I used to live near here and ordered all the time. Vermicelli pork bowl with spring roll and my husband would get a sandwich. Always delicious, good portions. Nice crispy rolls. I miss this place so much. Never got pho there. And it is tucked away in the food court, so I would always order delivery. It seemed geared for take away honestly.

We got take out while we were shopping for other things inside the Market and so glad we did. We got the Spring Rolls, the chicken Banh Mi, and the Grilled pork and spring roll vermicelli. Everything was fresh and delicious - so glad we finally tried it out and will most definitely be going again.

Best pho in Chestnut Hill. Broth is fragrant and everything about this place is authentic. Such a great comfort food. I am sad that they only open Wed-Sun. I haven't tried anything else. I did tried to order takeout for their Goi Cuon (summer rolls) but they gave me egg rolls instead which was disappointing. Egg rolls were decent but wouldn't pay $5-6 for it. Overall, I've been here 3 times, mostly because is nearby.

We tried the Saigon Noodle Bar for the first (and last) time. Our takeout was so far below average, it was not fixable at home and almost inedible.Summer rolls (what they call "Garden rolls"): Almost half the quantity that you would get elsewhere for the price... Cilantro: missing... Thai basil: MISSING. Mint: DON'T EVEN ASK!... Shrimp: for some reason, MISSING. We had tofu instead of the SHRIMP, after we specifically had to deny being vegan and specifically requested they put the shrimp in. The order taker assumed when we ordered a veggie banh mi, that we were vegan... TOFU: cardboard texture... Peanut sauce: CLOYINGLY SWEET and nursery school simple.Banh Mi: College level food. (Sorry if you think that is some kind of compliment after saying the peanut sauce was nursery. It isn't)... French roll, NO - Italian... Carrot: minimal... Cucumber: below minimal... Cilantro: missing... Jalapeno: missing... Mayonnaise: missing... Tofu: like chewed up cardboard. BUT INSTEAD, it had a college side dish of cubic carrot, peas, corn & broccoli spread throughout the roll- like the kind of stuff you get in the frozen food aisle.God, how I miss Andre Chin and his Artisan Boulanger Patissier.

Very easy to order ahead and good quality!Not the best pho in west Philly but great location for the locals.Grilled pork is on the dryer side and smaller pieces.

YUMM! This was part of the Market place in Chestnut Hill. You can eat right in front or outside. -- we chose to stay inside and eat right in front of the owner. Best choice we ever made.Food was really good and I don't even like pho like that. Give it a try! We will definitely head back here!!

The pho here is.....fine but just fine. If you're craving pho and you live in chestnut hill or Mt airy, this is your only option so it is what it is but definitely don't go out of your way for it. Here's why I'm scoring it so low: first off, they serve it in flimsy plastic bowls and I think that's gross because of the bpa in the flimsy plastic that leaches into hot liquids. Second, they serve the bean sprouts, peppers, lime, and basil in a little plastic baggie and they were old and slimy. So gross. Basically I think they are set up only for take out/delivery and are pre-setup for delivery. Very efficient but the baggies make the sides gross. Will I go here again? Maybe in a pinch but there is definitely MUCH better in Philadelphia. If they treated their product and produce with more respect they would be pretty good but they don't so it's not.

Saigon Noodle Bar is a great addition to the Chestnut Hill Farmers Market bringing Vietnamese cooking to Chestnut Hill. You can eat at this stand in the market or at a table outside ... or just do takeout as I did. They'll give you a beeper to alert you when your order is ready so you can shop in the market or go buy a beer and claim your outdoor table if you are eating there and the weather is nice.Now the food ranged from great to decent. I loved the Chao Tom! This famous shrimp mixture wrapped around sugar cane is a special treat from the Hue region of Vietnam. At Saigon Noodle Bar it was expertly prepared and the accompanying fish sauce added to its flavors. The Cha Gio were also good and well filled. I like dipping these in fish sauce as well but at this point I was running low of the one sauce portion they included. That became more of a problem to me with my main dish of Bun Thit Nu'o'ng. It was okay but I need some sauce for the noodles, veggies, and salad ... or some seasoning. Fish sauce would work fine but I had used all mine up. Note to restaurant - put in two portions of fish sauce and not just one! Fortunately since I was at home I could make up a nice & spicy Thai sauce (ok I know it's not Vietnamese) and it worked well with the noodles and salad. I don't want to fail to mention that the staff working at this Vietnamese eatery were very friendly ... and probably would have given me more sauce if I had known at the time of purchase how little was included. I would def return to Saigan Noodle Bar but switch up my main course. The Chao Tom, however, I would easily order again!

This hidden gem is located in the Chestnut Hill Farmers Market. The food is amazing and delicious. Charlie, will help you navigate the menu if you are a first timer, he's super friendly. I usually get a combo with grilled pork, rice noodles, salad and spring roll. It's ridiculously good. Try it, you'll love it! Sometimes I eat right there at the noodle bar or at one of many tables either inside the Farmers Market or outside in the lush garden surrounded eating area.
