Love this place! Always have dinner here before a Tower concert. Excellent and very affordable Vietnamese food. Everything is excellent and the nicest people too :) read more

Absolutely fantastic Vietnamese food. Authentic. I live about twenty-five minutes away on a good day, and we travel to eat here. The summer rolls are my favorite and the tomato crab Pho a close second. Quickly becoming a favorite. Unassuming little place that would be easy to overlook but definitely should not be! Finish your meal off with their iced coffee. Awesome. read more

Located just across from the Municipal building, Little Saigon has been serving authentic Vietnamese food for around twenty years. The inconspicuous exterior flows into a modest, yet inviting, dining area with seating for around twenty people. The restaurant is a true American family business. Mom and dad work as the greeters/waiters while grandpa refills water glasses and their daughter does her homework at a table. Many of my family friends are on a first name basis with the owners and update each other about their children each time they visit. I wrote a review in The Acorn (Upper Darby High School's newspaper) three years ago and to this day the owners remember me and ask how college is going each time I visit. Every meal comes with a complimentary salad of crisp iceberg lettuce with ginger dressing. The salad is great for its lightness (leaving room for the hefty entrees) and flavor (their dressing is my favorite of any kind I've ever had). The menu at Little Saigon is extensive and has great options for vegetarians, meat lovers and seafood lovers. A must for all eaters is the summer rolls, which are cold noodles and vegetables wrapped in rice paper served with peanut sauce. Other great appetizers include the Vietnamese crepe (fried egg with bean sprouts) and spring rolls. Little Saigon is BYOB. That being said, if you are looking for a non-alcoholic beverage I recommend the Vietnamese (iced) coffee, which is served with condensed milk, making adding sugar unnecessary. The jasmine tea is also quite good and never disappoints. As in most Asian restaurants, sharing entrees and appetizers allows you to get the most out of your dining experience, giving you a taste of everything the restaurant offers. The slightly large size of the entrees makes them conducive to being shared. It is perfectly fine, however, to order one entree per person, especially for heavy eaters. You'll definitely want to take anything that's left home for lunch the next day. My two favorite dishes at Little Saigon are the Vegetable curry with tofu and the vegetable noodle soup. The curry is a great assortment of broccoli, bamboo shoot, carrots, and other vegetables with large cubes of tofu that have a nice sear to it. The vegetable noodle soup (with vegetable broth) is the perfect comfort food. I've gotten non-vegetarian friends hooked on it. The vermicelli noodles are thin, long, and delicious and the broth is warm and flavorful. Another great dish is the pan fried noodles, which can be served vegetarian or with meat. This dish, in particular, makes great leftovers, as the noodles begin to absorb the sauce. Favorites of my meat eating friends include the pork dumplings, wonton soup, and the hot pots. Prices at Little Saigon hover around $10, with many entrees around $8-9. Make sure to leave room for dessert! The che bap (warm sticky rice with corn and coconut milk) here is wonderful. If I had a Vietnamese grandmother, this is how I'd picture her cooking. Little Saigon is a place that I grew up with and hope to continue to visit for many more years. read more

Fantastic food! You have to try it. Plenty of parking. Don't miss their Pho and one of the best spring rolls ever!! Nice atmosphere and friendly hosts read more

Great rolls and Pho... Based on reco's we tried #1, 21 and 29. Was very impressed. Great service and affordable.

What a wonderful find! We were looking to go out for Vietnamese food, but this time we didn't want to drive down to Center City (further distance) and deal with the hassle of parking. We "yelped" reviews of local Vietnamese restaurants, and decided on Little Saigon. What a great find! We will be loyal customers. Everything we ordered was delicious! We had the Nem Nuong (grilled meatballs with salad and vermicelli), the vietnamese crepe with shrimp and pork, the spring rolls with barbecued pork on rice vermicelli noodles, and the #29 noodle soup with meat. The food came with a salad...and for dessert we had the Che Bop (warm sticky rice with corn and coconut milk). Everything was reasonably priced. The restaurant is very casual and BYOB. One thing was better than the next...and we will be back to try more! Highly recommend! read more

The best food- the nicest owners. What more can you ask for ? Get the meat skewers and soups.

Very good food and very reasonable prices. The owner is very gracious and tries to please. Not being too familiar with Vietnamese food, we asked him for suggestions and were very pleased with what we got. read more

I would give this place six stars if I could. The food is always awesome and the folks who own it are the best. Go. You will not regret it.

The food here is excellent and the staff is very friendly. The crab and tomato soup was amazing and the vietnamese eggroll was a meal in itself. Can't wait to go back! read more

Really enjoyed our meal here. We actually were in the area to go to another restaurant, but their credit card machine was out of order, and we did not have enough cash, so, we decided to try Little Saigon. I am so glad we made this choice. The service was great, the food was very good and plentiful. We ordered the crispy spring rolls for appetizer which were really good. They also served salad on the house. Since we are not beef eaters, we ordered a variation of the Pho, chicken pho and a vegetarian item which were all very flavorful... The meal was filling, ended up taking left overs home. Overall, a decent meal for an affordable price. Will definitely go back! read more

This is THE BEST Vietnamese EVER! I used to come here all the time when I lived in Upper Darby but I now live in Chester County. That being said, my husband and I will drive over an hour to have the crepes because no one makes them as good as they do here. I have tried them in other places. They just don't have the flavor. I have never had a dish here that I didn't like but the crepe and crab soup are my favorite. I have been going here for years and it is my favorite restaurant! read more

The folks who run this restaurant are great people who are very customer service oriented. I know when I was there I heard the server modify spices and adapt the dishes to accommodate some other diners. The food is perfection, in terms of food this restaurant rates a 5. Recently I have eaten the spring rolls that are the best, some rice noodle dishes with vegetables, mixed sea food that were great and the summer rolls which include rice noodles in a soft roll that were wonderful. Soups are outstanding. The atmosphere is quite nice but not fancy which is why I did not give the extra star but what keeps the prices reasonable. If you want to be waited on by nice people, eat good Vietnamese reasonably food in a nice atmosphere then this place is for you. BYOB is also a plus. read more

This is a nice find! There are many "similar" restaurants in the area, but this one does more than serve good Pho. We were pleasantly surprised with the breadth of menu items available. We stopped by during a late lunch and they were about 25% full. For some reason, sound seems to travel in the restaurant, so we could hear others conversations, even when many tables away from one another. We just chose to speak very quietly to one another, but found ourselves laughing a few times when a loud woman across the restaurant was expressing her political views. Anyway, the food is great! read more

This BYOB has excellent food and friendly service, perfect for when you want great Vietnamese but don't want to go all the way to Washington Ave. The food is great overall (shoutout to the pho, spring rolls, and that addictive salad dressing), and the prices are certainly right. The interior is simple but clean, and all of the employees are so sweet and helpful. read more

From the moment my husband and I entered, we knew Little Saigon was THE place for us. The owner couldn't have been any friendlier! The restaurant was clean and inviting! The food...extremely savory and filling! We started off with the spring rolls because we read they were fantastic! Well, no lie! They are ligit! We ordered the Pho #22 and we both were amazed at how delicious it was! We will be going back for more and will not go to any other Vietnamese restaurant! read more

Great food and great service. Place was packed and the server never stopped smiling. Food was some up there as some of the best Vietnamese food I ever had and the prices were great. It's our new stop every time we see a show at the Tower. read more

Ordered takeout from here last night. The food was phenomenal and the family that runs the restaurant are the absolute sweetest. I ordered the bon bo hue, beef sticks and the summer rolls. Everything was excellent and the portions are more than enough to have 2 nights worth of dinner. The owner recommended that I try the spring rolls next and I know I will definitely be a returning customer. read more

Ate here recently with a couple of friends and the service was great, so was the food. We walked in near to closing time but they insisted we stay even after we said we didn't want to keep them open too long. Food was amazing - my one friend has never had Vietnamese food before and she was blown away. I got a pork claypot, it was delicious with lots of rice on the side. The wait staff was polite and even had a chat with us while we waited for our food. It's a great (and clean!) little gem right off of 69th Street! read more

The family who owns this restaurant is very welcoming-- they greeted us like old friends when we walked in. The spring rolls were delicious, as was the vegetable dish (can't remember the name) that I got. This place is also conveniently located right around the corner from H-Mart. read more

Quaint and spectacular. We stopped by before a show at the Tower Theater and we LOVED this place. Ambiance is old-school and 'no frills.' Service is attentive (although they do not speak much English, which is fine by us). Food is fantastic. We were so impressed by the quality and care in every dish. The meals were delicious! Can't wait to stop by again! read more

The pho was ok. The soup was a bit too sweet to my liking. I know that it is family owned but with one person working in the guest area may be challenging at the expense of a slow service. The quality of the food was ok. The Owner was friendly and personable. read more

I always seem to forget that Upper Darby is pretty close by and I have complained about the lack of Vietnamese restaurants on the Mainline (none-although a Pho place is supposedly opening up soon in Bryn Mawr). Really wanted Vietnamese food and didn't want to go to West Philly or Italian Market area. Drove to Upper Darby and did a quick Yelp search and Little Saigon popped up. I have walked by the place many times. This place is a GEM! I am so happy I took a chance. We received complimentary salads as soon as we sat down. My friend and I ordered the crispy spring rolls ( the best I have ever had!) and we both ordered Pho. The broth was very flavorful. I think this place has better Pho than Vietnam Cafe in West Philly or Pho Ha on Washington Avenue. The place is small but my friend and I loved it. I will definitely be going back! read more

Great place owned by a viet couple. Friendly, clean and quality food. Try their pho its unlike any other I've tried in philly. Recommended!

Very nice place. I tried the pho, crispy spring rolls, and pork vermicelli. Pho is really good, great broth. Spring rolls are excellent as advertised. Pork vermicelli was average, good average, but nothing special. Will come back again. 5 stars for the price point. read more

My very favorite place for Vietnamese spring roll and pho. I have been eating here for over twenty years and never disappointed.

Little Saigon is a delicious Vietnamese experience. The spring rolls and barbecue pork (#12) are phenomenal, and be sure to get an order of the sticky coconut rice for dessert. The owners of Little Saigon are so personable and Ed is always eager to offer recommendations based on your likes. On top of that, their prices can't be beat and you can BYOB! read more

The folks working here are nice enough. Bottles of Siracha and Hoison were filthy. Pho broth was tasty but way too much gristle in bo vein. Will probably not visit again since there are better options. read more

Best Vietnamese food I have ever had. The spring rolls are ridiculously good. The interior is nothing fancy, but who cares when the food is that delicious. read more

Great food, with lots of good options on the menu including a nice selection of vegetarian dishes. The vegetables in my pan fried noodles were crisp and colorful, and the sauce was really delicious. The service was friendly and prompt. Based on the takeout interactions we observed, the restaurant has many regulars, who were greeted by the restaurant staff like old friends. I like Pho Street in Springfield, too, but this will definitely be my first choice for Vietnamese food near Drexel Hill. read more

The best little hole in the wall you can find. Been going for years. Everything is really well done. Spring rolls are a must. Better than anything you can find in the city. My girlfriend and I frequently take the subway here from center city for excellent cheap dates. read more

This place brings the word authentic a whole new meaning. The only place in Philadelphia that has in essencez body, and soul what its like to eat real Vietnamese food. I almost don't want to write a review so you shlubs don't cause wait here. This is a family owned and operated restaurant. That's been here for well over 30 years and nothing has changed except for the TV because its that dam good. read more

My parents have been taking me here since I was a little kid. Little Saigon is owned by the absolutely nicest family and serves some of the best Vietnamese food for very affordable prices. My favorite menu item is probably the vegetarian pan-fried noodles, and the spring rolls are the bomb. read more

Hands down Little Saigon serves up the best Vietnamese dishes in the city. Their service comes directly from the family owned staff, packaged with a smile, speedy service, and an atmosphere that feels as though they invited you over for dinner. The food seems to be made with the same love and attention as any home cooked meal should. Everything, from the spring rolls to the Pho, is very tasty. Speaking of Pho, the broth is a well balanced assembly of ingredients other restaurants can only dream of emulating. I would gladly recommend Little Saigon for those new to Vietnamese Cuisine. Just as eagerly, I would recommend it for those that can't live without Vietnamese cuisine, like myself. There is only one disappointment. That is with myself, for not frequenting this hidden gem as much as I should. read more

Good food but expect to be sitting for awhile....

Best Vietnamese food in the Western Suburbs. Wonderful spring rolls and soups, with my favorite the My Tho. Very good luncheon dishes, and quite good dinner dishes. Very reasonable prices. Great family-run place in Upper Darby. read more

Delicious Pho, & my favorite number 12 on the menu . Could use a new paint job . But other then that delicious food .

Being gluten intoleret it's hard for me to eat at places, pho is always an option but when I went here this was heaven. The service, food, and the whole ambiance is just perfect. Best pho I have had. Worth the trip where ever your coming from. It's family owned for 2 generations and operating for 27 years and still counting. You can feel the passion for the food, it is delicious. read more

Little Saigon / "Edward's" (as we call it) is about the best food - Vietnamese or otherwise - anywhere! His spring rolls are to die for, summer rolls are delicious, the pancakes are outta-sight and that's just the appetizers! His fish in a clay pot is extraordinary! We often bring groups of good friends here and order to eat family style which works great as everyone can try a little of everything. As others have said on here, just go once and Edward will remember you for a lifetime. Little Saigon is a truly special place with authentic food and a personality that cannot be matched. read more

I love this hole in the wall Vietnamese place. The owner here is so friendly. He even remembers everything about what I said the last time I was here. That's so funny. The food here is a delight. The pho is amazing. Had the right amount of meat and noodles with good seasonings. Starting on it takes me to Vietnam and only brings me back after I'm done with my pho. Lot of regulars here, so be prepared for it to be slow. read more
