Came here for lunch on a weekend (green phase of Covid-19). Ordered takeaway of their fresh spring rolls and their spicy lemongrass beef broth flavor. Total came out to approximately $18. What's Hot - Menu. Simple and straightforward. There's noodle soup, rice dishes, plain noodle dishes without soup, chicken, seafood, beef, tofu, Vietnamese sandwiches, spring rolls, fried spring rolls, boba teas, and smoothies. Anything and everything you can want. Btw, you can find their menu on their Facebook page! - Price. My order of 2 dishes was approximately $18. The spring rolls are $5 and my pho was $12. Reasonably priced, especially given the ingredients and portions. - Quality. The fresh spring rolls have shrimp, which I like better. The fillings also have fresh mint and chives. Definitely added to the flavor. Their dipping sauce is flavorful, fragrant and legit. Their spicy lemongrass pho broth is actually spicy and flavorful. Their pho comes with fish balls, imitation crab meat, and shrimp. No skimping on the add ins. Trust me dudes, I'm a native Cali girl whose had lots of legit pho in my lifetime. I know! Haha... - Portions. Pretty good portions, especially for the price. My container with the broth was definitely filled to the brim. No skimping, which I appreciate. The only struggle was I had to be careful not to put everything in my broth bowl at once, otherwise the broth would overflow. Given the givens, though? That's not a bad problem to have. - Service. Quick and friendly. I called in my takeaway order and asked how long it would take. Staff said about 5 minutes and he wasn't wrong. They're quick! Everything was ready when I arrived. My spring rolls were individually wrapped in saran wrap, which is better, because it prevents the spring rolls from drying out. The broth was in its own bowl. The noodles and toppings (bean sprouts, jalapeño slices, mint leaves, and cilantro) were in a separate container. - Flexibility. During this time of Covid-19, they have 2 tables outside of their restaurant for their customers. My friend and I ate outside at one of the tables, which we appreciated. What's Not - No avocado smoothie. I asked for their avocado smoothie, but they did not have it that day. Oh well. On the one hand, that's a good thing cuz it tell me they use actual avocados. Some places make their avocado smoothies with a powder. On the other hand, that does mean their ingredients are seasonal so they may not have everything on their menu. - Location. It's in McKees Rocks, which isn't that close to me, but oh well... Final Answer Pretty good. Not easy finding a legit pho restaurant in this area. It's worth it, though! read more

Update: I literally come here once a week. They are consistently amazing, and the food is always SO fresh. I didn't think it could get any better than the banh mi, but tonight I gave the banh uot flat rice noodle bowl a try, and WOW, it was so flavorful! It was served with a savory dressing that brought the entire dish together. This place keeps amazing me, and it's my new go to. I crave something from here weekly now. Can't wait to try the entire menu. read more

It's decorated lovely. Their food is amazing and the people are very friendly. Never had an issue there before. I like to stop by when I'm in town. It's a great place for finding your comfort food.

Excellent food. My best friend and I were looking for authentic noodles... this place hit the spot. The pho was perfect, and the ramen broth is yummy. The service was excellent, they were super nice and accommodating. It's a small family owned business so it can be a bit cramped but it's a small price to pay for excellent food and service. read more

On a whim I ordered sushi here about a year ago, and since then, it's become the go-to sushi and banh mi location for me and my husband, as we live less than 5 minutes away. It's always fresh and reasonably priced. The last time we ordered, our meals were slightly scrambled and there were a few errors, but still delicious. Their spring rolls are also amazing! read more

Argubly the best pho in Pittsburgh-area after Two Sisters in East Liberty closed, imo, in terms of quality. Delicious beef Pho and Bánh mì and very clean place to sit down and enjoy! Wonderful staff too! read more

This is a great little local place in a convenient location to grab some food that the Robinson area quite frankly needs more of! I've tried pho, sushi, and a Bahn mi and everything has been fresh and delicious. The pho is enough for two servings, easily.

Food was great, Pho broth was so flavourful, food can out quick. Owners were very nice!

Clean, comfortable, and cheery. Everyone here was exceptionally nice and welcoming - and the food did not disappoint. My wife and I just moved out of the city and into the suburbs and we were worried that we wouldn't be able to find good pho near our new house. This restaurant proved us wrong and we're so glad it's here. We will be back often. read more

This place ROCKS. My partner and I frequent here. Our personal favorites are the pork banhmi, the volcano roll, and tnt roll. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and so great to talk to. If you're wondering where to eat at, and this place is in your suggestions... GO! Their spring rolls are fresh and so delightful. We will always chose this place over another. They hold a special place in our hearts and stomachs! read more

I definitely love that decent Viet food can now be had and I tried a large portion of their menu. The main gripe I have is that the containers used for the noodle soups are just way too tall and narrow to eat out of, particularly for dining in. I recommended to management and initially they provided a nice bowl for dine-in and I thought that would be the norm but then they stated it was the last time and they were not doing that for us again. Basically, we were not welcome back anymore because of this simple idea. That is fine but really the recommendation is not just for us but for all customers in general for a better dine-in experience. Takeout containers would be appropriate if we could properly eat out of it, especially for noodle bowls and noodle soups. read more

Delicious food and an amazing staff. I have tried several items on the menu and everything has been fantastic and the staff is so friendly while we wait. My favorites are the crispy dumplings and Pho, but my fiancé loves the Banh Mi. We've always gotten our food to go, but they have a cute seating area and a welcoming environment. 10/10. read more

I've been on the hunt for good Vietnamese food and finally found something close! It is no Philly, Washington DC, or California, but man does Saigon 88 deliver. This is an authentic restaurant offering a varierty of Pho, Vermicelli Noodles, Broken rice, and Banh Mi! You can also order bubble (tapioca) tea drinks or just some crunchy spring rolls. You know you're in for a good meal when you walk in. There is a delicious aroma the moment you get out of your car and smell the star anise in the lot. The Pho broth is hot, flavorful. The vegetables are fresh and crunchy. The banh mi has lots of meat, in a crunchy loaf of bread. Tastes like my childhood and will be here again for sure! read more

I love pho, so I was glad to find Saigon Express! I had the pho noodle soup with tofu, which was delicious. A very reasonable portion, with all the usual toppings. The Massaman curry was also tasty! It is spicy, so beware if you have a mild palate. Service was also great. Will return! read more

This place is amazing! I went there last week for lunch. It was my first visit. I had the spicy ramen with fresh rolls. I have to say it was the best ramen and rolls I have ever had. Although a bit pricey, I will be visiting often. I wish the owner would consider offering a frequent customer perk. I would probably go weekly! I would also like to add that the place was very clean and the staff very friendly. Do yourself a favor and check it out! read more

One of the top 5 restaurants in the entire Pittsburgh area. Ramen as good as some of the best places in Los Angeles and incredible sushi rolls. But the best part is the service. Nicest and most hospitable people you could ever hope for at a restaurant. Well done! read more

New pho place in town? We definitely have to check it out! We came here on a Friday night as the store had recently opened. At first, it seemed as the restaurant was set up as a takeout place but we didn't think much of it. We ordered the special pho $11, the thick noodles with pork $9.50 and the fresh spring rolls. As we were paying, I noticed that there was a tip section which we did tip but later on realized that it was self service. We had to clean after ourselves which made me wonder why did we even tip or why they had that line for tips if you have to get sauces/clean yourself. As far as the food, it was good but in my opinion not worth the price. All the food came out in take out containers although we told them that we were eating in. The pho had a good broth but due to the size of the container, we probably got 1/2 the portion of what you would usually get at a viet restaurant. The thick noodles were decent but I was disappointed to find a ton of veggies at the bottom and not as many noodles. The fresh spring roll was ok. The skin was kind of hard and it didn't have pork which usually it comes with. However, it did come with imitation crab. Overall, if you're feeling adventurous, definitely check this place out. There is also free parking which is a plus! read more

I'm updating my review from last weekend when I drove across the river to a closed restaurant. We decided to give this place another chance and are so glad we did! The decor is very cute with magenta and black walls. The lady who took care of us was very fun and personable. I had a pork BahnMi, chicken and onion soup and a lavender milk tea with fruit gellies. Everything was absolutely delicious. The bread on my sandwich was so fresh and the pork was tender and sweet. So glad we gave it another go! read more

Fantastic, just as we remembered from their previous establishment in Uniontown, PA. My family loves their sushi - every roll we had was phenomenal, but a few of our favorites are Nguyen's fusion, angry shrimp, wheel of fortune, and spicy tiger. We also got to try the Pho (thank you, Kevin, we never had pho before) which was filling and delicious. It had a little kick, which we enjoyed. They also offer two sauces at the table to kick it up a notch or sweeten it up. Both sauces were good. Besides the amazing food, their service is always top notch. Katy and Kevin treat you like family. My son chose Saigon for his birthday dinner, so we drove over an hour for it. It was totally worth it and we will definitely be back. They also offer a large variety of boba tea, which my kids love. One thing to note is that there are very few tables for dining in, so if you have a large group, you may need to plan ahead. Trust me, try this place and you will not be disappointed. read more

I'm glad Saigon 88 Express is so close to the office that I'm new too. I'm sure I will be a regular. I ordered the salmon and fish cake noodle soup as I always try something that I've never had before. It was pretty decent. It was basically a phó with a few different ingredients. I look forward to getting bahn mi. My only qualm was I'm not a fan of eating a bowl of soup out a styrofoam cup. It's tough to move the ingredients around and get to the bottom. read more
