    Saigon Wings
    Fred W.

    I had a chance to try the Saigon Pho and beef Pho. I was disappointed in the flavor. It was a sweet tasting broth. The bean sprouts, basil, and other accompaniments were fresh. If you like sweet pho, then this will work for you. The Saigon wings were amazing. The service was ok but as the place got busier it was a bit lackluster. The ambiance is not anything special or unusual. The music volume is just right.

    Crab and cream cheese wontons! All homemade and delicious!

    This was one of the best restaurants in downtown Olympia! The food was delicious and the staff was so kind! Beautiful music playing while you eat! So clean and inviting too! You have to try it out!!

    A perfect cold-December-night stop. The fresh, comforting food hit exactly right. The red curry was generous and deeply satisfying--so much so that it easily became tomorrow's lunch. Everything arrived piping hot, just as it should. The staff were quick, friendly, and attentive, keeping our water filled without missing a beat. Warm food, warm service, and a cozy kind of satisfaction that lingers after you leave.

    Panang Curry
    Mary J.

    A very simple restaurant with pretty decor and very yummy and well-priced food. My panang curry was almost shockingly generous: a big bowl full of fresh veggies and tofu and lots of thick, creamy, luscious, spicy coconut sauce for under $20.

    The service was absolutely wonderful. Friendly staff, quick service and amazing food! The fresh spring rolls paired with the peanut sauce were so good. This restaurant was very clean and welcoming.

    Pho and cashew veggie stir fry

    Pros: good food, reasonable price, large dining room with many seats and tables, friendly staff. Cons: street parking can be tricky

    Chicken Pho with veggies
    Nat C.

    Fantastic! I got the chicken pho with added veggies. Hubs got the Saigon Pho (not pictured). And we got the spring rolls. Everything is fragrant, tasty, perfect. Inspired my dear man to wax poetic about his time in Vietnam. He says and I agree, best pho in Olympia Staff were so sweet, friendly, prompt, attentive. We will be back with friends and family!

    Lobby looks pleasant

    I found myself in Olympia with a grumbly tummy. I happened upon Saigon Rendezvous by chance, with a parking spot right in front, so I took that as a sign to satiate my hungry stomach and try a new Thai place. I'm so glad I did. The outside certainly presented itself with a "dive-y" feeling, but I kind of like dives. I find they may not look pretty, but they usually have great food. Upon entry, the place was clean, roomy and plenty of available seating. The bathroom was clean and I always think that is a good sign! The seats, however, were definitely NOT curvy, hippy, big butt girl friendly! In fact, they were down right uncomfortable. So, be forewarned!! IF you have curves, the seats are not friendly. I ended up sitting very forward in the metal chair, because my hips just could not tolerate the pain. Besides that one negative, the rest of the review is positive. Because, the food was delish! I settled on my usual shrimp fresh rolls with peanut sauce and a bowl of chicken pho. The rolls were stuffed with yummy, crispy lettuce, carrots, sprouts, shrimp, cilantro, accompanied by a delicious peanut dipping sauce. Both were really tasty. The pho broth was sublime. So flavorful. The chicken in the soup was plentiful and the bean sprouts, lime and Thai basil were absolutely fresh. This meal made my grumbly tummy happy. The portions were substantial and enough for me to take half home to enjoy for my dinner! Yes! This is definitely a "dive" I plan on coming back to when I find myself in Olympia. The waiter was sweet and attentive. He was also the chef. I am assuming he was the owner as well. Two thumbs up for Saigon Rendezvous!

    Chicken wings
    Aliza B.

    Quiet and cute aesthetic inside. Server was so kind and didn't let us down with a food rec! We tried the chicken wings, garlic honey chicken, and pineapple fried rice (can't forget Thai Tea). Nothing disappointed and left with to-go box because portions were fair sized. I will go back, have to have the wings again!

    Cute little place and the food was very good! The service was good. We will be back to eat here again!

    Great service from the moment we arrived. I'm a vegetarian and the server knew right off hand what…read moresauces have fish stock. Something so important when you are catering to vegans. It's listed right on the menu that you can get any dish vegan, vegetarian, or gluten-free. My boyfriend had the Thai fried rice with shrimp and he said it was the best he's had. You can get a thai ice tea with coconut milk. That's not always the case at other Thai restaurants. I wish this place was closer to where we lived. I would be in here weekly! Everything was super fresh. 5 stars plus!

    My family and I (my wife, daughter, and 3-year-old grandson) came here for an early dinner on July…read more3, 2026. Like many active toddlers, my grandson briefly stood on a chair and was jumping up and down. The owner approached us and, in what we felt was a very curt manner, asked that he stop. We immediately corrected him, and he complied without any issue. Unfortunately, what made the rest of our dining experience uncomfortable was that the owner appeared to keep watching my grandson throughout the entire meal. We understand the importance of safety and maintaining a pleasant environment for all guests, but once the situation had been addressed and resolved, the continued attention made us feel as though we were being monitored for the remainder of our visit. As for the food, we found the quality to be disappointing, and the portions were quite small for the price. We've dined at several comparable--and even higher-end--Thai restaurants where both the quality and portion sizes offered much better value. At the end of our meal, we asked for an extra takeout container for our leftovers. The owner initially handed us one but then took both the container and the bag back, refusing our request. We found this confusing and unnecessary. Overall, we left feeling rushed, uncomfortable, and unwelcome rather than able to relax and enjoy a family dinner. Unfortunately, the combination of the service, the food, and the overall experience means we won't be returning.
