    Saigon Palace Special Pho - Pho Dac Biet
    Rhea C.

    I was craving for pho and this is the nearest one so, I decided to give them a try. The wait was long and it was just one lady working. Poor thing. The food was good; no other complaints besides waiting.

    Bahn mi

    Tried Pho Saigon for the first time and everything was yummy! We had takeout. The Bahn mi was delicious and the scallion pancakes were so flavorful. I can't wait to go back and try more things.

    The owner was very sweet. The smoothies were made with real fruit and the food was delicious!

    Saigon Palace Special Pho - Pho Dac Biet
    Jessica K.

    I have mixed reviews about this restaurant. Although the food is good and service seems to be decent, the inconsistency in the arrival of food is too big to ignore. I first noticed this even before I ordered with a table across the room. 2/3 customers were deep into their meals when the final order finally came for the third at least 10 minutes after. My second notice of this was for my own table. My partner got his pho and I had to wait another 15 for mine and another 5 after that for my Bahn mi. Before I got my meal, two other customers who ordered and sat down after me, at separate tables got their orders within minutes of ordering. I would understand if the bahn mi took longer to make but at the minimum, I would have preferred if both pho dishes arrived at the same time. In total, I waited 35 minutes for my dish while other tables waited less than 10. Now on to the food: if you're going to order anything from here, have it be the pork bahn mi. It is absolutely delicious and has the most flavorful pork. Any other pork dish from here would probably be amazing too. The pho is not bad, with good soup flavor. 24 is the classic special but if you're not feeling the entire meat combo, any of the other options may suit you. I opted for 29 which has the rare steak and soft tendon. The steak doesn't come rare, probably not a fan favorite look in a small town but still tender and I take the meat out to stop it from over cooking. The tendon is really soft and melts in your mouth. I thought the portion of meat was perfect for the amount of noodles provided. I would probably come back and do takeout for the bahn mi but not dine in again.

    "Lemongrass" chicken w no lemongrass or flavor--$16.50
    D W.

    Honestly, if I could give negative stars, I would. The quality of this place has declined in recent years. This happened after the switch over in management more so. I have referred many people here for the lemongrass chicken dish. I haven't had in a while because the prices went up dramatically and the quality is inconsistent. I like supporting "mom and pop" restaurants and was willing to deal with the inconsistency and the price increase ($13 to $16) because generally the food tasted good. When I say inconsistent, I mean, sometimes it came with vegetables, sometimes it didn't. Sometimes the meat was in a separate box, sometimes it wasn't. Sometimes there were cucumbers, radish and carrots. Sometimes peppers. Sometimes it come with sauces. Sometimes not. Sometimes there was a decent amount of food. Sometimes it wasn't. The point I'm saying is it was very inconsistent. So today, I go and order lemongrass chicken. The woman on the phone sounded as if she didn't know the dish. But finally said, "Oh, yes lemongrass chicken." That should have been my tip off. But I hadn't had in a while and wanted something different. I go to eat and the chicken is parboiled with absolutely no flavor. I have used soy sauce to down some of it. At $16.50 and about 2 healthy handfuls of chicken and peppers (this time), it's a permanent no for me. No lemongrass in sight. Bland. And disgusting frankly. I also asked for chopsticks. Those weren't included. I'm including a picture so you can see. Perhaps there are some pictures on here of how it used to look, but clearly it doesn't look good. Also, I went in and saw a few people eating in the restaurant today. I thought, "Ok, well maybe it's better." Either they were duped like me, desperate, or have no taste buds. Lesson learned. Too bad because Lynchburg, in my opinion, really struggles for decent non-American food.

    This is authentic Vietnamese food. the people are amazing to talk with but most importantly the food is insane! definitely try the spring rolls then out on the magic 4 sauces. Just make sure to sit in the middle tables not the booths. definitely recommend -- you're taste buds will not regret it.

    Banh mi sandwich gone wrong due to wrapping
    E C.

    Came back to try this place again and only regretted it. Stopped in for lunch break but decided to take to go. Ordered the Banh mi sandwich. When I pulled it out of the bag, half the sandwich immediately fell out and spilled all over the floor. The ends of the sandwich were NOT wrapped like they do at Subway sandwiches. What a complete waste, because they were too cheap to use enough paper to fully wrap the sandwich. Too many disappointing experiences here. Let's not even get started with the terrible customer service.

    Steak Thinly Sliced Eye Round Steak & Soft Tendon Pho
    Jesse P.

    I love asian food of all kinds and this place delivered some serious flavor today. I had the rare steak and soft tendon pho today and it was amazing. The steak was thinly sliced and cooked perfectly and the soft tendon had so much flavor. The broth was seasoned great and with a little sriracha it opened up my sinuses really well. I also had an order of the fresh summer rolls and they are some of my favorite I've had. Fresh is the proper word for them. They'd make the Prince of Bel-Air proud. The staff was very friendly and personable even with a little bit of a language difference. The atmosphere was very laid back and there appeared to be a couple of regular customers in there too. I didn't try the bubble tea, but next time I go you can guarantee I'll be trying it to give me something sweet to contrast with my pho. Their portion sizes are nice as well. If you're in Lynchburg and you want legit Pho, you gotta check this place out. After typing all this out, I kinda wanna go back for seconds already... who's in with me??

    Small #28, steak and flank
    Charlene C.

    Arrived around 1:30 p.m. on a Sunday and there were still plenty of seats available. One of the staff seated us immediately. Ordered a small #28 pho, which comes with "rare" steak and flank. The pho had great flavor, with a generous amount of scallions and served with plenty of fresh bean sprouts and basil. It would have been nice if the meat was actually served rare. Maybe I'll just have to ask for it next time. The small size cost $8.50 and was filling enough for me. Service was a little bit slow. The waitress didn't notice us while we were waiting for her to take our order. She was apologetic and friendly. Don't forget to try one of the complimentary yummy guava hard candies after you pay for your order at the cashier.

It's Pho Time is a local, family restaurant, located in a strip mall of Williamson Road in Roanoke, Virginia. I found out that in Vietnam, pho is enjoyed at any time of day and serves as a common ground for people from all walks of life. Thus, the reason for its name: "It's Pho Time." When I arrived to this small, but clean and very simple decorated restaurant I saw a sign: "PLEASE SEAT YOURSELF." As soon as I sat down, who seemed to be the owner of the restaurant and gave me a warm welcome with a big and friendly smile. He brought a form with him and explained how here one ordered by checking the items on the form, taking it to the counter and handing it in, and waiting at your table to be served when ready. Then he answered any questions that I had about the items on the menu, and asked what I wanted to drink. I asked him for a Mango Smoothie with Boba Pearls. To my surprise they had it on the menu and this drink had become a favorite of mine since the first time I had it in another Asian restaurant called Wok N Roll Kitchen located in Downtown Roanoke. Filling out the menu / order form, I ordered Two Pork Spring Rolls as appetizer and a Glazed Pork Dish as the main course. Once I handed the form to the owner, he called out the items and family members working in the kitchen took care of preparing it and bringing it to my table when ready. The Pork Spring Rolls were amazing. I enjoyed the texture of the thin wrap, the flavory pieces of pork they had inside, together with the fresh and crispy veggies. This was served on a plate with a peanut base sauce. My main course was also very appetizing. It was a bowl full of white rice and Glazed Pork with lettuce, cucumbers, pickled carrots, dalkon, the house sauce, and an over medium fried egg. During my time there many people came in and ordered takeouts and others who seemed like repeat customers stayed and enjoyed their meal there. At the end I threw the the plastic bowl in the trash and put the tray on a pile of trays there. Then I went to the counter to pay and say my goodbye, thanking the owners and his entire family for such a wonderful meal and dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant for its amazing food and extraordinary service, and plan to give them a visit again when I feel that ... "It's Pho Time."

    Located at Market Square Center, a strip-mall on Orange Ave in Roanoke Virginia, this Asian…read morefamily-owned Vietnamese restaurant, has been in business since August 2011. I'm not an expert in Vietnamese Cuisine, nor do I profess to be, but I can tell when I eat good food and I have discovered it in fancy restaurants as well as in many hole in the wall ones. Today I decided to get off the road most traveled, to end up in this Asian family-owned Vietnamese Cuisine restaurant. As I arrived I immediately saw its simple but very effective white sign with large black print with the restaurant's name and telephone number. Inside, the place was very clean starting from its large front window and glass door. Decorated very simple with plants, family items saved throughout the years, and artworks hanging from the walls, its shinny hardwood floor and simple lamps hanging from the ceiling, join with the nice looking wooden furniture to create the right amount of elegance and at the same time relaxed environment. I received a warm welcome and genuine greeting from a Vietnamese gentleman who had me take a seat and handed me the menu of the restaurant. To drink I ordered the Vietnamese Iced Coffee. It was so rich and delicious with its condensed milk. For appetizer I ordered the Pork Spring Rolls served with a Peanut Dipping. For a better idea of how good they were, I invite you to view my photographs accompanying this review, because a picture is worth a thousand words. As my main course I ordered the Stir Fry Noodles with Grilled Pork and Shrimps. It came out in a square, light green plate. And it both looked and tasted so good that I immediately identified with the best of Vietnamese Cuisine. In conclusion I highly recommend this Asian family-owned Vietnamese Cuisine restaurant for its amazing food, relaxed environment, wonderful customer service, and extraordinary dining experience.
