Great little place for some good Vietnamese cravings! I ordered Bun Bo Hue tonight and that hit the spot! Will return with my family and try some pho or some Banh Mi!

Soooooo good. Love this place every time I go. They have an outside area that allows me to smoke a cigar while I eat and that's rare to find. The food is amazing and the staff even better. A must go if you're in the area

We just moved offices so now I am across the street. I looked online and saw this place and decided to give them a try. I ordered the grilled pork Banh Mi and was very pleased. It came with a side of broth that was just as good as the sandwich. I ordered it to go and it was done promptly and packaged perfectly for the journey back across the road. Highly recommend.

I love Banh mi. To me it should just be called east meets west.
It’s the best of both worlds. The crunchy beautiful French baguette the fresh ingredients diakon and carrots and the crunch and the sweetness. The pork belly add the meaty taste and much needed fat for this dish. The best part is the coriander leaves that add the smell of Asia to that crunch and airiness off the baguette.
What made Pho Saigon a little different. Firstly the addition of a few slices of Jalapeño. Barely any heat but enough to tickle your fancy. But the kicker is the cup of pho broth. You can dip it or eat it like a soup. You don’t see that everywhere and boy should you.
Lastly, the Thai tea is from a packet and mixed with condensed milk. You would think that it wouldn’t be good. But it’s not, it’s so delicious and the perfect accompaniment to the banh mi.
Ah this meal took me to a happy place and the service was awesome. Great job, great meal, thanks, done!

Best Bahn Mi in Richmond metro. I’ve been here for the great pho but tried the pork belly bahn mi for the first time and was blown away. Comes with a side of Pho broth for dipping. Also recommend adding a fried egg. 100%

Good, well prepared ethnic food. Not to busy - late afternoon on a weekday.

This used to be my favorite pho restaurant around but in the past year the food has gotten worse. The noodles are less yummy and the pho broth just tastes not even like pho, it just tastes like normal store bought beef broth. The appetizers are still delicious (especially the fried coconut shrimp or the pork belly lettuce wrap) but a little expensive and considering the quality of the entree (pho) just not really that worth it, in my opinion. I've been here at least 6 times in 2 years and the last two visits have made it so I never will choose to eat here again over other Vietnamese food places nearby. Service was also lackluster. I will say the quality of meat was good at least though. The spring rolls and peanut sauce are also good.
I picked up some pho and cha gio to go and I was pleasantly surprised at how southern Vietnamese the broth was! It reminded me of how my grandma made it, which leaned sweeter. The portions weren’t a lot but also not too little. It’s not a go-to place compared to other locations but it makes do when you’re working nearby. I wish it had a lunch special because I would drop by more often! My friend really likes that there is an ox tail pho, although you only get one piece.
Edit: upped it to 5* since their in-person service is great!

This hidden gem is really is the best Pho in RVA! I didn’t rate the service because that’s really up to you and your party. For me 5⭐️ because they understood my needs as a solo diner and didn’t overwhelm me with attentiveness. I even ordered a bunch of food Togo. Definitely suggest you eat here!!
A family favorite. Yummy and Delicious
