For me ,the best Vietnamese restaurant The broth is tasty, portions are large, Victor and his wife keep the quality consistent. I luv their Bun dishes. Best fish sauce, Pho is delicious. Particularly like their egg noodle dishes. Great broth for those dishes as well. Their egg rolls are large and you get 6 of them with lots of greens to wrap them in, the best. "Gareath eats" list them as one of the 4 best Vietnamese restaurants in SD. Check his review out on YouTube. read more

It has been so long but nothing has changed. Food was great and fresh. Portions are huge enough to have leftovers for days. Their water is infused with lemongrass? which is unusual. Must try their chicken wings. It's a little feathery but once plucked it's super flavorful. read more

Um... this place is filthy. Service is slow, food mediocre. They should level the place and start over.

Food is great and authentic as always. Service was nice and friendly. Easy parking as there's a huge lot in front. The restaurant is clean and spacious. Would highly recommend! read more

One of my favorite pho restaurants in San Diego, this place has been a staple for many, many years. Known for their variety of menu items, literally the menu is never ending. Everything here is delish. I only took pics from my recent trip but I highly recommend the pho (of course), eggrolls, rare beef salad, boneless crispy duck, fried pork ribs, grilled pork vermicelli, and all of their rice dishes. Spring rolls are huge! Packed with fresh veggies, pork and shrimp. You won't feel guilty eating them. It's almost like eating a salad on the go. I also ordered their banh xeo, crispy, filled with veggies, shrimp and pork paired with their sauce and option to eat with lettuce. Highly recommended. They have ample seating, perfect for big family gatherings, hanging with friends or perfect for date night. This place has something for everyone. Staff is super sweet and friendly too. Helpful with recommendations. read more

I remember coming to Saigon with my dad as a kid and ordering phở. This place used to be popping and always packed. Over the years it has quieted down, but the food is still just as incredible as I remember. I recently visited again and ordered the crispy duck, which I hadn't had in years. It did not disappoint. Still as delicious as ever. Saigon has been a staple in City Heights for a long time and truly deserves more love and support. If you haven't tried their crispy duck yet, you're missing out. I promise it will blow your mind. Go check them out and support a place that has been serving amazing food for years. You can thank me laters! read more

Saigon - tofu pho - Vietnamese Near Me - San Diego, California

My fiancée and I were craving com tam one day and we were searching on yelp to see which restaurant has the broken rice dish on their menu. I saw the pictures that Saigon had and it looked the most appealing. However the restaurant itself had a 3 star so we were skeptical. I've been here before since I was young but maybe things have changed and it's not good anymore? We decided to give it a chance and order to go here. The food came in a huge portion and it smelled scrumptious! 10/10 recommend for the broken rice with grilled pork. It was good and not dry. The dish came with a small bowl of soup and lots of veggies! read more

Best broken rice in SD. Get the grilled pork one. Super flavorful and generous portions. Another fav is the grape leaf beef, which you wrap into spring rolls. Food takes a while to come out but it's well worth the wait. read more

This is the 2nd time this has happened where this restaurant just decided to close before the actual closing time. I cut them some slack last time but I can't just keep silent on this. Can I speak to the quality and taste of the food? Nope! I can say their service sucks because they are too lazy to stay open till their guaranteed hours. I arrived tonight at 8:37pm (on a night when they're supposed to be open till 10pm) to find them completely closed. Thank goodness other Vietnamese restaurants were open till scheduled hours or my family and I would have starved. read more

This place is family owned and I really enjoy supporting small businesses. Sometimes it does take a little bit to get your food but the salt and pepper shrimp is always worth the wit for me. It has an amazing crunch and the best flavor. Though always order with the shell and eat it too because you really taste the difference otherwise! read more

I was really looking forward to my experience here. I have been searching for a great Vietnamese restaurant-so we drove out to City Heights. This place has been open for 29 years and is considered a fixture in the community so it made sense to check it out. When we walked into the restaurant, no one greeted us and there were so many tables full of used plates. After a few awkward moments watching everyone in the place, we decided to find a clean table to sit at. We eventually got menus and boy, there was so many food options-7 pages!!! It was a little overwhelming but we eventually settled on the 7 beef sampler. It was fun to try all the different beef options. The vegetables were so fresh and I enjoyed cooking the beef on the hot pot. The beef porridge was good too, but by the time we got it, I was so full. Ultimately, I don't plan to return to this spot, but I'm happy to have gotten the experience and unique flavors. read more

This place is good, but I don't understand how two other staff members there can't get the food, right..! I'm talking about your order after you explain to them what you want.. I always feel like I'm asking for a favor. Honestly, the fool is great. The prices are OK little higher than other spot. But to me the staff and the time it takes them to prepare the food a lot. I give the food a three star rating, but the staff 0 star. And that's the reason why I'm gonna give this place one star on this for you. The gay guy and Filipino guy there are awesome, great and fast at getting you your food. There is a lot of Vietnamese restaurants from the area literally just a few blocks West from there. Super bomb way worth going. With all this said, I do not recommend this place .. or just maybe??? read more

My family & I have been coming to eat here since I was a little girl. The inside is spacious & it has a a lot of natural lighting from all the windows around the restaurant. It is always clean & well kept. When we walked in yesterday, they weren't busy as other times so we got seated right away. The server gave us the menu & water right away. My dad ordered the family combo for $60 which was perfect for our family of 4. Every dish has a nice savory taste which all goes really well together. We like to put some of the juices in the fish pot into our rice which gives the rice a nice salty spicy taste. The server was also consistent with filling our cups with water. At the end we did take some leftovers to go which is good to eat the next day with some white rice at home. This is a great restaurant to go to on a casual weekday dinner or a big family occasion. We have been here for Mother's Day or graduation celebrations. Prices are not too expensive and portions are good. Overall great restaurant & definitely recommend! read more

Saigon - Com Tam! They have a lot of options for your protein or toppings! - Vietnamese Near Me - San Diego, California

Still one of my favs Viet places to go for nem nuong, vermicelli bowls and their rice plates! Their rice combo plates are off the hook. They give you so much. It's more than 1 portion. We always have left overs and eat it for lunch the next day. Their vermicelli is just as good. Our other favorite is their salt and pepper shrimp. It's fried so crispy and so much flavor. Eat with plan white rice! Their hu tieu and soups are good. Service is so so, just like a Vietnamese place. Food orders take a little bit longer to come out but they get pretty busy. read more

Pho was pretty good, staff was slow and a little rude but other than that food was quick and good

This is a well established Vietnamese restaurant located in the heart of Little Saigon. They have an extensive menu featuring both Vietnamese and Chinese dishes, and large tables perfect for family style dining. While other restaurants may specialize in a few certain dishes, Saigon has it all. The service can be kind of slow but it's methodical. The Spring Rolls are absolutely giant here. You can easily cut an order of two in half and share with four people. read more

I've been here a couple times before I decided to review it. I'm always scared to get pho at different places because it can be a hit or miss but every time I've ordered pho here, it's always been consistent. The broth has so much flavor every single time. The menu here is HUGE. It can be overwhelming. They have a little bit of everything basically. But for the most part, everything is good. Food takes a little bit on the longer side to come out but that just tells me things are fresh. This spot is out of the way for me, but I'd probably end up here if I'm in the area. read more

Last Monday around 1pm we had the worst service ever! The waiter was this old middles aged Vietnamese man gave us the worst seating and wouldn't let us switch tables that were open. Two large groups came after us and they immediately got seated in the location we were denied because it was closed but was open for them. Add to the insult, they started taking the order of those two groups and ignored us despite being seated 10 minutes before. We waited and no one came. We were so upset that we left and the old middled man gave us a dirty look clueless of his poor attitude and customer service. Sadly, we were excited to try this place but couldn't make it to order given the piss poor service. read more

Saigon - No place will beat this when it comes to com tam - Vietnamese Near Me - San Diego, California

We ordered pho, charboiled pork rice plate, seafood pho, eggrolls, and BBQ w/ vermicelli noodle. First off let's start with the service. It was literally non existence. Welcome to self service. The rice plate was not good. The pork was okay but the rice was so moist and soggy. It had me contemplating it this was last night's dinner from someone else. The eggroll was decent. The pho was okay. Their broth was not flavorful and could use some more seasoning. There were basically no customers in the restaurant. We were the only one. I would not come back to this restaurant. read more
