Contrary to the reviews, the pho was below average.. the ingredients didn't seem fresh.. The onion, bean sprouts, leaves, and chicken all seemed like they belonged in yesterday. And they gave me the pho in a square take-out container not meant for soup. Won't be back.

Food is AMAZING. Definitely a hole in the wall type of restaurant. Don't be afraid to try anything new. They are amazing. Definitely worth the price compared to more expensive choices.

Without question the best Vietnamese food I've had in the 3 years I've lived in GR, I wish I had known about this place sooner, I'd have eaten here all the time. Very friendly owners, highly recommended.

Great experience, the Mì Xào Thập Cẩm was delicious (swapped squid for chicken), which I got as takeout. Ordered the #10 Pho Tai when dinning in, which was great and included all veggie trimmings and add-ins.

OMG!!! BEST Vietnamese food ever. The waiter explained in great detail the food items we asked about. He was awesome. Serving size was huge…and I can out eat anyone but I was stuffed! The vegetables were fresh and the spring rolls were made to order…spectacular! This is true Vietnamese cuisine that I didn’t think I’d find around here. I’ve had others in Grand Rapids but not even half as good as Saigon Gardens. I know when I go to Grand Rapids, I’m going to go out of my way to order food to go. What a way to pamper myself in the evening with a big bowl of Pho. AAA+++. Put this place on your must try restaurant…it’ll be one of your favorites!

Not sure how this place has so many good reviews. Maybe I’ve been spoiled by really good pho places. This one was gross I couldn’ t even eat it. It was over priced for the little amount of food we got. We had to share two tiny condiment containers of hoisin and sriracha because they supposedly ran out of containers. The workers were not friendly at all. The bathrooms were so gross. They smelled terrible like piss, the door was black from all the dirt. Trash was over flowing, they had no soap (hopefully employees are washing their hands) it was a red flag but I still wanted to give them a try and I should have known better. Try at your own risk!

Amazing food at friendly prices and service is great. It is our go-to place whenever we can’t decide on what to eat. We’ve tried the majority of the menu and all the dishes are on point. Husband and wife runs the kitchen and are incredibly nice and down to earth.

The food was good and the service was what I expected. The one thing i would say that during a hot hot day, i wish they had the AC turned on. Also, the table were not well prep with napkins and other condiments. Overall, i would go there again for the food.

I'm not even trying to be rude....but It's Pho-king BAD. I will never order Pho from here again.

As a pho addict, this is the best in GR, tied with Asian Palace Pho 99. What gives Saigon a leg up is the lighting and their world class sweet and sour chicken served with a side of chicken pho broth - AMAZING

This place was sooo good. Went with a few of my friends. The pho and crab rangoons were delicious. We even got an extra plate of rangoons for a slightly longer wait. The prices seem fair and the service was exceptional. Was a bit unclean inside from what I assume was staffing problems. Either way… it didn’t affect the quality of the food or service ??
