Great house special. Won't get the large again though. That thing was huge! Looking forward to checking out more of the very thick menu. read more

Pho Saigon - Vietnamese Near Me - Pickering, Ontario

Come here whenever were in the mood for some Pho and not willing to travel far. We always get their Beef and Meatball Noodle Soup. I can understand other reviewers that say their broth lacks flavour. Ive been to other Pho restaurants that have much tastier broth. But it's not that big of a deal for me so I know that going in. Aside from that, the food is very good. We highly recommend the spring rolls. read more

Pho Saigon - Vietnamese Near Me - Pickering, Ontario

See all

Ordered for takeout. I had the pork fresh rolls as an app, rare beef pho for main (M) with Tom Yom broth. The portions for both were generous. The fresh rolls could have been a meal in themselves. As for flavour, they were a bit bland. They didn't have a good burst of fresh herbs that you expect. Really I could only taste the vermicelli noodles inside with the accompanying fish sauce. The pho again was acceptable but not amazing. I could only eat half of the serving (m - which is the smallest it comes in). The take out included packages of fish sauce, hot sauce, Thai basil, bean sprouts to add to your beef and noodles. The broth was spicy, but at the same time not particularly flavorful. All in all, a decent option if you are craving Vietnamese in Pickering but don't want to venture out too far. read more

Excellent food! Great service! Very reasonable prices and they are very accommodating when asking to modify your order. Hands down best Vietnamese restaurant in Durham region! read more

I have eaten here for years The food and customer service had never disappointed me. So many different dishes and all have been amazing. I have recommended Pho Saigon to a lot of my friends and family who have now have made this their regular dine out restaurant. Life time member read more

Best tom yum soup in Durham region hands down. Also really enjoy their thai curries and grilled beef with rice(I always add a fried egg). Usually get takeout. Prompt and courteous service. Food is consistently good each time. My go to. read more

Ordered takeout lemongrass soup and got home to find I got beef noodle soup. (The receipt says beef noodle as well). Called to have it corrected and the person who I spoke with (young female Asian who answered phone argues with me and she said: "the lemongrass soup is beef noodle soup with lemongrass mixed in with noodles". COME ONE !!!!!!! Felt like they could tell a white guy anything and I will believe them. Up to now this was my go to place for oriental soup and noodles......don't think so going forward Very disappointed. read more

Solid. Nothing less. This place you get an amazing meal, with an amazing portion and a great price. There's not much in the way of Pho out east past Scarborough but this is just as good and in a good Durham area. The extra large is actually quite a lot but still really good soup base. You get more than enough noodles and they do not cheap out on the meat. Had the house special and couldn't be happier. I recommend the Vietnamese sausages to start. Good food read more

This is my favorite restaurant in the Durham Region. I highly recommend Pho Saigon because the food is amazing, the service is excellent and everyone I have taken here has left feeling beyond satisfied. Pho Saigon provides so many tasty options, you have to try out for yourself. read more

Great Spring Rolls! Service is good, the food is good. I've been to this location and the one at Warden and Eglinton. Never disappointed.

Pho was so bland, spring rolls dry and even the garnish was stale. Not my best pho. Wouldn't come back.

This is the place to go if you want pho in Pickering. The service is always quick and friendly. They have very large portions in their noodle dishes and the broth is delicious. read more

Pho Saigon - Medium house special - Vietnamese Near Me - Pickering, Ontario

We love eating here, food is delicious and portions are quite large. Service is friendly, nice atmosphere. Sometimes meals come out at different times depending on how many dishes you order but it's always hot and tasty. We like the noodle soups, vermicelli dishes, and fried tofu is so good. The bubble teas are good too! read more

I like this place. Quick, good hot soup. Very affordable.

We use to go to Pho often in Pickering since their inception a couple of years agao but since they started to raise their prices we have stop going and will eat at other Pho restaurants when we are in Toronto, Markham Richmond Hill area.Overall the food quality, variety on the menu and customer service is good. If only they kept their prices around $5-6 a bowl for a medium. This would be more in line with the good cheaps eats for Pho in Toronto. read more

When this place first opened I was so excited. I love Vietnamese food. It's one of the things I grew up enjoying. I took my parents they were impressed by how authentic the food tasted and the quality of the ingredients. Sadly over time I have seen the value go down. This place was always on the pricier side when compared to those in Scarborough and Markham. It seems every time I go (and it's less and less frequent), the price increases. The portions certainly have not increased. If anything, some of the items such as the pho have shrunk. What I typically order with the family are the shrimp rolls, crispy rolls, vermicelli with grilled beef, rice with grilled chicken and pork chop, and chicken noodle soup. I enjoy their rolls although the shrimp rolls are becoming ridiculously priced at nearly $10 for 4 rolls. The crispy rolls have gotten smaller. I good roll should have plenty of fillings. The grilled meats have the standard lemongrass seasoning. I enjoy the taste. The portions have not changed too much although there was a short time where it was very much hit and miss. The soup for their pho dishes are pretty good. It's a bit on the greasy side. If you plan to order them for take out just be aware that they use plastic containers which do not keep the soup hot. They should be using thick styrofoam to insulate it. As I mentioned earlier, I don't go as often any more. Just when I want to fill a craving without having to drive too far. I'm not sure how they remain in business because every time I go to order food the place is pretty empty. read more

Went to the Ajax location. The decor was wonderful - very modern and clean. We did a groupon here for $20 for two people which I felt was enough even though we went about 2.60 over. We had the deep fried spring rolls to start which were great! And then had two phos (1 beef ball and the other with rare beef and tripe). Both soups were great although we did feel they went skimpy on the tripe. But when brought up with server she went to the kitchen and brought more out to add to our soups at no extra charge! To end the meal off I decided to try their avocado smoothie and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. I would def come here again! read more

OH MY GOSH!!! If you cannot make your signature dish good then you should not be in business. I tried their Pho Dac Biet and the soup had no pho soup taste at all. The beef and the tripe were bland too. All I can say it, make improvements. I make better pho then this place, seriously. The soup was very hot, that was the only good thing I have to say. read more

I used to come here often a few years ago and it wasn't bad but then they started getting new management and their broth changed. The broth seemed watered down or no flavour in general sadly. This is one of the few pho places in durham so its become pretty popular but that doesn't make it my favourite. read more

Spring Rolls are fantastic! The whole menu is a non disappointment. Always excited to drop into the pickering location! Staff and service on point. Definitely a 5 star and a "must check out" if your in the area! read more

The food is so tasty and flavourful. I love the chicken, beef and spring rolls. The price is great too.

Delicious food, I highly recommend the spring rolls and fresh rolls!!! The pho soup has lots of flavour, meat and noodles. Definitely a great spot. read more

My Daughter's Favorite Restaurant. Pho Saigon - Pickering offers a good sized portion of noodles to meat in their Pho. Pretty good broth. Have tried other dishes as well, Thai curries and their stews are tasty too. read more

Friendly Staff. Good food. I know from other friends / family experience, stick with the soup :) My personal fav is the Grilled Beef noodle soup !!! (#55) read more

They have recently reduced the size of their menu. It seems that they have removed some of their previous Thai selections. Food quality and service is still good. read more

Just ate here an was not really impressed. First, my appetizer salad which is on the "appetizer" menu came out after my main course. Secondly, i was in decisive between two soup bowls and asked for a suggestion from the waitress... I chose the one she recommended but both of the soups came out. I told her i only wanted the one (especially cause i was eating alone) but she insisted i ordered both and that i had to pay for both. I'll chalk that up as a misunderstanding but the pho was very bland and to top it off, since i had ordered a spicy dish; all they did was make a normal pho and she added the hot sauce that was on our table to the bowl.. Weird! read more

Not the best Pho, but it's the closest you can get without heading to toronto. I love their pho and noodle dishes. There thai dishes are decent but nothing compared to Red House just down the road. read more

Whenever I am sick all I want is a bowl of Pho hold the beef and add fried tofu. So very good. The broth is flavourful and not too oily. I have had better Pho before and I've had a lot worse but considering this is the only one in Pickering it's pretty good and we go here often, a few times a month sometimes weekly! Veggie and pork spring rolls are both delicious as well, so crispy and flavourful. Staff are pretty friendly when we go there as well and takeout is super fast! read more

I am never one to write a review but after what I witnessed today I must. I came in with my husband this afternoon and had a curry meal which was delicious! Our server was a young woman who was extremely courteous and quick. We were required to wear masks, as per provincial standards so what I did not understand is why guests have a bone to pick over this PROVINCIAL MANDATE with restaurant employees! Our server was aggressively accosted by a rude man who walked in without a mask. The server politely asked him to wear his mask and he shouted at her. If you have a problem wearing a mask take it up with the province not a restaurant employee!!! As if it isnt hard enough for them already. The woman was shocked and visibly hurt and I felt horrible so needless to say I wanted to leave a large tip. Of course there was no tip option!!!! I've been to this restaurant once before and they had a tip option so I do not understand why it was taken out. It seems unfair that the worker has to go through so much to not even be thanked. The food was great, service was great, how else can I thank them?? Also, if you are thinking of dining at this establishment, WEAR A MASK!!!!! read more

Great pho! It's one of my favourite options for the food selection available in the area. I haven't tried anything other than the pho, as it seems to be what they are strongest for. Best to eat it there, but it also works extremely well for take out read more

Some of the best Pho not only in Durham but all of Toronto as well! Beats all the popular pho chains downtown in my opinion. Waiters are courteous and polite and the decor is eons nicer than any other Pho place I've been to. Overall: delicious. read more

Went here once for the pho, and ordered he large pho with rare beef. What I got was just a few measly beef slices, and a bowl filled with noodles. If I wanted to pay $11 for a bowl of noodles I might as well spent gas driving to chinatown for better pho. When I asked the waiter why there was such little beef, they said sorry that's the way we make it. So if you're looking for carb central by all means come to this place. If you're looking for good pho, I would suggest continuing your search elsewhere. read more

good portions, great pho. would go here again. also the restaurant is very nice and wait staff are fast and friendly

I agree, the prices are not great. considering there's much better in Markham, Richmond Hill, downtown and Scarborough areas. Too bad we can't seem to find a Pho restuarant in Durham that has fresh soup, yummy non clumpy thin noodles and crispy spring rolls. What about satay seafood pho? And BBQ Pho? So much to put on the menus. Ahhh, one day I'll be able to drive 5 mins to a decent food outlet. It doesn't even have to be pretty, just good food. read more

I come here often because of the food. The service is horrible. Everytime I come here I always have to ask for something i.e. water, utensils, fish sauce that's supposed to come with appetizers, tea etc. All they do is serve you the food and nothing exceptional about their service at all. With that said, I never tip due to the lack of service. read more

I was in the area visiting a friend and we were hungry so we decided to go grab some pho and ended up here. Friendly service when we walked in. We ordered the fresh rolls with shredded pork for start. I think there was a language barrier because the server thought we said shrimp and pork instead of shredded pork. However they were really nice and changed our dish to shredded pork. My friend ordered the tripe pho and I had the bun bo hue (spicy pork soup) and let me just tell you it was so bland with minimal meat. Extremely disappointed. Don't think I will be coming back here. read more

The staff are mean, rude and very unprofessional, dont go eat at this place. We live in the same Pickering area community and we dont recommend you spending your money here. Its not worth it. Here is my story - the store closes at 9PM, but at 8:45PM, we were handed our receipt without me asking for it. We are still enjoying our dinner and we are the only one left in the restaurant, but after this 'unprofessional' male server handed over our receipt, he standed just a few steps away and was waiting (for the payment) and looking at us. To make the matter worst, one by one, I noticed that the other staff including the kitchen staff converges in the payment counter also a few steps away and started staring at us, no smile just blank stare. This happens at 8:50PM. They are so rude. I lost my appetite and just didn't continue to eat, hurreidly paid without a tip, and off we go. And I said "You will hear from me", hence Im writing this review. read more
