Since moving to Elk Grove, we have looked at a few places to find our "go-to" pho spot and this place is among the top on our list. I ordered the special pho and bone marrow with broth. I was extremely happy with the portion size of it! Most of the time when I order pho at other places, I finish too quickly. But here, I always leave with a full tummy with left overs to take home as well. The pho broth has a rich, deep flavor and the ingredients taste fresh. And the bone marrow is MASSIVE with a good amount of marrow in it as well as extra meat on the outside. I also love how they have tea as one of the complimentary drink options. My only complaint is that the pho spoons look like they have been used and abused. They are kind of unsightly. Other than that, I will be a returning customer! read more

F.O.O.D. Review F - First Impression From the moment we walked in, the space felt open, vibrant, and welcoming. It's very spacious and full of color, with a beautiful barrier of plants that naturally guides you to where you begin the ordering process. The first thing that caught my eye was the stunning mural on the wall, paired with bright red-orange chairs that gave the restaurant so much personality. The ceiling, decorated with bamboo-style plates, added a unique touch, and the natural light pouring in made the whole place feel warm and inviting. Everything was laid out in a way that felt easy and straightforward. O - Ordering Experience The ordering process was smooth and efficient. You order and pay at the front, and once you're done, they direct you to your assigned seating. I really appreciated how organized everything was. Before we even sat down, all of the pho add-ons--sprouts, onions, mint, and lemons--were already waiting for us at the table, along with the drinks we had ordered. Within just a few minutes, our food arrived. The service was impressively fast, and everything came out steaming hot with a beautiful presentation. This is definitely not your average pho spot. O - Overall Taste & Quality We started with the beef short rib appetizer, and I honestly had to double-check that it was the appetizer because it far exceeded my expectations. The portion was generous and perfect for sharing. For the pho, the bowl was filled with fresh, flavorful broth, perfectly cooked noodles that were tender and not at all chewy, and an abundance of quality meats--not scraps. They definitely do not skimp on portions here. Even after sharing, there was still plenty left to take home. I left feeling completely satisfied and even happier knowing I truly got my money's worth. D - Delivery/Dining Experience This place absolutely exceeded my expectations and has quickly become one of my favorite pho restaurants. The atmosphere was clean, vibrant, and very pleasant. Everything felt thoughtfully organized from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. I especially liked the pay-upfront concept because it allows you to simply relax and enjoy your meal without having to flag someone down for the bill later. The entire dining experience felt smooth, peaceful, and enjoyable. #PhoLovers #WorthEveryBite #FreshAndFlavorful #GreatAtmosphere #FastService #FoodReview #LocalFavorite #PhoSpot read more

Sit lo Saigon is a casual Vietnamese Pho restaurant located in the Target shopping center on Laguna Blvd and Bruceville Rd where orders are placed at the front counter. Menu consists mainly of pho, appetizers, and beverages. We ordered a couple of bowls of pho, one of which was made with fresh noodles... it was quite better than the other bowl made with dried noodles. We thought the broth was good-tasting but average. The premium pho bowl had ox tail, short rib, and tendon - quite decadent and worth the premium price. We also tried their iced lemon tea and found them refreshing and delicious. Service was minimal. Tables were clean and we sat ourselves. Ambiance is clean and warm. read more

Finally got to try this place out after hearing about it for so long! I didn't know they had an Elk Grove location because I was more familiar with their Davis location. My friend and I came here to eat dinner after shopping around the plaza that this place was located in. Since it was in a busy shopping plaza, there was plenty of parking. Walking in, I loved how they decorated the interior of the place. The ceiling was my favorite touch of decorations they did. Looking at the menu, they mainly had pho with also some appetizers and other dishes, but from what I've heard, they are known for their pho bowls. With that being said, I ended up ordering the #3 Pho bowl which has brisket in it and I also got a Thai tea. I didn't realize it until they brought my bowl of pho to the table but the menu didn't have options of pho bowl sizes to choose from because when my pho bowl got brought to my table, the bowl was huuuuge! Which I didn't mind because I was starving and I was actually able to finish all my pho. I can't express how good their pho broth was. I liked how the broth didn't taste too salty and it was overpowering. I also appreciated the generous portion and balance of the amount of noodles to protein that the bowl had in it. Also, as my friend and I were getting to leave, I saw a server holding 2 bowls of pho that had a big bone marrow in it! I will definitely need to come back hopefully soon because I am already craving to eat another bowl of pho from them and have my husband and parents also see how good their pho bowls are! And maybe will order that pho bowl with the big bone marrow that I saw as I was leaving the restaurant! read more

Absolutely, the best pho I've had in NorCal. Sit lo is not your ordinary pho shop. I've never had to order at the register, pay first and then be seated. But hey, it's their system and it works. I ordered the #13 Saigon Special for $17 bucks and it came with meatballs, ribeye, tendon, flank and tripe. It was a fat bowl. it had lots of meat and the broth was very good! What made it the best pho I've had in Sac/NorCal? The broth was bomb. It had all the essence of pho broth and spices. I loved how tender their meat was. They give free scallion oil and pickled onions which elevated the pho. They have these huge dinosaur bone with bone marrow 10/10. Their chili oil was dark and spicy. Sit lo's pho definitely hit the spot. Will def come back again. read more

The Hanoi pho comes with a side of Chinese donuts, I haven't ate pho without them since trying it this way lol. Pho broth is solid and although it is on the pricier side for a "quick pho spot", I'd argue their portions (esp meat) are worth the price. I like their self serve tea and water station and service is super fast. read more

Come here for something quick, fast, and easy. Order at the counter and they will direct you which table to sit at. Water and free tea(hot or cold) is self serve, which is nice you don't have to wait for anyone to refill. My go to is the Saigon pho and I always love the pickled onions they provide. Broth is good but not the best I've had. Plenty of tables but more difficult in a bigger group. read more

Sit lo Saigon - Saigon Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Cold weather in my opinion always calls for a good bowl of Pho. And so that is what I enjoyed when I visited this location. When you walk in, you view the menu at the counter above head. Pick what you would like, pay and then are assigned a table and your offer is brought to you. There is a complimentary water/tea bar. Your assigned table will already have the side fixings that would normally go into your soup. As I started eating my meal, the foot traffic started to pick up with more people arriving. My meal plus a Thai tea ran me around the $20 mark. My table area on the floor could have been cleaned at bit better as there was still evidence of food on the ground. Small dining area but was able to enjoy what I went in there for. read more

We came here with a party of 7 around brunchtime the day after Thanksgiving and had an above average experience. The food was fabulous, although the place did feel a bit impersonal. The ordering system is akin to Subway - upon entering, choose and pay for your bowl of pho, and then find your seat in the restaurant. I always find it a bit weird to have to decide on a tip before even getting to sample the goods, but oh well... The servers were super fast to bring out our food though, and the Saigon Pho did not disappoint! I did have to raise an eyebrow at the bill, nearly $60 for 3 bowls of pho...gone are the golden days of a good bowl of noodles under $10 bucks! read more

My viet coffee was already at my table before I finished ordering. The service is FAST. We went during lunch time on a Saturday the place was packed but cleared when we left too. They open late and its prime location. My family like the fresh noodles but im a vermicelli girly since I like the broth to cling to my noodles. I enjoyed it as I get to dress up my bowl. I like how they give you a plate of raw sliced onions and oil. I ordered their signature saigon pho. Next time I will order their premium. Its literally a fast food pho spot. Idk what people are expecting some life changing pho. Its still solid. Order your food and go sit down! read more

For the month of September (2025), they are doing a Happy Hour special from 10pm-Midnight for pho only. Half off any pho entrees! There was a line out the door and a full dining room. They do have patio seating and since it was a nice night, we asked to sit outside. You order at the counter and they will seat you, rather than you having to find a table. The line wasn't too bad and once seated, food comes out pretty fast. The staff was working hard to bring out food, bus tables, and get customer requests. Our table did not have any Sriracha or hoisin sauce so I kindly asked one of the workers zooming by and he brought a big bottle of Sriracha but forgot about the hoisin sauce. No biggie because the broth didn't really need it. We did ask for more vegetable toppings and they brought that out right away. I ordered the #17 "premium pho," with the oxtail, short rib, and tendon (normally $19.50). I really enjoyed the broth, just wish the temperature was a little hotter. I needed more broth and less noodles. I was disappointed with the meat. The one tiny oxtail I found was not tender at all and the big bone of short rib had a lot of meat, but wasn't tender either. And actually, my first bite of the rib, the meat was cold! I ended up giving the big bone with all that meat on it to my dog, so she was loving it. Not gonna lie, 50% off pho is a great deal, so I will go back and try different ones. That was the first night they started this special, so hopefully, it will be better on my next visit. read more

I absolutely love Sit Lo Saigon! Their Hanoi style pho is my go to the broth is so flavorful and comforting, and I really appreciate all the extra garnishes like fresh green onions and the soft, fresh noodles. It truly feels like an ode to the pho I had when I visited Hanoi. Every bowl brings back memories. read more

Sit lo Saigon - Pho Hanoi on the new late night special - Vietnamese Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Prime location that offers late evening access to great tasting Pho!!! Simple menu = fast service. Like, you order - self serve to water or tea - next thing you know your bowl of soup is on your table. We ordered their most popular item on the menu #13 & #14 and they were equally impressive with the size, the amount and the taste!!! Place offers both indoor and outdoor seating, cool vibe, mid on the "friendly staff" - just felt they were just on the go, go, go. Not a "enjoy your meal" or any kind of follow up but I guess kinda expected with the fact that you have to get in line to order and pay before you can take a seat. Is this why I only gave it a 3 star vs a 5 star? NOPE. The 3 star is because everyone does everything - from register to delivering your food / drinks to cleaning the table and they were THE SAME gloves from one task to another. Found that so unsanitary and only noticed this after we devoured our bowls of soup. Gloves serves protection for the one wearing aka the staff but not the customers. You shouldn't touch my "fresh bowl" of soup after cleaning a dirty table including using a dirty rag to wipe the table to serving me my food. The gloves gives the staff a false sense of "clean" because they cant feel, maybe not even notice or see that their soiled. Not ok and I hope the owner sees this review and make the proper adjustments. Soup is great folks - like REALLY REALLY good. Gotta end on a good note cuz this place near my house and I want them to stay open! Thanks read more

Sit Lo Saigon is conveniently located inside a plaza with restaurants and stores-- plenty of parking. But the pho is what you would typically expect. There's a small selection of pho and drinks available. There's no rice plates -- only pho. You pay at the counter and they assign you a table for seating. Your meal is brought out to you, the staff is friendly. The food, however, is what you would expect. The broth is watered down, no flavor. Generous portion of serving size with a good mixture of the noodles and meat. It's edible -- it is decent but nothing memorable. I would most likely not go back because I have had Pho that is more flavorful and delicious elsewhere. read more

Big fan that this restaurant is open for those late night pho cravings. They were having a deal for I believe 20% off if you came at a certain time and we were a couple minutes early and didn't catch the deal. I believe it was due to a POS particularity but no biggie. The restaurant is casual and after ordering you get a number and seat yourself. There's water available and spoons/chopsticks/etc. are available at your table. We got the #1 and #7 with thin noodles and my partner got a Thai Tea. The pho was flavorful and delicious, served very hot and a large portion with many noodles. I do believe they're all one size and it's a good quantity for the pay. A nice touch that I loved and haven't experienced eating at other pho restaurants is the serving of raw onion along with the veggies. It's good pho, especially when you can't get it any other place after 9pm. read more

Open late, great atmosphere, and delicious pho! Although the menu is small, it has some great items. I ordrred the beef rib pho and the portion was huge. Pho was great and really fresh. I also ordered the iced honey lemon tea and it was so refreshing (this is seperate from the complimentary tea they also have). They give a side of basil, onions and bean sprouts. I love that they boil the bean sprouts before serving. I also got to try the doughnut, which was delicious! There is plenty of seating, inside and outside. Also plenty of parking in a nice plaza. read more

Overall, the pho was good. I went during their 50% off promotion (lasting through 9/30/25, valid only from 10pm to 12am, dine in only) which made the pho worth it. However, if I was paying full price, I would not come back often as it is on the more expensive side compared to other places. But this is my favorite pho spot in Sacramento because they serve fresh noodles and I love the thickness of it. Food: (3.5/5) Hanoi Pho ($16.95 + $1.50 for Fresh Noodles) - The pho was good. The broth had a strong beef and pho flavor, and it was also very clear. There was a huge portion of noodles which was great given its high price point. The Hanoi Pho also comes with donut sticks which is an added bonus that other bowls do not have. However, the beef was on the tougher side and the broth had a strong garlicky flavor which took away from the traditional broth flavor. I would recommend the Saigon Pho for anyone who prefers a more traditional pho flavor profile. Service & Ambiance: (3/5) The service was decent. They have you order and pay for your food first thing when you walk into the restaurant rather than the traditional pay after you finish your meal. From there you will have to get your own water (towards the back right) and seat yourself wherever there is an available table. The only service they really provide is when they bring you your food, after that, they don't go around checking in on tables. The ambiance is nice throughout the store, however, leaving can be a bit confusing. They also have outdoor seating read more

I made a last-minute detour to Elk Grove's Sit Lo Saigon Vietnamese Noodle House, and I'm so glad I did. I was actually headed to Journey to the Dumpling, but suddenly got a craving for comforting, made-from-scratch food--and pho was calling my name. To my surprise and delight, they had my all-time favorite: short rib pho, which is nearly impossible to find in the Sacramento area! Usually, I have to drive all the way to San Francisco or wait for A New York trip to get for pho with short rib, but not anymore--Sit Lo Saigon pho had delivers, and it's right in Elk Grove!rich and flavorful broth perfectly topped with green onions a side od white onions and the usual fresh fixings--mung bean sprouts, jalapeños, lime, and Thai basil. They served the short rib bone-in, just like the spots in SF. I was only a few bites in when I decided I'm coming back next week--and bringing a friend who appreciates a good bowl of pho as much as I do. It's a casual, walk-up counter spot with lightning-fast service and friendly staff. Definitely will regularly visit when in the Elk Grove area or up for a little drive for a bowl of goodness! read more

I went here for lunch and was shocked at the lack of people in there. I've heard great things about this place from people who went when they used to host a happy hour. We ordered at the counter and were able to pick a table to be seated at. There is plenty of seating and the lighting during the day is great due to the large windows. The food came out so FAST. I had the beef pho and a thai tea. The broth for the pho was very rich and perfect flavored. I did not add anything directly to the broth because it was that good. They also provided sooo much meat, the most meat I've ever had in my pho ( I did not even eat all the meat). The thai tea was also delicious and my boyfriend even ordered another one to go. I am on my way to eat there again right now as I type this review! Definitely worth the try in my opinion! read more

Came here for dinner with family. The place was decent. Clean with a nice ambiance, so I was looking forward to my usual oxtail Pho. When the server brought our food to the table, we noticed he was wearing blue gloves and his finger with gloves on, was inside the bowl touching the soup. We were all shocked. After that, none of us felt comfortable eating anymore. The customer service itself was okay but hygiene is a big deal for me. I ended up not eating. Really disappointing experience for a dinner out. read more

I stopped in to order take-out for lunch after some meetings in Elk Grove. I easily found parking in the large lot in the shopping plaza and made my way inside. I walked up to the front and was greeted immediately. The menu has many pho options and then some drink options. I opted for the #13 Saigon Pho ($16.50) and I opted to get the fresh noodles (+$1.50) and waited while it was prepared. It didn't take long before I was being handed a well packed bag of food and I made my way home to enjoy it. Everything was packed really well. The container of broth was full, where I've had many to-go order experiences from other places that don't fill the broth all the way. The bean sprouts, thai basil and limes were packed together in a bag, the noodles, pickled jalepenos and meat were also packed together nicely. On top of this they included hoisin, red pepper oil, and sriracha. The portion was very generous and I put everything in a large metal mixing bowl after I reheated the broth. The broth itself was a bit salty for my taste, but with the inclusion of hoisin and sambal (from home) I was able to make it perfect for my tastes. I like mine a bit sweet and spicy. Typically pho is better at the restaurant, and their restaurant has plenty of space. I loved the mural on the wall and when I was there I saw a large table where a group had just finished eating. So, it's great for groups or for a quick meal on your own or with a friend. I would definitely consider stopping by again soon. read more

I gave Sitlo a second try yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised that the pho tasted better this time! I revisited this restaurant because my dad heard about it from my aunt and wanted to give it a try too. We came here a little before 12pm for lunch, and it was pretty packed inside. I like how they have self serve water and iced tea available! They also provide complimentary white pickled onions, and you can always ask for more if it is not enough. I ordered a #11, and all of our orders came out super fast. I was very hungry and devoured it. The broth was slightly more flavorful this time and less oily. I wish that they would give more noodles because it was not enough for me, but they did give a good amount of meat and tendon. My family also agreed that they could still eat more because it was not enough. Maybe it's also due to the fact that we have big appetites and can eat a lot. If I ever am in the area and desperately craving pho, I will consider coming back again. read more

It's been a long time since I've been here simply due to the distance for me. They've changed some of their seating, but the pho is still just as good. It comes out fresh and hot. You order before being seated and the waitress brings everything out to you pretty quickly. The decor remained the same, but they've changed the seating around, so it's more open now. There's lots of outdoor seating as well. The Hanoi Pho is still a favorite of mine. Would probably not get the coconut juice drink anymore seeing as there was more ice than anything else. This was not my first time here and won't be my last. read more

This is my new favorite spot to get pho. It's located near Journey to the dumpling and next to dip and dots ice cream. Order at the counter like a Chipotle restaurant as soon as you enter and then they would assign a table number for you to sit at after ordering. My favorite is the #17 with tendon. Drinks are self serve. Food comes out pretty fast. The broth is so good and I love how they serve fresh noodles. I can never finish the entire bowl myself, so I always have leftovers each and every time I go. We also love the pickled onions that they serve on the side and also ngo (type of herb). Very chill and efficient. Highly recommend. read more

I came here after hearing good things, and overall, it lived up to the hype! I ordered the premium pho with short rib, oxtail and tendons. The broth was flavorful and well-balanced--not too salty, not too bland. The meat quality could was just okay as it was a little chewy to my liking. The service was friendly, though a bit busy on a Saturday lunch. The ambiance is casual and clean, but nothing fancy. Prices are okay for the quality, though I've had slightly better pho elsewhere. Would I come back? Definitely! It's a solid spot if you're craving a warm, comforting bowl of pho. I think I'll want to try their regular bowl of pho without the premium meats next time. read more
