They have been here for years and it is a family who owns and operates it. Good people! My favorite as well as my wife's and her sister's favorite is the chow mein with crispy noodles. I think they make their own noodles and they are the best crispy noodles I have ever had. They are unique and very light and crispy. I get the chicken chow mein and my wife gets the fried tofu version.It's not a saucy chow mein. It is like a stir fry and the vegetables are crisp and fresh. I don't like old fashion chow mein with the heavy sauce. For $10 you get a large portion and I just love it! Egg rolls and spring rolls very good too.They do a lot of takeout so there is always plenty of places to sit. That plus the lack of decor I give it a 3 for atmosphere. Parking in the rear or on the street is not a problem.

Ordered egg rolls, strawberry bubble tea, and sweet and sour pork for delivery via Uber Eats. At first I thought the portions were on the smaller side, but they were perfect for 2 people. Everything was fresh and excellent. :)

Wait time was long af for an order of pho and bun mi sandwich. 45 min wasted. Seems like there was only 1 person working. Pho broth was bland af. The bun mi was tolerable but over all. This meal should've been a 15 min wait time tops. With only 3 other customers already eating.

My favorite restaurant in the city. A hidden gem. I get the coconut curry with mock duck or the cashew one (vegan enough for me). Flavor is so good. Portions will have you full. Service is very kind. Usually quiet and peaceful. Parking available in the back.Vegetarian options: Most items can be made vegetarian/vegan

Saigon uptown… pretty good food, reasonable price, but the atmosphere is nothing to write home about. This place could be a lot better if they redid the inside. Just dim and kind of boring. Again, great food, tons of vegetarian options. We had 2 beers, an appetizer, and two entrees and it was $44. My wife absolutely loved the pho. I had chow mein with vegetables and we started with the cream cheese Rangoons. So all in all I’d give it a strong 3.5 stars but since I can only go 3 or 4 I’m giving 4.

I’m not impressed! The portions I got for take out is laughable! Rice is one of the cheapest things in the world. I order sweet and sour chicken and I got a 10 McNuggets. If you want to keep your customers, you must think about your portion size. I was disgusted when I got home to see, there was hardly no food.

The food is delicious and inexpensive. This time I had chicken with veggies, black mushrooms, cashews and a yummy sauce, and took half the large portion home for lunch the next day.

16.25 for four sesame shrimp? Taste good but seems like a rip off. A little truth would go along way just put on the menu it's going to be 4 shrimp.
