Old Saigon Vietnamese Bistro is located in the beautiful and peaceful upscale neighborhood of Steiner Ranch. I've been there a few times for both lunch and dinner with friends and family, and it is well worth the price. The restaurant is cozy, and the service is excellent. I've tried the steak and brisket pho as well as the shaken beef wok, and both were outstanding. Next time, I plan to try the duck curry. Don't let the prices stop you--it's a great place for high-quality food and a pleasant dining experience. read more

Amazing selection of pho. Ambiance was nice, clean, not overwhelmingly decorated. Love the aquarium! They have buy one get one drink or choose 20% off the meal deal. Parking space is plenty. I love the calamari and the lobster roll, so refreshing! The pho was a big serving! My friend got artichoke and I got beef and it was delish! Service was great! We had to go boxes and they do it for you too. Pho craving satisfied! My Vietnamese friend is very picky so I always trust her recs! The crème brûlée on spoon was a very sweet touch! read more

Decent Vietnamese food but not traditional but worth a try. We order banh mi with grilled pork with spring roll. The banh mi doesn't come with traditional mayo or pickled veggies, instead it comes with pan fried peppers and onions. It's kinda more like a Philly cheesesteak minus the cheese. The best part of the meal was the fries! The spring roll was really good the meat had a Smokey flavor to it. I highly recommend the spring roll. We also ordered a brisket pho the broth is so good, noodles a bit hard and not so fresh. Overall good but giving me lemons instead of limes with my pho should be a crime. The service was quick and friendly. And the ambiance is filled with a ridiculous amount of alcohol! read more

I had high hopes for Old Saigon Bistro. I went out of my way to drive into this Steiner Ranch establishment. Unfortunately, the food was not worth the trip. First off, this establishment is expensive. $14 for egg rolls is too much. The Pho soup was average. The steak was a low-grade cut and not very appetizing. $50 for eggrolls, Pho, a beer and tip is too steep for me. read more

I recently tried Old Saigon Vietnamese Bistro on a beautiful, chilly morning and went there for lunch with a friend. They offer a lunch menu that includes one spring roll and a choice of one main course for $18. While I found it a bit pricey, the food was delicious and well prepared. We ordered the veggie spring roll and veg pho, both of which were flavorful and satisfying. I was especially happy to see that they have many good vegetarian options, which is not always easy to find. Given that there are limited good dining options within Steiner, this place is very convenient. A nice touch at the end of the meal was their complimentary spoon brûlée, which was a pleasant surprise and a great way to finish lunch. Old Saigon Vietnamese Bistro is a lovely spot if you're craving comforting, flavorful Vietnamese food. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, making it a great place for both a relaxed meal and a casual outing with family. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back to try more dishes next time. read more

Service was great. Food was okay, nothing special. Prices seemed a little high for the quality.

5 stars for the Pho alone. The Pho was flavorful and savory. It was very much like the ones we had in Vietnam. The portion is massive with plenty of noodles and beef. The chicken curry was also tasty. Service was very friendly. read more

I love this place because the staff is so friendly. Everyone greeted us when we walked in and the hostess seemed interested in asking about our day. For dinner we had their fried egg rolls and the shaken beef, which seems to be one of their specialties. It was very flavorful and delicious! Then on the way out we got a nice little bottle of wine as a gift for being new customers! We definitely will come back when we're in the area. read more

Old Saigon Vietnamese Bistro - Veggie pho - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Really good Vietnamese food. Their rare beef pho had amazing broth and good noodles. We also really enjoyed the beef curry which had a good amount of meat, veggies, and some good rice. I especially liked that it had a curry taste but wasn't spicy at all. Agree with other reviews that the bahn mi was more like a Philly cheese steak but the fries were good. The fried rice was ok, but nothing to write home about. We tried the combination shrimp and chicken. Both meats were good. The crème brûlée was confusing. We got a sample on a spoon and tried the real thing which was more spoon samples with some mint. Tasty but not what we were expecting. Vietnamese iced coffee had some good taste, I just wish there was more of it. The red Thai tea was on the sweet side. The restaurant is nice and quiet and service was quick. We'll be back to try more of the menu and to get more pho and curry. All in all a must try. read more

Amazing! Family owned operated, authentic! I've been to Vietnam, and I frequent Vietnamese restaurants in the states often - this hits the bar. Get the grandmas chili oil and add it to anything, it's hot but the flavor is incredible. read more

There's not many Pho places close to Steiner Ranch so it's nice to have one right in our neighborhood. The food, service, and decor is top notch. Prices are somewhat higher than most pho places, but these also tend to be nondescript or drab places. Old Saigon looks clean and new with a bar, plants, and fish tank. read more

Probably the best Vietnamese food we've ever had! My wife and I went in for dinner tonight and were incredibly impressed with both the atmosphere and the food. We got shrimp spring rolls for an appetizer and they were delicious! For our meals, my wife ordered the shrimp vermicelli and I ordered the shaken chicken wok. From the moment the food hit our mouths, we were in heaven! The sauce on the shaken chicken wok was smokey with a slight sweet taste. My wife mentioned this is probably the best vermicelli she's ever had even outside of New York City. Afterwards, we were offered their crème brûlée. To say it instantly melted in our mouths would be an understatement. It was perfectly cooked with a slight crunchy glaze. The atmosphere inside was calming and beautiful. Soft, soothing music accompanied the stunning visuals of each of the hand, painted murals. Don't forget to check out the outside koi pond! I simply cannot express how amazing Old Saigon is! Both Liem and Jen, along with their children Chrissy and Alex, and staff have done an incredible job with this new edition to the Steiner food community! read more

Great vibe with comfy booths. Last night I shared the Beef Lemongrass (plenty for two). Tonight I had the Duck Curry. Not very spicy with red peppers and delicious grilled pineapple! Both nights the meal ended with a surprise taste of complimentary Crème Brûlée. Perfect restaurant for a family gathering or birthday dinner! read more

Amazing food and service! This is #1 on my list of Asian cuisine here in Austin! I am from Seattle and it's been hard finding a really great vietnamese restaurant out here. The flavors exceeded our expectations. The Pho reminded me of back home x10. Love this restaurant, great service and atmosphere. We will return! Highly recommend!! read more

Food at Old Saigon was so fresh and delicious! We ordered delivery and were so impressed with the pho, papaya salad, spring rolls, everything. This will be a regular for us. Highly recommend. read more

Family owned and they definitely thought of everything from ambiance to fresh flavorful food! Loved the plants, fish tank and calm background music. Easy place for conversation, and the staff is super friendly and attentive. They went out of their way for our peanut allergy and surprised us with a taste of their creme brûlée. Ordered the crab spring rolls, Shaken Beef and specialty Pho. All excellent and had plenty extra to take home! Will definitely come back and look forward to trying more of their dishes! A true gem nestled in the middle of Steiner Ranch neighborhood. read more

We love this place--high quality food--their chicken curry is amazing! Their spring rolls are made with such fresh ingredients. Everything we have had is really good. Definitely worth a try if you are in the neighborhood! read more

Our first experience with this restaurant goes back to their location in Houston. Unfortunately for us they relocated to Austin. The food was always so good that the drive didn't matter when we found out their new restaurant opened. After trying restaurant after restaurant we were always left missing their recipes. It's safe to say that our favorite place somehow found a way to become even better. Their food and our service will always be worth the drive. read more

The Beef Rib Pho was superb. If you are going to get the Pho, definitely recommend the Beef Rib Pho Great selection and the presentation of the food was excellent. Family was very happy with the food. The ambience and decor was great - so different than any Vietnamese restaurant in Austin. They put a lot of time with the layout and decor. Nice restaurant to have dinner with the family or on a date. read more

Literally the best waitress/server we have ever had. This family-run restaurant has clean food, adheres to strict allergen practices (I am Celiac and my partner has a soy allergy), are knowledgeable, respectful, have a great sense of humor, are traditionally dressed, and delightful to engage with. They even let us stay late to eat on their lovely porch filled with beautiful plants, and brought water to my dog. We are so grateful for the welcoming, delicious experience they provided us even though we showed up late (9:30pm like a-holes). The shrimp were impeccable! Great phò and papaya salad as well. They even gifted us a surprise dessert at the end of our meal... gluten free créme brûlée spoons read more

Delicious food, well prepared and presented. The SHAKEN BEEF - BÒ LÚC LẮC is mouth-watering. The meat, with its perfectly seasoned flavors, was cooked to perfection. My wife enjoyed her WELLDONE BRISKET PHO - PHỞ CHÍN. Think, brisket goes international. An interesting and flavorful combination, served with rice noodles and herbs in a bowl of hearty broth. Various rices are available for sides. The house red was very drinkable. A little pricey but well worth it. Highly recommend. read more

Amazing quality. The best staff. Our family's new favorite spot! Our kiddos cleaned their plates. LOVE!

The food and service are outstanding! The location is great for Steiner Ranch and enriches the diversity of restaurants in the local area. The ambiance is comfortable. read more

The pho taste good. Noodles seems not made in restaurant but ordered from some vendors. No too much surprise. The kids meal i order a chicken rice for my son, the chicken is over cooked. Very hard to chew not tender. The biggest concern is the price. The house special is charged by 25.99 bf taxes. No ideas how inflation can increase a bowl of noodles to 25 bucks. Not worthy It. read more

Just simply wonderful! We have eaten here a few times (usually dinner but lunch once) and each time our food has been fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere (you'd never know the space was once the home of Lakeside Pizza....they did a beautiful job on the renovation) and service are lovely and friendly too. It is obvious they are family-run and consistently use fresh ingredients. Note this is NOT the all too-typical "dime a dozen" mediocre pho lunch joint in a strip center....this is the real deal and very much worth the price. Equally suited for casual meals or date nights. Enjoy! read more

Beautiful setting, friendly family staff & wonderful food! We are so glad we stopped in and we will return.

Great food! We had lunch here today. Really delicious and good portions. Family owned restaurant with great service by people who take pride in what they do. read more

Beef is high quality! I typically never get beef from vietnamese restaurants because their beef is poor quality, but this restaurant blew my expectations. Highly recommend the shaken beef or beef banh mi. Top vietnamese restaurants in Austin. Worth the price premium. Staff is welcoming and friendly read more

Old Saigon just tossed Steiner Ranch the salad it didn't know it needed. I came in skeptical, left fully handled. The pho was rich, the ramen was smooth, and the banh mi hit with just the right lube of flavor. Every noodle was perfectly moist, and the variety on the menu made for a truly happy ending. Already planning my next visit -- might even bring a second hand. read more

WE love Old Saigon Vietnamese Bistro in Steiner Ranch. The food is authentic and tasty and the service is warm and friendly. They have done a great job with a cozy and warm atmosphere as well. We will go back often and also order out! read more

Assuming my first visit someone messed up the broth because today it was much better. Service is still weird but attentive. And the ending complimentary spoon brûlée is a nice touch but tastes like butane fuel, prices are still ridiculous and questionable if it's worth it, but felt I should update my review because the food was really good today. read more

So happy some more exotic cuisine is making its way to Steiner! My husband and I had delicious pho here. Prices were super reasonable considering we were each able to make an entirely other meal out of each of our servings. Excellent service as well. The outdoor space looks lovely too. Excited to try other items on the menu. read more
