This is one of my son and I favorite viet noodle house in the east bay. We have been coming here to eat for years. The boss is really friendly and always make us feel really welcome. They have a lot of options from vermicelli noodles, bun Bo hoe, and bahn mi sandwiches. They are all delicious. We love coming here to eat. read more

Honestly the bEST BUN RIEU IN EAST BAY such good flavor and they don't put a boat load of tomatoes. I really enjoyed the fresh spring rolls here and the shrimp and veggies over rice. I would have to say that the spring rolls were fresh and had really good flavor. We had the one with pork and it was delicious. You could tell the veggies were fresh and had a nice crisp to them. The service here was great the staff are really friendly and try to get to know you. The place is a tad dirty and the floor was constantly slippery. I don't mind a place that is slightly dirty but I didn't like how the floor was slippery everywhere. read more

Oh my goodness. I never thought I'll be a fan of bun rieu. Most places I've been to that has this noodle dish is generally very tomatoey and takes away all other flavors. It's usually very tangy and too sour for my liking. However! The broth for bun rieu here is saltier and flavorful with hints of tomato. It includes 2-3 shrimps along with diced up eggs and some fish cakes I believe. It comes with extra cilantro on the side and just shred the whole thing and dump it in there! You do not need to add additional seasoning. I'm a huge fan of bbh an nam in San Jose. Saigon house will be my to go place for bun rieu since I'm too lazy to drive to San Jose for bbh. I came last night for take out and I'm already craving for the broth. Also, the restaurant is pretty tiny. But the service is homey and the owner is EXTREMELY nice. He chats with all the customers and is genuinely happy to be serving his customers. I told him I found him via Yelp and his face lighted up. Melts my heart! I haven't tried their other dishes yet but I cannot recommend their bun rieu enough. Even if you are not a fan, get it. This will change your tastebuds on what bun rieu is like. For around $9 for a bowl, I think I need to head over there again. read more

It was good. Great service. Only has chili and Siracha on table. Have to ask for fish sauce. Soup had flavor like Chinese noodle house. Not Vietnamese. Would come again if in area. read more

Very big fuckin spider in the Thai tea that my niece was drinking, as she was drinking it she took out a spider leg from her mouth asking what it was, we poured it out to find a daddy long leg. Very fucking disgusting don't go here if you want spiders in your drink and probably food read more

Food: this place serves up amazingly savory goodness. I absolutely would recommend this place to anyone looking for a good bowl of Pho Ga in the area. The grilled shrimp and beef vermicelli is yummy too. Hubby loves the rice plates and likes to switch it up once in a while bc he knows it will be good regardless. Servings sizes are just the right size so you leave satisfied. Service: I would give this place 10 our of 5 stars if I could. Not just because the food come out fast but because of the overall quality of service. My hubby and I appreciate how the host/owner and servers makes it a point to remember our faces and food favorites. The main host Always has a smile and has genuine and kind interactions with the different guest. I once ordered a Thai tea that was too sweet, he noticed that I wasn't drinking it and offered to make it better. I loved the drink after. You need to make this place your staple go to Pho place :) read more

This place hit the spot tonight. I ordered the pork, egg roll & vermicelli combo; the egg roll was crispy and meaty, the pork was nice and tender with great flavor and the noodles were a perfect consistency. The cabbage, shredded carrot, green onion, cilantro salad is a great mixture with that dressing, or egg roll sauce, whatever it is. Great meal overall read more

You must try this place. I found it on Yelp, and don't understand why I've never heard about it before from friends.. The Food is Excellent, and the Owner is someone who truly cares about his customers, and goes above and beyond to treat you like Family. The first time here I went in to place my order to go. Placed my order paid and went outside to call my Sister, the Owner came outside (night) to see if I was ok, when I told him I was just talking to my Sister, and didn't want to be rude, he insisted that I came back inside and get a cup of hot tea while I waited because it was dark and cold outside. That was the start to many Fantastic meals... read more

Great service, decent prices and portions. I haven't tried a large amount of their menu selections, but the garlic noodles are really good! Really good pho! read more

Awesome Pho spot. Friendly service, great portions. Never disappointed, definitely recommend!

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!! I always come here every now and then and I'm not sure if he's the owner but the man that works there always converses with his customers and is very welcoming which I LOVE!! The food is still great too! Hits home! read more

Food is decent. Mom and I ordered Phi and the noodles were not cooked well. Reason for 2 star rating is because as we browsed the menu, our waiter was waiting right next to us to order. No space or room to breath! read more

Food was good - very tasty. No MSG. Servers were very friendly. I ordered the #21 combo beef noodle soup. Price was good: Large = $8.95. There are lots of parking space. Other suggestion: They need to bleach the chopsticks. read more

A good addition to San Leandro! The broth was piping hot for the entire meal which is impressive and also a necessity. Every sip of the soup is like the first sip. So soothing. The only bad thing is that it was a bit oily. The noodles were a bit stuck together and slightly chewy, but this wasn't a deal breaker. I got only beef balls and there was a generous amount. The garnish (bean sprouts, jalapeños, limes, mint) were fresh. Cilantro was already in the bowl. To get to the bathrooms, you have to walk outside the restaurant. Nice people who work here. You can tell by the furniture that it used to be a diner of some sort. read more

great food for the price. most things cost about the same as a chipotle burrito bowl. the menu also is much more extensive than your average vietnamese restaurant. you can get pho and bun bo hue, but there are so many other dishes that you can try! great for take out and also eating in. service is also good. will definitely be coming back here again. read more

Very friendly staff and excellent broth for the Pho soup! Small and quaint but still very welcoming and frequented by the neighboring community. Intimate and good food!!!! Really enjoyed dining at this restaurant! read more

Yelp description is not accurate or the place have not updated their hours. I placed a take out order at 7:50pm and yelp stated that the last order is to be placed by 8:15pm because they close at 9:00pm. Received a call at 8:00pm saying that they wouldn't prepare my order. Got my refund though. read more

I came here with family for lunch one day. A solid Vietnamese eatery in San Leandro. Thanks to my fellow Yelpers who found this place for me! As a vegetarian, I was impressed with having a selection since this is a Vietnamese restaurant. I had vermicelli noodles & split the tofu banh mi. Noodles come in medium and large bowls. Pay the extra $1 for the larger bowl. For a table of 4, the bill totaled around $50 including tax and tip. Plus points for parking and taking credit card. Bathroom was strangely outside of the restaurant, but not a problem. The portions here are ample and while it's nothing fancy, I value the great service and attention from the server. I will be back. read more

Missed two exits trying to get here. Went the loooooooong way and it was totally worth it. Good pho. Ordered extra meat on the side and a pork Banh Mi to go. Broth was great. Meat was tasty. Male was very personable and tried to engage my lil girl. We enjoyed the overall experience and this review is pretty much so I remember where this place is so we can go back. Lol. Only con I can say is, the large isn't very large in comparison to other places we have been. (We love our pho!) but I shared with my kiddo and the whole bowl was still just enough for us both. My thoughts are quality over quantity. The banh mi was to go so I haven't tried it yet but it's pretty large in size. read more

Nice little Vietnamese restaurant in a small shopping center in west San Leandro. Good service, Tasty pho. Decent parking in their lot or on the street. Acceptable décor. I'd eat here again anytime. read more

Love their shrimp and string bean! owner super nice love the food and Coustmer service

Really wanted to try this place as i live just a few blocks away. I went in, placed an order to go for my family and was told it would be a 20 minute wait. I thought it was a bit long for 3 bowls of soup, but i figured i could go next door and get a quick drink while I waited so no big deal. Came back 20 minutes later to find out my food was not ready, but 2 tables with people sat AFTER I ordered my meal to go already had their food, which just happened to also be pho of some kind. Sorry to say, but that's a deal breaker. With at least 4 other Vietnamese restaraunts within 5 minutes of this place i will be sure to go somewhere where the service is at least acceptable and the food is good. read more

The pho here is underwhelming. The soup was bland. There weren't many pho places in San Leandro when I was growing up there, so I was excited to find this place but it was a let down. $9.95 for their "large" bowl of pho, but it was more like a medium. Also ordered two iced coffees and a Thai tea, but they completely forgot about our table and served others first. I cancelled it and they were apologetic. Two stars is for the service. Food is only okay. read more

Finally had the chance to try and this is my new favorite in the SL area. The shrimp rolls and Bun are my measuring stick (non Pho). Very good portions and tasty and good noodles used. Big plus for mixing up the bun choice with the pork sausage and egg rolls. Nice, funny owner and loves to take care of his regular and new customers. Definitely will be going more. read more

I love this place. I order from here pretty frequently because the food is so good and comforting. I just called a min ago, sounding horrible with a cold and goes, "do you have a cold?" I said yep, he goes "okay after you eat my soup you'll feel all better." Literally put a smile on my face. Thank you!! read more

Wow what a find! With this cold weather and much needed rain in the Bay Area, I was really craving some bun rieu. My bf lives near R&D and while they do have bun bo hue, they don't have bun rieu. Did a quick search on Yelp and we found this place nearby and it was well worth driving over a couple more miles! The decor here is pretty new and clean since I guess they just recently opened. The furniture is a bit mix and matched and we were sat in a tight corner, but it wasn't a huge deal. We ordered the nem nuong goi coun, a bun rieu for myself and the bf got a bun bo hue. I was so excited about the nem nuong spring rolls because it looked like they put the crispy fried skin inside of the rolls just like Brodards did. However, when it came out, they were very small and my boyfriend said he thought the meat was spam lol. At least the meat was grilled and it was freshly made? My boyfriend's bun bo hue came out next and while it was lacking in the color from the red chili oil, and therefore, spiciness, there was a strong lemongrass flavor that helped the broth stand out. At first we weren't that impressed with his order, but the lemongrass flavor became more and more addicting. My bun rieu came out last and was the star of our dinner and will recommend this to anyone. The waitress was also nice enough to bring out two clean bowls in case we wanted to share our two noodles. At first appearance there is a pretty thick layer of oiliness on top but it's actually from the crab paste used to make the soup and meatballs. It actually looks and tastes very similar to my mom's homemade bun rieu. We enjoyed every bit of our two noodle dishes, but we had to ask for the veggies because they forgot to bring them out to us. Even then, they just brought out the standard bean sprouts, japaleno peppers, lime, and basil and did not include the cabbage usually eaten with the bun bo hue. All in all I would say I would give a 3.5 stars but will round up giving them the benefit of the doubt to iron out some of the kinks of being newly opened. Their menu is more extensive than the average Vietnamese restaurant and they have an entire page of vegetarian dishes which I am excited to try next time. read more

Not complaining about service or flavor but for $9 I didn't feel like we were given much food. More than half of the togo container was vegetables, 3/4 rice and only 3 small pieces of beef, 3 shrimp and 1 spring roll. Would have been nice to get more meat. The togo container was mostly rice and salad. read more

It's close to my house. The price is reasonable. The food is good. The proprietor is warm and gregarious. We wouldn't have survived early parenthood without frequent take out orders. 5 stars. read more

Went in because yelp reviews talked about this garlic noodle spot course I had to buy it and my husband said it was AWESOME. I said can I have some veggie fry rice and the owner asked if I wanted tofu I was like yes please and my fry rice was delicious. I'm going back. This was my first time here. The owner who took my order was really cool even gave me suggestions about X-Mas, he sure does have great customer service skills. read more

The beef noodle soup is very tasty without being too salty! They have all the fresh fixins and a spicy pepper house sauce that is sooo good! It is hot but flavorful and addicting! The fresh rice rolls are awesome... I always order the dipping sauce with NO Peanuts. Service is fast and friendly. This place is homey and welcoming. I hate they are closed on Wednesday's which is usually when I want some of their yummy soup. I have also enjoyed their garlic noodles and their chicken bahmi sandwich. The food is always hot and fresh and I will continue to frequent them! They are close to my house and always leave me wanting more. I always bring a friend, my kids or hubby and everyone is always impressed and satisfied. read more

Saigon House - Combination Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - San Leandro, California

Decent selection of food on the menu. It is a small corner restaurant in the Manor area. Smallish restaurant with mismatch chairs and tables and little knicks knacks on the window sill. Place is pretty clean but notice 2 flies flying around. The owner was very welcoming. Ordered to go, I had the grilled pork banh mi sandwich, the egg roll, the combination noodle soup, grilled beef over rice, vermicelli with grilled pork and vermicelli with grilled chicken. Portion size are huge! The grilled pork was on the sweet side but it was very tasty. The grilled chicken for the vermicelli had a lot of chicken in it but it was somewhat bland. The grilled beef over rice had a hint of lemongrass. The banh mi was good but wished the bread was crunchier and not soggy. Did not try the pho but mom enjoyed it and said that the broth was good. Prices are decent and affordable. Another place for pho in San Leandro! read more
