Food is always fine. Front of house is always a disaster. Last time, I had reservations set. Day before, I got an email saying my party size, day, and time had been changed. When I called to have them fix it, I was hung up on accidentally. When I finally got to someone, it was so loud the hostess couldn’t hear me and I had to shout to tell her my reservation was mistakenly changed. She had no idea how to fix and had to get her manager. He was too busy to help, but could yell questions at her and tell her how to fix it. UGH.Also- When you order online beware. It says 30-40 minutes, then you get a text your food is ready in about 15 minutes, so it’s often cold if you weren’t already on your way.

I really enjoyed the food, drinks, atmosphere and service. Their pho broth was very good, far exceeded my expectations. I also loved their cocktail program.I was a little disappointed in the lack of gluten free options especially for a Vietnamese fusion restaurant. They use soy sauce in a lot of their marinades. It would be an easy substitution to use gf tamari, that wouldn't change the flavor but would make more dishes accessible for gf folks.Other than that, I was very happy with my meal and also my server was very patient and knowledgeable about gluten and helped me find something I could enjoy.

Great dining experience. Their service was friendly and prompt. The drink menu is solid. The food came out very quickly and was delicious. This is definitely going to be a regular spot for me!

Best pho in town. Salmon & Tuna carpaccio can go toe to toe with heavy hitters like Binchoyaki and Kru. Be sure you get a reservation, as the bar is packed 24/7.
We came here after playing Top Golf in Roseville with a group of 6. They seated us fairly quickly and the wait wasn't long at all. Our server was really attentive and kept the waters filled. He was super nice and the food came out ridiculously fast.The table was a little cramped but we also ordered a lot of different dishes to try. I got the pho with a side of short ribs and some garlic noodles, we also got the calamari and betel leaf beef rolls to share. My boyfriend got some chicken dumplings and he liked them.We didn't try any drinks but they looked tasty! I liked the vibe and the restaurant was really clean and modern!

I only give a 4 star review because of the closing bartender on 1/7 not saying a word to us/ignoring us (when we sat at the bar in front of her) We had to grab the attention of someone else who happened to be Tanner.Tanner was personable and informative.If it wasn’t for Tanner we wouldn’t give Saigon Alley another try. Thank you Tanner for turning our experience around!!

This place is pretty nice but where here to talk about the food too. Mussels were great but the pho was fantastic. I remember visiting a few months ago and the beef pho didn’t hit but it was a different story today. Definitely hit the spot with the herbs and other flavors this time. One of the best phos I’ve had in a while!

This Saigon Alley location I believe is the first one here in Sacramento. However, the other location in the north is way better.We have came to this location first, I had their pho and it wasn't rich in flavor at all. If anything, it was very bland, but the ambience is superb. The inside looks absolutely amazing, I wish I could say the same about the food. When they poured in the soup into my bowl instead of it being hot to cook my rare meat on the side it was lukewarm.I do prefer the north location better.
