" My experience here was less than satisfactory. I found the banh mi to be underwhelming; there was barely any pork inside, and the bread felt more like sandwich bread than a proper Vietnamese baguette. On top of that, the service was disorganized. We waited too long to place our orders and even longer for our food, despite being in an almost empty restaurant. It seems popular, but my visit didn't live up to the hype, unfortunately. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, my experience was average. The banh mi was good, but there were many places in the area I’d consider first, especially given my expectation for the flavor when I read the name and saw their online menu. It was nice for a quick bite, but I left wanting more. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came in ready to feast and was brutally disappointed. First, the pho was served with lemons instead of limes! Who does that? The flavor was mediocre at best. Plus, the seating was far too cramped for my liking. I left feeling unsatisfied and won’t be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Charming restaurant with fast service. My kid enjoyed their grilled chicken with rice, and I can vouch for the freshness of the ingredients. The banh mi was good but could have used a bit more meat. Overall, a satisfying meal, and I would return to try more things! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a regular at Pho & Banh Mi Saigonese, and each visit reminds me why. The service is always friendly, and the food is simply delicious. The pho is rich with flavor, and their summer rolls are very refreshing. My only complaint is the availability of seating during peak hours, as it can get busy. Still, the quality of the food makes it worth the wait for me! " (*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*)
