    Vermicelli bowl with beef and shrimp
    Tiffany H.

    Was in the area so decided to try this place. Tried the vermicelli bowl with beef and shrimp, fresh rolls and pho. The amount of meat served with my bowl was a small amount compared to the amount of noodles. The fresh rolls also had a lot of noodles in it. The pho was ok and could've used more flavor. Overall I would say the food was average but there's better Vietnamese food in the area. Service was ok and the restaurant was clean.

    Nice menus

    The large bowl is extremely large , so come ready. The service is nice and welcoming. The vibe is light and it feels like home. We left full and happy .

    So I'm a regular here at Saigon restaurant whenever I need a pho/ soup fix. This place is located in the Lakes shopping center on Oakdale road and Floyd. I usually come once or twice a month here during lunch. If I had to say what most people order is the pho or other soups besides their rice dishes. Lunch can be busy and there's always people who order for pick up. So today, I ordered the wor won ton noodle soup and a Diet Coke. You have a choice of rice noodle (vermicelli clear noodle) or the egg noodle (yellow, often same used for chow mein). I got the egg noodle and added the bean sprouts and peppers that is given prior to the soup arriving. It also has mint and a lemon but I opt not putting those. I add the plum sauce and sriracha for added flavor. I've been to a few other pho places but this one is close to my office and they know me there. Don't even need a menu and the lady already knows my usual. Now service isn't anything great. They'll take your order but won't chit chat and they aren't one to smile, etc. That's okay with me as long as the food is good and it is. Place is clean. They sometimes have the tv on if you need something to watch. One thing I want people to know is they likely put MSG in their food and their soup. Way I know is that after a meal there, I develop a headache lol. So if you don't want MSG, either ask to not add or avoid going here. For me, it's still my go to place for lunch.

    #9 of Large Pho with rare steak and tendon

    Food/Taste/Flavor: 4/5 - #9 of Large Pho with rare steak and tendon and #15 of Bun Bo Hue which is a spicy broth with beef and pork. Decent portion with clear pho soup but it was on the sweeter side. The spicy broth was our first time trying things like that and we enjoyed the flavor but it was quite oily. Service: 3/5 - very quick service and to the point so not friendly. First time so we didn't know you just walk up and tell them the table number to pay. Unfortunately, We couldn't tell if they were talking to us or at other workers some of the times. Ambiance: 3/5 - very compact store with sticky tables and condiments. Value for price: 5/5 - just under $15 per dish after tax which seems reasonable for the area and we enjoyed the food.

    This is a solid place if you're in the mood for some pho. I was a bit overwhelmed with the menu, but other yelp reviews really convinced me to try the garlic chicken. The garlic chicken was amazing and next time I come here, I'll definitely be getting it again. The pho was good and so were the spring rolls.

    This is a small restaurant that gets pretty packed quickly during dinner hours. Lots of parking since it's in a bigger shopping center. The food was very tasty and the portion sizes matched their prices very well. Their ice water is more like tap water so I strongly don't recommend that. I do prefer when restaurants have at least filtered water but that wasn't a big deal. The only reason why I marked them down was solely based on their customer service. Not bad service, but i feel they could have done way better. We were ready to order for a while. we made eye contact and even raised our hand so someone could take our order. Despite doing both, the worker just looked away and continued doing what they were doing. I thought maybe that wasn't that worker's role to take order, but eventually it was the same worker that finally took our order. Again, it wasn't too significant, but we definitely felt that we were ignored a bit.

    I'm gonna give 3 stars because the pho is good. But i must say they are a bit skimpy on food portions.

    I write this knowing you only have a couple weeks left to enjoy…read more The ramen here is incredible. You would be hard pressed to find better tasting food prepared by a more passionate person. Everything was fresh, everything was delicious, everything exceeded our expectations. This felt like a bay area experience right up the street. No traffic, no problematic parking just good people and good food.

    Located in McHenry village, next to the postal annex, I've seen Konfucious Eats whenever I drive…read moreon Briggsmore. I never was interested in going there for years since it's been there but decided to try it tonight. Firstly, the ramen place holds maybe 40 at most and we had to wait a while before we were seated. They asked if we had a reservation but didn't think that it would be needed since it's not like a fancy restaurant and I don't know many ramen places that takes reservations. Since we didn't , we got seated on the bar which is fine. For it being in Modesto, they try to get the anime vibe with toys and anime art around. I'm no ramen expert but I've tried over a dozen ramen places in Tokyo, Vancouver, Japan town in LA, San Francisco, Oahu, Seattle just to name a few cities. So we got first the spicy garlic edamame. Not bad at all, had a kick to it and was edible. From a scale of 1 to 5. I'd give it a 5. For the main entree, I wanted the garlic tonkatsu but the waitress said they ran out.... Ok, for a Saturday night at 6 pm, running out of a ramen and they've been in business for several years now?!? never had that happen before in any ramen shop I've been to. So me and my wife both got the Ichiraku ramen which was a miso broth with pork belly. Price $23. I added 2 more pork belly at $5 more. Oh, the waitress mentioned no bamboo shoots and no fish cake........ ok, never had that happen before in a ramen shop. So while eating edamame, I kept track of how long it took we got our ramen.... It took 30 minutes before we got our ramen... definitely atypical to wait that long wait but I guess it's because they offer a lot of items besides ramen. Presentation was fine, the pork belly was seared on one side with a blow torch since I can taste that searing. . It just had green onions, 2 seaweeds and 2 soft boiled eggs which I was impressed the yolk wasn't overcooked. The noodles I chose was thin and was good with a soft texture. The miso broth was average Over all, it was an okay ramen. Me and my wife both didn't finish our bowls... definitely unusual since we love ramen but somehow, it didn't fulfill our satiety to finish and be content. I can tell you that of all the ramen places I've been to. This is average and doesn't compare to Ramen 101 in Modesto that I've ordered many times before my first time here. Sadly, I can only give it 3 stars because the ramen was average and not in the same league as other ramens I've had in other places and cities. And if me and my wife couldn't finish our ramen, that's a tell tale sign it was just okay. Plus, the place is called Konfucius Eats, doesn't have a Japanese name for a restaurant since "Confucius " is a Chinese Philosopher lol. In fact, I didn't see any Japanese or Asian cooks... just saying that's atypical to the other ramen establishments I've been to. For Modesto, it's aight. I just can't see myself going back here for a long time. Lastly, they are open Tuesday to Saturday only .

    My youngest wanted to eat at this fantastic restaurant for her bday and since my brother and her…read moreshare bdays days apart we decided to have a little family lunch. We had a variety of rolls and they were all spectacular. I wanted to try out an order of their sushi nachos so we could all share it as an appetizer, and that was epic. Every one loved the dish. It reminded me of good fish ceviche but with a fantastic Asian twist. Definitely worth trying out. Hopefully next time we return they still have it on their menu. The fried calamari was delicious and so was the tempura. Everything was freshly made. The peanut chicken was nice and crispy and the peanut sauce was savory and sweet at the same time. The chicken curry was also very tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want good quality sushi along with other tasty dishes.

Service was a bit slow with one girl running the whole restaurant, getting orders and serving. Food was good. Baked mussels is yummy but it's not a whole mussel, it's more like imitation crab mixed with minced mussels. The ratio is less on the mussel portion. Th rolls are decent. I don't eat raw but my hubby does and states it's really good quality fish! So give it a try if you like quality fish!
