“Overall it's a great dining experience. The ambiance was cozy and stylish, with a French bistro style vibe. Staff were attentive and friendly throughout the meal. The pâté and bone dish stood out with great flavor, the Bánh Xèo was crispy, Wagyu Pho was solid and satisfying. Banh Beo was probably my favorite dish 🤤. Tables are on the smaller side, which adds to the intimate French style feel but may feel a bit tight for some. Would definitely come back to try other dishes.“

“Around 6:30 in the evening on weekdays, the store is almost full, business is pretty good, and the store also takes a lot of takeout orders.
The two of us ordered a bowl of mixed beef pho, a fried spring roll and a pork bun, and were very satisfied with everything. The fried spring rolls were very hot when they were freshly fried. They were crispy on the outside and filled with minced pork. They were delicious with the dipping sauce. There are three pork buns in a portion, and the fillings are crispy pork belly, pickled radish and sweet noodle sauce. This combination is unexpectedly harmonious and very satisfying. It is my favorite. The beef rice noodles contain beef tendons, beef slices and beef balls. There is not much meat but a lot of rice noodles. The soup is sweet and has a bit of Chinese medicine. It is just right for two people to share a bowl.“

“I personally believe this is the best vietnamese Banh Mi in manhattan. I always get #13 which is the OG cold cut combo.
If you want to Introduce your friends to Banh Mi... bring them here.
First timers would probably like the #1 sandwich. Which is just bbq pork. Or the #10 which is the lemongrass pork sandwich.
Fast friendly customer service and very organized“

“Saigon Vietnamese Sandwich Deli is the kind of place you stumble into once and keep coming back to.
The banh mi here is packed with fresh flavors — crisp baguette, juicy fillings, and that perfect balance of tangy pickles, herbs, and sauces.
It’s messy in the best way and tastes like real comfort food.
Fast service, fair prices, and zero drama — just good food done right.“

“Chef Papa is an authentic Vietnamese spot and I loved the food here. The beef pho had a rich, flavorful broth, the fried chicken was crispy and juicy, and the spring rolls were fresh and delicious. The beef sandwich was amazing and definitely a highlight. Everything tasted authentic and well made. Highly recommend if you’re craving real Vietnamese food!“

“The sandwiches and appetizers are so good. The meat is not over cooked and just melts in your mouth. Perfect meal for a cold rainy day. I do have to say the pho is not good though. Not very flavorful, we tried the all beef pho and the duck noodle soup which were both a miss.“

“Saiguette has a really excellent Banh Mi. The lemongrass pork shoulder is my absolute favorite, the spicy creamy sauce is delicious and the pork is juicy. The veggies inside are generously portioned and the bread is crispy and soft. I probably eat it once a week and its genuinely almost a perfect sandwich.“

“Sao mai is probably my favourite Vietnamese restaurant in NYC. The place is very cosy and no-frills, the food is always so inviting and delicious, and price point is so good (especially in the city nowadays haha).
My favourite dish here is the bun bo hue. The broth is sooo fragrant -- just the perfect mix of spicy and sour (the lemongrass and shrimp paste flavours both taste so vivid without being too dominant). The noodles are cooked to a nice texture (and come in a large portion size), and the beef slices are so tender and flavourful. So delicious ... I'm getting hungry just writing this haha.
I also really like the bun thit nuong for one of the non-soup noodle dishes. The mix of lettuce and carrots is always so crispy and fresh, and the veggies complement the perfectly-grilled pork strips so well. Adding a bit of fish sauces adds a nice depth of flavour when mixed into the dry rice noodles, and every bite, combining a bit of meat, carbs, and veggies, is wonderfully balanced.
The pho dishes are also fantastic. Pho tai is a particular favourite (the beef slices are so juicy and tender), and the broth is just so aromatic without being too salty or oily.
The price point overall is so good -- it's hard to find such a good value in the city nowadays. The appetisers can be a bit pricey, relatively speaking (I like their summer rolls, but it feels like I should just get another entree at that point haha), but each bowl of noodles is usually in the mid $10-20. So worth.
I can't wait to come back again :)“

“Saigon Social is an amazing Vietnamese restaurant in the LES of Manhattan. Owned and operated by Helen Nguyen who uses her wonderful restaurant to prepare food for those in need for various organizations in NYC. She is a wonderful person and an amazing chef using her classical training to prepare amazingly authentic and forward thinking Vietnamese dishes. It’s a must visit!!!!“

“I came to Em Vietnamese Bistro on a whim, craving something warm and comforting on a cold, snowy day, and I am so glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt inviting and calm. The space is relaxed and spacious, with beautifully lit lighting that creates a cozy, welcoming vibe. It is the perfect place to enjoy a hot bowl of soup.
I ordered the Bún Bò Huế Đặc Biệt after our server, Mint, shared that it was her personal favorite. When I asked her to help me choose between the spring rolls and wings, she genuinely recommended the spring rolls, and I truly appreciated her honesty. Her warmth and attentiveness made the experience even better.
The food did not disappoint. The broth was incredibly rich and flavorful, with a generous variety of meats that added depth to every bite. The spring rolls were perfectly crispy and, just as promised, absolutely delicious.
Overall, Em Vietnamese Bistro was a wonderful experience, from the ambiance to the service to the food itself. I would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for comforting, high quality Vietnamese food.“

“Tried their OG Banh Mi, and WOW.... the baguette was incredible, easily one of the best Banh Mis I've ever had. The coconut cream coffee was also delicious and paired perfectly with the sandwich. Can't wait to go back and try more from the menu.
One tip: instead of waiting in line for hours, I ordered online for pickup. super quick and convenient. That said, I'd love to dine in next time to enjoy the full experience.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Such a cute and cozy spot! The food was super yummy, the vibe was chill and comfortable, and the staff were so kind—especially Pim, who made us feel really welcome 💕
I had the crunchy spring rolls and shrimp summer rolls (no pics because I was way too hungry 😅), then the Pho Dặc Biệt, Hanoi-style Banh Mi, and finished with the most perfect Flan Cà Phê.
💥 I dare you to try the Pho—the portion is HUGE and totally worth it! Trust me, you’ll leave full and happy 😊“

“The Banh Mi Cart is my favorite part of working in the Financial District. They’re only open 4 hours a day but boy do they deliver! Hot, delicious ready-to-eat Vietnamese banh mi’s ? And the two uncles working the cart are super friendly and are the most honest, hardworking people I’ve met. I’ll have to try to get there earlier because the roasted pork banh mi is sold out everytime!“

“Very friendly service,cute little shop with beautiful decorations and art. The house limeade is refreshing and sweet and the Bun bo hue was the best I ever had it was hearty and delicious. Favorite Vietnamese in the area.
2nd visit was just as good this time got the pho supreme its so delicious and warming especially during the winter and flavor is on point. Limeade was less sweet this time but still refreshing.“

“Really amazing food! We ordered Caramel Pork Banh Mi, Beef Bulgogi Bowl, and Kimchi Fries. Fantastic flavors and it just hit the spot after walking all over NYC. I ate the bowl before taking a picture because I could not wait. It just smelled so good. The spicy mayo sauce is so addictive and the fries were crispy and delicious. It's a small shop so there may not be enough space to sit if it's busy. But I would 100% be back the next time I'm in the city.“

“It was my first time trying Pho, and I genuinely didn't know what to expect. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised! I had the beef brisket, and it was absolutely delicious. It made for such a comforting and enjoyable experience, and I'm grateful for the chance to try something new!“

“Omg this literally the best pho ever.
I had a LARGE beef brisket pho. The broth is to die for. That is a good thing after a hangover. The shrimp spring rolls are a good appetizer. The chicken and shrimp fried rice was amazing. The chicken noodle soup was the best ever. He had grilled chicken. My boyfriend needed this to revived himself. Chicken soup is good for the soul. The kind that says you matter and makes you feel you're blessed.
As soon as we got in they greet us with smiles and good tea. That's why we needed after a good night. Real soup is to the body what peace is to the soul. Soup is a symphony of flavors dancing on your tongue.
Thank you for having us and serving us with warmth greeting.“

“My husband and I came to dine for a last minute Sunday night dinner, and we will now be regulars here! The food tasted great, the waitress and Marty were very friendly, and given that I cannot eat soy they were very accommodating. As the fried rice is made fresh, they could make it without soy, and same for the beef. And also the Pho that my husband had is soy free and made with amazing rice noodles. Highly recommend stopping by for anyone in the area looking for a tasty bite. (They even gave a sample of the jasmine green milk tea. Cozy welcoming vibe from the staff!)“

“I am a native SF Bay Area woman with specific needs - and Banh Mi Place hits. Over the last 4+ years, I consistently enjoy the classic and braised beef as well as a grilled pork sparingly. Their summer rolls are filling and the peanut sauce is close to perfect.
I don’t often order pho from here, however I will pick up a side of broth almost every time I order.
Staff is attentive, communicative, and sweet.“

We’ve been here many times, and it has become one of our go-to spots whenever we crave something delicious and satisfying.

“Nice atmosphere for a place with standard Vietnamese fare. Prices were a bit high, but you're paying for the atmosphere, location, and good food. Pork chops were delicious. I enjoyed the tenderness and charring. The wrapper for the spring rolls had an interesting texture. They reminded me of a Chinese crispy birds nest but more delicate. The team serving us were attentive and efficient.“

“First time trying this spot, larger seating area than expected from passing by in the past and cute decor. My boyfriend got the grill beef banh hoi and I got the spicy lemongrass beef with fried rice. I also got the Thai iced tea. For appetizers, we had the spring rolls and Thai style fish cakes. We'd get every one of those dishes again and will definitely be back when it's cooler out for pho. The portion sizes were decent for the price as well, I think before I added on fried rice instead of white rice my meal was only $12. Service was great as well, so kind and attentive but not hovering!“

“I've been coming here for a few years and they have yet to disappoint, knock on wood!! They are like my second family at this point. Their Vietnamese coffee is to die for and I absolutely love their recipe for the Bun Bo Hue. The quality has NOT changed at all and I am grateful and also thankful they do not skimp out on the quality of their dishes. I really do hope and pray this place stays open for a long time.“

“If you're here for a very good sandwich I cannot recommend this place ENOUGH! They just opened and I wish to see a lot more people in the store for the quality and quantity of food you get for the price. I just had their grilled pork Banhmi sandwich and wow was I blown away by how good it was. I have yet to pick an item off the menu that was underwhelming. If you're ever passing by or doing errands, please take the time to stop by this store. I promise it will be worth your money!“

“The pho was great but the bahn mi was even better! The food was really fresh and tasty and service was quick. They also brought a second bowl so we could share pho between 2 people which was nice, because many places discourage sharing. The pho was huge so we had plenty for 2. The atmosphere was cute and stylish.“
