    L3. H Tiu B Kho

    Ultimately was a bit disappointed with what I got here. Pricing was fine for the amount of food we got. Started with spring rolls, which were good. Nice size, standard ingredients. I got the bo kho and I'm not sure why but really didn't enjoy the flavoring or the thickness of the broth. The noodles also were just fine. Would not order this dish again. We also got the hu tieu ap chao, which was a new experience for me that I enjoyed much more. The noodles are essentially lightly fried in a block of them, so you pull them apart and crunch on them.The seafood that came with this were meh, the noodles were really my favorite part of the dish.

    This was by far the best find on our roadtrip! Excellent, good quality pho, and the most flavorful and creative summer rolls with boiled eggs and tasty pork, and fresh vegetables, and herbs, perfectly rolled and fresh, and excellent crispy banh xeo crepe. What's not to love? Very friendly service and a nice interior. We will definitely be back!

    Very busy at 6:30 pm. Open only until 8. The pho broth here is among the best in the area. Rolls are huge! Staff is very courteous.

    Bun bo hue & seafood soup. Both were good

    Wow finally found an amazing Vietnamese place in the area. This restaurant has one of the best banh mi I have had with very fresh and well toasted bread, flavorful marinated lemongrass pork and delicious toppings. I wil definitely be back just for the banh mi. We also tried the bun bo hue which was very good and no too salty but didn't have a lot of good meat in it , was hoping for more of a beef variety like in the pho dishes. We also tried the seafood soup which surprisingly had good flavor and a ton of seafood meat and variety, worth trying at least once but doesn't have the depth flavor that pho or bun bo hue would have. We were very happy with our dishes and the service was great overall, they were quick to bring out the food and very friendly , it looks like a family owned restaurant. They close early on some days so plan ahead. The decorations and the ambiance of the restaurant are good , I enjoyed dinning in. I highly recommend this place and hope to try other items on their menu.

    Great soup! Hit the spot in my lunch break! I ordered the pho with different types of beef in it (loved the tendon), as well as the spring rolls.

    This is definitely the pho spot cause let me tell you! Nice and clean space with decent amount of seating as well. Everyone is so nice and it's a calm environment. The butter fried chicken was cooked perfectly and that seafood pho was off the charts! 10/10 will be back again. My server was nice even though he was young he was patient and put me on to the butter fried chicken.

    Disappointed ordered the V3 pork with egg rolls. We used to get 2 thinner pork chops and 2 egg rolls . It's now down to one egg roll , small sliced pork pieces. More rice vermicelli noodles than anything else and the price is much higher. Still good quality but far less to offer in the meal. I guess it is a sign of the times. Just sad.

    Do they have a gluten free menu? My wife has to worry about that. Not really fair to take her to a place she can't eat.

    Pho is rice noodle so it's gluten free.

    Soooo....this is a local favorite and I have been meaning to try Little Saigon for years. I have…read moreheard it is the best pho and nothing but positive things. I was very disappointed with my visit. It almost hurts to write this review. I tend not to judge restaurants with outdated decor or scuffed walls but I want to feel like I the tables and chairs are clean. I didn't feel like our table was clean and the spoons for use in the middle of the table were sticky and stick together. The spring rolls and pho we got didn't live up to the hype I have heard for years. The staff was nice but you needed to flag someone down for help or even walk to the front when you needed something. I don't think I would visit here again.

    Located on Paxton in Harrisburg, Little Saigon is more than just a place to grab a meal--it's a…read morebeloved staple for the local Vietnamese community and anyone who appreciates genuine Vietnamese cuisine. Once we stepped inside I noticed the warm, inviting atmosphere, reminiscent of family-run eateries - and this place is a locally owned business, with the owner working every day it's open + he knows my mother and I by name/face even after long periods of us gone! The menu is a celebration of traditional Vietnamese flavors, made from scratch and using fresh, high-quality ingredients. The restaurant's pho is a perfect example: the broth is simmered for hours, yielding a rich, savory base that bursts with layers of flavor, complemented by fresh herbs, crisp bean sprouts, and tender slices of beef. As is done in Vietnamese cooking, the meat is served raw so that it can cook in the steamed broth that is served... I would disregard any negativity about this in other reviews because that is literally how Vietnamese food is eaten and a hater is just ignorant of our culture. My family is Vietnamese, and we enjoy coming here for authentic and traditional Vietnamese cuisine. For many Vietnamese-Americans in Harrisburg, this restaurant is a cultural anchor, with the Asian grocery store attached to the restaurant as well and a hair cut salon across the parking lot. A true gem of a restaurant, def worth visiting!
