I've been on the hunt to find good Vietnamese food in the NYC area and managed to make my way to Jersey for this spot! Their portions are solid and the pho broth was pretty good! They are really generous with the meats and it was a super filling meal for the price! The staff was really sweet and it looks like a small family run business and inside they can only really fit 12 people or so! I noticed as I was eating there, the takeout orders were nonstop so they must have a loyal following! We got the beef & brisket pho which had a nice broth - slightly sweet but with all the veggies and sauces put in, I was able to get the taste I was looking for. We also got the spring rolls which were fried perfectly! I absolutely love a good crunch when I wrap the spring rolls in the lettuce! Definitely swing by or order to-go from this spot! read more

One place that I always forget about, but glad when I remember. We have eaten here twice and it's a little hidden gem that needs no polish. The dining room and restaurant itself is bare-bones, but the food is fantastic. Before you do any eating, be sure to order the Vietnamese Coffee. It's like a chocolate milk/touch of coffee ice cream with the kick of Sea Biscuit. My wife always gets a Pho, and I get one of the many other selections. Banh Mi, Shaken Cubed-Steak, Vermicelli Combo, etc. We have yet to try dessert due to always being full. You'll definitely get your money's worth here ! read more

We stopped in for a second time but this time I remembered to give them a review! FANTASTIC pork bahn mi sandwich as the meat was roasted perfectly with plenty of flavor. Their roll is real quality and certainly makes the sandwich that much better. We also ordered the chicken pho and it was in a massive bowl (only size) and full of robust flavors. The chicken was char-grilled, a real bonus and surprise! Service was wonderful from the young lady and we will certainly be back read more

You can dine in, but we picked up instead. You can either do street parking or park in the medical center parking lot. It was a bit of a wait for the food to be ready, but the staff were nice and the environment was relaxing. I really enjoyed everything I ordered: - grilled chicken vermicelli platter - grilled chicken banh mi - Vietnamese spring rolls Portions were good at reasonable prices. read more

Great service! Left a good impression as she was very courteous and conscientious. The food was hearty and authentic. This simple but popular store was tastefully decorated albeit with a small space to work with. We tried the Spicy Lemongrass Pho and Beef Banh Mi. Together with a Vietnamese Iced Coffee and free Iced Thai Tea! read more

This place is small with huge flavor! I absolutely loved the service my girl was super friendly and knowledgeable made a great recommendation. The pork pho and beef pho were phenomenal best pho I've had hands down. You can smell the broth and it just takes you to a different time it's insane such a great experience must come here! It's a tiny place but it's worth the wait if they're busy. This place is very reasonable for the portion you'll get! read more

Stopped in for a quick and affordable lunch at this casual Vietnamese spot. A young teenage girl took our orders, nice kid. She made our coffee and tea and was pleased to hear they were great. Then our entrees came: grilled vermicelli platter with chicken, shrimp, and spring rolls combo and grilled chicken and rice platter--Nice and simple but delicious and fresh. The ambiance is pretty chill, there are Christmas ornaments still up in May and some boxes piled against the wall but the place is tidy. I'll likely drop it again to try some pho and apps. read more

I pre-ordered for pick up for a Friday at 1. I've ordered from their Jersey City Heights location before and really liked. This location had lunch combos though, so that was nice. Combos come with a choice of four entrees + 1 side (pick from pho broth or a pair of spring rolls) + a drink (regular can of soda but you can pay an extra $1 for Thai iced tea or extra $1.50 for Vietnamese iced coffee). We ended up doing one of each of the entrees. We had the pho, pork chops over rice, chicken with vermicelli, and a banh mi. The pho hit the spot on a cold and rainy day. Spring rolls tasted a bit over-fried but at least they used rice paper, instead of the frozen spring roll wrappers. Everything else was fine but it's probably because it was cold by the time I drove home. I wouldn't mind going back again if I was in the area and trying dine in. But I probably wouldn't go out of my way to do so. read more

Pretty standard but solid Vietnamese restaurant in Cliffside Park. I ordered the Grilled Vermicelli Platter with chicken, beef, and spring rolls. The meat was decent, but a bit tough at certain parts. The spring rolls were tasty. The noodles were pretty ordinary vermicelli noodles. There was a good ratio of noodles to veggies to meat in this bowl, which I appreciated. I think this was a good deal for $14.49 given the fairly large portion size and quality. The menu doesn't have a particularly large amount of options, but they have the Vietnamese classics (pho, banh mi, etc.) that you would expect there. The restaurant itself is pretty small with several tables for seating. There were only a few others dining in when I went on a Friday night though, so finding an open table was no problem at all. It looked to be a family-run small business and the family running the place was friendly and helpful. The service speed was average. The place has a bit of Vietnamese-style decor but I wouldn't call the environment particularly nice - more like just a standard small business restaurant kind of vibe. There is some street parking available outside and on the nearby streets. Overall, there wasn't really anything that particularly stood out to me about Saigon Bistro, but it was a solid experience in general. If you are in the Cliffside Park area and in the mood for some Vietnamese food, then I think Saigon Bistro would be a very good option. read more

Great Vietnamese restaurant with I think 3 locations now. I have dinning in at their Fort Lee location and few times and have order takeout and delivery from the Cliffside Park location many times. Their pho is really flavorful and the beef is always very tender. The spring rolls are made with the rice paper which really love. They always pack everything securely. read more

Best Vietnamese spot in the area. I've gotten rice platters, vermicelli, and hot noodle soups for takeout or delivery. I am glad we no longer need to go to Fort Lee for decent pho. read more

A familiar name is back in another location in the area, which is great to see. If you've been to Saigon Kitchen in Fort Lee (or Saigon Bistro in Jersey City) then this place will be second nature to you, in a good way. Like its sister restaurant, which has a similar menu as here, this is a solid place to get decent pho and other Vietnamese dishes. My go to at SK has always been the simple beef pho along with a side of spring rolls. I got the same items here and taste wise it's about the same (in a good way). The broth is decent and the spring rolls are well fried. The service is great and the space is small but comfortable. My only issue is that parking on this busy street with a tricky corner/bend is not that easy to grab during peak hours but beyond that there's nothing wrong with having another good Vietnamese restaurant with dependable food in the area! read more

Finally there is a solid Vietnamese restaurant that opened in Cliffside Park!! Hubby and I went for dinner tonight . We ordered summer roll, chicken wings, beef pho and shaken cubed steak, we enjoyed every single dish we ordered. While the menu is small, but every dish we had is with very fresh ingredients and is very tasty. The portion is also very satisfying. Service is very good. During our meal, one of the staff ( not sure if he is the manager?) stopped by our table and thanks us for dining in, he mentioned the restaurant just opened two weeks ago, he also mentioned the restaurant owner also owns Saigon Kitchen in Fort Lee and these two restaurants use the same pho broth. If you didn't want to deal with the traffic in Fort Lee but craved for a good bowl of pho, I highly recommended this place. read more

We were in the area and since i was abit under the weather, we wanted something soupy. What better choice than pho? I had a house special pho and bf had the spicy lemongrass noodle soup. We devoured our noodle soups. It was just the right portion, the soup was very flavorful yet clear and not fatty at all. We both decided we would come back if we're ever in the area since its not too far from mitsuwa where we frequent once in awhile. Its a tiny spot with about 3 tables. Gives u the mom and pops feel. Restaurant appeared clean and service was good ! Dont sleep on this spot!! read more

To be honest the soup was pretty sweet than what we expected.. but has good meats and noodles were good cooked. Summer roll with shrimp has good veggies in and with peanut sauce was good as an appetizer. Don't forget to drink hot tea since it's getting cold out. read more

As most know, the pho broth is most important part of this dish. The broth is savory without overpowering the rest of the dish...I've ordered the spicy lemograss pho combo...absolutely amazing. Ordered the banh mi and it did not disappoint...could eat it everyday. Our server was a woman named Christine...she's the perfect hostess/waitress/server. Very kind and considerate. She did not hover but was always available when needed. The place was very cozy and had an intimate atmosphere. It's not fancy but it was warm and inviting. I rather enjoy the food and service than nitpick on decor. If I could, I would eat here everyday. read more

Was craving pho and decided to try this place out. Ordered for takeout and the guy on the phone was super nice. I got the spicy lemon grass soup and my boyfriend got the regular brisket pho. The broth was phenomenal for both and so deep in flavor and the portion was good too. The Thai iced tea was very good too. Just sad it was a small cup but regardless, one of the better Thai iced teas I had. Did not taste artificial at all! Wish I took a better picture but the packaging to go was great too and it was still piping hot when we got back home. Would definitely come back ! read more

Fantastic small Vietnamese restaurant, with great food, even better service and ok seating. For a small location, they made good use of their limited space and they communicate regularly if the food will be delayed. My only small complaint would be probably due to the kitchen being so close and the ventilation not being great, our clothes had the food smell afterwards but I won't take a star off since it wasn't too bad. I know their prices will go up eventually but their current price for their food quality is hard to beat. read more

The Spicy Lemongrass Soup is SO good! It's very flavorful and has lots of great topping. Portion is great as well. I can eat 2 meals from one order. The wings on the other hand were way too small for 6 wings to be $12. They were absolutely delicious but definitely overpriced for the portion. Excellent food! read more

Highly recommend. read more

The food here is pretty good. I usually get the garlic sauté and tofu and mushroom banh mi. The food is tasty but because they put mushrooms in the banh mi, it always is soggy which I don't like. Besides that, the food is flavorful and the service is quick. read more

I love the food! The pho broth tastes really clean & refreshing and I can't get enough of the crispy spring rolls. Hannah is super friendly and always loves to make you enjoy your time here! There's also convenient parking with the store feeling comfortable when you sit down for a meal. read more

Best pho in Bergen County by far. I like the combos where they put sliced beef and tendons and meatballs. other restaurants don't have that much varieties. read more

Best Viet spot in the area! Me and my husband have been weekly regular customers before we moved to another area (we still drive 30 minutes just to come here). It is a family owned business, the owner and his kids are super friendly and kind. Food is so delicious, my favorite is the Spicy Lemongrass soup/pho, the broth is so flavorful. Dining in is always a better option because it tastes more fresh. Saigon Bistro is probably the only Vietnamese restaurant that we go regularly, if you live in the area this place is definitely worth visiting. read more

Stopped in for takeout and got the beef banh mi and spring rolls. The spring rolls were pretty substantial and I asked for the peanut sauce instead of the regular sauce, which the proprietor very kindly provided. The banh mi was good and I liked that they put they mayo and pate on the side so it didn't get soggy. I scored a metered spot out front but I can see parking being iffy out front. A solid lunch choice read more

Stopped here for a late lunch I was craving Vietnamese and this place popped up. I must say the food is great and definitely a bang for your buck. I found it reasonably priced for the generous portions they offer. I had the vermicelli noodles with shrimp while my partner got the spicy lemongrass pho which were bombbb. The waiter was very kind and the food made it out fast. We will definitely be coming back frequently! read more

Saigon Bistro - Grilled Vermicelli Platters Spicy Lemongrass Soup Thai Iced Tea - Vietnamese Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

Came here for a weekday lunch and we were pleased with our meal! We ordered Vietnamese Spring Rolls, Beef Pho, Beef Banh Mi, and Grilled Pork over Rice Vietnamese Spring Rolls - Nice and crispy - filled with nice ground meat - the wrapper itself is crispy and not too heavy with oils that some restaurants make. The inside is a tad dry but we still enjoyed it. Beef Pho - Nice large portion, well flavored broth. The brisket is lean and the beef meatballs are fairly standard tasting from other pho places. What really made their pho great is adding the home made chili oil with fried garlic - delish! Grilled Pork over Rice - Pork is solid, a tad dry and rice is overdone - but seasoning is there Beef Banh Mi - Fresh baguette, nicely dressed with pickled radish and carrots and seasoned beef - a solid sandwich - We wished the meat wasn't so lightly portioned. Parking is left to be desired. And other than some drier side meats (except the Pho - no issues there) the food was good. Overall a solid choice and a good addition to the area! read more

Best Viet food in town hands-down! Moved from Flushing, NY and was very disappointed with the (non-Korean) Asian cuisine options around the area. My go-to's are the BBH, pho and classic bahn-mi.

I was in the area visiting a friend and we had takeout from this new Vietnamese place. Ordered grilled chicken over rice and the beef combo pho. After eating the pho, I was extremely thirsty. The grilled chicken was a bit dry and they cut the chicken into shredded pieces for you. Portions are a bit small for these price points. Menu has limited options, assuming because it is a new place. Street metered parking in front of the restaurant. Inside is quite small, not many tables, maybe around 4-5 tables. read more
