I love this spot and I am happy to try other dishes on the menu. I really enjoyed their bun with beef and egg rolls. Their fish sauce is sweet, but good. 10/10 Also my husband loves getting their com Tham, pick 3 for $21. He always gets 3 pork chops! 10/10 read more

We wanted Viet food and to try a new spot. Stumbled upon here and was pleasantly surprised. The interior is nice and the set up gives almost a lounge feel. We tried below: - Nem Nuong Cuon, Pork Sausage Spring Rolls (Very expensive and almost did not get it, but glad we did, was my favorite dish that night. It was made well and the sauce was great with it! Would definitely get this dish again and highly recommend if you come!) - Pho Ap Chao, Flat Noodle Stir-Fry (Pretty good, would get again) - Bun Rieu, Crabcake Noodle Soup (Was okay, a bit sweeter side and would prefer Bun Rieu from other spots in the area) It's in a shopping center so plenty of spots. Service was fine, I think the waiter helping us that day was new and missed some stuff. But the reason for 4 instead of 5 is because I do think the pricing is a bit high. Food was good though! read more

My friends and I are huge fans of Saigon Bistro. We used to drive to their Sterling location, so we were really happy when they opened a branch closer to us in Chantilly. The food is consistently great. My personal favorites are the Shaking Beef, Lump Crab Fried Rice, Tamarind Fish Soup, and the Stone Pot Soft Shell Crab. Those are must-orders for me every time. I've tried several other dishes too, and honestly everything has been good. The place has a warm, welcoming vibe. It's family-run, and you can feel the friendly service every time you visit. They also have Karaoke night every Friday, which makes it a fun spot to hang out with friends. If you're in the Chantilly area and craving Vietnamese food, this place is definitely worth a visit. PS. If I forget to take a pic, you know it's definitely good read more

I lived in the area some time ago and the previous Viet restaurant at this location was great, but this new one is even better. Hugely improved ambiance and the variety and taste of the dishes is fantastic. The fact that the leadership also comes around and discusses how things are is such a positive aspect. This is a top notch viet place, better than even the seven corners options read more

Saigon bistro catered food to a wedding I went to and the food was phenomenal! Highly recommend the beef banana flower salad, crispy Chilean sea bass, and the shaking beef. Food was truly bomb dot com, the best wedding buffet I've ever had. read more

So glad there's more Vietnamese spots to try! I was seated immediately while waiting for the rest of my party, the place was pretty spacious. Food was good and I'd def come back to try other items on the menu. Shaking beef 4/5 -slightly chewy but I'd order again Steak & Eggs 4.5/5 -pate with the bread and eggs was soooo good Wings 4/5 -sweet&spicy, deducted a point because it got soggy somewhat fast Thai tea (not pictured) 3/5 -I like mine sweet and this tasted like 70% sweet, even with the whipped cream read more

I ordered the crab and pork meatball Pho soup. I didn't like it, honestly. I should have stuck with what I know I like - the chicken Pho soup. But I don't like chicken anymore after having lived near a chicken farm. So it wasn't my scene. But the family I am staying with loves this place and loved the food. They are very happy. The waiter was nice. The place is very clean and well-kept. Apparently it's very noisy on karaoke night. And the people singing karaoke are very good at it! read more

Great service! Amazing food!! I like the ambiance as well. The portions are the best from the appetizers and food to the drinks. The pho broth is very tasty. I had never had Bone- in Beef Pho, but it is my favorite. The short rib pairs perfectly with pho with the fattiness and tenderness of the meat. The spring rolls were great, we tried the pork sausage spring roll and the regular. This is literally my new favorite place for pho. I think everything on the menu looks like it would taste great. Another great item was the watermelon yogurt cooler and kiwi yogurt cooler. So fresh and refreshing!! My daughter ordered the Whipped Thai iced tea and I as very pleased:) read more

I tried this restaurant this week for lunch and we LOVED it! It was incredibly busy, but we were seated as quickly as possible. We were also served very promptly. The inside is decorated nicely as well. They have a good sized menu, but we were here for the pho! I got the "make your own" pho with options A, B, and C. When it came out, it was perfectly hot and delicious. I really enjoyed their broth and it came with a good amount of meat too. I appreciated how it was cut into manageable pieces. I would love to come back here and try more of the menu. read more

Saigon Bistro in Chantilly has truly stepped up their game! The space is surprisingly big and beautifully set up -- and on weekends, they even have karaoke with some seriously talented local artists. It makes the atmosphere so lively and fun, perfect for a night out with friends or family. The service here is amazing -- the waiters and waitresses are friendly, attentive, and super fast with everything. I barely had to wait for refills or food, which is always a big plus. One of their new dishes, the mussels with raw quail egg, totally caught my eye. It looks exquisite -- fancy, delicious, and definitely a must-try for anyone who's a foodie or likes a little adventure when dining out. Their menu has evolved so much since they first opened -- from just a few simple dishes to a wide variety of extraordinary, creative, and beautifully presented options. They still serve the classics like Bún Bò Huế and Phở, which are comforting and authentic, but they've also added more unique dishes like the soft shell crab rice in a stone pot -- absolutely amazing in both presentation and taste. Best of all, this spot is only a 5-minute drive from me, so you can bet I'll be visiting often. Saigon Bistro is definitely a local gem that keeps getting better and better! read more

I go here once again! Service and ambiance the same as usual -- great and no complaints. The Bo Kho was okay. The carrots weren't fully cooked in my opinion (it was too crunchy instead of being soft and absorbed of the stew). The bun rieu was also okay. It was good but was hoping for more crabmeat. read more

I'm not a pho person at all but Saigon Bistro is the place to go! I had a bit of a sniffle and wanted to get some spicy broth so I came over to Saigon and they were booked and busy! The overall place was gorgeous and the owners were very hospitable. My mom got the chicken pho and I got the spicy lemon grass pho with a beef rib in it and it was really good and light. Not overwhelming in flavor or acidic due to spice it was all perfectly balanced. We also ordered crispy egg rolls and they were really good and packed with minced pork and veggies. I will def come back and make a reservation next time because they also had 3 big party reservations and I ca. definitely see why. Also the price was decent. read more

We absolutely loved this restaurant. The ambiance is warm and friendly and the food absolutely delicious. We had some rice dishes as well as the Vermicelli and it was so great! The food was made really well and had an elevated style to it -- almost like a different take on Vietnamese food. We really enjoyed the unique nature of the taste and made the experience very enjoyable. The wait staff was extremely attentive and the manager was very kind to come to our table and personally explain the menu. We will surely be coming back! read more

Grand opening on Aug 2- a new re-branded spot opened in the plaza. We were pleasantly surprised by the ambience of the place- very clean, classy, wide, and accomodating for groups and families! The service was wonderful, too. Food: Bone in pho 7/10. The broth hit the spot and the meat was so soft and juicy! Shaking beef 8/10. Portion is pretty good, beef seasoning was great, the pairing was great with the onions and tomatoes. Would get this again! Can't wait to return to try some other dishes, too. read more

Came here with friends to celebrate a birthday lunch, and it was my first time trying this place -- absolutely loved it. From the moment we sat down, everything was a great experience. We ordered a bunch of dishes to share: fresh spring rolls, fried spring rolls, beef banana flower salad, crispy noodles, and the shaking beef. Every single dish was packed with flavor, and the portions were generous, which made it perfect for sharing. Nothing felt skimpy or bland -- you can really tell care goes into the food. The service was amazing. The staff was attentive, friendly, and happy to give recommendations. When they found out we were celebrating a birthday, they went above and beyond by making special birthday drinks and even bringing out a dessert with candles so we could sing happy birthday. That extra touch really made the day feel special. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'd definitely come back and would highly recommend this place for group lunches or celebrations. read more

Got takeout for lunch. Easy ordering online and food was ready when we arrived. I ordered the cha gio (fried spring rolls) and the gio Bo (beef banana flower salad) I enjoy cha gio with the rice paper so really enjoyed this. Never had the beef banana flower salad so had to try it....it was so good. It was such a nice combination of spicy, sweet, and salty. I would definitely get this again. read more

Came in on a weekday to get carry-out to bring home for dinner later in the evening. Service here was great; very friendly and helpful. Their menu has all the Viet-favs, including Pho, which is what I wanted. I got 3 Pho Ga and an extra broth and asked for the onions to be separated, as I love them, but a family member doesn't. Everything was packed perfectly and made to travel. We quickly heated it all up later at dinnertime and it came together perfectly. The ingredients, veggies, and broth were all very fresh. The broth was incredibly tasty! It had a slight heat to the spice level, which is a welcome addition to the star anise flavors were usually used to. The chicken wasn't thinly sliced, rather it was pulled and it was also perfect for eating in a soup! The sizes were great, not too chunky and tough.... It was also nicely tender! Overall, we've tried many Pho places in Northern VA and so far this is our favorite! Definitely will return!! read more

Nice spacious Vietnamese restaurant with bar as well. I love that bar was not too close to each other. Service was good and fast. Food: Bu Bo Hue 5/5 $17.00 - Nice and delicious and flavorful broth. I do wish that it has the pork blood curd like how is serve in most authentic Vietnamese restaurant, but it was till filling with great amount of meats. Ice Coffee 5/5 $6- Not your typical Vietnamese drip ice coffee texture it a bit thicker and foamier but the flavor is the same but more intense but still good. Overall, I would still come back again since the food was delicious read more

Came to Saigon Bistro with my parents. If you can impress the old school Vietnamese then it's decent. So our server cool dude but a bit too chill why are you sitting down like you know is taking out order but I am to sure if you are going to remember our order since you have no notepad or toast device. Second if you're going to correct and confirm our order either choose to do it in Vietnamese or English and stop the vinglish. Sorry it rubbed me the wrong way and I'm usually pretty tolerant but that was just odd for me . Dishes are as follows: +Nem Nuong Cuon - Pork Sausage Spring Rolls + Goi Ga(Coriander Chicken Salad +Bun Rieu -Crabcake Noodle Soup + Muc Rang Muoi-Salt and Pepper Calamari + Bo Ne -Steak & Eggs +Bo Luc Lac -Shaking Beef mom ordered bun rieu it because they ran out of Banh Xeo... um how do you run out ? I've never heard that before . So here the dish breakdown +Nem Nuong Cuon - Pork Sausage Spring Rolls -recent sized rolls but $13??? And a tiny bit of sauce. -sauce was a bit thin compared to what I'm used but still gave me the overall flavor associated with with this roll specifically + Goi Ga(Coriander Chicken Salad -a bit bland for me not really full on flavor. It was just okay. +Bun Rieu -Crabcake Noodle Soup - didn't taste it but mom wasn't too convinced by this one for her . I did taste the Rieu which was more of a shrimp meatball vibe. If you like that seafood flavor versus the pork flavor overpowering. + Muc Rang Muoi-Salt and Pepper Calamari -it's decent if you like a heavier batter I'm used to a lighter airy coating where you don't have to fight your squid. A bit tough and not al dente. It wasn't easy to bite into and it was served with sweet chili sauce. It's fine everyone loves sweet chili but I prefer the salt & pepper lime version. + Bo Ne -Steak & Eggs -well it was sizzling versus the last time I had Bo ne at another place in Eden center. (IYKYK) fish was a bit salty for me I didn't even use the sauce on the side. The beef a bit tough for me. Since these are cubes of beef rather than thin slices of beef I prefer mine medium. Although I'm pretty sure that these are the same beef that was in the Bo Luc Lac. Bread was the soft pillowy kind and nice toasted good crumb but bland. Let's call it average bread. +Bo Luc Lac -Shaking Beef -after having Bo Ne and then having these cubes of beef this one was a tad bit sweeter. I mean the veggies on this dish were massively needed with my Bo ne. Cause man was that salty. This shaky beef was okay again beef was well done cooked and not medium so it was a bit tough. Overall: So it was average to my parents would they go back? I think if we are in chantilly and want to get Vietnamese food and I don't mind splurging on this is the place. However being so close to Eden Center and other varied places the price point is just too high and yes there is quality but if the execution of the dish is teetering in flavor I cannot justify paying the price for quality food ingredients with decent execution. I'm picky with Vietnamese food because there is a specific profile for dishes which makes the specific dish unique. read more

Saigon Bistro TL;DR: A huge restaurant with plenty of tasty Vietnamese staples such as pho, bun bo hue, and much more. Saigon Bistro recently took over this space from another pho shop that had been here for a while. This is their second location, with their first location being in Sterling. Overall, this is a great addition to the area, where we are fortunate to have a lot of amazing pho options! I look forward to coming back and trying some of their other dishes. Food: Pho - I got the tai, nam, bo vien. The broth was delicious (not too sweet, but also not too "clean"). Portions were good for the price. Bun bo hue - Served with all of the typical sides that you'd expect for BBH was happy to see that had banana blossoms (e.g., shredded cabbage, etc.) Great broth and noodles. Cha gio - The spring rolls were served piping hot! Would def get these again. The Sate was also delicious. It tasted homemade, and I kept adding more to my broth because it was so good! Parking: There's a huge parking lot in the shopping center. Vibes: The restaurant is huge! They even have a little stage for live music (or who knows, maybe even karaoke!) Service: Excellent. They were super attentive. read more

Was so excited to try this place, but food & portions didn't live up to the higher price point. -Thai tea: so strong & bitter. Needed more milk & sugar to even out the bitterness. -Spring rolls: they were definitely prewrapped & stored in the fridge. The rice paper itself was hardened & not soft like it is supposed to be. -Crab fried rice: favorite thing we ordered. Just wish there were bigger crab chunks. -Lobster Scallion ginger noodles: flavor was good, but the lobster was so overcooked, which left it SO chewy & hard to separate the meat. Portion size was comical given the high price point. Just some more noodles would've gone a long way. Food was just okay & not worth the prices IMO. Service was great though. read more

Before my long commute home, I decide to stop by here to grab a bite to eat. It was welcoming as soon as I stepped through the door. The waiter was extremely nice. The place was a very comfortable place to be in. They also do live Vietnamese karaoke on Fridays. I had the fresh summer rolls (Goi Cuon), crab fried rice, calamari and pho with chicken. The Goi Cuon is the best I've had since living in Virginia (I've been here since 2002). The crab fried rice was perfect, not greasy, and tasty . The calamari was hand made and tasted like fresh! The pho is pretty good; close to how I make mine (I'm half Vietnamese). I will definitely be back! read more

Came here for a casual date :) There's a lot of natural light and the decor is really pretty. The staff are all super friendly and joked with us. The food came quickly, which pleasantly surprised me since it was so busy. I wanted to try other pho spots besides Pho 75, and I had a sip of the broth from my partner and it was very flavorful. I had the nem nuong cuon, which went very well with the seafood sauce. The server even cut the two rolls into smaller pieces so we could easily share. The coffee was also fantastic and helped fulfill the craving I had for a good Vietnamese coffee. I'm definitely coming back since the location is so convenient, and I would especially recommend it if you're newer to Vietnamese food since it has such a welcoming vibe. read more

I've been here for the previous managements so this was different but I'm pleasantly surprised. The interior -- I needed to get used to, but very comfortable with the booths, nice bar, little stage. The mi xao gion was delicious, could use a little more sauce maybe, but perfectly crispy. The lump crab fried rice had garlic bits and crunchy rice that made it different and very flavorful. Service was friendly, my family's regulars. Would come here again. The price is a little bit steep but as you can see from the crispy noodles, this is definitely a shareable place. Would highly recommend! read more

My wife and I had a bad experience in our last visit. We absolutely loved this restaurant but will not be coming back.

Got a dinner to go and the food was good! The bun bo hue was tasty and came with a sate that is BOMB! The chicken fried rice was fragrant, although the chicken was dry would try shrimp next time.

Saigon Bistro - Chantilly This place has only been open about seven months, taking over an older Vietnamese restaurant -- but the transformation is incredible. The moment you walk in, you feel a blend of modern and classic Vietnamese décor... warm, clean, spacious, and somehow cozy in a way that truly feels like home. Or better yet -- feels like Vietnam. The atmosphere is beautiful, the space is well-designed, and everything is spotless. But what impressed me the most? The food. Tasty, flavorful, beautifully presented -- every dish has that "home comfort" taste we grew up with, but elevated. Service was also excellent -- friendly, quick, and welcoming. I had the pleasure of meeting the partners: Khoa, Brian, and Tim -- some of the hardest-working and most dedicated restaurateurs I've ever met. Their passion shows in every detail of this place. And with the restaurant being less than 10 minutes from IAD Airport, it's the perfect stop for anyone visiting the DMV and craving real Vietnamese comfort food done right. A solid 5 stars all the way. A beautiful addition to Chantilly -- and a place I'll gladly be back to. read more

We went during the grand opening and it was pretty packed. They say us in a kind of weird table that was located at the backside of a couch for another table. We ordered several items and they were all pretty good. The canh chua (sour fish soup) came on a burner which wasn't really necessary and took up a lot of space on our table. Maybe it was just our makeshift table, but it felt really cramped. We also ordered the lemongrass chicken stir fry which had a smoky flavor. The beef salad was really tasty and something that you don't always find on the menu. Actually, there were quite a few unique items on the menu. I enjoyed the food and would come back again read more

I came in on an evening before what looks like an event. There were people dinning in and staff was rearranging the furniture around. The hostess stated there would be about a 25 minute wait. I waited and waited. It passed that time and when I tried to find the hostess to check if something was available, I wasn't able to locate her. Another person who was running around asked if I was coming in for the event and I said no. It seemed like he might've been the person running the place as he was instructing people around when having the moving the tables and chairs. He immediately placed me in the far back right corner of the restaurant. I had ordered the Bo Kho and Bun Rieu. The food was delicious. A little too salty for my taste, but I didn't mind it. I would like to come back for maybe a redemption, as the food was good. It was just the experience prior to seating that had left a bad impression on me. read more

GO LOOK AT MY PROFILE AND REVIEW HISTORY. I DO NOT POST REGULARLY, LIKE, AT ALL. But after my first time eating here with my family tonight, I just KNEW that I had to recover my password just to login, just so I could school you guys on how amazing this place is. Do you have ANY IDEA how much effort that takes as a dad of a 6 year old that just went to sleep? Anyways, the service was TOP NOTCH. You're greeted right away with a smile and you're awed at how beautiful and chic the decor is. You're sat in beautiful table arrangements at your own choosing (well, it wasn't that busy when we arrived so), and the server Sam enthusiastically and thoughtfully provides a 5-point consultation on what exactly you're there to experience in your meal and time at this establishment. We got the salt and pepper calamari (FIRE), beef and banana flower salad (like wtf is that bro, trust me it's FIRE) and the pork sausage spring roll (FIRE). My boy needed noodles so we got the house special pho (FIRE) and the spare ribs platter (FIRE). This ain't exactly your hole-in-the-wall pho joint so my expectations were really low, and well, I'm an idiot, because this joint was a HIT. Deep, flavorful broth without too much of that star-anise smell that lots of pho joints overdo. STUPID amount of meats too. Short Rib Platter was BOMB but that's only because I reeeeally like some "chew & tear" to my meat. If you're looking for super delicate short rib, I would pass. Sanjay had is service game ON POINT. It almost seemed like his fulltime job was to make sure that NO glass is ever less than halfway empty- and he was always so cheerful. There's a bunch of other things I want to try. All that came out to $84 and for the quality, portions, and service, this is an incredible value for a family of 3 that eats a lot. Go check this place out bro, you won't regret it read more

Though I've never dined at the former Pho Bac, I am not too impress with this new restaurant. There were a few signs that I look for in a Vietnamese restaurant. There was karaoke which was a good sign. The menu had items that we would find at Eden Center. That's also a plus. The staff's kids brought water to the table and checked on us. Typical for an Asian restaurant. Service was overall excellent. With all that said, I wasn't a fan of the food. I ordered Bun Rieu which is a dish that I love. The broth was kind of plain and lackluster. We also had calamari which was descent. It wasn't as crispy for being fried. We loved the sausage summer rolls and that was the highlight of my meal. The Bo Ne was good. It's not the best version of this dish that I've had. And the vermicelli with crispy egg rolls dish was standard. The interior was well designed. I could get over how the floors were probably not changed when they changed restaurants. With the foods that we had, this place is ok for me. read more

We went for the first time and it happened to be on fathers day. The restaurant was significantly under-prepared. Good news is the restaurant was nonstop consistently busy, bad news was it was severely understaffed. We ordered a couple salads (lotus and banana blossom) - both were very good. The mains were all just ok - the BBH is just ok - definitely good for close by option but not the best. Bo Kho is a bit over fragrant and inconsistent - we ordered 2 and one came with noodles and one didn't. But server didn't ask for clarification. The Bo Ne only came with 1 egg..anywhere else we've been, comes with two. The garlic egg noodles were overly soggy - noodles and vegetables. Lastly, we ordered Vietnamese iced coffees and they came with whipped cream! Highly recommend the restaurant preface the drink, even if it is a "signature". Nowhere else we have ever been comes with whipped cream. Save some time and effort by informing customers. read more
