    Food was great! Very flavorful. Service was quick and food was delivered to the table quickly. Ambiance is casual. Keep in mind it is a small restaurant with a heavy takeout flow on weekends so you eating around everyone. It is in a shopping center so parking is convenient. Matcha milk cake was fantastic.

    Seafood pho

    Solid prices, great menu and really good Vietnamese food. We dropped by for lunch one day visiting our old neighborhood and was pleasantly surprised by the menu, and ultimately the food. What a nice treat, bowls were pretty huge, we had our kids share one bowl of pho and it was PLENTY. They have all the regular fixings and offerings plus a few menu options like a special calamari dish, various teas and drinks and some apps that are great options for sharing. Summer rolls (5/5) were fresh, big and delish Pho we tried the combo, regular and seafood all were (5/5) good broth, ample noodles and loads of yummy ingredients The restaurant overall is small and located in the plaza with CVS and Panera. Would recommend and would definitely come back. Not the best photos sorry! We were a hungry bunch. Staff was friendly and quick!

    I'm so glad to have a great pho restaurant in fair lawn! We've dined in a few times but mostly do takeout from Saigon Bistro. The inside is on the smaller side, with 4-5 tables. For appetizers, the tofu summer rolls and great. They're refreshing and come with a delicious peanut dipping sauce. We always get pho- the vegetable, chicken, and beef are all great. And they package the pho very well for takeout- the noodles and add-ins come separately from the broth. We've tried the curry noodle, pad Thai, banh mi, everything is great. The staff are also very nice and do their best to accommodate special requests.

    We were pleasantly surprised when we stopped by here for dinner. Hidden in a small strip mall in town, the inside is bigger than what it seems outside. It was spacious with a few tables for those dining in and decorated with painting depicting different aspects of Vietnamese culture. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the service was good. The food was actually really good! Most of us had noodle dishes, and my husband had the pork belly banh mi. The price for what we ordered was very reasonable. We definitely do plan to come back the next time we're around.

    Spicy Lemongrass Soup

    The Spicy Lemongrass Soup was more creamy than it was spicy but still very delicious and fresh in a way too. The pho is also great here - and if you're ordering the meat rolls, ask for more of the pickled daikon and carrots, as the acidity really helps cut out any greasiness from the soups. Service was a bit spotty but there was limited front of house staff and a lot of pickup orders being placed/fulfilled.

    Thai Iced Tea

    6/15/24 We were in the neighborhood and decided to stop in for lunch. YUM! Service was good. Food was so good. Cute little place with just a few tables. Vietnamese Ice Coffee - hubby loved it, I don't drink coffee. Viet-Style Wing - so good, hubby was not happy because they didn't have the little drumstick part of the wing Sugarcane Shrimp - delicious! Slightly sweet and savory a perfect combo Grilled Rice Platter with Pork Chop - I loved it, so tasty. I only wish I had more! Definitely will come back next time we are in the area.

    Delicious food and friendly service. Small dining area. Pho was so fantastic. As was the vermicelli platter and summer rolls. The peanut sauce that accompanied the summer rolls was top notch. Everything tasted so fresh.

    Food: 2.5/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 2.5/5 Truly just an okay experience with okay pho dac biet. I prefer mine to have more spices in the broth and al dente noodles.

    Beef Combo Pho
    Kaitlyn C.

    Not meant for large groups! Very limited seating inside and I waited approx. 10 min for a table but wasn't bad. Spring rolls were so crispy and piping hot. Great filling and flavor. The beef combo pho is the best option if you aren't picky with meats. Good variety, healthy serving of meats and noodles, and clean, flavorful broth

    I can't think of a better soup for a snowy weekend in #newjersey! @saigoninnj serves the hottest, freshest and most flavorful Pho. Pro tip-order your beef extra rare on the side for a quick cooking tender technique! With four locations in New Jersey @saigoninnj got you covered! We visited #fairlawnnj location and it was authentically Vietnamese! The service is amazing and they have indoor seating! Insta: @thehungrysw Pho House Specialty Noodle Soup-Slow cooked beef broth, charred onions, roasted ginger, star anise, cinnamon, other Vietnamese herbs and spices. Spicy Lemongrass Noodle Soup-Imported chilies from Huế, garlic, rice noodles, thinly sliced beef, brisket, and beef ball.

It tastes like home no matter what your background. Nothing better on a cold rainy day. Grilled Pork lemon grass is another favorite. Love this place!

    Pho-king delicious…read more It was one of the coldest days of the year and we were craving a comforting bowl of pho (rice noodle soup) to warm ourselves up. We visited Vietnam Pho in Woodland Park, located on Rt 46. It's in a business complex so there's plenty of parking. It's a casual, cozy, and family-owned restaurant with a spacious seating area. The staff is welcoming and attentive. The menu offers all of the Vietnamese classics you're craving - steaming bowls of pho, vermicelli noodles topped with fresh vegetables, crispy banh mi sandwiches, stir-fries, and a variety of grilled meats like lemongrass pork and chicken. And if you're a boba lover, they even have bubble tea. Prices are reasonable, but here's a big tip: You get a 10% discount when you pay with cash. There's an ATM inside. There were a few hits and misses with our order, but overall we left feeling satisfied with our meal. The misses: *Vietnamese Iced Coffee with Condensed Milk ($5.95) - This was much sweeter and thicker than I expected! It tasted more like a dessert drink than an iced coffee. The condensed milk's sweetness overpowered the coffee flavor. I have a big sweet tooth, so I still enjoyed it. But if you're sensitive to sugar, you might want to skip this or ask for less milk. *Fresh Shrimp/Summer Rolls with poached shrimp,vermicelli, & peanut sauce ($7.95) - Not a fan. The rolls were bland and mostly just filled with vermicelli noodles. The peanut sauce was a let down. The flavors were off and it had a watery consistency. It barely tasted like peanuts. I don't know if they used too much vinegar or sugar, but either way... the ingredients were completely unbalanced. Now for the hits... We came for the STAR DISH: PHO! Every order comes with rice noodles, beef broth, white onions, scallions, and cilantro with a side of bean sprouts, lime, basil, and jalapeno peppers. We ordered: *Pork Chop Pho ($16.95) - I absolutely loved the lemongrass marinade (made with lemongrass, fish sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, & shallots)! The meat was juicy, sweet, and savory. I could tell the chef grilled it perfectly because of the smoky charred edges. *Rare Beef & Well Done Brisket Pho ($14.95 size small) - They did not skimp out on the protein here! The beef cuts were large, tender, and flavorful! The broth was the heart of the pho - aromatic, warm, and rich! The spices (cinnamon, cardamom, star anise, and coriander) made it taste even better. I always enjoy adding hot chili and hoisin sauce for that extra heat and sweetness. The noodles were silky smooth and soaked up all that beefy broth. Yum, yum! And you can't forget about loading up on the garnishes to add a satisfying crunch and more flavor in every slurp! Pho was the perfect comfort food on the coldest day of the year~

I customized my pho bowl by adding the Beef Ball (Bo Vien), which also came with rice noodles, cilantro, onion, and scallions. I was given a mini bag filled with jalapeños, basil leaves, limes, bean sprouts, sriracha packets, and hoisin sauce packets to complement the pho. Overall, the soup was absolutely dynamite and comforting. The broth had a superb flavor bomb, which made the entire meal extremely satisfying. I enhanced my bowl with the addition of jalapeños, basil leaves, lime juice, and sriracha sauce. The order was delivered in a timely manner. The staff member who assisted me over the phone was super kind, especially since I requested extra sriracha packets. The price point of the pho was nicely affordable. Overall, I highly recommend going to Binh Duong IV for a delicious bowl of pho. This restaurant does not disappoint when it comes to the satisfaction and taste of the food.

    3.5: A casual, unpolished spot for Vietnamese food that's probably better for takeout…read more We stopped here for lunch on a weekend and there were a few customers already dining in and quite a few takeout orders coming in. They had two kinds of pho: one with three types of meat (rare steak, beef balls and brisket -$16) and one with one meat ($15) plus choice of additional protein at either $1 or $2 extra. Both were pretty good but we felt quite thirsty afterward from the sodium and seasonings. We enjoyed the tofu spring rolls (though the tofu was hard to pick out) and the summer rolls. There was a little miscommunication around the pho and what was included, and my pho came out with the wrong type of protein at first. But they fixed it in short order and were nice and accommodating. The actual space looks like a larger Chinese takeout place so nothing special there. There's also a sign that said to seat yourself and then order at the kiosk. The server was there and said he could serve us. But you can save money by just ordering at the kiosk or getting takeout. 3% more on credit card orders too. I guess the prices are what you get these days but felt it, maybe because of the lack of ambiance. The plaza is pretty sad looking, with some empty storefronts and smaller shops like a nail place, pizza, small Greek spot, and a Fresh Grocer. The plus side is parking is easy peasy.

    My girlfriend and I visited Tasty Junction for an early dinner one Saturday. They weren't too busy…read moreso it was easy to find a table for 2. Once you sit down you scan a QR Code to order your food and drinks. I was pretty hungry that day so we ended up ordering a ton of food. The drinks were pretty good and they were served in Le Creuset mugs. Not the biggest deal, but I can appreciate some nice drinkware. The bowl of Kimchi Fried rice came out first. It was a generous portion and the rice was cooked well, but I feel like it could've used some more kimchi. The eggs on top were cooked perfectly and added good texture to the dish. The next dish to come out was the HK French toast. The bread was nice and fluffy which paired well with a nice generous drizzle of condensed milk. I enjoyed this a lot. We also ordered scallion pancake, pork barbecue, and bossam baos. These were ok, I would probably pass on a return visit. I felt like the meat in the baos was a little tough though they did have decent flavor. The last entree was the smoked salmon and avocado croissant; I really enjoyed this. It had a generous helping of smoked salmon and avocado as well. The saltiness of the salmon paired well with the creamy and fatty avocado. The croissant was also nice and flaky. It was also served with a house salad which had a nice drizzle of dressing on it too. For dessert we ordered a Black Sesame Souffle Pancake. This was SO good. A few months ago I visited a place in Princeton that specialized in these Japanese-style pancakes and Tasty Junction's version was so much more enjoyable. I loved that it was served with a healthy scoop of ice cream. The pancake was airy and had a bounce to it. Each bite was so good and made even better with the ice cream. I'd definitely come back just for the pancakes. All in all Tasty Junction is a great spot tucked away in Glen Rock

One thing I really liked is how customizable the menu is. You can choose different creams and ice cream flavors on top - they have a great variety, including strawberry, chocolate, vanilla, taro, ube, and more. The service was great. Everyone was very kind and welcoming, and they let us know that the Japanese soufflé pancakes take about 15 minutes to prepare, which I was completely fine with since they're made fresh. The ambiance is chill and quiet. The café is tucked away on the side of the street - I actually missed it the first time and had to circle back. We were lucky to find street parking right in front, though there aren't many spots available. As for the pancakes themselves, I thought they were just okay. They're made with four eggs, and you can definitely taste them. That said, my daughter absolutely loved them, so it may just come down to personal preference.

    My friend loves this place and maybe it was an odd night but...would not repeat…read more Spring rolls, so oil logged you could physically squeeze them and oil would pool on the bottom of the container. Crepe? An amalgamation of textures that likely shouldn't exist? Soggy mushy texturally just unappetizing and wet, the bottom of the container had a solid coat of water on it so everything inside was just mushy. Green curry, curry flavor good but that's where it ended for me. The tofu was totally mushy. Lychee juice, I love lychee but this tasted artificial and very watered down. We did door dash so I can't speak on service or ambiance but my friend will have to enjoy this on their own

    Our visit was a mixed bag of some highs and major lows. I'm not sure there was anything that wowed…read moreus to entice a return visit any time soon but if you find yourself here, I can at least recommend the massaman curry and pad woon sen noodles. The massaman curry here is insanely creamy and tasty, with a hearty helping of vegetables. We ordered it with tofu, which came in cubes of the soft, unfried variety. Paired with rice, this was a winning dish. The pad woon sen - a savory glass noodle dish - can also be ordered with one's choice of protein. We liked it well enough with the chicken, and found it to be well-seasoned. Our server brought us some hot chili sauce on the side, and the spice lover in me was only too happy to heap spoonfuls of it over everything. Our interactions with servers were...interesting. One of our servers seemed rather terse and cold, while the other hovered a little more than I would've liked. When he saw me taking out my camera, he reached in to take my fork. He used it and his bare hands to rearrange our appetizers, seemingly for the pictures. It was a raised brow moment for us, as was finding that our coconut shrimp neither tasted remotely close to coconut and that it was still frozen in the middle. We pointed this out to our server, who apologized and took it back. But instead of bringing out a fresh plate, it turned out they'd just refried our original pieces, even the ones we'd half eaten. Much as I'd hate to raise alarms for such a small and homely business, we couldn't help but wonder about whether it was sanitary to recook eaten food in their deep fryer. This restaurant has been described in lots of other reviews as a hole-in-the-wall, which feels true. While it's more spacious on the inside than it seems on the outside, there's a smallness and intimacy to the restaurant. The menu is also fairly short and streamlined to a few categories. There's no dedicated parking lot, but we were able to find free street parking without too much trouble.

We were craving some sort of Asian cuisine, and I had had DD Thai bookmarked to try, so we headed to the restaurant. The small place was tucked away in a strip mall, just off the highway. We parked the car and managed to get into the restaurant without slipping on the massive amounts of black ice that had accumulated in the lot. The restaurant's decor was lacking in that the booths on the right side of the place had ripped upholstery and the seating on the left side was in better condition, but mismatched. Despite the furniture, the woman running the front of the house was very sweet, and the food was great! We started with the Curry Puff appetizer. The 3 large dumplings had been completely stuffed with a sweet chicken curry, while the fried, flaky exterior was a nice golden brown color and not at all greasy. My Pad See Ew with Chicken was very flavorful and perfectly cooked, though it could have used a tad more sauce. My companion felt the same about his Drunken Noodles, which he similarly scarfed up, though he would have preferred more spice. I have now tried several Thai restaurants in Bergen County and many of them have fallen short on delivering the flavorful impact I would expect from the cuisine. However, DD Thai was definitely one of the better ones in the area!
