Foods were good but moderate to pricey. Customer service was GREAT. Just needs some improvement to get a 5 STAR Rating. Keep up the good work and service.

Selective quality ingredients and dedicating cooking. Pho is genuine from slow cooking beef bone. You can feel the warmth and passion from the owner elevating the space. Reasonable price, friendly and fast service.

Great food. The pho broth is so flavorful! The rice vermicelli with beef lemongrass is also great. Highly recommend trying these two dishes. The grilled lamb is packed with flavors. Its spicy. Must try!

Ordered two dishes and they were both good.Fried rice and shaken beef were garlicky and seasoning was on point . Fried rice with Salmon was also delish.Bar/alcoholic beverages looked good, will try next time.

I really enjoyed the food with all the dishes which are amazingly delicious and well-presented. They just launched chilly sauce with lemon grass which tastes has a unique flavor that can mix with anything and give a kick of spiciness. It’s definitely a go-to place!

Place was almost empty, was having second thoughts. Service was good and friendly. Pho is okay to good, but could have more flavor.

Service was exceptional. Their hospitality was a breath of fresh air. The menu had a lot to offer for any type of diet or age group. We enjoyed fresh coconut, cajun butterfly shrimp, garlic noodles, and snow crab. Everything was full of flavor and cooked perfectly. This establishment deserves your business. You deserve their experience.

Brought my parents and in-laws here as a plan B and now I wouldnt even consider it as my plan C. We came on a weekend night for dinner and it was almost empty. We ordered some pho and for the 5 of us it took like... idk 30 minutes to come out? The broth was subpar especially for being in OC. Everything else was just okay and nothing was bad but I mean... youre in little Saigon.. CmonFood: 5/10Service: 4/10Experience: 5/10Value: 4/10

I love this restaurant. The food, the staff, the restaurant....for sure a vibe. The only place for me and my Family when wanting a hot bowl of pho. You need to check out their DELUX PHO which has a huge beef rib in it. Besides multiple pho combinations, they have a wide variety of different dishes as well as bobas and teas. A must for sure!!!

Saigon District offers Vietnamese food. We ordered the Pho with Macaroni noodles (Pho Nui) and Garlic Noodles. The restaurant is large in size. Customer service is on point. Service is quick. The restrooms are clean and large (they could probably make an additional stall). Utensils are individually wrapped.

I had previously visited and was eagering looking forward to coming back. I finally made a point to come back today for my birthday and brought as friend, who had never had the pleasure of having Pho. To my disappointment, not only were most of dishes lukewarm or cold, but the portions left much to be desired. Not only did my my meal, which I requested extra broccoli, come with none, it barely came with any veggies, much less a basic amount of veggies in a vegetarian dish. I was told my dish came with 5 broccoli. Because of this experience and that I had looked forward to this and recommended this place, I will hesitate to return a third time.

Food is good. I ordered the chicken garlic noodles. They were tasty and I was surprised to taste duck. The other dish I ordered was pork over rice and it was delicious.

Not too sure about this place, not the worst Vietnamese but defiantly not the best either. The eggroll dipping sauce was a little off for me. The pho was ok and didnt have a lot of flavor.

This place is absolutely wonderful. I ended up ordering the cajun calamari that they recommended to go with my Saigon beer. They have some really cool options and the quality is top notch! Definitely going to return with friends and family.

The s place hits all the bells. Tasty food, good service, food is made quickly, really nice modern environment with nice music, big screen TV with sports, calming yet energetic atmosphere. I highly recommend it, and also the prices are great, and even the beer prices for Corona and Dos Equis is $3.75. I dont leave many reviews, so must be great for me to leave one!.

Love the way they make you feel and The owners are so sweet and inviting we come from Glendale, Ca to visit family and always come to eat here absolutely the best place ever!

This place is amazing. I was able to sit right away, and food was served quickly by the very friendly owners. I have tried MANY different things here and they are ALL good! There egg rolls though are a MUST try (weve been told its a family recipe thats been handed down). Also a must try is their garlic noodles or garlic fried rice. Their curry is also absolutely delicious. Oh, and they also have hamburgers for the kids (or adults) that have an aversion to something different.

Review №31

2021-05-10 02:56:33

The egg that we ordered was burnt black. The bowls that we got were dirty. I had to asked 5 times to get a clean bowl. The food was worst than Panda Express. I asked for napkins for party of 7, and they brought out 2 pieces; I had to ask again for 3 more pieces. They never came to serve, but put an automatic service charge of 18% to our bill. One of the worst service and food I have ever received in OC. Don’t go here!!

This restaurant has very delicious food. I went out for dinner with my family and my mom and dad loved the pho. When we came in, we were seated fairly quickly by a man named Sam. My sister and I ate the garlic noodles with grilled shrimp and deluxe fried rice and they tasted so good. The people who were running the restaurant were so kind. They even had their son help around! The menu has a wide variety of items with a reasonable price. I would return here any day, anytime, just to try a different item. This is by far the best restaurant Ive ever been to!

2018-09-22 17:07:50

Good clean vibes inside. I would call it Fine Casual dining. Pho was decent and reliable although not neccessarily mind blowing. Wait staff was super helpful and friendly. They even have beer taps and a modern look. Ill definitely be coming back again soon.

Review №35

2021-10-08 02:49:25

Ordered some classics, vermicelli with bbq pork and some spring rolls/egg rolls and they were pretty sub par. Pork was cold, and the egg rolls did not seem fresh, I picked up the order on time (actually prior to their estimate)..

Review №36

2021-02-15 04:28:36

Let me explain why I’m giving this place 1 star. Me and my husband stopped here on the way home and seen good reviews about this place .let me just start out by saying customer service was fair due to the fact that the server was attentive during the first minutes of service then completely forgot about us the rest of our stay. The food was GROSS and after going home we both instantly ran to the restrooms and had the WORST food poisoning that we ever had. Never coming here again.

Review №37

2022-02-22 14:38:45

Garlic noodles are perfection! Update today, we had their pho. Im extremely sensitive to msg and I felt it after a few spoonfuls. I asked and the owner confirmed they use a small amount in their soup.

Review №38

2016-12-26 23:29:29

Every time I come here I have trouble deciding what to order. Their menu is huge. The Thai Iced Tea and green tea are delicious, and everything else on their menu is a sure bet to satisfy your hunger. I love the ocean mural too. Polite staff and clean restrooms to boot.

Review №39

2018-08-21 22:02:59

The food is always fresh and incredibly flavorful. The staff are beyond friendly and always have a smile. I absolutely love the Korean glass noodles and find myself craving it. The sangria is a perfect accompaniment to the meal.

Review №40

2019-10-03 19:10:32

I really, really like this place. The menu is a bit robust. There is a lot to choose from. The family who owns/operates is very nice. The Pho broth is the best around (and yes, Ive been to Shin Sen Gumi). But the best thing is the egg rolls! Cruchiest egg rolls on EARTH!

Review №41

2018-11-29 09:52:08

What a great restaurant. First off... what great decor. Owner put a lot of attention to make a confortable place. At pho restaurants we stick to the basics. Egg roll appetizers with the lettuce and chicken pho. Egg rolls were great. But I was impressed with both versions of chicken pho. Either breast or a dark grilled chicken. And great beer offerings. I had the last Czech beer. Great place to hungry to take pictures but great service as well.

Review №42

2018-01-15 03:59:21

I been sitting at the table with my girlfriend for more than 30min. In those 30min the waiter did not ask if I want refreshments, or if Im ready for my order. I should not have to raise my voice to get there attention since my girlfriend and myself been sitting for 30min. Worst service terrible people and very bad prejudice. I dont know if its because I am young and they dont respect younger folks. I noticed older folks get there order which is Im fine with, but being ignored the whole time I was in there for the duration of my stay when its not a busy night is unpleasant. Never coming back to this garbage!

Review №43

2018-01-21 22:15:58

Best pho ever. I have to go every time I visit my parents. The cool the broth for days and it’s so rich and flavorful with a ton of fresh basil, been sprouts an jalapeños on the side. They have an extensive menu other than pho but I doubt I’d even try because the pho is so good. My hubby had a beef dish that he liked a lot. I definitely recommend you try the pho. You will be happy you did.

They were short staffed on one of my visits so we had to wait longer than usual to place our order. The very friendly waitress apologized and we will most likely return.

Review №46

We are regulars here. Great tasting PHO broth makes thin place a keeper above the rest of the 1000 PHO Restaurants within 5 miles of us. There is also a wide range of different dishes here. The prices are slightly higher than other restaurants of the same menu selections.

2018-09-24 21:28:55

OUT OF THIS WORLD FOOD! Wonderful Service. Great Spicy food and fusion foods are wonderful. Nice People, AWSOME FOOD! Great service. My favorite is the Pho Beef Soup with lots of siracha. EGG Rolls are phenomenal and something totally unique I have never had before in other places. Fantastic Burgers - Taste Just like Shakeshack from New York. So if you cannot get to New York or Los Angeles to to Siagon District.

Took my daughter to late lunch. We both had Pho. She had seafood, I had pork. She enjoys craft beer, they have a nice selection and I had a glass of merlot. We both enjoyed the meal - the pho is tastier than I remembered. We both recommend Saigon District.

2021-01-09 02:35:43

The food is not bad this review is on service. I ordered to go on postmates about 45 minutes before I arrived and I don’t think they started my order until I walked through the door. I believe I was waiting from my order to physically receiving the food for about 1.5 hours. The man and the woman working there were pushy and boarder line rude.

Review №51

2019-04-09 03:13:18

Good flavorful pho broth but needs to add a little more noodles to satisfy my stomach. Egg rolls are pretty good too. Good choice for pho without having the usual bad service at a vietnamese restaurant

Review №52

Very nice family that runs this restaurant in our area, has a cool bar and varied menu . Microbrews on tap to pair well with Vietnamese food, we recommend this place.

Review №53

2019-12-03 21:31:28

Family owned Viet Restaurant. One of the nicest around with big screen TVs and full bar! Try the filet mignon Pho; the broth is fantastic! The only reason I sadly wont return is that they have CNN on every time. I dont like CNN anyway, let alone while Im eating.

Review №54

2016-07-24 23:04:47

This place has more of an upscale vibe for a Vietnamese restaurant, but their food is reasonably priced. They had decent prices on beers, and their food was good. I wouldnt say the food was great, but if I were around the area, I would consider returning.

Review №55

2021-05-16 20:33:17

I had ga pho and the chicken was the most tender. I also tried the com bo luc lac which had the most tender filet mignonette and delicious sauce, and tried pho tien chien (steak and brisket) and it was pretty good. I wish they have more condiments for the pho like other places. The down side is you can’t order any water, they only serve bottle water for $1 which isn’t terrible. The thing I love is they accommodate gluten free. I plan to try many things on the menu that can be made gluten free- it’s hard to find GF places.

Review №56

2018-09-24 01:46:53

The food is great (except kids menu) but they treat everyone warmly like they are family. Great beer choices on tap, TVs for football and other sports...just a great neighborhood place to go

Review №57

2017-12-25 01:44:41

This is our favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Huntington Beach. I especially like that they have grilled pork Pho. What sets them apart is that theyre a real sit-down restaurant vs the fast food feel of the other local Pho spots.
