46 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Saugus

“Delicious food and friendly staff“

“Second visit to Nightshade, 14 courses did not disappoint!“

“Loved it, the atmosphere was cozy and comfortable, the service was amazing! It was our first time ever having pho and we got some lovely recommendations, the shrimp crackers were out of this world along with the crispy chicken and side of ribs.10/10 would go again ❤️“

“Fresh, flavorful and excellent portion sizes. Staff is very helpful and friendly. So good!!! Ready fast, too.“

“Vietnamese café with solid coffee and matcha.

Stopped by a few weekends ago, a little past noon, and the place was already packed. Most of the food items (including the egg rolls) were sold out by then, so we ended up ordering the grilled pork bánh mì, a salted matcha latte, and an egg coffee.

The salted matcha latte was great. This was only my second time trying salted foam on a latte, but the sweet-and-salty combination worked as expected. The foam added a pleasant savory note that balanced the matcha nicely without overwhelming it.

The egg coffee, unfortunately, was bad. We had to wait an extra 20 minutes for a fresh batch of egg foam, but even then, it didn’t integrate well with the espresso and tasted bitter. My Vietnamese friend mentioned that egg coffee is typically much sweeter (closer to a dessert coffee), so this wasn’t quite what I imagined.

The grilled pork bánh mì was good. Can’t say I eat enough banh mi to call this top-tier or not, but the baguette had the right crunch. Just wish there was more sauce.“

“Great food and service equals great value!!“

“Very good and authentic! I’m visiting but will come back here every time in town.“

“I went back — and although my first time around ordering an ube matcha was very mediocre, i loved ther banana saigonese latte, banana matcha, and bbq chicken banh mi.

the latte was decadent, creamy, and had the right amount of banana flavor. the banana matcha had that deep matcha taste while complementing well with the banana cream. the banh mi came in a large portion, and was flavorful with clean flavors.

i will say, two years ago i got the ube matcha latte, and although it looked pretty, it was relatively bland and I didn’t get much of a matcha or ube flavor. the drink then also wasn’t smooth, with lots of little chunky bits inside. perhaps they fired that barista, or got a better hold of quality control.

also a very cute study / work space with wifi and outlets!“

“One of the best restaurants in the area! Gotta get the coconut pudding desserts — that’s a hidden gem on the menu and one of my favorite desserts ever. The service is kind, quick, and attentive, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere is cozy with ample seating.“

“First time there… delicious! Love it! Thank you“

“Food is delicious and great price“

“Great food, still crave it often, but big caveat:

Frustrating time re delivery here, did not send my food, or possibly delivered it to someone else (?) did eventually get a refund (previously would have given them 5 stars, had a better experience in the past, but so hungry and disappointed)“

“Came here with my dad and brother, all three of us love the food we ordered and the staff are super friendly too. Definitely will visit again!“

“Best food I’ve had from start to finish! We ordered several dishes to share (based on our waiter’s recommendations) and they all had unique flavors spiced to perfection. They were the kind of bespoke dishes that you know you could never replicate. Our fave was the Fluke. Even the mocktails were amazing! I can’t wait to go back!!“

“Delicious food and good service here .“

“Good food.“

“Phin has quickly become one of my favorite coffee places in Boston.“

“This review is long overdue, but this is a great Thai small business to support. The place is cozy [with seasonal outdoor seating] and the staff is always warm. The Drunken noodles are my go-to and it is a generous portion of noodles AND protein...for the most part. I strongly discourage paying extra for extra protein as I paid $3 for EXTRA protein and received 3 small shrimp. This seems to be a trend as I have ordered DN at two other places and the extra fee was not reflected in the portion delivered. But Mae does deliver consistently outside of this.“

“First time visiting and we ordered the Bun Ga Nuong combo. It came with two pieces of shrimp and a very generous portion of grilled meat—so much that I was able to enjoy it over two meals.

This was a takeaway order, and unfortunately I only realized after sitting down to eat that the bag was missing the spring rolls that are supposed to come with the combo. On top of that, one of us has a severe peanut allergy, and the dish had peanuts scattered throughout, making it unsafe to eat.

I called the restaurant right away. The owner immediately apologized, acknowledged they had forgotten the spring rolls, and offered to remake the dish without peanuts. She also told me to keep the original order, which I appreciated.

When I returned, they apologized again and gave me a freshly prepared replacement along with three spring rolls. While it was inconvenient to make the extra trip, I was grateful for how they handled the situation.

In hindsight, I would usually check about nuts, but I didn’t recall seeing it mentioned on the menu. Typically, peanuts are served on the side to prevent them from getting soggy, so this caught me off guard.

Overall, great portion sizes and solid customer service recovery.

Also ordered a banh-mi for one for the road - big and yummy!“

“The food is authentic and sanitary.“

“My favorite place. We come down from Marblehead both to eat in and do take out. Food is delicious and they do a wonderful job of packing up food for take out. Everything is so fresh and tasty we are never disappointed.“

“The best vietnamese iced coffee. Spring rolls to die for. Always fresh and delicious.“

“The food is authentic and sanitary.“

“Good iced coffee 😝 and the people are very nice“

“The pho is absolutely delicious. The staff is so kind.“

“Delicious!!! Tried the beef banh mi and it was so so good. They STUFF it with delicious pickled vegetables and the beef is super tender and flavorful. The bread is perfect. It's a big sandwich and they do not skimp on anything. It was so fresh and perfect. I miss living in Allston but I'm definitely coming back to eat here weekly.“

“The best vietnamese iced coffee. Spring rolls to die for. Always fresh and delicious.“

“We tried two amazing sandwiches at Banh Mi Huong: the Banh Mi Ga (Five-spice chicken) and the Banh Mi Bo (Lemongrass steak). Both were fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The wait was short, and I liked that you can see your name and estimated time on the board. We ordered takeout, but there were tables available for dining in as well. The restaurant is clean, inviting, and comfortable, and the service was great. I would definitely recommend Banh Mi Huong for a satisfying meal.“

“My first visit here. I had a dish where you make your own rice paper rolls with a protein. I had pork and it came with peanuts, carrots, watercress, cucumber, rice and a sweet mild fish sauce. It was delicious and fun. I didn't finish and for my to go box they included a fresh container of the dipping sauce so I was able to have the exact same thing again at home.“

“A real standout for affordable, excellent Vietnamese cuisine in a cozy atmosphere with attentive service. Somewhat unexpected considering the location in the old Harvard Garage which typically has fast-casual dining options. I loved their fresh summer rolls which were packed with herbs and served with a thick flavorful peanut sauce, as well as their classic Vietnamese summer salad of marinated shredded cabbage, chicken and shrimp. Small but interesting wine and beer menu.“

“I love everything about this place. The coffee is incredible (the Sea Salt Shaker is unreal), the daily pastries are always delicious, and the empanadas (tomato and motz) are a go-to. I also love the no-laptop vibe, it makes the space feel intentional. The decor is beautiful, and the back porch is such a tranquil, unique spot in Cambridge.“

“I lived in East Boston for so long and I always go into Boston to get banh mi. I don't know why but I never thought about googling in my neighborhood! East Boston doesn't have any well-reviewed banh mi But I found this little spot in Chelsea which was so close. I ordered over the phone and walked over and my God it was so good!!! I got a beef banh mi. I ordered it with everything on it including jalapenos. The bread was perfect, chewy and crispy and light. The vegetables were marinated and tangy and plentiful. The barbecue beef was so tender with no gristly bits And the marinade was delicious. The jalapenos were fresh and spicy. The sauce was so good. I think they had mayo and pate, I'm not sure but whatever it was it was absolutely delicious and I am really picky about my banh mi.

Google has their hours closing at 5:00 p.m. but when I spoke with them at the store they said they actually open until I think like 9:00 p.m. most days, there's a full bar inside! Like with a bartender and everything! I think they were saying that after 5:00 p.m. they don't allow eat in to provide a more space for people who want to go to the bar. But they said you could still do delivery or take out.

Anyway I'm so excited to eat 8374738374 banh mis without paying for the toll to go into Boston!!!“

“This place is the REAL Deal. Good portions, AUTHENTIC, Clean place, GREAT menu. Keep up the good work!!!!“

“Had pho and the fresh spring rolled with grilled beef, phenomenal!“

“I honestly come here just for the bun bo hue and it's so yummy!! It may not contain the traditional ingredients, but the broth is amazing.

Service is great and the staff are kind. It's a small restaurant and I'm always surprised by their huge menu.“

“One of the best meals I’ve ever had. I usually don’t leave reviews but this restaurant’s food was insane. We got the crab fried rice, Cajun catfish with mango salad, and duck fat fries. Everything was delicious, savory, and balanced. So worth it - will come back.“

“👍very good menu! Salmon is really good and fresh“

“Food is great, ordered a pho and a spring roll 😋“

“Amazing coffee shop, especially all their combinations of vietnamese coffee. They have it both in hot and cold and so many different kinds, never seen that many anywhere else, not even in New York City. Very authentic and great quality! Maybe a dollar or two more expensive than elswhere, but extremely worth it.
They also have great pastries and spots to work at with a laptop.
Moreover, they also have great vietnamese sandwiches! You should definitely try it.
For the people that don't like coffee. No problem. My boyfriend love matcha. And they have amazing yuzu matcha. TOKYO FOGG (which is a matcha latte with earl grey). He says that's one of the best matcha he's ever had!
Regarding the palce itself, it could be more renovated or modernized and the bathrooms are not always the cleanest (depending how busy they are). If they'd improve that, then all stars woudl be five!!!“

“Everything was Fire 🔥 . Going back again soon.“

“Great food and reasonably priced“

“This place is a true hole in the wall AS IT SHOULD BE. We dream about returning to Hanoi daily, and when the nostalgia is hitting particularly hard, this is the only real spot you could possibly get a true Banh Mi, vibes and all, to take you back.“

“It was delicious speedy clean polite staff loved the place definitely going back with the family.“

“I am no expert on Vietnamese food but have toured Vietnam (4 cities) on 2 occasions. Had dinner (takeout) last night at Saigon Hut. It continues to offer fantastic and delicious food 5 out of 5.“

“Nice for a quick lunch, and sometimes i go just for the fries and bubble tea. The togarashi fries are always excellent! Crispy, hot, and can dip in spicy mayo. For veg options I usually get the Noodle Salad with paprika tofu and the spicy peanut sauce. Everyone also likes the crispy katsu chicken. One note of caution: the brown sugar bubble tea is inexplicably bad! The plain milk tea is good though :)“

“I just ordered delivery here for the first time and my lord

The broth itself is incredible. Just beautiful flavor. They pack everything separately to go, so nothing gets soggy and you get to pick and choose what you want to put into your pho.

Some of the toppings were literally a fresh packed bag of produce that probably came from the grocery store that morning.

The beef was flavorful, noodles cooked perfectly. One of the best pho I’ve ever had.

It was a bit pricey through door dash so will probably make a point to go to the actual location next, but this is a well worth it treat for delivery.“
