" It’s a shame I had higher hopes based on past experiences at Saigon. The pho I ordered came out cold, and they messed up my order. The staff was polite, but that didn’t compensate for the fact it felt like they were overwhelmed. Will reconsider returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" Always a great meal here! I visited recently and ordered pho and spring rolls again. They are consistent with their quality, and I was pleasantly surprised by the generous portions. For the price, it’s an excellent deal. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere is a bit outdated, but the food definitely makes up for it! I had crispy beef and it was delicious. The waitstaff were pleasant, though a bit slow. Overall, not a bad experience. Just don't expect a fabulous decor! " (*Curated Review*)

" A very delightful experience for our first visit to a Vietnamese restaurant! Their pho and fried rice were so good! The ingredients tasted fresh, and the flavors were well-balanced. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. We’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fabulous Vietnamese food! The variety is endless, and each dish I've tried has impressed. Their vermicelli with grilled pork was divine, the pork was marinated perfectly! Highly recommend the egg rolls as an appetizer too. The prices are incredibly reasonable for what you get! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not the best experience! The shrimp toast I ordered was quite bland and the service was unexcitable. I expected more interaction or help with the menu but didn't receive that. Atmosphere tired and need updating. Maybe I'm too picky, but I just didn't enjoy my visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Oh my goodness! The pho here is just heavenly! I was blown away by the richness of the broth and how perfectly cooked the beef was. I also loved the fresh herbs provided on the side. Can agree it’s a bit cozy and could use a renovation, but the food experience overshadows everything else! " (*Curated Review*)
