So I had a Yelp event out in Elk Grove and afterwards we were looking for a quick bite-so we ventured over to the shopping center across the street and the options were plentiful. We decided on pho at Sit Lo Saigon after reading the reviews on Yelp from a few Yelp friends that I respect. Parking at this restaurant is plentiful as it shares a lot with many other businesses in a busy shopping plaza. This is the kind of place that you walk up to the counter and place your order then they assign you a seat.Its a very casual ,comfortable restaurant. There were two of us eating so we decided to go with the #3($15.95)which is with just brisket & the #4($15.95) which is brisket and meatballs. After a few minutes of sitting down,they brought our bowls out-I'd say less than 6-7 minutes. My first response was "WOW!!" The sheer size of that bowl is what struck me-it was huge. Then again for $15.95,I think it makes sense. I'm a weirdo when it comes to pho,as I eat mine in a particular way.I drink all the broth before eating any of the noodles or meats or side additions. So after doctoring this bowl up with the sides,onions,bean sprouts,jalapeños,lime,Thai basil and chili oil-I went to town on that broth. I thoroughly enjoyed that broth,It had a rich flavor that truly only comes from a long simmering process-It was very good. After enjoying all that broth,I went after the brisket and noodles, Slurp City for sure!! The noodles were wonderful and the brisket was nicely flavored and textured. I really enjoyed my #3 from Sit Lo Saigon. That being said,after dissecting their menu a bit,I feel like I missed out on some quality items. The Oxtail or the Bone Marrow versions of their pho sounds like they would be a whole different level-so I plan on coming back when I'm out here and plan on giving one or both of those pho bowls a try-they sound amazing and if the broth in those versions are anything like the #3,it will for sure be a memorable meal. In closing,If you find yourself out in Elk Grove and find yourself craving some amazing pho,I'd recommend fully stopping by Sit Lo Saigon and giving their tasty dishes a try.

I will start by saying im not super picky with my pho. Still, I can say that I love Sit Lo!!!! I also love a lot of hoisin sauce with my pho but with Sit Lo I put a lot less sometimes even none and the broth is good. I also love the self serve water and tea that they have, super refreshing at the end. They also dont skimp on the greens. Any time I ask for more limes or onions, they do not hesitate to give more;) Plenty of parking and stores around this location as well!!

Bean sprouts, onions, Thai basil, lime

Since moving to Elk Grove, we have looked at a few places to find our "go-to" pho spot and this place is among the top on our list. I ordered the special pho and bone marrow with broth. I was extremely happy with the portion size of it! Most of the time when I order pho at other places, I finish too quickly. But here, I always leave with a full tummy with left overs to take home as well. The pho broth has a rich, deep flavor and the ingredients taste fresh. And the bone marrow is MASSIVE with a good amount of marrow in it as well as extra meat on the outside. I also love how they have tea as one of the complimentary drink options. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My only complaint is that the pho spoons look like they have been used and abused. They are kind of unsightly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Other than that, I will be a returning customer!

One word. WOW. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we first walked in, we were greeted by staff and noticed the surplus of customers in the restaurant on a random Monday night at 9:30-10pm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A line soon followed behind us as we ordered. The person at reg was extremely kind and informative! We finally ordered and went to the water station. They also served iced/hot tea which was an excellent treat before we started our meal. We sat down at our table, and our food came out not even 5 mins later. I got the pho hanoi? Their special #14. My partner got the #5. We were blown away by the quickness and the flavor of the food. Also... the portion is HUGE. We also got complimentary sprouts/onions/(basil or mint?)/lime + condiments at the table and this donut bread, all products incredibly fresh. We ended up ordering a Thai tea as well, SO GOOD. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside was super cute, colorful, cheery vibe, and very cleanly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All in all, this place will be our new spot to get a late night grub. Again the portions are huge.. so come hungry.

Came in with a big group but they were very accommodating and got out our orders out pretty quickly.. The soup base was very flavorful I got the number 1 . After a while a bigger group came in for a graduation and we decided to leave since we were done and so they could have somewhere to sit , the staff did not rush us and made sure we were good . I would recommend

#4 brisket and meatballs with fresh noodles

My son has been raving about this place for months so I decided to finally check it out. This is a place where you walk right up to the register and place your order. The gals behind the register were super friendly and helpful for a first timer. I opted for the #1 pho bowl with ribeye and my husband decided to try the #4 pho bowl with brisket and meatballs and the fresh thicker noodles. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place was plenty busy but there were a few empty tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice and clean inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One of the workers already had a table ready for us with all the extras already at the table. The extras consist of bean sprouts, Thai basil, cilantro, limes and sliced jalapeños for those who like it spicy. I think our pho was brought out in about 5 minutes, crazy fast! We experimented with the sauces at the table - hoisin was my favorite addition. As for the dish....WOW. The broth was so rich and tasteful and truly tastes like it was cooked for 72 hours as advertised. The meat (ribeye) was tender and so flavorful. The noodles and veggies were very fresh. The amount of soup was insane. You truly get your moneys worth here as we had plenty of leftovers for another meal! I highly recommend and would return!

I was curious to try Hanoi style pho and saw they specialize here so decided to try it. My friends love this place and I can see why. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Interior is nicely decorated and modern looking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You first order at the cashier and then they tell you the table to sit at. We ordered the Oxtail pho ($19.50) and the Hanoi Pho ($18.95). Service was super fast. They came out instantly with the food. They had onions, bean spouts and vegetables on the side. The biggest difference between regular southern Vietnamese pho and Hanoi (Northern Vietnamese pho) is the broth. Hanoi style has a more clear and clean broth with different cut of meat. It also has flat noodles. The Chinese donut on the side was also a nice touch. The oxtail was very delicious as well. Very rich in flavor and tasty oxtail bones. I like how big the bowls were. I got so full. They also offer hot tea, cold ice water and regular water station. This place definitely specializes in pho ONLY and I can taste the high quality in the soups.

Sit lo Saigon is a casual Vietnamese Pho restaurant located in the Target shopping center on Laguna Blvd and Bruceville Rd where orders are placed at the front counter. Menu consists mainly of pho, appetizers, and beverages. We ordered a couple of bowls of pho, one of which was made with fresh noodles... it was quite better than the other bowl made with dried noodles. We thought the broth was good-tasting but average. The premium pho bowl had ox tail, short rib, and tendon - quite decadent and worth the premium price. We also tried their iced lemon tea and found them refreshing and delicious. Service was minimal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tables were clean and we sat ourselves.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is clean and warm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Absolutely, the best pho I've had in NorCal. Sit lo is not your ordinary pho shop. I've never had to order at the register, pay first and then be seated. But hey, it's their system and it works. I ordered the #13 Saigon Special for $17 bucks and it came with meatballs, ribeye, tendon, flank and tripe. It was a fat bowl. it had lots of meat and the broth was very good! What made it the best pho I've had in Sac/NorCal? The broth was bomb. It had all the essence of pho broth and spices. I loved how tender their meat was. They give free scallion oil and pickled onions which elevated the pho. They have these huge dinosaur bone with bone marrow 10/10. Their chili oil was dark and spicy. Sit lo's pho definitely hit the spot. Will def come back again.

Lots of character in the restaurant.

F.O.O.D. Review F - First Impression [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the moment we walked in, the space felt open, vibrant, and welcoming. It's very spacious and full of color, with a beautiful barrier of plants that naturally guides you to where you begin the ordering process.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The first thing that caught my eye was the stunning mural on the wall, paired with bright red-orange chairs that gave the restaurant so much personality.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ceiling, decorated with bamboo-style plates, added a unique touch, and the natural light pouring in made the whole place feel warm and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything was laid out in a way that felt easy and straightforward.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] O - Ordering Experience The ordering process was smooth and efficient. You order and pay at the front, and once you're done, they direct you to your assigned seating. I really appreciated how organized everything was. Before we even sat down, all of the pho add-ons--sprouts, onions, mint, and lemons--were already waiting for us at the table, along with the drinks we had ordered. Within just a few minutes, our food arrived. The service was impressively fast, and everything came out steaming hot with a beautiful presentation. This is definitely not your average pho spot. O - Overall Taste & Quality We started with the beef short rib appetizer, and I honestly had to double-check that it was the appetizer because it far exceeded my expectations. The portion was generous and perfect for sharing. For the pho, the bowl was filled with fresh, flavorful broth, perfectly cooked noodles that were tender and not at all chewy, and an abundance of quality meats--not scraps. They definitely do not skimp on portions here. Even after sharing, there was still plenty left to take home. I left feeling completely satisfied and even happier knowing I truly got my money's worth. D - Delivery/Dining Experience This place absolutely exceeded my expectations and has quickly become one of my favorite pho restaurants. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was clean, vibrant, and very pleasant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything felt thoughtfully organized from the moment we walked in to the moment we left.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I especially liked the pay-upfront concept because it allows you to simply relax and enjoy your meal without having to flag someone down for the bill later. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The entire dining experience felt smooth, peaceful, and enjoyable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] #PhoLovers #WorthEveryBite #FreshAndFlavorful #GreatAtmosphere #FastService #FoodReview #LocalFavorite #PhoSpot

Come here for something quick, fast, and easy. Order at the counter and they will direct you which table to sit at. Water and free tea(hot or cold) is self serve, which is nice you don't have to wait for anyone to refill. My go to is the Saigon pho and I always love the pickled onions they provide. Broth is good but not the best I've had. Plenty of tables but more difficult in a bigger group.

Finally got to try this place out after hearing about it for so long! I didn't know they had an Elk Grove location because I was more familiar with their Davis location. My friend and I came here to eat dinner after shopping around the plaza that this place was located in. Since it was in a busy shopping plaza, there was plenty of parking. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Walking in, I loved how they decorated the interior of the place. The ceiling was my favorite touch of decorations they did.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Looking at the menu, they mainly had pho with also some appetizers and other dishes, but from what I've heard, they are known for their pho bowls. With that being said, I ended up ordering the #3 Pho bowl which has brisket in it and I also got a Thai tea. I didn't realize it until they brought my bowl of pho to the table but the menu didn't have options of pho bowl sizes to choose from because when my pho bowl got brought to my table, the bowl was huuuuge! Which I didn't mind because I was starving and I was actually able to finish all my pho. I can't express how good their pho broth was. I liked how the broth didn't taste too salty and it was overpowering. I also appreciated the generous portion and balance of the amount of noodles to protein that the bowl had in it. Also, as my friend and I were getting to leave, I saw a server holding 2 bowls of pho that had a big bone marrow in it! I will definitely need to come back hopefully soon because I am already craving to eat another bowl of pho from them and have my husband and parents also see how good their pho bowls are! And maybe will order that pho bowl with the big bone marrow that I saw as I was leaving the restaurant!

We came here with a party of 7 around brunchtime the day after Thanksgiving and had an above average experience. The food was fabulous, although the place did feel a bit impersonal. The ordering system is akin to Subway - upon entering, choose and pay for your bowl of pho, and then find your seat in the restaurant. I always find it a bit weird to have to decide on a tip before even getting to sample the goods, but oh well... The servers were super fast to bring out our food though, and the Saigon Pho did not disappoint! I did have to raise an eyebrow at the bill, nearly $60 for 3 bowls of pho...gone are the golden days of a good bowl of noodles under $10 bucks!

I popped into Cafe La Vies for two drinks before a pilates class. It looks like the line can build…read morefast in here but they do a pretty good job at managing the line. Once I entered, I could see why there were so many people trickling in, they had so many drinks I wanted to try! But I went with the banana matcha and vietnamese egg coffee. Both were delicious. I'm not in Sac much but if I were to come by this way more often, this would definitely be a place I'd pop into each time as part of the itinerary. Ambiance isn't anything crazy, its definitely spacious and a cool place to link up with friends or even do some work on your laptop. I would absolutely make my way back, especially to try other drinks!

We recently stopped by Cafe La Vies and ended up having such a fun experience…read more I ordered the banana matcha, which was absolutely delicious. The banana flavor paired surprisingly well with the matcha and made for a really refreshing drink. It was one of those drinks that I immediately knew I'd order again. But honestly, the highlight wasn't even the drink itself. It was the adorable little elephant vessel it came with. They put dry ice inside and then pour water into it, making it look like the elephant is blowing smoke out of its trunk. My daughter was completely mesmerized. Watching her reaction was worth the visit all by itself. What I loved most was that it wasn't just a gimmick. The drink was actually good, and the elephant made such a cute keepsake afterward. It felt like getting both a treat and a souvenir. The café itself had a fun atmosphere, and it was one of those places that felt a little different from your typical coffee or tea stop. Helpful tip: If it's your first visit, order one of the drinks served in the elephant. The presentation alone is worth it, especially if you're visiting with kids. Between the banana matcha and my daughter's excitement over the smoking elephant, this ended up being one of those unexpectedly memorable stops we'll be talking about for a while.

Parking was confusing, didn't realize it was in a church and there wasn't really obvious signage from the parking lot that you're in the right spot. I had to look at the other review pictures to be like okay, I am here. Interior is cute and modern, but lacking that lived in feel I prefer for coffee shops. Service was quick. The coffee itself seems to lean towards biblical (lol?) food items. Think olive oil, dates, tahini, honey. I got the Tahini Einspanner because how fun, I can get some tastes of tahini and date but the whip and syrup didn't mix well into the drink despite me aggressively trying so it just lasted like a $7 plain latte. I almost had to bite the whip because it was so thick. Seems like they're using quality ingredients so the intention is there, the executions needs some refinement.

Super flavor and have Vietnamese influence in all their snacks and drinks. My favorite is the taro crispy rice cake, it's sooo good and something you can't find in other cafes/restaurants.

The all-around favorites are the mango pomelo and the Mango Tango (make sure to get it with jasmine tea and they also have a yogurt option if you like some extra tartness)! I think when mangoes are in season they also add fresh mango to the drinks which is a huge plus. I am also a huge milk tea fanatic and personally like my tea very strong without any hint of it being watery. My favorites are the Da Hong Pao and Osmanthus Oolong for extra floral freshness, both at 80% sweetness which is the perfect level imo for even a sweet tooth like me! Their boba is always cooked to the perfect chewiness and my only complaint is that I wish their milk teas had the option of coming in a larger size! The staff is always very cheerful and friendly, something that hasn't changed at all since they opened, which I really appreciate. The space itself is also very bright and spacious with plenty of seating and they also have lots of great snacks which makes it a good spot for hanging out. They also do lots of fun decorations and special events for holidays!
