So pleased!! My husband and I were passing through Joplin and decided to stop and have pho (something light and local). LOVED IT! Joplin is fortunate to have such tasty pho!! read more

Excellent authentic soups, okay service, very good portions for the price. My bun bo hue had the perfect level of spice, half a pig foot, and a congealed blood block that was enormous--authentic and delicious!! I asked for egg noodles instead of vermicelli, simply because I love egg noodles with the broth of bun bo hue, and I also asked for a Vietnamese coffee without the ice. It was all delicious and my admittedly picky substitutions were easily obliged. Would go again if we were in the area (just passing through). Perfect for the cold day we visited! read more

Pho Saigon - Rolls amazing (Hot temperature) - Vietnamese Near Me - Joplin, Missouri

Great place to eat Vietnamese. Clean and well decorated. The food was about as good as I have had in Asian food. We each had a vermicelli dish. One with pork and one with beef. Both were well seasoned and tasty. Both meats were tender and juicy. Service was adequate and friendly, but not incredible. We will be back. read more

The food was great and we were left loving each dish just as much as the last. The price is one of the best values I've ever had for such a great meal. read more

Pho Saigon - Vietnamese Near Me - Joplin, Missouri

I love their pho. I always order mine with chicken and I add every single item that comes on the plate plus a little Hoisen & chili garlic. My friend ordered vegetarian pho w/o tofu. It was really packed with veggies. I wish I'd had a few of those in my bowl! . ... Not that mine wasn't good. It was wonderful! I just really like veggies & not as much chicken. I bet they would be happy to accommodate me next time I'm in. I'll be sure to ask. read more

Love this place. Authentic and lots to choose from! Good service and great location. Gem for sure

I've only been to Pho Saigon once so far as this is their first week in business, but I'm pretty thrilled to have a Vietnamese restaurant in Joplin! I went with a group of friends and we tried a lot of different items on the menu. We checked ahead of time and knew there were no vegetarian options. That ought to change right away, in my opinion, as I think a lot of people who go out of their way for Thai and Vietnamese food are vegetarian, pescetarian, etc...but I won't knock off a star for it either. We all liked our food very much. The noodle dishes looked great to me. I had their six inch mixed banh mi and it was good especially for the price, with really nice crusty-and-chewy baguette. I really enjoyed the traditional spring rolls as well, and their coffee was nothing fancy (not Vietnamese coffee) but it was cheap and strong, so I was pleased. I'm not a pho lover but my friends who ordered it proclaimed it had excellent flavor. Service was okay if a little bit slow (it's table service but there was no checking for refills on our drinks). Again, it was very early in the game and the dining room was very busy. Our server seemed to be doing her best. There was also a considerable line at the register to pay checks on leaving. I'm pretty sure they will work out the kinks with this sort of thing, though! I look forward to returning to Pho Saigon soon. read more

They no longer sell Banh mi. The sausage spring roll is also no longer as good as it used to be.

Boba was fantastic. We got the number 303 and 304 and it was amazing! Leftovers taste even better. The fruit iced teas are to die for! I love this place. You gotta try it out! read more

Pho Saigon - Number 303 - Vietnamese Near Me - Joplin, Missouri

So my son and I sometimes like to have a "Dad Day" where we hang out all day skip school and have fun. Today we went Canoeing and I decided to take him for some pho. Neither of us had ever had it but we both really liked traditional Japanese Ramen and this is supposed to be pretty close. We ordered egg rolls for an appetizer and they were pretty good. They were extremely fresh and the outside was crispy/flaky in a pleasantly suprising way. Now the Pho. We both ordered the pho combo #1. Pho Tai Chin Nam Bo Vien, beef noodle soup with rare and well done flank and meatballs. His was a small and mine large. It was pretty good although ive never had pho so I dont really have a point of refrence. The noodles were cooked perfectly and everything had a light flavor that was good but not overpowering. Personally I like bolder flavors but this was nice. I'll probably come back and try something different. My son liked it as well. 2 entrees 2 drinks and an appetizer $24.50 read more

We've eaten here several times. The food is usually good but the other day we went & the soup tasted like boiled water & the died red punk hair lady was mad at another girl that works there cause she didn't do her list of stocking napkins and spoons and other shift obligations. Then she talked of her bad hygiene. Coming to work stinking. Well let's just say we are done. We will just have to find another place. read more

Passing through Joplin suprised to find such an authentic and delicious Vietnamese option. It's a hole in the wall but clean and staff super friendly. Had the huge bowl of beef Pho and the Vermicelli and Shrimp was outstanding!! Marinated charbroiled shrimp with fresh veg! read more

So glad they are on the South side of town! We try to get something different every time we go. The pho is fabulous and the spring rolls are my go-to anytime my friends and I get together for dinner or lunch. You will not be disappointed. read more

We get the beef pho and love it. The prices are awesome as well! Come try this place!!

Well first, the service was mediocre. Wasn't greeted with a smile. Checked on us once. And again no smile or even a "you're welcome" when thanked. We were the only diners there. She must've been the owner. Do not order the pork with vermicelli noodles or the rice dish because the pork was extra thinly sliced and flavors were not good. Both dishes should've came with fish sauce but only gave us one. It's like they were being stingy with the fish sauce. My child didn't even eat her pork because she didn't like it. The pho was bland. We are Vietnamese and the food was just not good at all so it was a disappointment. The egg rolls were ok, again gave us about 2 tablespoons of fish sauce with that. Their menu is quite small for a viet restaurant. Being the only Vietnamese restaurant in Joplin, I feel sorry for the people who actually think it's good. You all obviously have never had REAL, flavorful, and fresh Vietnamese food before. What they serve as viet food in this small town is actually embarrassing. Next time, drive to Springfield if you crave Vietnamese. Food there is ok but better than what I had here. Or go to Tulsa or KC if you don't want to drive more than 3 hours. But even better, go to St. Louis or OKC. Make a visit if you are in the area. They have authentic food there. read more

Got an order of fried egg rolls (just OK) and an order of Hue Style Beef Noodle Soup. Everything was quite good except the "meatballs". The meatballs were some processed meat paste. It they actually spent a little more and actually make the meatballs it would be so much better. read more

Very good food! Had the shrimp spring rolls and beef Pho!! Spring rolls were fresh and delicious. The dip for them was a yummy peanut sauce! The pho was also fresh and filling for the small serving! read more

Haven't been to this place in a while but ASAP we will be. Our #1 place to go for egg rolls & PHO soup. Mmmm boy!

Joplin really needed a great place for Pho Soup, and here is the place!! Loved it! Pho Soup was excellent as were the spring and egg rolls! We will be back! read more

This is our family favorite. Start with the sausage spring rolls and get a large 202 if you want the perfect bowl of pho. But you can explore this menu and find lots of great stuff! read more

Wow! Good food in the neighborhood! If you like Magic Noodle or Kinnaree this eatery may be a pleasant addition to that pallet. Vietnamese menu that has a little less heat and more subtle flavorings unless you specify otherwise. Primarily vegit offerings with beef, pork or chicken proteins to add. Rice, noodles and soup style dishes. It is not Chinese thankfully, just a tasty variation on Indonesian lunch and dinner staple food. Priced as you would expect fresh, authentically, cooked-as-ordered menu items to be. Friendly, clean family vibe. Hope Joplin will support this endeavor. I'd rate a five but am leaving room for another, even better visit! read more

Great variation of choices with great prices. The food was delicious and served in a timely manner. The only down side to this restaurant is the location (seems like the restaurant is closed when one drives by). If you want some delicious and authentic vietnamese cuisine, please stop by! read more

Great Pho, I had the lunch shrimp Pho, service was very friendly. The place was very busy for lunch as it should be the product they put out is excellent! read more

Walking in the restaurant. It smelled bad. Smell was like a dirty diaper. Then the wait staff wanted the order almost immediately. Very hurried. When food arrived the little child of owner /wait staff come to the table. She was only 3 yrs of age. Stayed and played with little figures at our table. She was not at fault. But started caughing. Caughing in my food on the table. And caughing in our faces. I know this child is too young to realize. It's the owners fault. My husband had pho soup. I had chicken fried rice. His was good. Mine...well after the. Smell and caughing. I lost my appetite. Not a good experience. We will not go back. read more

So I am driving down to get my daughter a subway sandwich and what do I see on a snowy day? Pho Saigon! Yes Joplinites, there is Pho in Joplin. And get this Banh Mi!!! Do I sound excited? Well thats because I am. And for very good reason. The Banh Mi is delicious and on a FRESH and crunchy (not hard) french roll. The vietnamese butter and pate compliment those pickled carrots and daikons. The roasted pork and ham? Forget about it!!!! Its there and lovely. Man how I kissed those finely cut cucumbers and cilantro. All of these ingredients placed together between this amazing french roll is nothing shirt of FOOD PORN. I have been told I can be a food snob. Nah...i just KNOW what is good and these sandwiches (i am sad to call them sandwiches because they are truly so much more). Feeling hungry and want a REAL tasty and fresh sandwich that is not one of those 6 inch or 12 inch sandwich places? Why get the same ol when you can have fantastic for $3.?! Yes thats right! Three bucks. If u want the plain sandwich next door, have at it but just know someone DID tell you so... read more

I love this place because of the great service and awesome authentic food. I always get the spring or avocado spring rolls to start and the tofu vegetable pho. Vegan, pescatarian and vegetarian options and everything served fresh. read more

This is a Joplin jem. The quality is great, and it's one of the best places to get the most for your money. The portions are so generous for the price. I usually go for the vermicelli bowl or just pho with beef flank. I would recommend trying the spring rolls and the egg rolls. read more

Great service BUT the pho is watery, I'd rather have the pho at the mall. The bahn mi sandwiches are good.

I wouldn't call myself a "foodie" but I am a food enthusiast and enjoy good food. I've had a lot of pho in my years from cities such as Dallas, Kansas City and Los Angeles. Additionally, I've had Pho from the mother land itself, Vietnam, and my own Mom's homemade Pho (we all know nothing beats homemade pho). The slogan at Pho Saigon says it all in the name, "It's Pho-King good" and is just as good as my mom's pho. read more

We were a little nervous as the restaurant didn't have many people in it on a Thursday night but the Pho was great! We will be back!

This is my favorite place in town! I am a high school student so money is sometimes an issue, but the prices at this place cannot be beat for the amount of food you get and it is my go to restaurant in town. The pho is amazing and you will not be disappointed. The staff is very friendly and always serve your food with a smile. My only complaint about the restaurant is it seems a little bit dirty. I know they are moving to a new location so hopefully that will be fixed when they move. The only reason I did not give Pho Saigon a five star review was because of the cleanliness, the food is to die for. I think it would be better for business if they cleaned more. Definitely order your food to-go. read more

My wife and I use to really enjoy eating here when we had the chance. The ambience has never been great but the food was great and the restaurant was clean. We just ate there and won't be back till they clean up. We had a cockroach crawl across our table and as we left their was a cockroach on the wall behind the cashier/next to the entry to the kitchen. I can look past service issues and mistakes, but unsanitary/dirty conditions are never acceptable. read more

The place looked closed when we parked in the parking lot. I almost assumed someone had mistakenly left the neon "open" sign on as they left for Christmas vacation. Fortunately, Pho Saigon was open and we were able to enjoy some hot Vietnamese soup on this cold winter's day. The broth was decent, though I missed the aromatic flavors of basil I've grown accustomed to being served along with the bean sprouts and jalapeños. Without my favorite flavor, I couldn't give a higher rating. Those that don't use basil in their pho would likely rate the pho and this establishment a four or a five. The eggrolls were delicious, as well as the dipping sauce. Service was also pretty good. This is definitely a place Joplin should keep alive. read more

This is real pho, in Joplin! The service is great! The lady taking our order was entertaining, and great with my kids. Just an all around fun and tasty place to eat. read more

This is the best Vietnamese food I've had. My husband and I both had vegenation pho. It was delicious. They had great options, too.

I stopped by at random not knowing anything about Pho Saigon. I ordered the egg rolls and the Pho Chin (well-done eye of round steak). The egg rolls were very good. However the pho was fantastic! Probably the best broth I've ever had. Can't wait to go back. read more

If you wanna eat Vietnamese food, this is the place...try Pho noodle soup, shaken beef is my fav...
