GREAT FOOD, Great friendly service, clean, roomy and beautifully decorated interior makes SAIGON a must to to spot whenever you're in Wolfsberg, Austria. We were craving Asian food after a few day of traveling in Austria, and learned that there's a few streets (really only a few restaurant) in this area similar to a "Chinatown". Though there's no Chinatown per se, we found Saigon!! And we could t be happier. A hearty hot bowl of pho soup, excellent spring rolls, and authentic Vietnamese iced coffee. We were happy as a clam and our tummies satisfied. Also got our Asian food / noodles / hot soup fix!!! The owner is super friendly and helpful, along with other workers. Highly recommended! read more

I was craving for Vietnamese food while visiting Vienna, so I decided to try Saigon Restaurant right off Naschmarkt. The restaurant is charming and modern. I was impressed with their extensive menu with almost 100 items. Service was good. Food wise was just alright imo. I ordered a several appetizers and entrées to try. Overall, I liked their Pho Dac Biet ( Beef and Beef meatball Pho), Wonton noodles soup and Banh Beo the most. They tasted pretty good and authentic. The rest of my orders were prepared nicely but it's not authentic. I still recommended this restaurant since they did a really good job at their PHO and all of the dishes were really well presented in a traditional way. read more

It's always a great time for Pho, I truly enjoyed the Pho, and the variety roll it was very flavor fully delicious. I enjoyed the refreshing beverage. I did not like the duck much, very bland and not too tender. The staff was very friendly and attentive, very busy restaurant seems to be a local's favorite. Clean, open decor not much to rave about but I like the space. read more

Likely the best Vietnamese food I've ever had! The food was absolutely delicious and portions were just right too. That together with the ambience of the restaurant was too good to miss. It's the perfect location too, just a short walk away from the Kunsthistoriches Museum and Naschmarkt :) Would definitely come back again when I'm in Vienna! Highly recommended :D read more

This is a spacious restaurant with a very inviting and comfortable atmosphere. However, my last visit was not pleasant at all. At least two servers were very sick, coughed and sniffled openly without mask or covering it while we were ordering. The server was also standing very close to us. It was pretty disgusting. It ruined our whole meal as we were worried about getting sick. The summer rolls were pretty small and bland in taste. The water spinach was amazing as was the bok choi with shiitake mushrooms. The catfish was fatty and not very pleasant to eat. Lits of fatty skin. All in all, a very nice restaurant that does not have a great health policy for its employees. Especially in times like these, one cannot allow sick people to work and potentially infect guests. Or at least instruct them to wear masks, or mask their sneezes and coughs. read more

Saigon - Red Bean Drink Lemongrass Tea Raspberry Fizz - Vietnamese Near Me - Vienna, 9

Excellent Vietnamese food and atmosphere at this restaurant. The staff were wonderful and they spoke both German and English. I tried one of my favorites dishes, which is Banh Cuon and it was really tasty. I needed some heat for my food, so the waitress brought me some fresh chopped red chili peppers. The papaya salad with shrimp was made deliciously with the right amount of sweet, salty and sour. My husband enjoyed his grilled pork with rice and the Viennese espresso they served. They also have Vietnamese coffee at this restaurant. The waitress was really wonderful and took her time and conversed with us, making us feel very welcomed in the restaurant. Really excellent Vietnamese food and ambience. read more

We came here on a Sunday because it was one of the rare restaurants open in Vienna. The food was okay - nothing too special for Vietnamese food. I got the duck and rice, and my friend the chicken curry. The duck looked good, but was a little dry and bland. My friend really enjoyed the curry. The interior is built quite nicely, and provides a nice atmosphere for lunch. The service was a little bit slow, but luckily they did speak English. Definitely an okay option if everything else is closed! read more

Fast service! Beautiful interior. Was tired of the fried foods in Vienna so it was nice having lighter food.

A delightful evening was spent here. Sheer food bliss! Saigon is located in a larger establishment close to the museum quarter in Vienna. Ample seating and great for groups. It's also really clean, well decorated and staff were very friendly and helpful during our dinner. Upon arrival we were seated promptly and provided a menu. Options are available in English which is a plus. So, we ordered beef pho, grilled pork with rice noodle, chicken rice paper rolls and another small bowl of beef pho (I couldn't decide what I wanted so I got two meals!) Everything came out at once as per my request. This was done promptly and the food was so fragrant and appealing I couldn't wait to tuck in. The pho- delicious. I often have difficulty with chewy beef but this was no issue today. The noodles with grilled pork was a well seasoned delight; salty, sweet, crunchy, chewy. It was the perfect balance and I enjoyed every bite. The rice paper rolls were also delicious with a lovely dipping sauce to accompany. Just a really impressive meal overall that is decently priced. I was happily full in my belly and we were given complimentary tapioca and coconut puddings which was the perfect sweet finish to the meal. So with all that and two drinks the total came to 40 euros (including tip). Highly reccomended if you're in the area and if you're not, it's definitely worth the journey over. read more

Delicious food, excellent service, and a quiet and calm atmosphere make this the perfect place to choose for dinner after a long day. I went with a group of 10 for the third stop on our Yelp Vietnamese Food Tour. Even with a large group, the service was fast, attentive, and extremely friendly. I had my usual Vietnamese dish (commonly called Bo Bun) of pork and crispy spring rolls over top of a large bowl of vermicelli noodles and shredded lettuce, with a light broth at the bottom of the bowl. This is #100 on the menu. It was very delicious and got better the farther down I went. I recommend mixing the ingredients very well before beginning so that you cover all of the component with that yummy broth! After dinner, they brought us some complimentary bowls of coconut water with tapioca, honey, and banana in it. A nice light finish to the meal! Its convenient location between MQ/Mariahilf and Karlsplatz/Naschmarkt give you no excuse not to try out this lovely restaurant. read more

Saigon - Green tea - Vietnamese Near Me - Vienna, 9

In our four day excursion to Vienna, we ate here twice. This place is really nice looking. Vietnamese restaurants in the U.S. are rarely this fancy, with table cloths, carpet, and fancy chairs. The non-smoking section is right when you walk in, unlike some restaurants that force you to walk through the smoke just to get to the non-smoking section. Compared to the U.S. or even Berlin, the food here is a tad expensive. I tried the crispy duck noodle soup during my first visit, which is 9.50. It was worth it. I don't know how they manage to make duck drenched in broth maintain its crispy skin, but they did. It was perfect. My only minor complaint is that they used those squiggly yellow noodles, when my friends and I assumed we were getting vermicelli. Oh well. The second time I visited I got the crispy duck lunch special for 7 euro. It came with rice, big pieces of crispy duck, sauce, soup, and the house dessert. The rice wasn't traditional Vietnamese broken rice and the house dessert was just mango juice with bits of tapioca, but it was still enjoyable. The crispy duck with rice was good, but not as good as I remember it in soup form. I agree with Marlene, this place is good for groups. We didn't have to wait for a table either time we visited, and the waiters spoke English. read more

Loved this place. And it was very group friendly. The inside is really big but cosy at the same time. The service was really nice. The food was very good and tasty, great portion sizes! The menu is extensive and has more choice than a lot of other Vietnamese restaurants. I shared number 29 (crispy wan tan filled with shrimps and chicken) and then had number 141 crispy roasted chicken with lemongrass and ginger which was extremely good. I want to say that comparing it with the other Vietnamese restaurants I've been to, this place has kind of westernised its menu a little...Lots of fried dishes compared to other Vietnamese places. But I am not an expert in Vietnamese food, so I am not sure! Still....I really enjoyed the food!!! I would definitely recommend it. read more

Really yummy - better than any of the restaurants in New York City. Not as good a Houston or San Jose though. I would totally go back if I lived here. Nice people and they are full blooded Vietnamese making it taste like your back in Saigon. read more

A great Vietnamese restaurant, where almost half of the customers are actually Vietnamese!...Which always is a good sign of authenticity. The local itself is well laid out and beautiful, the staff is discrete but friendly and efficient. As for the food, it is good, fresh and tasty! The sauce might be a bit fat but all in all it remains very healthy. ;) For lunch they have Mittagsmenüs: for a very good price you have a soup or a salad (the sesame pasta on top of the cuncumbers is a great idea!), a main course and a small dessert. I will definitely be back for more' read more

Wasn't the best Vietnamese I've had, but it was pretty okay food for the price. The food wasn't very tasteful, and the fried shrimp tasted like it was re-Fried after it was frozen. The pho on the other hand was fine and the beef broth was pretty decent. read more

We came in super late (probably 40 minutes before they closed) and starving and the waitress who helped us was so gracious! All of the food was phenomenal. We liked it so much we went back for lunch the next day and the same waitress remembered us! Awesome place. Everyone should go! read more

Constantly good quality food. I love the cold Vietnamese spring rolls and the variety of soups they have. Prices are not so bad if you consider that everything is really nice looking and clean whereas many other Vietnamese restaurants are dirtholes... I like it and have been a customer for maaaany years. Good for groups too, they have these tables with a rotating plate in the middle so that you can easily share. read more

I grew-up in San Jose,CA/Little Saigon. Yes, the neighborhood I grew-up in is officially named Little Saigon by the SJ municipality. I know two or three things about Vietnamese food. Upon arriving to Vienna, all I wanted was my bowl of steaming pho tai bo and ca phe sua da amongst the sea of kebab and 5 euro, 50%-off AKTION sushi. When my Viennese friends suggested Saigon for my pho craving, I was skeptical. Real skeptical. Vienna doesn't have a strong Vietnamese diaspora, as say Munich or Paris, and too many AKTION Asian food specials turned me into an Asian food cynic. For those of you who grew-up in the Vietnamese diaspora or simply love Vietnamese, ignore the skeptism and hurry down to Karlzplatz A.S.A.P. I started with my beloved pho bo tai, sliced beef pho. Simple, delicious and a classic. Saigon's pho had a nice rich broth with the perfect sliced beef ratio to noodles and broth. For Vietnamese food novices, pho is customizable and no (wo)man's pho is the same. I personally like mine with the usual herb garnishes dumped into my bowl, extra lime, no hoisin sauce (that little black-ish goopy sauce next to the chili) and simple. If you want spice, each table is set with its 4 sauce assortment of nuoc mam with chili and 3 variations of chilis. Experiment and see what works for you. To my Central European friends, remember and sing this with me: ca phe sua da. Vietnamese iced coffee, strong fresh brewed cold coffee balanced by a dollop of condensed milk and ice. Until the day comes where I can ship an East SJ Vietnamese restaurant complete with a "Paris by Night" soundtrack and aging aunties, Saigon is this Californian's Vietnamese pho place in Wien. read more

Cozy yet spacious environment, great service and the food is wonderful. The spicy Chicken Curry Pot was excellent so look forward to trying this place again. Many of the meals could be modified to fit Paleo or Vegetarian diners. The rice noodle were on the side so it was easy to make it grain-free. The presentation of the food was very notable as they used lovely edible garnishes including flowers and pineapple bowls. It appeared that I had 4 waiters and all were very friendly and hospitable. Best service I have had so far in Vienna! read more

My first Vietnamese experience in Vienna and it was lovely! The staff were friendly, the place is big but has a cosy feel and of course what I came for ... the Pho was excellent! I had the Pho with Beef, Pork and seafood, good ratio if meat to noodle and really very tasty with the extra sprinkling of coriander and spring onion. The price was also reasonable €9.90 for the Pho. All in all a very friendly and tasty experience :) read more

Saigon - The beef balls, pork and seafood Pho .. Number 65 on the menu - Vietnamese Near Me - Vienna, 9

In desperate need of Asian food, we decided to go here bc our host recommended the place (she knew the owner). We walk in and immediately I think to myself that this place looks pretty fancy for a Vietnamese place. Not that Vietnamese restaurants can't be fancy but I'm just used to eating at pho places that aren't too much about the decor.. I digress. Anywho, I ordered the monk fish and pho tai. The monk fish was good and the pho was okay as well. Nothing amazing but I wasn't expecting much since we were in Vienna. It tasted good enough for my craving, especially after going hard the night before. I got one pho tai to go bc it seems like you can't get any type of delivery here and this place is a ghost town at night. The food hit the spot again. read more

Came here DESPERATE for a green veggie and for anything spicy. I had read a million reviews and nearly cried from joy when I heard someone *complain* about how spicy everything was here. Nothing gets me into a restaurant like a complaint about the spice, and I am eternally grateful to the poor soul whose mouth had to suffer in order to alert me to this hidden gem. I came here at 2pm on a Sunday and was surprised how busy, and spacious Saigon Restaurant was! The decor was lovely and quaint, and the open windows on the quiet street were so refreshing on such a hot day. My friend and I both ordered coconut curry pho, and stressed to the server that we wanted it HOT. We were not disappointed. It might have ben 34 degrees out but nothing kept me from diving headfirst into the delicious pho. If I could have eaten the entire portion I would have. Everything about it was what I wanted and for 11 Euros I could not complain about quality or quantity. To say I will be back is an understatement, this will be my first stop every time I visit Vienna. Thank you to Saigon Restaurant for making a day in Vienna a culinary experience! read more

For those of you whose diet may not tolerate the traditional Austrian diet (ie pork sausages, lots of bread and cheese, total lack of vegetables and greens), Saigon is a good alternative in the touristy downtown. The pho was good, but beware that this place is very popular and it may be hard to get a table on a busy night. The one star off was because I showed up towards the end of the night when there clearly was a table or two available but was told to come back later. A fellow diner coaxed the owner to get a table ready for me, and I was so grateful to this guy- I was so hungry that night. read more

Good Vietnamese restaurant located just around the corner from Karlsplatz and the Museumquarter. My wife had Pho soup which was delicious and a Vietnamese restaurant staple for us. I has grilled pork and rice (#77). The pork was perfectly cooked and had a nice topping of scallions and something else I couldn't quite pinpoint but it was delicious. We came with a two year old and were happy they could accommodate small children. They had a babychair and brought out a fish shaped plate to keep him occupied. They have a separate non smoking section which is a huge plus. Not only is it in a completely separate side of the restaurant but there is also a glass partition. Service was good and we were happy with the attention to our son as well as not all restaurants are so welcoming to kids. They probably delivered the best service we have had at any restaurant so far in Vienna. read more

We arrived at our hotel in Vienna, starving teenagers with us, and wanted something quick and casual. Saigon is really convenient to the museum and opera district. The place looks clean and welcoming with tasteful decor. The restaurant doors are widely open to the street so there is traffic noise and a couple of flies come in. The staff are courteous and they speak English. I had the chicken curry with veg, lovely fresh salad, also the fried spinach as a side dish. Others in the party had fried beef noodles, beef with lemon grass, and crispy duck noodles. All good and tasty. Portions are fairly large. You could split a portion with a friend. For four people with a bottle of water, one beer and a soda it was 66 euro. That included the appetizer sampler plate which I thought was the only pricey item at 13 euro. Overall we were very happy. read more

I come here in my last night before leaving Vienna. After one and a half week in Europe, my body asking for Asian food. I do search in yelp and find out this restaurant. It s big restaurant with a lot of tables, waiter are helpful with the seat. Menu are English with the picture so you will not have to guess that how it will become. I order goi guan which is the soft spring roll in Vietnamese style which taste standard and the sauce is a little bit salty. Another appetizer is Goi ca which it the fish salad, this dish is delicious. Fresh fish cooked with seasoning and fresh vegetable make me feel fresh. My main is the Bun Bo which look like Pho Beef but more spicy but not too spicy. The soup is good with lots of herbs make me feel better in the rainy day. They have a lot of dishes which I did not try. If you looking for something Asian which make you feel fresh and energized, I think Saigon will be the answer. read more

Phenomenal find. Terrific Vietnamese food and English menu for the traveling tourist. We ordered the vegetarian summer rolls, the vegetarian coconut curry, and the vegetable and tofu noodles with fish sauce. All were excellent. Good draft beer too. They gave us a complimentary coconut milk dessert which was much appreciated. Would make it a point to come back next time I am in Vienna. read more

Stumbled upon this place one night while searching for nearby pubs. Went here the next day for lunch after a night of heavy drinking, and it was exactly what I needed. It is a big, very clean restaurant. The service was pretty fast as well. I ordered the chicken pho with some summer rolls as my appetizer. The soup was amazing. The broth was very tasty and clean, not greasy at all. They use white meat for the chicken, and the chicken was basically shredded, so you didn't need to cut up large pieces of meat and stuff. They don't have sriracha, but they have a plethora of hot sauces that work just as fine. Also, I believe the entire waitstaff speak at least some English, so communication wasn't an issue for me as a stupid American. In conclusion, if you're in Vienna and want a nice hot bowl of pho, go to this place. Just do it! read more
