The worst vietnamese food I have ever eaten. I ordered Bo Luc Loc and Beef was chewy and of poor quality. Do not eat here. I actually feel bad for the restaurant, the staff seems nice but the food was disgusting.

My crispy noodles $15 were OK, not great. There was too much sauce and the crispy noodles were 80% soggy already by the time it made it to my table. I would have preferred more noodles not soaked in gravy. There were generous pieces of vegetables with a few pieces of chicken & shrimp. Their gravy was pretty good. Service was OK. I had a hard time understanding my waitress. Some of the other patrons had their orders incorrect because of this. Sucks for them because they had to wait for their orders to be fixed and the restaurant wastes food.

Great experience at Saigon City this afternoon! Came for lunch and left impressed. Family-friendly, great service, and the food was delicious. Owners were quite attentive and helpful, and sparked friendly conversation with our table. 10/10 would come back again.

Good food and friendly service! It’s nothing fancy, but it is everything you can expect from a pho place. Prices are reasonable, and the food is of good quality. Also, they are generous on portion size — even the meat! I had never seen so much juicy grilled chicken on my broken rice dish at other pho places. I would come back again next time I’m in town.

Located just outside of downtown San Mateo, this restaurant delivers consistently good food and neighborly service. In particular, the fresh shrimp spring rolls and pho are recommended. Menu item #56 is a reliable go-to rice plate with imperial (i.e., deep fried) rolls and meat choice (beef, pork, or chicken). The interior has probably not changed for 30 years. Very hole-in-the-wall vibe. Prices were updated recently, but still a good value.

This is literally the worst Vietnamese restaurant I’ve been to so no idea why people call it “authentic,” which unfortunately tricked me into trying it. I’ll talk about food first and then about service. For food, they seem to only use white meat on pho ga (chicken rice noodle) and I absolutely wouldn’t call that authentic and the meat is tasteless. For pho rieu, the taste is horrendous compared to Pho Kim Long because the flavor is too light to blend well with the crab meat and the shrimps are not fresh. The worst is my egg noodle signature soup which is so bad that I stopped after 2 bites. I ate all the fish cakes because that’s all that’s edible even though they are only so-so in flavors. The fried shrimp and pork egg rolls are definitely not even freshly fried but instead reheated so they are hard and the skins are too thick. They are also understaffed so it takes a while to seat you and not very welcoming but that’s expected in an Asian restaurant so I didn’t take any stars off because of it. It’s definitely possible that I ordered all the wrong things but they did call the egg noodle their signature noodle soup.

The food is so-so, not outstanding. Pho is quite okay, but the shrimp sour soup is too sour. I know it’s a sour soup, but the taste of an authentic Saigonese sour soup should contain both sweetness and sourness, not sourness alone. The restaurant is a standard local store. Staff is always busy.

Ordered the fried egg noodles and the portion was generous with a lot of vegetables (as I was hoping for). Servers were also very nice.

Love it here! Soooogood. Best Pho for a great price!!!! It’s my hidden gem, but I’m moving–so I’ll tell the whole world. Always great vietnamese staples: pho, vermicelli, ban mi. The broth is tasty and hits the spot on cold days. Incredible prices. We ate here all the time. Rarely a wait.
