The food was really good. We ordered the shrimp egg rolls and the rare steak pho. They were both really good. The egg roll was... unique. Their chilli sauce was super spicy and delicious. Read more
Let?s say you want Vietnamese food, but you have to bring your middle age parents who are afraid of seasoning? Old Saigon Cafe... might work. The food is really ?safe? and not overly tasteful?no savory ?zing.? But the food has wonderful textures and thepresentation is top-notch. The restaurant is clean and looks good. Read more
Everything was fabulous! Very authentic flavors (I have live in south east Asia). The Pho have a very flavorful broth. The... Spivey Lemongrass Chicken probably was my favorite but everything was good. Meat was very moist and not over cooked. Pricesrange a lot but the quality is there and everything was worth what we paid. Everyone was very nice and helpful at the restaurantand it was packed at lunch so clearly people like it. Read more
Wow! Just wow! This restaurant can cook up a storm of delicious flavors. We are now personally addicted to the coffee... smoothie. I don't think I can articulate with words how divine this drink is!! We have been 3 day's in a row to curve ourcraving for this smoothie if that gives you any idea of how good it is. We are in constant search of Houston's best Pho. Thisplace serves up one of the best. The broths are amazing and so fresh. The shaking beef is mouthwatering good! We intend toeat our way through their entire menu!! Friendly service that doesn't skip a beat under the pressure of a very busy restaurant. Infact they nailed it! Read more
Old Saigon Cafe is by far my favorite Pho place. I've only ever ordered takeout so this was my first dining experience and first... time ordering something other than Pho. My go to Pho is Old Saigon pho and shrimp pho. I was able to sit6e anywhere I wanted.Service was fast, food was hot. Unfortunately, the Spanish speaking woman who took my order did not understand my order or maybethe menu. I ordered the Roasted Duck Vermacelli and wanted to add a vegetarian egg roll for $1.50 as stated on the menu. Shebrought out the spring roll appetizer. I politely told her I ordered the egg roll but she quickly said "no you didn'tc... shereturned with the $7.50 vegetarian roll appetizer which is why I deducted a star. I shrugged it off. I didn't want to send itback a second time. The egg rolls were hot, crunchy and delicious, served with 2 sauces. The Roasted duck was tender, sweetflavored and delicious as well. All the the ingredients in the bowl were fresh. And of course, the free creme brulee was thecherry on top. The ambiance is very casual, chill and comfortable. Service- 4/5 Food- 5/5 Total- $23 Read more
Hands down fantastic! My wife is vegan and finding a pho place that does good vegan isn't always easy. The broth is second to... none, and the veggie spring rolls are amazing. They use mangos and fried rice wrappers to add to the usual veggie spring rollto add a whole new level of flavor and crunch. The portions are huge and the staff is so nice. Give this local spot yourbusiness! Read more
