The pho bowls were a bit more expensive than what I would have preferred - think it was around ~$14 each. Overall, it's nice to see another pho place in Old Town! read more

There was hair in my food twice when I went. Both times were when I ordered a sandwich, so order the pho instead, I'm kidding don't. They don't take too kindly to strangers so make sure you're Vietnamese when you enter. The old place was better, the service, the atmosphere, the food even (no hair). Oh how I miss the old times. Well on to the next Vietnamese place, they're a dime a dozen anyway. read more

Ambiance is good; space is great with good accessibility for scooters and WC. Service is okay i wish servers have name tags one taking orders not sure if he is happy to serve us. Not sure what is wrong in Old Town restaurant they keep giving your bill when i just ordered a dessert and did not asked for it yet; he did not apologize and closing time is 3 more hours. I think he might be the owner manager cook etc whatever. Food is great except pho is somewhat salty fried spring rolls burn my tongue and dessert sticky rice with mango was very good the best. Pork banh mi was superb until my husband went to the restroom and passing by the kitchen door was open container of soup is wide open clutters everywhere oh well that might be reason food was delicious. So that guy must be the cook as well oh well read more

We tried out their pho and banh mi. Easy, fast, delicious takeaway! #2 pho was good, but would recommend their pho w fat and well done brisket. #M3 bahn mi w lemongrass pork was tasty, bread was great! Gorgeous restaurant inside if you're looking for a date night off king street! read more

Saigon Rolls - Easy, fast, delicious takeaway. - Vietnamese Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

After reading multiple positive reviews I decided to go. This was a mistake as most reviewers apparently do not know what good Vietnamese food is all about. I had the pho #1 with different pieces of meat. Many were full of fat and crunchy as in cheap meat. My wife had some beef over noodles. The beef was average and in small quantity and the noodles were overcooked. The setting of the restaurant is also cold and unattractive. Not going back. read more

A easy four stars. My wife and son both enjoyed their Pho (I enjoyed want they didn't finish). My lemongrass chicken was good. Not sure it was the right thing to order but term flavor was good. It was basically grilled chicken with lemongrass marinade with white rice. Worth a visit. If you like Pho. read more

Food, amazing. Service, faster than you'll be able to read this review! We ordered the egg rolls and it came with a sauce that I didn't expect but it was SO good and with the egg roll. The egg roll was different from other places that I've had which made it that much better in my opinion. Now down to the nitty gritty, the pho. We both got the beef based broth. I got the number 7 and added well done brisket and my partner got the number 9. The food broth was and noodles were SO good that I could've got a bowl of that alone and still would've been fully satisfied. The broth was full of flavor and the noodles had the most perfect bite. The meat wasn't the star of the show but I will note that it was still good. All in all, I'll be going back. HIGHLY recommend read more

The food here was great & we had no complaints. We got bun and bahn mi. The tofu bahn mi and summer rolls are delicious and everything was fresh. Stop here if you want a quick bite with lots of flavor. Service was fast and the restaurant was clean & fairly quiet despite having a healthy number of guests. Plenty of veg options as well. And they have high chairs for young diners. read more

When we were seated, there was only one other table and a woman who ordered to go. We ordered our meals, and the server pretty much ignored us until it was time to pay, yet the 4 tables who were seated after us got all the attention. I had to go to the counter to get sauces and utensils that they brought to the other tables automatically. The food was decent, but service really does go a long way, and I don't think we'll be back. We were really excited to try a new place, since we live so close, but being ignored is a real turn off. read more

We would stop in once a month or so for pho since we live around the corner. Wasn't that surprised when they closed, since we were often the only ones in there when we stopped on. Walked by today, had a lovely chat with new owner while we waited for our order. I got the shrimp pho- full of huge plump shrimp- but the broth was unbelievably tasty. My husband scarfed up his brisket pho uttering words of amazement. We got it to go and everything was packaged so well and looked so very tasty. We also split the spring rolls which were crispy and stuffed with deliciousness. The place is now bright, airy, and inviting. Didn't see the drink menu til after we ordered but will definitely include a fresh limeade and eat in next time. All the staff were wonderfully kind and pleasant, the renovations have made this into a very bright, beautiful place to enjoy amazing food. Wishing them all the luck with the new place. We will certainly be back! read more

The food here was great! I was here on a school trip which had largely bad food so when we found this place we very pleasantly surprised. The pho broth was very rich tasting and my friends who were vegetarians had a very good tofu and rice plate. Overall 10/10 food and the staff was very nice to us. read more

Saigon Rolls - Chicken pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

Service is fast and a lot of space between tables. The price is around right based on the location. However, there is a lot room for improvement on the quality of food and cooking. The food still tasty depending on your standard. I do see a lot of orders for take out. The portion of pho is a little small from my perspective. I don't feel the cooking style is authentic comparing to other Vietnamese cuisine in Arlington area. Overall it is average. read more

I had heard good things about Pho Nam in Old Town Alexandria, so last night I tried it for the first time. I ordered ahead of time on the phone and when I went in to pick up my takeout, I was warmly greeted by two staff members. It's easy to tell they're a friendly, family-owned restaurant. They were out of brisket so I ordered the beef flank pho, and I was blown away. The broth was definitely the star of the show--it was so flavorful! Plenty of noodles & toppings were included. I think I finished my bowl in record time. Next time I'm in Alexandria, I can't wait to try a banh mi. read more

3 1/2 stars. Decent pho and cha gio (egg rolls). For the pho, the broth was definitely flavorful. The noodles were fresh and not sticky despite the order being carryout. I think they could have provided a little more meat though. The egg rolls were solid. One thing I would ask more is a little more dipping sauce. Overall not a bad place to get some quick Vietnamese cuisine. read more

When I heard a new Pho joint was opening up, I was excited. Love Vietnamese food and supporting local business. Plus, caphe Bahn mi and Sunday in Saigon were the only walkable joints, and they were owned by same person. I like competition. This is was for take out, and boy was I underwhelmed. Iced coffee was tiny, mostly ice and not even filled all the way. Giving it an extra star because my wife said it was actually good. Their noodles I fell flat on its face. I get the same thing in Eden center and caphe Bahn mi it it's probably double the size, fresher ingredients. It was just flat. I can't speak on the pho, because I haven't tried that. Probably won't given my take out experience. Note to owner: it's a Hard economy and I want you to succeed. But you gotta do better for take out, especially in this environment. Don't be skimpy on the ingredients read more

Quite nice on a cold or sunny day in Alexandria. I have had many Pho restaurants in the Arlington/Falls Church and Alexandria area and this one is by far better than any of those. What stood out the most is the broth of the Pho... it was clean and very flavorful. Tbh, the only good place to eat on King Street that is affordable. Great service and a family friendly environment. They are also really clean and take a lot of precautions to make you feel comfortable dining in with covid rates sky rocketing. FYI... I am Vietnamese and quite critical when it comes to Vietnamese food, especially Pho. read more

I don't eat Vietnamese food that often. But this place was recommended to me by someone who does so I decided to try it. I believe the establishment is new. My husband and I came here for dinner. I thought we were going to share meals but that didn't happen lol. We ordered 2 shrimp rolls (1 order comes with 2 rolls) and 2 entrees. I had a chicken bahn mi and he had a noodle dish. The food was so good and flavorful I had to run it back the next day. Since my initial visit, I have been here probably 5 times in 1.5 months. I was actually surprised at how flavorful the sweet tea was. DELICIOUS!!! The food is good. I'm supporting local business. The only draw back is that its in Old Town Alexandria. Parking can be challenging read more

Love that Pho Nam delivers just wish the food was better. Ordered the lemongrass chicken vermicelli bun and was seriously disappointed.l because I typically LOVE this dish. The sauce was off had red pepper flakes in it, there were no fresh herbs, no cucumber and of course it didn't taste right. My husband's chicken pho ga was better, tasty and a decent option. The jury is still out of we'd order again. read more

This restaurant is new as of 02/25, so all the bad reviews must be from the previous restaurant?? All I know is the food and service were awesome! Owner has another spot in the Eden Center and made an effort to come around and talk to our table. Loved this spot and will be back read more

Super delicious food and a pleasant place to eat. Great service and friendly staff. Will be back

Let me start by saying I'm a huge pho snob. I was so happy that a pho restaurant opened in the area finally. Nice clean place run by really kind folks! I was really surprised by the broth. The flavors were there and it satisfied by pho craving. I would say that the broth was on the lighter side for sure. I just wish they'd give more meat. Felt lacking a little bit. But I'd definitely recommend. Great price point and convenient location! read more

Fantastic food, atmosphere and service. I loved brisket and tendon (if you're live wellness, collagen heaven), also the vegan and vegetarian options. Been here 3 times already in two weeks. Caramelized fish, Pho, and curries hit the spot especially in the winter. read more

As a visitor this was a gem to stumble on. Amazing food and the owner was so kind and jovial!

Fantastic place if you want authentic and good quality Vietnamese food. I ordered the grilled beef (Com Bo Nuong) which was very flavorful and grilled perfectly, and my friend ordered the well done brisket Pho which had a rich broth a generous portion of the tender and tasty brisket. Overall, great service that comes with with a cozy and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend! read more
