We got takeout from here today and overall enjoyed it! We started with the Vietnamese pork egg rolls as a side and they were a great call. Crispy and flavorful. For mains we got the chicken chow fun, which was interesting. The chow fun came rolled up rather than the flat noodles I'm used to! Different, but yummy. The only small miss was the chicken being a little overcooked, otherwise it was good. We also got the pepper steak and that one was good. Each dish ran about $15, which feels fair for the portions. Also they have fish and chips and fries on the menu as appetizers, which is a fun curveball for a Vietnamese spot. Not what I expected but has variety. read more

Excellent service and staff. Very spacious place. Food came out very fast. Give this place a 4 stars. The black pepper beef udon was very delicious. It is rich and flavorful. Highly recommend getting this and sharing it though as it could be a little rich if that's all you're doing. Also I do wish the egg was over easy instead overcooked. Also ordered the spring roll combo set. Personally I think this item fell short. The meat was tough, and not very flavorful. The eggrolls were also not cooked long enough and didn't have a nice crisp. It was just okay. I plan to come back and try other noodle bowls though. Seems like maybe the bowls are better. read more

Three adults and two kids. We crammed into a booth and enjoyed delicious Vietnamese food. The combination bowls were large and very fresh. Only criticism is we prefer the egg roll to be cut up rather than in long pieces which are impossible to eat without picking them up. The spring rolls with peanut sauce were also appreciated, among some of the best we've had. Highly recommend this restaurant. Our service was fast and very responsive to requests. read more

Had the rare steak pho and spicy noodle bowl, they were delicious. Good service and nice interior

I've seen garlic butter noodles on Vietnamese restaurant menus a lot but never ordered it. One day at Saigon Bowl, I ordered the garlic butter noodles and they were quite tasty. I shared a plate with my bf but it was a lot of food for two people. The noodles were cooked well and just very flavorful. It was overbearing in garlic flavor or too oily due to the butter. It was pretty great balance. I saw the rice bowls pass by and those look tasty and will need to try next time I'm here. Overall, there's plenty of seating. It was kinda slow when we came here at like 3pm but still had people. read more

I came here expecting just some sesame chicken. Apparently here, that means a whole experience. First things first; The whole get-up inside comes off as a higher class restaurant from the moment you walk inside. We got there before the lunch rush, but were still greeted like high class citizens. Got to our table and drinks almost immediately afterwards. Every server was so incredibly friendly, I have a hard time trying to make a joke on it. The food got to us piping hot, and this sesame chicken may look like your usual Chinese takeout, the first bite I took was nowhere near that. The food had a flavor of legitimate freshness, not just reheated and thrown onto a bowl. Eveb the veggies had a fresh and crispy bite to it all. Definitely a great place to go, don't let the dead mall vibes of the outside fool you. It's pretty amazing. read more

Extremely disappointed. 2nd time they forget an item for my take out order. I called 5-10x's and no answer. There's no other way to get in contact with the restaurant when they don't the phone. No customer wants to order a take out and have drive back because a restaurant forgot their order. I drove back and their closed. SMH - if you order take out; check they included everything before leaving. read more

Yummy! Rare steak PHO knocked my cold out of the world! SO GOOD! Also it was ready when i wanted it to be picked up. read more

My husband and I love this restaurant and are happy it's near one of our places of work. When we carpool together, we usually decide to get dinner or boba from this restaurant. Their food is great and they're recently redid their menu. Even with the change, things are still great! Staff is always very attentive and kind, as well. We recommend their pho (they give a generous amount of meat!). read more

I ate here with my husband and son. Good food and very fast service. They have a huge menu with tons of options. I highly recommend giving this place a try. read more

Today I stopped in to try out my favorite cuisine, Vietnamese. Saigon bowl is tucked away in a large shopping center in Thornton just off of I-25. The location was VERY spacious with options to seat large parties. Staff was friendly and attentive to refills and taking orders in good timing. The menu has MANY options with pictures for each item on the entire menu, very awesome those not familiar with Vietnamese cuisine. I ordered the Shaking Beef (Com Bò Lúc Lăc) This has always been one of my favorites dishes. It gets its name from vigorously shaking the pan to evenly cook the meat. This dish always has the most tender soft beef to taste. Comes with a side of rice that is a nice pairing with the veggies and beef. I will be back to try more options soon! read more

Ordered online since we had some family in town, got a text message 25 minutes later saying the order was ready. Turned out to be a 45 minute wait because somehow our order "didn't go through" also when we got our dish at home (rice paper wrap) the fried shrimp paste wasn't even sliced..just a log... they also didn't give us our rice papers to roll our own spring rolls..rather make the trip to Saigon Basil from here on out. read more

I'm Vietnamese, obviously, and I'm disappointed Asian dad in some of the staff. I am not a pho-magic for Saigon Bowl. Three pictures included: oily pho with flavor you wouldn't kick out of bed, bean sprout quality control... questionable at best and don't get me started on protein portions. Mind you our servers only come out to the dining room area periodically. They must be new or I'm just projecting my disappointment. On a brighter note from a not to so bright pho restaurant in the Denver county area: there looks like a karaoke room in the back. Seems like a fun nighttime spot to party with friends. Their pho might not cure your hangover tho. 2 stars.. more like 1.5 read more

Great customer service. Very friendly environment! Food was very tasteful, with lots of flavor!!

Service: Okay no joke, the service here absolutely sucks. We came in with a 15% coupon. See attached photo that says "Show this...for 15% off" so when it's time to pay we showed one of the restaurant staffs the coupon. She seemed perfectly okay with it and explained to our waiter that we have a coupon for 15% discount as he approached to handle our bill. Our waiter refused to honor it for some reason despite his female coworker being perfectly fine with the coupon. Our waiter proceeded to argue with us and say that they do not accept the coupon unless we have a physical printout. No, it says "Show this post" right from their Google page. I even zoomed in to show our waiter the fine print. He still firmly refused to honor the coupon and has a rude attitude at this point. He asked me where I got the coupon from and I explained it's on their Google page, posted by their owner. Lol. He then spent several minutes on the phone with someone, then came back took a photo of the coupon displayed on our phone screen and spent several more minutes on the phone. After which he came back and said okay yeah we give you the 15% discount but next time you need the paper. Lol so ruining our lunch mood and being stubborn over a $3 discount that they did in fact put out and do not honor is definitely not a good first impression. Food: My combination noodle bowl was delicious and I was impressed by portion and flavors. Their egg rolls were one of the best tasting when judged against Vietnamese restaurants in the area. Pho - good portion, but really strange tasting broth. The extra sweetness is not in a good way either. It's sweet in a Chinese herbal way, which I have never tasted in pho broth anywhere else. To the owner: Your staff flock together and talk loudly in Vietnamese on why they get low or no tips. Their conversations are loud enough that Vietnamese customers like myself inside the restaurant can easily hear them. However their attitude and the way they argue with customers as I have seen, as my first time here, makes it crystal clear why people don't tip and why these bad reviews keep coming in. We enjoyed what we ordered, but refuse to go back to the lousy atmosphere and rude service. Also, for future customers, call in first to ensure they will honor coupons that they themselves put out, because for the one currently live on their Google page, they are not honoring it. read more

I wanted to share an updated review because I really like the food at the Saigon Bowl. My only complaint last time was not enough vegetables with my Pho and this time around we got more then enough of beautiful fresh veggies. So this is what we ordered the seafood pho, garlic and butter shrimp with corn and sausage, stemmed dumplings, and chicken spring rolls. Everything is delicious and we will order from here again. We did order Uber. read more

Entered to takeout order online an hour early, and it still wasn't ready when I arrived to pick up. Had to wait for an additional 15 minutes which was a bit inconvenient. The eggrolls were good, I got the Tom Yum soup, and it was a huge portion. Seafood in it was okay and not the most flavorful. I'd try something different next time. read more

We have been coming to this restaurant since I was little, we came to the Denver location years before the Thornton location opened. me and my partner came to eat here on Wednesday the 6th the total for our meal was $44, before tip. We ended up tipping $10. Which was over 20%. Then, this morning, I see a charge on my card for $58.50. Which, even with tip would not be the correct amount. on top of the $10 tip I had tipped they added an extra $4.50 to the tip. (now reading the reviews I understand that I'm not the only person that this has happened to.) I called the restaurant and asked to speak to the manager. The manager proceeded to tell me that they would not give me a refund for the extra money that they tipped on my card and I would have to drive over there and they would give me my money in cash And free Boba. Like seriously? The manager admitted that his staff " messes up" when putting in the tips at the end of the day. I explained to him how that was unacceptable and I still wanted my refund for the money that they took out of my card, he proceeded to say that I would not get a refund and that they just mess up sometimes. It's really disappointing. I've been coming here for pretty much half of my life and then they do something like this. Safe to say that I will never be coming back here again . read more

This is my favorite Vietnamese place. Everything is good, especially the egg rolls and combination noodle bowl. Would definitely recommend. Nice ambiance and service as well. read more

I ordered delivery from here after work one night. The food came fast-within 45 minutes- and tasted great. I ordered the combo noodle bowl and it came with grilled beef, pork, shrimp, noodles, salad, egg rolls, and fish sauce with red pepper flakes. The combo noodle bowl was a good size and lasted me 2 servings. Everything tasted delicious. This will be my new go-to local Thai spot and I'm glad that I found it! read more

The manager gave himself a 18 dollar tip without us knowing about it until we checked the receipt and found out he has been charging us extra for a tip read more

Boys wanted to go out for dinner on a Thursday evening and suggested to go to this place. My 1st time there and their 2nd. You walk in and the place is really nice and big. Decor is nice and place looks pretty classy. We were greeted and seated immediately. Their menu is huge and everything looked and sounded delicious. We placed our order and waited. While waiting, they played pretty good music. Our wait was not too long and our food came out. Just between the 3 of us, there was a lot of food. Lol We ordered a seafood curry, combination plate, shrimp paste rice paper wrap, chicken pad thai, and the egg roll appetizer. Everything was hot and fresh. I'd say everything was delicious except for the pad thai. The pad thai was just ok and I didn't really care for it. I would definitely come back to this place and try some more stuff. read more

Ambiance, food, service! All amazing! We had chicken pho and noodle bowl! Will be going again!

Oh my goodness. I can't believe there's actually a good, authentic Vietnamese restaurant so close to us. I had very low expectations because, I don't know, it's so hit or miss in Denver. However, I'm glad we came in because everything was so good. We way over ordered for the two of us, but that just means we have plenty for leftovers. The combination spring rolls had such a variety of meats, all seasoned and cooked perfectly. Don't skimp on the veggies when you make your rolls, it's so fresh and delicious. Fish sauce was on point. I got the bun bo hue. I was scared to, because I've had some craptastic bowls here in Denver. The server convinced me to try it and I'm so glad I did. The broth is a bit lighter than what I normally like, but it's still authentic. I'm missing my pigs blood lol, but I understand most people here wouldn't eat that. It's still a solid bowl when I'm craving something home cooked! My husband got the mi or egg noodles combo. The broth was also really good, light, not too salty or sweet. There was meat balls or bo vien in it which was weird lol, but still good. I would definitely recommend it. We will for sure come back to try the other dishes. If you like Saigon Basil, you'll love this place. I actually think the broth based dishes are much better than Saigon basil! Gotta try the pho next :) Also, I had to dock one star because service is a bit slow here so try to plan for that. Not sure if they are understaffed or what, but at one point in our meal, there wasn't a single server walking around. I'm watching this guy awkwardly look around because he's ready to order and no one is in the room to take it. What?! read more
