Saigon Quan

I'm a fan of the former Little China that was in this space and doubted anyone could improve on that. But I was very pleasantly surprised on a recent visit. The new owner has completely redone the inside space with warm colors. The place is spotless and the service is top notch. The owner took our order and his sister was our server. We recognized her from another restaurant on Parmer so we got special attention. I got the rare steak and meatballs pho. It came out piping hot had plenty of protein. I like my broth a little saltier and I asked for some original fish sauce. They quickly obliged and that did the trick for me. We'll be back soon and enjoy some of the other treats on the varied menu. They weren't very busy so I encourage you Asian food lovers to get in there and help them grow their business.

Had the beef vermicelli dish and it was really flavorful. The onions on it were delicious, and it came with a bunch of veggies and a sauce.I also had the fried shrimp appetizer which was also really addictive, crunchy and a nice flavor profile.Steamed pork dumpling was pretty average, I thought.Venue is clean, though the parking lot is really busy in this complex, there's a gym and a bunch of businesses sharing parking. I had a bit of a tough time finding parking.The metal chairs were not comfortable, I preferred the wooden benches.

Saigon Quan is the third venture from the same owners of Saigon 512 and Bep Saigon. The menu was smaller but had the highlights of each of the other two iterations.We ordered Banh Bot Chien, Bun Bo Hue, and Pho. They got the protein in the pho wrong, but that was okay so we just went with it. Bot Chien was good, Bun Bo Hue had extra shrimp paste on the side which made it better, and pho was decent. They have Canh Chua served hotpot style that looked good, though we didn't order. Service was good with kind and welcoming owners.Overall we had a good meal and will come back to enjoy the casual vibe.

I noticed a new Asian food spot opened near my neighborhood and I was really hoping it would be good. And Saigon Quan didn't disappoint! We've gotten takeout 3 times since they opened and the food has been fresh & high quality. They have a ton of different menu items and I've already found my favorite dish. They always turn around their orders super quick too! Like 15m after ordering. We couldn't be happier with Saigon Quan. I look forward to trying all the dishes! Excellent vegan menu options!

Came for dinner and the place was pretty empty when I arrived around 6 p.m. But people did start coming shortly after. We ordered what I would call the transition Vietnamese dinner meal. The Fish Clay Pot and Vietnamese Sour Soup (not pictured) and added the Fried Rice Cake too. The service was great, we spoke Vietnamese to the employees and they treated us like their kids making sure we cooked the veggies and fish in the right order for the Soup. The Fish Clay Pot is very similar to what I remember eating as a kid, as for the Soup, I think it was a bit more on the sour side than what I liked and not enough bean sprouts for my liking. The fried rice cake is good, probably one of the closest I have eaten in Austin that is similar to the ones in Houston. The restaurant itself is a decent side with bright light. There are multiple tables of different sizes to accommodate small and large parties.

This has become one of our favorite Vietnamese restaurants since it opened a few months ago. However today my menu selection wasn't as good as I had hoped to be. I ordered the pork vermicelli bowl with the egg roll. While the bowl and contents was quite large for a lunch option we noticed that there was not many vermicelli noodles and more bean sprouts. The egg roll was good but certainly substandard to many other Vietnamese places we've had egg rolls at. I would describe its taste as somewhat bland and lacking in taste. We both also failed the vermicelli bowl was really lacking and taste as well. The pork was not grilled and lacked that nice outer crunch and grilled taste. The sauce for the vermicelli bowl was also lacking and taste or so we thought. All in all this wasn't the best meal we've had here because we've had so many five-star meals here I suppose they can't be five star and every meal that we eat. Nevertheless, there are a lot of menu options that we have yet to try.

Youngest daughter, grandson, and I had lunch today at Saigon Quan. Lunch specials are very good, with reasonable prices.Service was excellent. Restaurant and restroom were spotless. Ambiance was better than okay.I had the lunch special with hot and sour soup and General Tso's Chicken.Daughter and grandson had Egg Drop Soup and Combination Fried Rice. Very generous portions. The only negative - the egg roll definitely needs work and I wish they offered Vietnamese Spring Rolls.Parking was adequate in this small neighborhood center at the corner of South Bend and Metric. Getting in and exiting the parking lot was easy.We are looking forward to our next visit.

Brand new, still in soft opening mode, Saigon Quan takes the place where China House used to be. Right out of the gate, they're absolutely crushing it. Basil eggplant was fantastic, with a nice punch of spice from charred jalapenos, perfectly tender, buttery, garlicky eggplant, and firm fried tofu. Fantastic as that was, the ap chao was an absolute TREASURE. Perfectly crispy seared noodle cakes with a satisfying wok hei around the edges that positively sing when you add some of the chili oil stationed on each table.Obviously, I need to go back for the pho which takes up a considerable portion of the menu. There are great lunch deals on classic Chinese-American dishes too, all of which come with you choice of protein, so most if not all can be made vegan/vegetarian with tofu. They haven't yet activated online ordering, so it's all in person right now. Go early while it's still unknown and quiet! Everyone working there was incredible kind, gracious, and patient, plus the food came out lightning fast. I'm so happy to have this addition to the neighborhood!

This is our first time to try this place since changing names. We are very impressed with what they did with the inside of the place. There are many tables unlike before when it was Little China. The table service was incredible. The waiter who took our order was prompt and was very polite. Our order was served very quickly. It was fresh and piping hot. I ordered the vermicelli with pork and spring roll. My hubby had the pho. My vermicelli was delicious. The pickled radish complimented the entire meal. If you're in the area please give a try.

very sweet owners, quick service and the food was absolutely incredible! The portions are quite large as well for what I ordered. I'll definitely be going back soon!
