My Vietnamese friends recommended this place for their Bun Bo Hue and they weren't wrong. I've had my fair share of Bun Bo Hue while traveling around Hue, Vietnam and I must say that this is definitely one of the best out there. The best part of the dish was undoubtedly the broth. The broth is very rich and deep in flavor. Although it has an intense color, it wasn't too spicy. Highly recommend!
I came here on a Saturday night. My friend and I travelled all the way to Argyle for some pho. We wanted to try a place we haven't tried before. Miss Saigon caught our attention with their interior and the amount of people eating inside. It wasn't packed but we secured a nice little table by the front of the restaurant. The waiter came to us after maybe 3-5 minutes. I ordered the pho with everything and my friend ordered the pho with meatball. We also ordered the banh mi with fries. I would say that the fries were so good. It was crispy and flavorful. The banh mi was nothing special, just what you expect. The phos however were really oily. It was oily because they added short ribs to the soup. The pho noodles were also not as thin as we expected. It was more of a flat noodle.
We stopped by here to try, thinking all the pho places should be pretty good at Argyle. It's definitely have a nice atmosphere and pretty modern and spacious. They use really nice water cups. The food wasn't bad but not super spectacular. They use the thick wide rice noodles for pho, the soup base is not bad tho. We tried their sampler platter and thought nothing really stood out, the shrimp roll which I judge a place on is pretty plain, no special veggies like mint or basil inside. The peanut sauce and the sweet sauce were okay too, not bad but also not spectacular. I was interested in their southern style chicken based pho with egg noodles. I thought it was not bad but my husband didn't like it. It kinda tastes like instant ramen broth, but better, if you know what I mean. It had seafood but all were a little too tough/overcooked. The bao was fine too, pretty small and the meat were a little tough. We weren't super impressed but it is still better than the really bad pho places, at least the pho broth tastes like pho. The only issue we had was that the staff appeared to be sick but they didn't wear a mask or anything. Hope we didn't catch anything from the restaurant!! Overall I think the quality and the quantity were a little less than we expected for the price they charge.
The Uptown neighborhood in Chicago is full of delicious pho options and this was one I only recently discovered on recommendation of a friend. Miss Saigon has all the makings of the traditional pho joint you get in the neighborhood with all the modernness of a new restaurant. Cool vibes and great food make for a great experience! Super open concept so you don't feel crammed in at all. Service is great and you get your food quick .
Wanted to try a new Pho place from the usual spot I go to on Argyle. Food was ok at best for the money you are spending. Broth of flavorful and the meat serving was generous. I did not know/expect the noodles were the wide noodles and not thin ones. Service was not great. The only time I saw a waiter coming to our table was taking our orders and filling the water cups once, other than dropping off food. Meal was finished and trying to get them to come over so I can pay for the meal. Watched them socialize with each other, check other tables out, and made multiple eye contacts with them and nothing. I finally decided to get up to go up and pay, that's when I was told they will meet me at the table. Overall experience was not great or even good. Will definitely be eating around at other places.
I got the short rib noodle salad, papaya salad, and my friend ordered the shrimp noodle salad. I wish they had the grilled pork noodle salad. Their menu is relatively small but portions were all large. I enjoyed the papaya salad a lot. I would not get the short rib again as it was not much meat.
My family from California came to visit and were craving solid Vietnamese food by the tail end of their trip. We ordered it bbq pork baos, pho Saigon and bun bo hue. The pho and BBH broth is slightly on the sweeter side but still so good, broth is very developed and clean. My family are pretty tough critics on Vietnamese food and they were happy with the meal, comparable to back home. I like how they offer pickled garlic/chilies on the side, you don't get that often. Might be the top BBH and pho place I've found in Chicago so far, especially in Argyle. Clean restaurant and friendly service. When I'm craving pho or BBH, this would be my go to.
Love everything about Miss Saigon Every time I'm in Chicago, I have to swing by for lunch and comfort food. Their signatures are Pho and Crispy Chicken, but I still haven't tried the Pho because I'm hooked on that crispy chicken. It's SO good! You can get it with fried rice or noodles, and both are solid choices. The chicken is super flavorful, crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside. The taste is so authentic it really reminds me of home. Their Bun Bo Hue is also incredible and really comforting. The staff here is 10/10. They were super thoughtful and welcoming, and they made me feel extra special when I mentioned I was visiting from out of town. The restaurant is in the heart of Vietnam Town. It's pretty small, but cozy and clean. Exactly what I look for in a comfort food spot
I would say this has amazing Bun Bo Hue, and I know when it's good. The flavors and color was there, so much fresh herbs that came out. The Pho Saigon was also filled with flavor, just wish it came out a little hotter. The service was great and I loved the ambiance inside. It was Vietnamese music playing and sometimes I rarely hear it in restaurants. We also had the Rolls Sampler which came with two egg rolls and spring rolls which were also fresh. Loves this place and wished I found it earlier.
I was feeling a little under the weather so I thought getting some pho would be a good idea. I was right. The staff seated us right away, the ambiance was cute. I ordered the short rib pho and a cup of hot tea it hit the spot and was quite delicious.

i have never ordered this dish in vietnamese restaurants before but i am glad that i ordered it for the first time here. it was very tasty but more importantly the flavors were very nostalgic to me. tastes exactly like how my mom would season it although she probably can't make the chicken this crispy LOL. a very warm, comforting meal to me and they played good vietnamese music here! my heart grew bigger after this experience. thank you for the recommendation from my dear senior friend whose like my grandma away from home she is so wise for this one!! read more

During my visit to Chicago from out of state, I always make sure to stop by this restaurant for lunch. The flavors of the food make me feel like I'm eating in my hometown in Vietnam. The dishes are incredibly delicious, with a careful attention to detail in each preparation. The service is exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff who make the dining experience pleasant and relaxed. The restaurant's atmosphere is inviting, clean, and "chill," adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking an authentic Vietnamese dining experience in Chicago. It's definitely worth a visit. read more
Came in a rainy weekend day. The restaurant was bright and ambiance was good. Was greeted immediately and advised on how to navigate the menu. We ordered the wings, traditional Pho, and a beef rib plate. Everything came out quickly and piping hot. The wings were delicious with a spicy umami flavor. The Korean beef ribs were tender and paired well with the fish sauce. The Pho was "ok". Not bad but definitely not the best I've had in the city. It lacked depth of flavor but the traditional add ins helped with that. read more

Incredible pho restaurant! For much of my life I have had poor experiences with pho that led me to believe it wasn't a great food in general, but places like this have helped change my perception. All of the pho bowls are very hearty and filling. I chose the beef slices pho, but you probably won't go wrong with any of them. It is at a slightly higher price point than many pho restaurants, but this is worth it. read more

Wanted to try a different pho restaurant than our usual in argyle. Can say we were very pleased with the food and service. The pho was light but flavorful and not super greasy. We also ordered the combination fried rice and it was delicious, garlicky and not too salty. We got it spicy and it had a warm heat that wasn't over the top. Also got the milk tea and a mango lychee fruit tea. Both were also very good. Our server was kind and food didn't take long to come out. Will def be eating here again. read more
The food is great and I liked the sampler plates because I was just feeling rolls that day. They have fried shrimp rolls--my favorite. The milk tea was fine. But you really need to flag down someone if you need anything (for example: ordering, water, paying the bill) and it wasn't busy at all when I came. I'd probably come back to try the pho. read more

Came here multiple times and I'd say it's a solid spot for Vietnamese food. Vibe is pretty relaxing and it's never busy when I go (not a bad thing, quicker service for me!) The Saigon pho - this one is unique and I'd say the broth is on the sweeter side and it's probably due to the short rib (which is really yummy). Solid 8/10 if I want pho on a sweeter side The bun salad - now that's really refreshing. Gotta add the beef short rib 8/10. I can taste the fish sauce read more

This is a good spot! I had the pho Saigon which I'd rate a 4/5, yummy but not world changing as the beef was a little tough. The crispy chicken mi kho was amazing and 5/5. Highly recommend you get that dish! The service is great, and the ambiance is casual and inviting. Would come back for the mi kho again! read more
Stopped by Miss Saigon for a late lunch on a Sunday afternoon. The place was empty with a few carry out orders ready for pick up. Service was fantastic and we had a lot of fun talking to our waiter. Super nice guy! We ordered the Beef Short Rib Noodle Salad, Pho (Beef Slices) and also got BBQ Pork Banh Mi Sandwich and Pork Chops (Suon) with Rice to go. The Beef Short Rib Noodle Salad has mixed vegetables with white rice noodles and served with an eggroll. Flavor was on point. A good 'safe" choice to order if you're unsure about Vietnamese food. I got the pho with beef slices. The broth was very flavorful. Make sure you add all the items on the plate it comes with (bean sprouts, basil, etc..) in your soup! HIghly recommend trying their Pho if you've never had it before. BBQ Pork Banh Mi Sandwich is based with mayo and pate, comes with slow cooked Chinese BBQ pork(char siew) and topped with pickled carrot-daikon, cilantro, cucumber, and jalapenos (i picked off the jalapenos) with a side of French fries or shrimp chips. First bite of the sandwich you can taste a bit a sweetness to it. Then you get the taste of the rest of the ingredients. Very well balanced. They didn't skimp on the meat. The Pork Chops with Rice was just as delicious. A very simple dish that has been marinated well with good flavor. Another starter dish if you're unsure what to get there. I definitely would recommend coming here for lunch or dinner! The place was clean. Bathroom was clean. Friendly staff. Good Food! =) read more
Very good! We both got the pho "saigon". Lots of meat! I was filled up. We also got fried eggrolls but it came with a diff sauce then fish sauce so that was weird. Didn't care for it too much. I also got one of the fruit teas (mix of lychee and peach) which was very refreshing. They don't rush you out which is nice but you gotta get their attention for service. My server was very nice. The soap dispenser in the bathroom wasn't working but there was so in it....hope that gets fixed. Nice menu, I saw some Korean ramen and pork buns... I'd come back! The soup was salty and flavorful. read more

2.5 stars Miss Saigon was just okay. I came to try their pho. But it did not hit the mark for me. Lovely ambience and clean. But the flavor and aroma was not there. I liked the spring rolls. Presentation was nice. Note they do not cook with msg. read more

Came in for dinner on a Monday. It was somewhat packed, but one table for four was open for us. It took a while to get service, because they only had one waiter for the whole restaurant:( so it was understandable why it was slow. I remember hearing about this place before from a friend so wanted to give it a chance. Bun Bo hue: honestly was a disappointed with it. For my standard of BBH, it was just bland. I was expecting a more spicy and seafood like taste, but it was not added or felt watered down. The quantity of noodle and meat were lacking as well. If I wanted BBH I would just go to cafe Hoang down the block. 4.2/10 Some of the other dishes looked good so maybe I'll give em another chance next time! read more
Very solid option for Vietnamese food in Argyle! Their Grilled Shrimp Noodle Salad is amazing and the portions are great! My group also tried the Saigon Sampler Appetizers and we all loved it! Everyone in my group enjoyed their food. Service was great. Really nothing to complain about. When my group was eating, there was a homeless man who kept coming into the shop multiple times and bothering the customers. It was a little alarming but the staff did a good job keeping him out and locking the front door when needed. read more

The servers were very helpful & accommodating. I appreciated the atmosphere with street photos & exposed brick. Came with a group of 6 and sat comfortably since the restaurant wasn't packed. The Bon Bu Hue was not spicy for my tolerance since I added the jalapenos and more siracha. I would say out of the spicy soups in Argyle I liked the taste of the broth the most. The meat & noodles in it were soft and everything was comforting for a windy, rainy day. read more

ordered the bun bo hue. flavor was okay/decent and service was okay as well. took forever for them to come check up on us and take our order but they gave a big plate of veggies and the meat was good. the pho noodle is also a bit different than regular thin noodles for the pho, it's the flat wide noodles but the bun bo hue noodles were the same read more

Miss Saigon is a must-have, especially Bun Bo Hue. If you want good, flavorful pho, Miss Saigon has it. The service there won't disappoint. read more
My group came in here because we didn't want to wait to get into Tank Noodle and honestly, not a bad backup. Tank noodle has more authentic dishes and variety of protein in their pho. I was disappointed to see items like fries and Korean ramen soup on the menu of a restaurant called Miss Saigon (which we got anyways because my friend's son likes those foods). Shrug okay fries were good lol Miss Saigon's pho broth was good, noodles a tad firm (this can be left to personal preference and is too minor to count towards review) , and meats okay. Sweet n sour chicken wings were good size, tender but not juicy, sauce okay. read more

Miss Saigon is one of my new favorite go to spots for delicious food and drinks. The service here is pretty awesome and takeout is just as good. The ambiance is very family oriented and I love their customer service. I've been stopping by every weekend to get their passion and pineapple smoothies especially when the weather is hot. I also love their pork chops, beef short ribs, and sweet & sour chicken wings. This is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant and highly recommend you pay them a visit. read more

Love this place! Came on a Wednesday for a quick dinner with my boyfriend and I was surprised at how big the place is in the inside! We got to pick a spot where to sit and got our menus and waters right away. There were so many options to choose from! Thankfully, their appetizer offers samplers and we got the Saigon Sampler (Asian wings, crab rangoons, butterfly shrimps, and egg rolls). We also ordered 3 bao tacos with bbq pork, bbq pork banh mi, and bun bo hue. We also shared a Vietnamese iced coffee which was drip coffee and condense milk over ice and was super strong. The food came out really fast and tasted AMAZING! We loved all the flavors. It became extremely busy towards the end of our meal which became a little tricky to hunt a server down for the check. We ended up paying ~$50 plus tip. Will definitely come back here especially because it is BYOB! read more

I really like Vietnamese food. This place is a good place for it. The tables are rustic and the atmosphere is relaxed. Today the waiters were Thai and Dante'. Both of them were efficient and very friendly. They knew their stuff. I had vegetarian Spring rolls . In stead of the peanut sauce ( I could have had it) I had their own version of soy sauce. It was good tight rolls. I had the BBQ pork Bahn Mi sandwich. They BBQ the pork themselves and it was very good. They had a dessert called honey cake. It is Russian style. There are very thin layers and honey. It is not too sweet but very tasty. It is worth regular visits. They have a good sized menu and they had all kinds of folks there. It was not overly expensive and popular. There were people of at least 3 races there and had several to go orders also. read more
I have been meaning to try miss Saigon for a while. As a resident of Argyle there are so many different Vietnamese specialty cuisine spaces but it takes a while for me to get around to all of them. I will say that I was pleasantly surprised with Miss Saigon. The Exterior has always been a stand out for me when passing this location and seeing the interior up close and personal it was even better. It's very modern with kind of a hip-hop Asian fusion with still enough of the traditional. The wait staff was very attentive and didn't overstay their welcome and tried best to accommodate. I ordered short ribs beef Pho with a side of egg rolls and strawberry mango smoothie which was delicious and cooked to perfection. You can tell the chief puts pride into their presentation. My only note about the short ribs was I could tell they used the same sauce for Korean Beef which made the rib a bit sweet that can be a plus or negative depending on your taste. My associates ordered the chicken and noodles and I believe the eggroll salad. My friend who order the chicken and noodles loved it and said that it was the best chicken and noodles he had ever had simply because of how cooked and fried to perfection the chicken was. He said and I quote, "I would buy the chicken skin if I could". The one who ordered the egg rolls salad didn't know what to expect. Being that this was her first Time being at a Vietnamese restaurant she was excited and wanted pho and thought she ordered something like pho and got eggrolls salad thus not really enjoy the experience as much however the wait staff brought her some chicken broth she added it to her eggrolls salad and thoroughly enjoyed it. Overall I really enjoyed the experience and the food. I would recommend this spot for either a lunchtime snack or early dinner with friends. Miss Saigon is also cute enough for a first date to get to know someone. The price is also not ridiculously expensive. 4 out of 5 read more

Is it BYOB?
Yes this place is BYOB. I'm not sure why that other person answering gave his opinion on BYOB. He's probably never been to this place. They don't even sell liquor, it's tea and freezes on the menu...not all restaurants meet local/state liquor…
