Heard great things so we stopped in, all in all it's okay. The pho I had was good and it's price point is right at what you'd expect from pho. It had a flavorful broth and I really liked it, the Saigon red was really good and the mojito lacked mint flavor. I think the mint is chopped and not muddled. The eggrolls were okay, the dip wasn't to my taste and was really salty, but meh. My sister in-law ordered the yellow chicken curry and she didn't like it at all, was sweet no heat at all. Coconut curry with just the sweet milk flavor and the fire chicken was fried flavorless chicken. The garlic noodles are bomb though. All in all it's okay. read more

It is a busy restaurant (for Thursday at dinner time) but service should not be compromised. My husband set with an empty 1st soda glass until we left the restaurant, our waitstaff never ask if he wanted a refill. Our starter soup was room temperature. My salmon was good but my husband's lemongrass chicken garlic noodle was okay. He said that it would probably be better if the meat wasn't so dry. read more

Saigon Kitchen - Leftover sizzling salmon - Vietnamese Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

This used to be a really good restaurant. Prices went up and quality wet down. We paid $60 for a single entree and a rice dish. We had water. The shrimp was overcooked and rubbery. The filet was medium well and tough to eat (we ordered it medium rare). Not sure how someone can ruin a filet but they managed to. read more

Always a favorite to stop in for fresh and innovative Vietnamese. The ahi spring rolls are new and extremely tasty. The pho always simple pleasure. The banh mi on a crisp French roll with balanced salty sweet sour meat and toppings. read more

It's been about five years since I've been to Saigon Kitchen and today my husband and I decided to come for a late lunch. It was pretty empty when we arrived which was great because we were starving. We were greeted right away and given some menus to look over and some glasses of water. After a few minutes we decided on some pork egg rolls for an appetizer. For our main courses my husband ordered the firecracker shrimp and I ordered the lemongrass shrimp. We asked that the egg rolls come out first. Our eggs rolls came pretty quick and were so hot. We had to wait a few minute to eat them, but they were very good. Our food followed soon after, but not at the same time. Mine came out first and a few minutes later my husbands. We obviously want to eat together so I didn't start until he had his. It went downhill from here unfortunately. For over $20 a plate we both were shocked at how small the portions were. Our shrimp in both dishes was so over cooked and dry. My rice was over cooked as well. My husbands food was supposed to be spicy, but even I ate a bite and it had not only no spice but no real flavor at all. Everything was so bland. Our experiences years ago were definitely very different. We left bummed and hungry since neither one of us finished our meals. Bummer. Decor was nice and location clean. Again, service was great. Two stars for service and egg rolls. read more

Excellent experience. Atmosphere was warm and welcoming, Service and food were both upper eschalon! Had the pleasure of meeting the owner who really has done a great job in creating multiple experiences with the restaurant and lounge next door for those looking to grab a drink and enjoy a kid free environment. We will definitely be here often read more

This is my first time passing through this part of Arizona. The food, atmosphere, and service were all excellent! I'd heard good things about Saigon Kitchen from the airbnb hosts, so I decided to check it out. Food: We had the tropical salad, which was delicious and a great way to start our meal. The vegetables were top-notch, having been freshly picked. A lemongrass, filet mignon, and shrimp on garlic noodles appetizer followed. In terms of flavor, the lemongrass fillet was spot on. For a Vietnamese disk, it was perfect. The proteins were excellent in every way: in terms of quality, preparation, and flavor. We really enjoyed the garlic noodles. Services: The guy who helped me was very friendly and helpful. Even though we are new to Arizona, he stayed and chatted with us for a bit. The price was reasonable considering the quality and quantity of meals you receive. A great place to go if you're looking for authentic Vietnamese cuisine in Arizona. read more

Yummiest Pho I've had in the Surprise area. We We're a party of five, our food was out quickly. We ordered edamame, curry, pho and the ice cream dessert with banana, WOW! I enjoyed how peaceful the space felt, yes we went when it was almost closed. I cannot speak for their peak hours. The waiter was attentive and patient with us, we had a teen with us who never tried Pho before so it was a bit challenging. I will return, I do recommend and you must try their chili oil :) read more

Sizzling beef!!!! WOW! Filet mignon piece served on a hot skillet and the sauce it was made with was delicious! I had their potstickers and they were yummy!

So happy a friend recommended us! read more

Saigon Kitchen - The special garlic fried rice. Filet and shrimp with lemon grass noodles. - Vietnamese Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

This is our favorite restaurant in Surprise! We always get the same thing (Surf & Turf Fried Rice add Chicken) and we LOVE IT! The portion is big enough for us to share. We bring all our visiting friends and family here. They have all enjoyed it too. Restaurant has full bar and a great menu. One weird thing: when we dine in, we receive a cup of scallion broth included with the fried rice. When we pick it up to-go, they don't give us the broth. So bizarre. We even offered to bring our own container for it. I don't know what's up with that. But we love the food so much that we will always come back!! Lunch time is usually easy to get a table. But dinner time (especially Fri & Sat) is pretty busy. read more

This was the nicest ambiance Vietnamese restaurant I visited in Phoenix area, and I've been to a lot of them. The price is a little higher than the majority of Vietnamese restaurants in the valley, but they have happy hour prices 11 AM to 6 PM every day including weekends. The combination pho was very tasty, even the meatballs in the pho were good... and I normally don't like Vietnamese meatballs. Of course they had all the standard accoutrements to go along with the pho. The spring rolls had just enough mint without being too overpowering. Even the shrimp in the spring rolls actually had a shrimp flavor vs the flavorless ones out other restaurants. The peanut sauce for the springrolls was a little too salty for my taste... but even considering that I used it all. The shaken beef filet mignon was so tender, yet a little crispy on the edges from the grilling with an awesome flavor. I had wanted to visit this restaurant after seeing it on little people big world (TV show) & noticed how nice it looked inside. The music level was just right, allowing you to easily have a conversation with others at your table. This restaurant has a full bar and lounge, I believe they open the lounge later in the evening as it was a saturday and 11:40 AM when we arrived so the lounge was not open at that time The only negative, What they call black tea is actually a passion fruit flavored tea, but they don't tell anybody that it's flavored. However, they swapped it out for a sprite, but the syrup/carbonation mix was off on the sprite. It tasted more like club soda, they made another one for us, which tested a little better, but it did not taste like sprite. It tasted like some weird off brand. I did appreciate that they didn't over charge on the sodas or tea, which were only two dollars each. It's a pet peeve of mine when restaurants, charge three and four dollars and up for a medium soda. So I'm glad their soda/Tea prices are more reasonable Overall, I was very happy. And plan on coming back next time I'm in the area. read more

This is one of those places we used to love. The makeover was amazing, but the food prices escalated. It has a bar. It's close to being too expensive for what you get. You have to be the judge. It's clean and complete. If a visitor has never had Vietnam food, it won't disappoint! read more

Updating 2/6/22- Saigon Kitchen continues to be one of my favorite restaurants! Many places have suffered due to staffing issues or supply chain issues, but I do not see that happening at Saigon. We love it here and just wanted to echo that again as updated!! Updating 5/3/21 just left this in the Surprise Restaurant FB group- Be kind to your servers... just leaving Saigon Kitchen stunned at the behavior of a table. The server tried everything to make it right, someone else tried and even the cook came out...y'all were so patient! I wanted to throw them out! Kudos to the staff!! I don't think there was any making them happy! I can't Saigon Kitchen has been a favorite for a couple years now... There spring rolls and that peanut sauce!!! The Shaken Beef is outta this world, fiancée loves the garlic noodles. Oh, try the house wings! read more

Da Beau and I dined here on 8/31/23. I've had better Vietnamese food for a lot less coin, and larger servings. The fresh Spring rolls with shrimp and pork were a standout, though. The Thai iced tea was both palette cleansing and tasty. The soba noodles in my entree were from a package...I was expecting from-scratch, hand-pulled noodles since the dish was over $20. Josh, the server, could not have been more gracious and friendly. He gave us plenty of time to review the extensive menu. We had the above app and tea, two entrees, and the tab, pretax and tip was $70, Schting!!! read more

I came here with my fiancé, i order pho and spring roll. It's not all that great and it's not what I expected its more like vietnamese with American. Pho didn't taste like authentic pho and spring roll isn't either. Service wasn't great as well because they didn't even come around and ask if we need anything or ask how is everything? Its a average small place its a little dark inside and its hard to see the menu and reading what's on the menu. Overall, if your looking for authentic Vietnamese to go this isn't the place to go. read more

We have been dining here for probably 10 years and used to really enjoy it. Things have gotten busy for us and we hadn't been going out to eat nearly as much so this was our first visit in quite awhile. 1. Whoever complained about it being very cold was right. We were chilled throughout our meal. I never unzipped my jacket. 2. They changed their ice tea from a very good green tea to a mango tea. My wife asked for unsweetened tea, but I don't think there is any way that tea was unsweetened. It may have been sugar free with an artificial sweetener, but in any case it was nasty sweet tasting and overwhelming mango. 3. They had a salt and pepper salmon "special" on their board outslde the restaurant that sounded like it might be good. It was actually an appetizer and didn't come with anything else, like soup, rice, or salad. 4. I wound up ordering my old stand by, claypot salmon. It was $26. It used to come with soup and salad. This time it only came with soup and it was MUCH more expensive than it ever had been. Our lunch bill was crazy expensive. When we arrived in the parking lot I told my wife the place looked empty. With prices like this I can see why. I don't know if it's a new owner, or if the old owner is just having a hard time making money to support the high end cars he always liked to drive, but this place is not the same at all, and definitely no longer worth the money. Getting less for more is not my idea of a good time. read more

We are regulars and love the tasty food and friendly service. I recommend the fresh rolls with peanut sauce, fried rice, vermicelli salad

We ordered the filet mignon clay pot, poke nachos, and chicken banh mi. All of the food tasted like an interpretation of what the flavors should be, but result as overuse of soy sauce and sugar. The banh mi and poke had an overwhelming amount of american mayonnaise. Bread was cold and tough, resembling jimmy john's more than a banh mi. Lastly, prices are crazy. Appetizers average about $20 a dish and entrees about $30 a dish, for a maximum of 5 pieces of meat each dish. The food and prices feel colonized and not authentic at all. read more

Great food I have eaten there several times. Always great service and good food! Not very big but never had a problem. Also always nice and clean. read more

Meh. Should have known that it wasn't the spot when I walked in and there were no Vietnamese people eating. Tried the lemongrass filet with garlic noodles and the clay pot salmon. Both were meh at best. Salmon was overly sweet and the portion was very small. Lemongrass filet was boring and a little chewy and didn't have any lemongrass that I could taste. Just felt like cheap cubed beef. Garlic noodles were meh. Tried their tangerine/orange wheat beer too and it was not good. Tasted like someone squirted one of those mio flavor water additive things into a wheat beer. I'm pretty picky with Vietnamese food. Maybe their pho is good but I don't think I'll be back to find out. This place was overpriced and the food was ok at best. read more

This restaurant is AWESOME! Devin was our waiter and when i asked for a red Blend he suggested "Pessimist" which is my favorite. I then asked which meal would you suggest as i've never been here before, he suggested the Sizzling Salmon dish that came with soup and salad (small delicious portions.. just enough! The soup was hot, the salad was crisp! The Salmon was FANTASTIC!! Well deserved 5 Stars!! read more

Ate here for the first time about a month ago with family. Excellent food! Excellent service. I highly recommend.

We heard great things about Saigon Kitchen so I made reservations for Saturday night at 7pm. We arrived right at 7:00 and the place was packed. Our table was ready, so the hostess promptly seated us. She brought menus, small plates with utensils, and said our server would be right there. Sadly, that wasn't true. We waited 20 minutes during which no one stopped to talk to us, even in passing or offer to bring water or drinks, so at 7:25 we left and walked over to the Longhorn for dinner. Maybe we'll try again on a weekday. read more

Pho here is disgusting, not even a silver of essence of what Pho is suppose to taste like. From my observations the majority if their clientele there are white elderly retired folks who don't know what Pho is suppose to taste like. It's not their fault they don't know any better. Save yourself money and don't even bother going there. Seriously, the top Ramen I make when I'm black out drunk is better than what they serve up. read more

PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR BILL!!!! Food was okay but the issue is that they advertise prices that they do not honor. We were given a happy hour menu with pricing on the items. When we received the bill every item had increased in price. We asked the server - he stated that the reason was that the cost of living had gone up. Which is understandable however either change your menus, post a sign or even let people know upon seating. read more

The entire meal, and everyone who waited on us, made for a fabulous Valentine's night out.(February 12, to avoid the rush!) We will return again and again! Thank you Dennis and Andy for all of the suggestions. Yummmm! read more

When you walk in, this place looks like an upscale restaurant. It's very clean & the seating arrangements were nice. I love the menu here because although there were items on the menu that were traditional Asian cuisine, there were also some unique ones that you wouldn't find at other restaurants. I ordered the Spicy Saigon Chicken Wings to share with my husband. I had the Saigon Garlic Noodles with Lemongrass Filet Mignon Shrimp & my husband had the Steak & Meatball Pho. Pho: We've tried Pho at 3 separate places & I have to say, this place by far had the best tasting broth! (Sorry, I forgot to take a picture of the bowl of Pho). Customer Service: Our waiter was excellent, our food came quickly & our drinks were never empty. Quality & Price: Everything we ordered was very tasty. The portions were perfect & the pricing was fair. Again, another great restaurant that I will continue coming back to! read more

I am torn as I came here due to great local reviews and my wife was here before and loved it. They are very pricey for the style of food the serve, 6 people came out to 180$ with only 2 alcoholic beverages. We ordered some appetizers and some pho, curry chicken, and firecracker chicken. What tears me on this is about half the table liked their food, the other half did not. My brother and one of his sons ate pho and curry and loved it. My wife and my other nephew had curry and pho and didnt like it. I had garlic noodle firecracker chicken and the noodles were amazing, but the firecracker chicken tasted like nothing, literally had no flavor. The service was good, but they had things like cappuccino and vietnamese cloud coffee on the menu, but you can't order it because, well, they aren't making it... so not quite sure why it is on the menu. Overall I am not sure if I will be back, for the price we paid I just can't see a return trip if it is a 50/50 chance that I will enjoy it. read more

I had been a fan of this restaurant for a couple of years. Unfortunately, have a "Dirty Dining" experience (which I will not detail her because it was truly nauseating) that ensured I will never eat here again. We did not make a scene and we weren't charged for the meal...but I can't trust their kitchen again. Caveat emptor... read more

Happy to have found this place. Great food, service, and wine selection. We got the steak and vegetable pho, very generous portions and a great way to warm the bones on a cold day. They do get busy, we went on a Tuesday ~6, highly recommend a reservation. We will be back! read more

Food is excellent! The espresso martini's are Devine as is the lemon drop martini. I will definitely be back!

We have been dining here for years and always enjoy our meal. This past year we've been ordering take out until we're fully vaccinated. Since Covid, their portions and what usually comes with an order have gone down hill a bit. For instance, if you dine in and order an entree, it comes with soup & salad AND the portions are quite substantial vs. take out. Every time we've ordered take out, they forgo the soup. Sometimes they're willing to sub extra salad at no charge but not always. Depends on who you ask. Tonight my hubby ordered the $20 sizzling filet entree and when he opened his order, it was missing the salad and the portion was a joke! Barely a cup of meat and of course no soup to speak of. Now I admit, I should have asked to see the order rather than assume it was correct but I was hungry and they had it tied up in a knot ready to go. Still, that is their responsibility to ensure the order is correct. We're going to stop ordering take out and hope they step up their game when we return to dine in. read more

My family and I have been going to the Saigon Kitchen since they opened over 10 years ago. The food has never failed to please and the service has always been great. Dennis, the owner, is often in the dining area talking with the customers making sure they are enjoying their food. The servers are always pleasant and provide great service. We like it so much that my wife and I even held our wedding reception dinner there. We stopped by for a late lunch today. As usual, we had our favorite appetizer the crispy pork egg rolls. (These are fresh 'homemade' egg rolls and not bulk frozen ones like many restaurants serve.) We also tried the chicken crispy pot stickers. Both appetizers were piping hot And delicious. We followed up with the house combination sandwich. The sandwich was served on a fresh French baguette. We have been to other Vietnamese restaurants where the sandwiches are served on plain sub rolls. The texture and flavor of a baguette makes a world of difference. The sandwich comes with jalapenos which can be a bit overly spicy for some. The servers always ask if you want them or not. To finish the meal, we ordered the Firecracker Shrimp Garlic Noodles. The shrimp are always firm and cooked perfectly. The sauce on the shrimp provides a nice level of heat while not overpowering the flavors of the other ingredients. The noodles are slightly al dente and have a nice garlic flavor. Overall, we enjoyed our dining experience and would highly recommend this restaurant. read more
