Pho Saigon

I've been this place few times and it never disappoints me. Hubby and I came here early dinner before it gets bz, ordered some Pho and combo plate. We also ordered fried rice and bake mussels , everything taste good and fried rice have alot of chicken and flavorful . Their waiter are super friendly and attentive .the place was quite and more people were coming in. The place have nice open space and windows .

I've been to this place a handful of times now and I've always had a good experience. The location is a bit sketchy, but just head inside and be aware of your surroundings, especially at night. The staff is super welcoming from when you come in until the time you leave. I got the usual which is the number 13. It always comes out hot and delicious. This time I was craving rice so I got the barbecue pork fried rice. The portion size was huge! I've never had a bad experience here. If you do not want to dine in, they also have to go orders that you can place.

I've been visiting this restaurant since I was a child, and it's always been a favorite of mine. The food is flavorful, and the pho broth never disappoints--it's consistently rich and satisfying. Despite being located in an area that's not the best, it has remained my go-to spot over the years. The restaurant offers plenty of seating, making it a comfortable place to dine in, and the service is always fast and efficient.

The food was absolutely wonderful. The atmosphere was great. The service was on point. It was just a great place to bring family or to have a date night. It's a very clean place. Even the waiter took out his time to help My Husband and I learned how to use chopsticks I thought that was really nice. I will definitely be going back.

I had been craving Pho and wanted try a new place. My family and I ordered the charbroiled pork, prawn, and egg roll with vermicelli. The prawn and pork were not seasoned well and the shrimp had a weird taste. Also, ordered the pho with beef noodle soup with rare steak, flank, tendon, and tripe. The pho had a flavorful taste and good portion of meat. Ordered the bbq fried rice which had no flavor but good amount. Lastly, ordered the Peking pork, good flavor and there was a good amount. I did call in my order it took 20 minutes for it to be done. I paid in total $58.

Generally speaking, when I'm in a different area from my usual haunts, I try to stick to places that are highly rated or that have been recommended to me. However, there are plenty of times where, for one reason or another, circumstances doesn't really allow for that. Sometimes it's because of the hour or what's going on, other times it's just because convenience had to be optimized. Or in the case with Pho Saigon, where it was getting relatively late on NYE and our options for dinner felt pretty limited. Not that I would ever really say "no" to checking out a new pho joint, especially on such a frigid night - who knew Sacramento could get so cold!Pulling up to Pho Saigon, it almost felt like seeing a beacon of light on an otherwise quiet and dark street (minus the illegal fireworks going off overhead). Inside, this place looks like just about every other pho joint, albeit with a lot more seating than you might expect (there even looked to be a side room with even more tables). Similarly, the menu is deceptively large - along your typical slate of starters, pho, bun, and rice plates, they also have a sizable collection of Chinese dishes too (think more like fried rice, Honey Walnut Prawns, Mongolian Beef, and Peking Spareribs than specialized dishes). They also technically have Thai dishes on the menu too, but it's really just limited to a few dishes, like Pad Thai and Pad Kee Mao.-- (#20) FRIED CALAMARI (Muc Lan Bot Chien)...$14(https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pho-saigon-sacramento-3?select=3JFowuF-JpkkyweJ1iVv8g)On the one hand, the portion was generous and the calamari was crispy. On the other, I'd be hard pressed to say they were any better than okay. The calamari needed some seasoning (it was flavorless on its own) and they were fairly oily/greasy.-- (#5) BEEF NOODLE SOUP with RARE STEAK, WELL DONE FLANK, TENDON (Pho Bo Tai, Nam, Gan)...$14 Large(https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/pho-saigon-sacramento-3?select=Vw891jH3A1kTXPSDdxtr2g)As with the Fried Calamari, the portion for this was huge. Like, HUGE - it's far bigger than most large portions I've had. However, aside from being loaded with meat and noodles, this was just okay. The tendon was great and I liked the flank (though a few pieces were fatty), but the broth was fairly generic.Given how mediocre the food was, it's tough to get too excited about their large portions and service here was pretty uneventful, good or bad. As such, the best thing about Pho Saigon is really just how convenient they are - the to of seating for groups large or small, the wealth of spaces in their lot, and how they're open relatively late (until 10pm). In that regard, they're great if you're just looking for something easy and are okay with a no frills sort of experience. Otherwise, if you're looking to optimize for better tasting pho, I assume you can probably find better elsewhere.All in all, TWO AND A HALF STARS is about right for the food, but rounded up for everything else.

I recently visited Pho Saigon for lunch and tried #1 on their menu in a small size. Priced at just $11, it was the perfect portion for a midday meal. The flavors were rich and satisfying, making it a great choice for a quick, hearty lunch. I paired my meal with their iced coffee, sweet and strong. Overall, Pho Saigon is a great local spot for a delicious and affordable lunch. Highly recommended! Fast service and friendly.

I've been coming here since 2015 and not once have I been disappointed. I admit the place and location could be better but the pho is what keeps me and my family going to this place. The broth is flavorful and meat tender and my favorite thing is the eggrolls! The service is fast and kind

Great food and great service. We stopped off later in the evening and there was a pretty good amount of people there. The pho was great and bbq pork and egg roll were so flavorful. All of the textures in the bowl were amazing. Our server was super sweet and friendly. The ambiance was great and not too loud. It was nice to see everyone enjoying their meal. Definitely coming back.
