This is one of the go-to places for Vietnamese food in Orlando. This place not only serves the usual such as pho and vermicelli, but more traditional foods as well. I love the beef pho here but last time I went, I ordered Canh Chua Cá and received a pot of comforting sweet and sour broth with vegetables and fish over a flame. It also came with a small bowl of rice. Their fried shrimp in salted egg is simply divine. It's super crunchy, and is a nice mix of salty and savory. I don't think the flavor is too egg-y either. Their mango salad with shrimp (or snails! If you select it) is refreshing and crunchy as well. My server was very attentive and I have never had to wait long for water refills or for food to arrive. Admittedly sometimes the place can get a bit crowded and loud, but the noise levels are tolerable. Even while crowded on very certain days, I haven't experienced needing to wait for a table. The place overall is clean and well decorated. read more

Was such amazing food! Everything was very fresh. Didn't really know what to get at first but looking around at all the tables, the food looked great. Everyone was polite and helped explain the menu items. The place was like your usual neighborhood Chinatown spot with authentic flavors. They had cute year of the horse decorations on the window. - Bun bo hue spicy noodles had delicious flavors and chewy fabulous noodles - Mango salad with grilled shrimp was spot on with its flavors. The shrimp chips were a hit - stir fry crispy noodles with seafood mix was traditional and it got eaten up pretty fast - scallops with scallions were simple yet tasty. The garlic and peanut mixture was a good topping Snails and hotpot was in their name when looking it up (Oc Lau) and there were a lot of snail dishes and a lot of customers had the hotpot at their tables read more

First of all, I love the decor here. The vibe was just immaculate. I love all the neon signs and the arts on the wall. In terms of food, I do think that they got some good dishes, especially the seafood part. Highly recommend ordering the clams and the snails. The service was amazing. I forgot to tell the waiter about my peanuts allergy and they were so accommodating, and they went back to the kitchen and remove the peanuts for me. My only boutique was the chicken Pho. I was expecting fresh noodles but they didn't serve it. read more

Really Liked This Vietnamese Restaurant in Orlando. They have a huge parking lot so it's very easy to park. It's on the corner of this plaza located in Chinatown. Inside it's very bright and is newly and nicely decorated. Everyone working is very friendly and helpful. We sat down and ordered chicken and fish. They came out and were very tasty. We both loved our dishes, & would come back again. I like that there are a lot of seafood dishes, & there are dishes that I don't see just everywhere. Great food, service and ambiance! Their Grand Opening is this week starting / Oct. 6, 2025. Check their IG they have a discount for the week. And they said they will have various events to celebrate. read more

Super great service. Process are very reasonable and you get a ton of food. The pho was amazing especially the tendon,. The broth was excellent. My second favorite pho in Orlando. A ton of other options that all looked outstanding. I'm coming back at least twelve times, this week. Highly recommend. The decor is also really cool with murals and other fun stuff. read more

This is another spot I used to frequent when I worked in the area and hung out with friends. I used to come here with my old college friends and get Pho Tai. They've been here for at least a decade. I was happy to see they're still around. I haven't been in so long, but I would definitely recommend them for traditional Vietnamese food in the Kirkman area. read more

Good customer Service and good food and good restaurants. Frist time i try I'm very love this restaurant.

After the recent rebrand, I was excited to the new place, especially since I really enjoyed the old version. I'm happy to say it did not disappoint. I ordered a classic bowl of pho and left very satisfied. The portion size was a little smaller than I expected, but the flavors were rich and balanced, and the meat was tender and well-prepared. While I didn't get to try other dishes this time, I'd feel confident exploring more of the menu on my next visit. The interior has a fun, modern vibe that feels more updated than a traditional Vietnamese spot. At the end of the day, though, what matters most is the bowl in front of you, and this was a good one. You really can't complain about that. read more

To go order: crab fried rice. It was really good! They used blue crabs and included two claws on top. If you love seafood you should try this. It's definitely a different alternative to the basic shrimp, pork, or chicken fried rice that we all know. read more

Have heard great things about this place but unfortunately, we find it to be a bit overrated. When we walked in, not only were we not seated right away, the staff forgot to hand us a menu. While the menu does have an impressive variety, we find the food tasting mediocre at best, specifically the grilled meat in our dishes were dried out like jerky with red food coloring. Sadly we were quite disappointed...definitely have had better authentic Viet experience elsewhere. read more

4.5 stars but I rounded up since it's on its soft launch. Saigon's Oc Lau is located in the same strip as Enson Market on West Colonial. My sister and I intended to go to a noodle house but decided to give this place a try. I love traditional cuisine and sometimes it's hard to find authentic Vietnamese. We ordered the set of Canh Chua Ca and Ca Kho To which is both nostalgic home cooking style meal. It had all the flavors and with a short wait time. This also included the stir fry water spinach and mustard green side dish. The fresh hot chili peppers, fish sauce, and white rice accompanied the main dishes. My only criticism is that it wasn't catfish but either said or some other fish, but otherwise it was tasty and filled the craving. The interior was well designed with traditional decor, gorgeous wall mural and artwork. It reminded me of some restaurants I've been to in Vietnam. There's plenty of seating and the menu was expansive, but just enough for me to want to come back to try them. The owners or managers were very kind and friendly. I love that they were also attentive and I genuinely hope their business booms. It's always a good experience when all the elements are there. Plenty of parking in this shopping center and there's a lot of other Asian cuisine around. I hope folks give this place a chance. read more

Very authentic, high-quality, Vietnamese food in modern but homey surroundings. I had one of the simplest dishes you can get--pho with beef meatballs--but it was, despite being their regular or smaller portion quite large and very good. Everything came out promptly and service was friendly if a bit rushed--almost had a cafeteria feel to it and you pay at the front desk, not to your server. The menu isn't as deep and extensive as some but still has more than enough choices--really plenty when you think about it, and probably part of how they maintain high quality. Everyone else who was dining there when I visited appeared to be Viet-American, as well, and most seemed like regulars, chatty and greeting friends at neighboring tables. With many options for Vietnamese restaurants in Orlando and plenty nearby, this one shines in a simple way and seems a steadfast choice. read more

Salad and chicken were very good! Dessert and drinks were very yummy as well! Would come again!

We are visiting from New York, the land of no good Vietnamese food at all. We came after a long day in Disneyworld and they were very welcoming and polite. The food is comparable to California viet & reasonably priced. Highly highly recommend coming here. We loved the mango conch papaya salad, watercress stir fry, caramelized catfish and the sweet and sour catfish soup. read more

We love the lunch set here with the traditional Vietnamese meal: caramelized Catfish and sweet and sour fish soup. The first time we came the soup was really good, the second time it was not as sour, seems to be pretty inconsistent, but overall still good!

We had a wonderful meal at Saigonese Oc Lau & More in Orlando. The fresh coconut was awesome, but the food was even better. The salted egg chicken cartilage was a standout dish, and we also enjoyed the crab noodles and rau muong (morning glory). This was wonderful home-style cooking that reminded me of meals in Saigon. The decor was nice and we loved the charming service as well. Very good for groups. read more

Visited Saigonese Oc Lau & More on a Saturday, just before 4 pm. The restaurant's aesthetic is fun: the neon signs, the birdcage-shaped ceiling lights, murals, and old technology behind the cash register come together to create a cool/fun atmosphere. The restaurant was also very clean. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. When asked about the snails, our waiter gave thoughtful suggestions and steered us toward the Babylon Snails (Oc Huong Bong) w/ salted egg sauce. I ordered the snails and a Heineken. I enjoyed the dish and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys the taste and consistency of mollusks like squid. The Babylon Snails were chewy (a little more so than squid or octopus) and tasty, especially when paired with either the salted egg sauce or chili sauce. One thing: the plate is small, so I wouldn't get this as a meal alone. We also ordered the Crab Stir-Fried Vermicelli (Mien Xao Cua). The crab meat gave the dish a rich depth of umami. While it's not necessary, I felt that a nice squeeze of lime would have complemented the noodles nicely. Finally, the summer rolls were great; no thrills here, just solid summer rolls and peanut sauce. While the food is not cheap, it is also not exorbitant. Price per plate fell somewhere in the $15 to $20 range (not including hot pot prices). I think it's worth it for an early dinner; particularly if you're looking to try something new. read more

My group of friends & I ordered a couple of snail dishes. I think they did a great job on the presentation, the food tasted alright; however, still far away from excellent. For the sò lông nướng mỡ hành, it needs to be pair with salt + black pepper + lime juice (muối tiêu chanh); not everything go well with ginger fish sauce. The tamarin ballut - the sauce was seasoned well; but, I don't think they cooked the ballut with the sauce in a pan, they just reheated them egg & added on the sauce to serve it fast instead. It was a waste!!! We also ordered crab stir-fried vermicelli & crab fried rice. Great presentation, but only good for pictures, very flavorless, absolutely no crab flavor. I won't recommend to order any of these. For drinks, we got the tamarin drink w/ peanut & lemon tea w/ peach flavor. I believe you guys need to work extra hard on this because it was a YUCK. Both extremely water down; especially the peach tea, I think our server squeezed the lemon too hard if you know what I'm talking about. Overall, I see the real reason the business might go well only because they're serving some stuff that the others don't. So, good for you, I hope you improve and adjust a bit so the expectation and the reality would be matched. Staffs were nice & patient. Just with my experience, this shop hasn't made the list. read more

We received the wrong salad but didn't make a big deal out of it. However, the $55 oxtail hotpot was truly disappointing -- only two tiny oxtail pieces and the rest was other meat, which does not match the name of the dish. read more

Great restaurant with good food and great staff. Changing location but still quality food, would come again.

It's been a few days since my family's trip to Orlando, and our visit to this restaurant afterward was absolutely unforgettable. The food was incredible--I especially loved the Cơm Gà Sối Mỡ, which truly lived up to expectations. The flavors of the Phở, cơm sườn, and gỏi xoài ốc hương were fantastic. The service was warm and attentive, making the experience even better. I highly recommend this spot for anyone craving authentic Vietnamese cuisine. We definitely plan to return if we get the chance to visit Orlando again. read more

Absolutely must get their mango and conch salad (appetizer) and their chicken with yellow rice! The chicken was so juicy and crispy!

Despite it being a soft opening, the food is delicious and the ambience of the location is definitely appealing.

I love this place! The owners are so kind and attentive. The food is great and the new remodel looks amazing.
