The building is very elegant and classical, really enjoyed the atmosphere as walking in, we sat down at a corner next to the window and could not wait to try out the coffee and pastries here. We got Cafe Central Kafee and Maria Therasia for coffee and shared one Viennese Apple Strudel. The coffee is so smooth and with the added liquor, the fragrance is amazing!!! No question, this is the BEST Apple strudel I've tasted, crunchy texture for the outside crust and the filling is full of fruity flavors. We spent about a bit more than an hour there and that was the most relaxing, appreciating and beautiful moment among this Europe trip.

Well known for being a beautiful and historic cafe established 1876 frequented by the likes of famous names like Trotsky and Freud, this traditional Viennese coffeehouse and cafe is a popular tourist destination. Having walked by around 7:30pm the prior evening and seeing a line of about 15 people outside, the next morning arriving around 9am the line was about 15 minutes without reservations. Upon entering the inside is beautiful, cavernous domed ceilings, chandeliers and a very classic bistro vibe. Enough seating for probably 150 customers, quite large inside, and about two-thirds full. That's when I realized the line outside was more for show, which at some places I get because staffing might be hard and they want to ramp up the pacing between breakfast and lunch services. In a place like this it seems more like a marketing technique to create hype, which kinda annoyed me--it's not respectful of customers' time. It took a while maybe 10 minutes for a staff member to pass menus, then another 10 minutes for him to come back and check in. What I'll say is he was swift to answer our questions and knew the menu well. In general service felt lacking though, after eating it took quite a long time to get our server's attention again to get the check. For breakfast I was a little surprised by the prices for the food offered, on the high side. While the vegan spreads were very good, from the menu it wasn't clear that it was actually vegan cream cheese that was the base of the spreads. Unfortunately the rest of the food was meh, €14.50 for a small croissant (not especially good), a plain roll, a boiled egg and latte, with a pat of butter and jam. Would I come back? Maybe to try a couple of their baked pastries and dessert, but not for breakfast. For more info: https://cafecentral.wien/en/

We ordered several dishes to share: the steamed dumplings with chicken and shrimp, bok choy with mushrooms, caramel pork, and Bún Riêu. Everything was decent and nicely presented--the dumplings were tasty, the bok choy dish with mushroom was good, the caramel pork was flavorful and the Bún Riêu tasted close to what I am used to. For drinks, we tried their red bean in coconut milk (their signature item) and the lemongrass iced tea. Both were refreshing. The decor is modern, trendy, and inviting, making it a pleasant spot to relax before an evening out. What surprised us, though, was the service. Once our food arrived, no one checked in on us at all--not to ask how things were, not to offer refills, nothing. It stood out because every other restaurant we've visited in Austria has had genuinely warm and attentive service. I suppose there's a first time for everything. Overall, Saigon delivered solid food and a stylish atmosphere, but the lack of follow‑up from the staff left the experience feeling incomplete.

We tried to explain two different people that he wanted the soup and we pointed it back out to them but the person who took our order insisted that we ordered the same thing.

A nice surprise was the selection of exotic drinks, however, my green beans drink with coconut milk was absolutely not worth the price, it was like a tasteless Mango Lassi. The only thing I actually enjoyed was the tinly bowl of soup which came with the Mittagsmenu, it had a funny sweet-sour taste, I would have loved to have a huge bowl of that soup for lunch and it would have been enough :) All in all, I would really love to give this place three stars (for their cheap prices, very welcoming staff members and the huge variety of lunch possibilities), but I really expected more delicious food, so it's just 2 stars.
