    YUMMM. My brother took me here for lunch last week told stories of how he's been coming here for years, even when it required a commute from his El Segundo office for lunch back in the day. In just this first experience, I ould already see why. We went for a very late lunch (close to 3pm) and the place was still quite busy. The pho here...it just, well HITS. So satisfying - sheer perfection from broth to toppings, I simply can't explain. They offer different sizes, so take consideration especially if you're like me and wanted to also try an appetizer (cha gio/egg rolls) or add toppings (meatballs), as I got full fast, and in hindsight could have done with the 'Small' over 'Regular,' considering. Vietnamese coffee was also fantastic - the rocket fuel I needed, and served in a to-go cup which ended up being exactly what I did.

    The vibes are immaculate. If you really love Vietnamese food (and not just pho), you need to visit Saigon Dish in Lawndale. The food comes out hot at lightning speed. My favorite dish is their Bun Bo Hue without the ham hock. Surprisingly, it's not spicy but tangy, which suits my preference. Tip: Pay with cash for a discount.

    An Asian guy recommended this place to me so I knew it would be awesome and he was right . This is the best Vietnamese restaurant I've tried in Southern California by far. The pho soup is rich and flavorful, perfectly balanced with high quality sliced filet mignon. Their Vietnamese style pad Thai was also amazing and a standout, not dry like Thai restaurants serve. The oil that they add to it makes all the difference! You know a restaurant is doing something right when you have to sign into an iPad to get on the waiting list by the front door. 5 stars all the way!

    A great local spot to satisfy your Vietnamese cravings! We stopped by for an early Friday dinner and found the place already busy, but luckily a table opened up for us. I like to switch things up between pho and bun rieu, and that night I went with the tomato-based noodle soup. It was a bit mild at first, but adding extra shrimp paste made it just right. I also appreciated that the staff had no problem blanching the bean sprouts upon request just the way I like them. My husband ordered the grilled pork chop with rice, and they were happy to swap out the shredded pork for a fried egg. We also shared an order of shrimp cakes to start. The food came out quickly, service was prompt, and overall it was a great experience. We'll definitely be back to try more dishes on the menu.

    Got here about 12:15 PM and the parking lot was already pretty full. I lucked out and someone was leaving, so I was able to park near the entrance. The dining room was packed with lunch time diners. I only had to wait about 5 minutes for a table to be cleaned. I noticed most of the people eating were either Asian or Hispanic. That is usually a good sign and didn't fail this observation. I order a regular size filet mignon pho with noodles and a bottle of Bia Saigon beer. The pho broth was spot on, noodles were the perfect consistency and filet mignon was tender and tasty. The Bai Saigon lager was refreshing on this warm day. Staff is very friendly and efficient at helping the diners and quickly turning around the tables. I did order pork belly banh mi and beef banh mi sandwiches to go to eat for dinner tonight. They have a very extensive menu, so could be challenging on deciding what to order.

    I have been searching high and low for a Bo Kho with a thicker roux like broth, it's how I was introduced to Vietnamese beef stew in Virginia. Saigon Dish is the first restaurant I've found near LA that prepares Bo Kho that way. My dramatic self stopped the employee to tell him how long it's been since I've had a Bo Kho that reminded me of home. Although it was sweeter than what I'm used to, it was still delicious. I was lucky enough to come in on a Saturday when the Banh Xeo was available. The crepe was light and crispy (now this dish I'm actually used to being a bit sweeter) but the nuoc mam really balanced everything out. I contemplated taking a container of the fish sauce home but I know what happens if that spills in your car. Anyways, this is one of those restaurants where you want to come hungry so you can eat 3 meals.

    One of the best pho restaurants I've been to...and I've been to plenty. Portions were big and flavors were spot on. You should expect to wait a few minutes to get a table. It's that good!!!

    The Baseline: For a Vietnamese cafe the Pho must be quality, the accompaniment add-in ingredients must be fresh, the meats must be well prepared, and menu must have authentic Vietnamese flavors. Food: I had the 11 tonight which was Pho with lean beef and brisket. This compares great against the most popular #13a. Great meal tonight and the spring rolls were awesome. Service: Great service from the wait staff this evening. Ambiance: The restaurant is clean and busy on this visit. There was a line waiting out the door.

    Decent place for pho! You can tell it's a local spot -- a lot of the people working here know their regulars who come here so that was nice to see! Eggrolls: sad that they didn't come out freshly fried (but that meant that they came out very quickly) but flavor of the fillings was great! My preference for the fish sauce is a bit more funk with chilies but honestly no complaints other than the fact that it didn't come out piping hot. Pho filet mignon: got the regular size which came with a decent amount of beef and a GENEROUS amount of rice noodles. Broth was nice, clean, hot, and light but lacked in the flavor of spices but pretty good and if I was in the area I'd come back to have pho here.

    still remains my favorite spot for pho and yet to find a spot that tops it for me. the broth is always so fresh and fragrant. everything comes out so quick and service is always amazing. portions are very filling, whether it's the apps or the entrees. i truly can't find anything to complain about. id wait hours for this

    Came for lunch on a Thursday and it was packed! Didn't have to wait too long though and they also have a yelp waitlist. Ordered the bun rieu which was delicious. Broth was savory and they're very generous with the portions - gave a lot of meat and noodles in a large bowl. Also got the spring rolls which were good - meat a little dry in spring rolls.

    We ordered the Special Combination Pho and the Special Combo Rice Platter. The pho had a clear light broth that was tasty. Rice noodles cooked well. I did think the meat portion was quite skimpy despite ordering a large size pho. The combo rice platter was a nice way to try a bit of everything. The short ribs were tender. Came with a hearty broth as well. Food came out super fast and the servers were nice. Good place for takeout as well. Giving it 4 stars since you can get more meat for your buck elsewhere! Would be open to coming back if I'm in the area.

    Ask the Community - Saigon Dish

    Do you guys offer party tray options (ie can I order 40 egg rolls ahead of time)?

    Yes absolutely. Just give me a couple hours advance notice. We’re currently closed and will reopen Monday Aug. 5

    Do they take apple pay?

    We accept most majot types of payment including Apple Pay. We also offer 5% discount for CASH payments. The only thing we don’t take is EBT

    What is the "low carb option", what do they give you, I cannot find any description. Do they just not give you rice or is there veg or salad instead?

    When following a specific diet, individuals are typically aware of what they can and cannot consume. In the case of a 'low carb' diet, there might not be specific descriptions since it can be customized based on personal preferences. I would suggest… 

    As of April 5, 2021 does saigon dish have outdoor dining? do they take reservations?

    Yes both outdoor and indoor dining areas are available. You can make reservations if you want to but you don't have to.

    What type of fish do they use?

    It's Catfish.

    Do they have heat lamps outside?

    I was there last week and they did not have heat lamps. The pho warmed me up!

    Does Pho here have MSG?

    MSG syndrome is a debunked racist anti-Asian myth used against Asian restaurants. Sadly, racist marketing was so effective it's still around even if there's no scientific support.

    What items do not have nuts?

    Most items do no have nuts since I have a peanut allergy myself. Peanuts are usually added as a topping at the end of food preparation so you can always tell the server to leave it out. Just stay away from the peanut dipping sauce for the spring… 

    Is their pho gluten free?

    Our pho is 100% gluten free but just don't add the hoisin( dark bottle) sauce

    Will Saigon Dish do separate checks?

    Yes, just tell them at the counter what your part was. They ring you up by table number.

    Is there anything vegan?

    As Paulina and Art have said, there's a vegetarian section on the menu and #49 (vegetables with pho in vegetable broth) appears to be vegan.

I was able to grab a table immediately around 11am before the afternoon lunch rush set in. Thank goodness because it got busy really fast. The restaurant itself isn't very big so there aren't many tables. We got garlic fries to start with. Ordered it because other tables all ordered it, must be good. And yes they were very good. Perfectly crispy with a touch of garlic. I didn't love the lychee drink we got. We got the bun bo hue and it was surprisingly very very good. It's got all the staple pieces even the blood cubes. My friend got a shaken beef and she devoured the whole plate lol. Also got a pho and she enjoyed it too. The food is so so good here and I can see why they have a second location. Very authentic and just good affordable Vietnamese food that hits! We left the restaurant and we are standing around outside because one of my friends ordered a sandwich to go. 10 minutes passed and the waiter comes out and asks who dropped a $100. I knew immediately it was me while I was fumbling my around trying to pay the bill. They could've kept it, I'm so impressed with their honesty and integrity.

It's casual, laid‑back, and nothing over the top, just clean tables, friendly faces, and food that hits exactly where it needs to. My experience with the service here is the kind you appreciate without even thinking about it, warm, quick, and genuinely attentive. No fuss, no attitude, just people who make sure you're taken care of and your meal lands hot and fresh. Pho House leans into what makes a Vietnamese eatery great: flavorful pho broth, fresh herbs, and bowls that feel like comfort in liquid or dry form depending on what you order. The broth has that deep, slow‑simmered richness that tells you they're doing it right. Noodles come soft and silky, and the toppings are fresh enough to brighten every bite. The spring rolls are crisp, fresh, and exactly what you want before diving into a big bowl of pho. And that sauce, the one that perfectly complements the rolls, ties everything together with a sweet‑savory punch that makes you go back for another dip. I went with the house special, and that's the move. Loaded, aromatic, and full of flavor, it's the kind of bowl that feels like a full experience. Every spoonful hits with depth from the broth, brightness from the herbs, and that satisfying mix of textures that make the house special... well, special. Pairing it with the spring rolls was the perfect combo, fresh crunch before the warm comfort. Overall this place is just a tidy, welcoming space where you can sit back, enjoy your food, and not feel rushed. It's the definition of a casual neighborhood pho spot done right. Miguel C.

I had just told them that I was very picky about pho, especially recently. A lot of my go-to spots have been disappointing lately so I was craving a good bowl of pho - one that really hits the spot and Oh My Pho did just that. The moment we pulled into the parking lot I was like, "I have a good feeling about this place." I walked in and was immediately greeted with a deep aromatic smell of pho in the air. All 3 of us ordered their Pho Combination which has it all: Sliced brisket, sliced eye round, tripe, tendon, meatballs. We also ordered their shaken beef rice platter to share. Before digging into my bowl, I took a long deep smell of the broth as if I was taking the fattest bong rip known to mankind. It only got better from there though because the broth tasted as good as it smelled. Incredibly flavorful. All the flavors were balanced -- salty, sweet, umami. The noodles were cooked almost perfect (I like my noodles very al dente), but the doneness was definitely the kind that would suit everyone's preference. The shaken beef was delicious too. The meat was very tender and they mixed fries in which isn't typical/common, but it was really good! The rice was made perfectly too, at least to my preference. Only (minor) complaints were my bowl not being hot enough which is funny because I like my food cold, but certain things need to be piping hot like noodle soup. Also there wasn't very much meat in the shaken beef dish. Service was great and the staff was very friendly. I'm pretty far from OMP, but will definitely come back again soon with my friends since they're regulars here!

Their filet is very tender. The meatballs are sourced elsewhere as they taste different from the norm in a good way. The brisket cut wasn't too thick. Their tendon is very easy to eat as most places can tend to overly hard. Good amount of tripe as well. The portions of meat given were a lot. There are only 2 things which could make this a solid 5/5 bowl. Hopefully owner reads this. The broth has to be served piping hot. Like burn under the gums temperature. After getting to the second half of finishing the meal , you get fatigued because the soup isn't hot enough which makes it harder to finish. Secondly, the broth needs just a little more salt content. The broth is good but just missing the "ommph" trifecta.
