" I decided to give Pho & Banh Mi Saigonese a try with some friends, and we were thoroughly impressed! The banh mi had the perfect baguette, crunchy on the outside and soft inside. The grilled pork was flavorful, and the fresh veggies added a great crunch. I also ordered the vermicelli bowl, which was vibrant and fresh. It’s authentic Vietnamese food done right! The service was friendly, though they seemed a bit understaffed. Still, I can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" A real hidden gem! I visited for lunch and enjoyed the vermicelli bowl with grilled pork, which was flavorful and satisfying. The staff was attentive and the atmosphere was calm—perfect for a midweek escape. I also tried their iced coffee, which was rich and flavorful. The only downside was the portion size; I would have liked a bit more for what I paid. Still, I'd recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been a fan of Pho & Banh Mi Saigonese since they opened! The grilled beef banh mi is my go-to. The bread is baked fresh, and the flavors are well-balanced with pickled veggies that add a nice zing. I've tried their pho as well, and it's comforting and aromatic. Definitely a great place to enjoy authentic Vietnamese cuisine without breaking the bank. I highly recommend trying their summer rolls as a starter! " (*Curated Review*)

" Warning: do not patron this establishment if you're hungry. I found my large pho to be lacking in quantity and flavor. On top of that, the meat was chewy, and I didn’t receive any lime with it, only lemon. I had hoped for better, considering its reputation. To top it off, the service was rushed. One positive was the cleanliness of the restaurant, but that alone won't bring me back. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I came for dinner expecting a great meal after all the hype. We found the service very slow despite the place not being too busy at all. The food itself left us wanting; the flavors were there, but presentation was lacking. If you like tasty pho and are very patient, this might work for you. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing all the positive reviews, I thought I would try it out myself. I was met with underwhelming flavors and meager portions. The bun bo hue was watery, and the grilled pork in my banh mi was cold and unseasoned. Not what I expected for an authentic Vietnamese restaurant. I doubt I’d come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious! The cha gio were hot and crispy, and the banh mi had a wonderful balance of flavors. The staff was efficient and the place sparkled with cleanliness. I’m glad I discovered this spot; I only wish I had more room to try their pho next time! " (*Curated Review*)
