Authentic Vietnamese. Broth is rich and full of flavour, noodles cooked perfectly! Iced coffee is strong, sweet and creamy.

Thoroughly worth visiting with great portion sizes and decent prices. My brother, my mom, and I all went here instead of the pizza place across the street because the pizzeria wasn't open yet, and I don't regret it at all! Definitely going back here. I took a photo of the front of their menu since they deliver, and they even serve tray-sized portions for events.

This is one of the best pho places I’ve tried in the Bay Area. When they brought the broth to our table, I could immediately smell its incredible aroma — you can tell it’s made with fresh herbs, not from a premade soup base. It tasted exactly like what my family makes at home, with that authentic herbal fragrance you expect from proper pho. Everything was super delicious. We’re so glad to have discovered a new pho spot for our family!

We stopped by Saigon House during a Monday lunch hour while in the area, looking to satisfy a craving for Vietnamese food. The place was surprisingly packed for a weekday, which seemed like a good sign. However, the seating situation was less than ideal. Tables were squeezed tightly together, and we found ourselves sitting side-by-side with strangers only inches away. If you’re looking for a quiet or spacious dining experience, this might not be the spot during peak hours.
We ordered the Shrimp Spring Rolls, Chicken Pho Ga, and the Cube Beefsteak with Steamed Rice. The Spring Rolls were fresh, with crisp veggies and shrimp that tasted clean. The peanut sauce on the side was solid, though nothing particularly standout.
The Chicken Pho Ga was a bit of a disappointment. The broth had a salty edge that overpowered the subtle herbal notes you'd expect in a comforting bowl of pho. It wasn’t inedible, but it didn’t quite hit the balance we were hoping for.
On a more positive note, the Cube Beefsteak with Steamed Rice was the highlight of the meal. The beef was flavorful, tender, and well-seasoned, and paired nicely with the fluffy rice. We’d definitely consider returning just for that dish.
Service was brisk and efficient despite the crowd, but not particularly warm. Overall, Saigon House has potential and clearly draws a strong lunch crowd, but the cramped atmosphere and inconsistent seasoning bring the experience down a notch. It’s worth a try if you’re nearby and craving Vietnamese, but it might not become a go-to spot for us.

Although i live right down the street, I've only been here a handful of times since they opened. The first time I came was when they first opened, it was amazing. They made a dish called mi quang that is hard to find and they made it well. I was so happy I found my place but the second time I came it was inedible. I gave it a few more tries after that, but it never was up to par. I recently decided to give it a try again and had their cari ga, which is curry chicken. It was actually really good. The only thing that I didn't like was that it had no veggies at all. No herbs, nothing. It was literally broth and chicken. It wasn't enough broth/ gravy. But I think I'll give it a few more tries to see the consistency of it.

The food was delicious and is fantastic for breakfast! I had the beef stew with rice noodles. The beef was fall apart tender and broth was delicious. Their ice coffee needs no words, just get it!
