    Fresh spring roll with pork, shrimp and rice noodles
    HoyMay P.

    We met friends for dinner at Little Saigon. The place was fairly crowded considering it was a Monday evening. After reviewing the menu we decided on Lemongrass chicken with vegetables, beef with vegetables, beef vermicelli, and shrimp vermicelli. Service is always fast here. I ordered the lemongrass chicken. It is pretty spicy. The flavoring was really nice with a fish sauce in it. It was probably spicier than I wanted. Think I'll go back to my noodle order next time. It was good to try something different though. I would give my dish four stars. Otherwise everything else gets five stars. Free street parking outside.

    Overall This experience was very frustrating from start to finish and made the entire meal feel unpleasant. The restaurant seems to charge for every little thing and the staff is slow and forgetful. Having to get up so many times just to remind them about our order is simply not acceptable. I really hope things improve, especially for long time customers who have supported this place for years Ambience The ambience was very cute and charming. The space feels inviting and has a pleasant atmosphere. Food The food was good. We ordered the catfish spring rolls and they were delicious once everything finally made it to the table. Service The service was the biggest issue and it was very disappointing, especially since my family has been coming here for 3 years. Parts of our order were missing, including several side dishes and even the sauce for the spring rolls. We asked for a cup of ice and that was missing too. We waited about 10 minutes after receiving the catfish before the vegetables were brought out and we had to keep asking for simple items. It's a shame because things taste best when the food is still hot, but the catfish was already cold once they brought out all the small dishes that came with the main dish. Because the staff was moving so slowly, we ended up walking to the counter (6 times) just to follow up on things that should have been brought to us without asking. It honestly felt like we were serving ourselves. There should be no excuse why service was so slow because there's two waitress and only one other table. The Vietnamese coffee tasted sickly sweet and burnt. After taking one sip, I asked to switch to a Thai tea, hoping it would be better, but that drink was also extremely sickenly sweet. I returned it after one sip as well. I was surprised to see that I was charged for both drinks and was told it was because I drank them, which did not feel fair at all. They even charged us for the lemon slices.

    After several years of not coming here, the food is still delicious and reasonable. The service is excellent and they are so friendly and polite. The ambiance is homey and cozy.

    3.5 Ventured here for dinner on a Saturday night. Wasn't really busy but we sat in the entry way for a good 10 mins before someone finally came out to seat us. It's in an old house so it really felt like you were having dinner at a relatives house. They have a large menu and good variety of choices. We ordered: Spring rolls: very good. Freshly made to order. Pork was well marinated in lemongrass. Egg rolls: on the smaller side but made it easier to eat. Served with lettuce and herbs. Very good. Banh xeo: almost identical to my moms. Just wish it was more crispy. Beef pho: served HOT which I appreciate. broth was very clear and lacked much flavor. Noodles were overcooked and mushy. Little beef. Just okay. Loaded with msg. Because I could feel it after eating. Complaints are: Everything came out at one time. Service was very slow. Only two people working from what I could see. I feel we spent more time waiting for our check than we did eating. But I would go back to try other dishes.

    We stopped in after walking around downtown, a great little house converted into a restaurant. We tried two of the middle salads, the beef and shrimp pho, and the potstickers. Everything had layers of flavor but the potstickers were by far the winner of the meal. They were almost like Vietnamese pierogi. We will 100% be back!

    Great service from San the moment we walked in. A very cute, homey and clean establishment tucked in Downtown Glendale. San took great care of us and we were ultimately happy with our meal! We ordered the beef pho and it was flavorful and came out quickly. I had a small issue with the lemongrass chicken but Kathy took care of it and was so sweet and helpful! Will for sure come again.

    The crepe - plenty for 4!

    I did not expect to be able to find good Vietnamese food in Phoenix. Boy was I proved wrong. Everything was excellent with very fresh vegetables and perfect balance of spices. Not too oily and very flavorful. For our non-adventurous eater, we were able to get a beef stir-fry with veggies. The rest of us loved the cumin spiced fish specialty dish, spring rolls (excellent), pork belly, and the crepe was delicious as well. Finally, the service was excellent. The ambiance was classy (great place to take your mom!). Nice clean bathrooms and a not too bright lighting. So all in all a very pleasant experience.

    All these years later and still just as amazing. We came for an early dinner and were pleasantly surprised or be seated right away. We started with egg rolls and then all three of us ended up ordering pho, two beef and shrimp and one with chicken. The flavors were awesome and veggies fresh. Service was great and we had no issues at all.

    I love the ambiance of this place. I made a slight change to my Springfield roll order, no problem. The food arrived at the table pretty quickly, considering the account of customers. I will definitely visit again soon! The restaurant can accommodate large groups. Great place for date night. There's outdoor/indoor seating available. Accessible parking and entrance.

    What a charming little Vietnamese restaurant @littlesaigonaz inside of an old house in historic downtown Glendale @historicdowntownglendale . With several different rooms tucked away throughout the restaurant, we were given a sense of privacy and intimacy. There's a large patio out front under a huge, old tree that I would love to sit under when the weather is cooler to watch shoppers walk by on the quiet downtown street. At night, the exterior and patio are lit up with colorful Christmas lights for a warm, welcoming feel. My daughter and Hubs came by last week for dinner after acupuncture across the street and came home raving about the delicious spicy chicken dish and pho. We all wanted to return this Wednesday and try dinner. The service was extremely attentive and friendly. We were sat at a large round table in the main room near the register. We ordered: - 03.

Hubs and my other daughter said the pho was outstanding last night. I enjoyed every bite of my chicken curry dish with a side of veggies subbed for rice. It was spicy and flavorful, but not so much that I couldn't handle it and the vegetables were steamed just right. I was definitely sweating at the end of the meal in a good way.

    Our first time trying Little Saigon and we were pleasantly surprised. The service was fast and great! We got seated right away. It feels like you're visiting a family home. Food was great as well. We will be back soon.

    First time here and was pleasantly surprised. The pho took a little linger to get than most other places, or perhaps they were waiting for us to eat our appetizer. 1. The meat was not as plentiful as the majority of other pho places which was a little disappointing, however, 2. The pho broth was obviously home made with live, not a bullion based pho. Although it could have used more star anise IMO. 3, the place while small as most pho places are, it didn't feel that way. I did NOT feel like i was elbows touching other dinners as many other pho places are. As a bigger woman i did NoT feel like i had to squeeze by other tables. 4. The staff were very pleasant and we did not have to wait for refills. And they handled special requests such as no onion garnishes on my soup were pleasantly handled. Even when I asked for a teaspoon of their spring roll sauce so that I could see what it was like for next time they had no problems with. It was a little dark, but I was still able to read the menu. And the darkness was actually comforting after being out in the Phoenix Sun. 5. The music was a nice level, we could talk across the table and NOT feel like we had to yell. I would suggest to the owners to either get rid of or take care of your fish tank better. I felt bad for the 1-2 fish inside it. The water was cloudy and probably needed a water change or the filtration changed out. And the inside glass needed cleaning for beginning of algae. It could have been a nice feature, but instead looks like a neglected decor afterthought. 6. I would come here again, especially if you want a sit down experience, or are brining guests and you wont feel rushed.

    A delightful little hidden gem in downtown Glendale! We went on a Saturday at 1 PM and got right in with no wait. We had the rice noodle salad with shrimp and it was incredible! The shrimp was seasoned and cooked perfectly, the dressing that went over the noodle salad was fresh and bright, and you could add a little spice with the chili, which made it perfect! Highly highly recommend it was super delicious

The spring rolls were also super good. They were wrapped nicely so it didn't fall apart when biting and the ratio of noodles to veggies was perfect.
