i was under the weather, and i needed something light and nourishing to fill the void in my stomach before i went to sleep. i began to search around my area for chicken pho at around 7pm, as i would much rather prefer a light homemade broth over Campbells chicken noodle. i read the reviews for Saigon- more positive reviews than negative, and even the negative ones had been commented on by the owner, whom expressed their apologies and want to make it right for the few unsatisfied customers. to me, that showed they care a lot about what they provide to their community. now i know chicken pho is not the first choice when eating pho, but i saw a review confirming the chicken pho as delicious, and i decided to take a chance.
boy am i glad i did! i couldn’t find their menu online, and the Facebook was last updated in 2020 ? but that’s honestly my only qualm- mainly because Saigon deserves a lot of attention! i ordered the chicken pho over the phone- the one that was talked about in their reviews. i left quickly to pick it up as the woman i spoke with said they could make it in 10 minutes. when i arrived i saw a few tables dining at the ripe hour of 8:30pm- they close at 9pm. i thought, well it must be popular!
when i entered there was a very kind young man who grabbed my order for me. i told him it was my first time trying their food, and he excitedly grabbed me a take out menu and hilighted their most popular dishes for me. the atmosphere within the restaurant was clean, modern with a good touch of authenticity. beautiful lantern lights above each booth and table. it felt like a cozy version of a high-end cocktail bar. the lighting was not overbearing at all, and not completely dim to where you struggle to read the menu. i could see myself sitting there until close just enjoying the delicious food and company!
i took the pho home. the broth itself came in a large to-go container with a lid. the cooked chicken breast, noodles, scallions, bean sprouts, and anise(?) came in a to-go box. EVERY ingredient was fresh. the fragrance of the herbs wafted through the air when i opened the “box-o-beauty”. i was highly impressed with the attention to detail, the freshly cut herbs, onions, chicken, noodles. it also came with a small container of hoison sauce and two packets of Sriracha chili. i put the noodles, chicken, and bean sprouts in the bowl. after microwaving the broth (i honestly didn’t have to, it was still hot!), i poured it over the fixins. i then added the garnish, herbs, fresh jalapeno, and scallions. not only did this dish look beautiful, but it was JUST what i needed for the evening. 🙂
the broth itself was quite light, but depending on taste buds could have been eaten as is. i actually liked the fact that it was light because that made it more maliable to work with and season to taste. now in my opinion, those sauces are not a suggestion! they know full well that they have a great relationship with the pho base and ingredients. it came together so perfectly. chicken was not under or overcooked, noodles were not slimy and mushy or hard, everything in this dish was made to order. you can tell that Saigon and the employees take great pride in their food and their vision as a restaurant.
i added half of the hoison sauce from the container, one packet of Sriracha. i tried it and tasting it with the sauces brought everything together- all ingredients in perfect harmony. i will say, i did add my own splash of Kikkoman soy sauce to add a more savory note to the pho itself, as the hoison is good for a robust slightly sweeter flavour, and the Sriracha brings out the other flavours and adds a bit of spice. i would say for to-go orders maybe add one packet of soy sauce? but oh my lord am i impressed.
thank you Saigon for a great first experience! it’s few and far between where i am able to take a chance on a place and have an all around pleasant experience, especially for a dish that can so easily be mucked up or Americanized. i’ve determined you’re the place for pho in Omaha, and i’m excited to try your other dishes!

This will be a new regular date night spot! The vibes were very relaxing, the service was great, and the food was even better! I have a wheat allergy and I loved that they had a gluten free menu with lots of options! The portions were very large and made for great leftovers.

One of our new favorite places!
Its been very hard for me to find a pho that I like and saigon is the very first place that I had my husband trade me meals cause I was just shocked that I could finally be able to eat it and not make a face.
Other places the herbs come in too strong or the meat is overcooked. It’s been a struggle!!
We have stopped by almost 5 times since and we’ve always had such a lovely experience and the food is always been amazing.
Chicken curry
Quang soup
Pad thai
Lemongrass chicken
Galbi
Just some of the dishes we have tried.
Highly recommend!!

The good is good
But the Manager is not friendly
Be careful when you want the extra sauce
They will charge u 0.99
I love the server and food and everything but We just disappointed . This is not about the money ~1 $
N up charge more on top if people pay by card.

Been living her over 20 years just come here because my friend Like food,
but the boss is not friendly.
Be careful when you want the extra sauce;
they will charge you $0.90.
I love the server, the food, and everything, but we are just disappointed. This is not about the money—around $1.
They also charge more on top if people pay by card. ; I only came here because my friend wanted to come, and I never wanted to come.
Worst place in town.
I wish they had a better management team.
But she is the next generation from the parents.
Before, it was better when the parents ran it.
In running a business, you need to be nice to customers and be professional in the food industry
Not recommend!.

The first time I went to this restaurant to try Vietnamese food, it was a very bad experience. I ordered seafood soup and curry fish as the main menu, and before that I ordered two spring rolls and they gave me a little sauce, when I asked for extra sauce they charged me. When I asked the woman at the cashier, it turned out she was the owner, instead of explaining politely, she explained in a high tone and was very rude. She said that wherever you go, all restaurants will charge you for extra sauce with a very arrogant way of speaking. The price of the sauce is only 0.99 but the way she treats guests is very rude. I will definitely never come back to that restaurant.

“Saigon Restaurant is easily one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in Omaha. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, always making you feel right at home. The food is absolutely delicious, with a wonderful taste that shows how fresh everything is. I especially love the chicken salad, which is one of my favorite dishes. You won’t find a better Vietnamese coffee anywhere else in Omaha—it’s truly a must-try. The prices are also very reasonable for the quality you get. Plus, they have great parking, which makes every visit stress-free. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic Vietnamese food and an excellent dining experience.”

This place was AMAZING! The food was absolutely amazing, and the staff was super friendly. We got the beef pho, the “my tho,” and the lemongrass beef bahn mi. The title of “best Vietnamese cuisine” is entirely true, I am just sad that this was only able to be a road trip stop and not a restaurant to visit regularly. Overall, 5/5 stars, would 100% visit again if im passing through.

we recently tried this Vietnamese restaurant, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was not only delicious but also served with impeccable service. One of the highlights was the extensive vegetarian menu, and I was thrilled to find such diverse options.
The Tofu dishes, in particular, were a standout. The Tofu was perfectly cooked, resulting in a delightful crispy texture that added a wonderful contrast to the flavors. The taste of the dishes was incredibly balanced, with just the right blend of savory, sweet, and spicy elements that Vietnamese cuisine is known for.
What truly set this restaurant apart, though, was the excellent service. The staff were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, making dining here a pleasure. The restaurant’s cleanliness also left a lasting impression, ensuring a hygienic and comfortable atmosphere

Came here during the lunch by myself. Sever was quick to get my order. I got the Lemongrass Beef Vermicelli Bowl and eggrolls. The eggs rolls were freshly fried and delicious. They pair perfectly with the cold noodles! The house sauce (sweet oil) is delicious and compliments the eggrolls and vermicelli bowl. The lemongrass beef was tasty. I was very pleased with lunch and the best amount of full!

My husband and I are foodies and we were sad when they closed the location in Downtown. We were so happy to find out there was another location. To say that we are obsessed is an understatement. The food is excellent and the people who work there are outstanding. The attention to customer is admirable. Our go-tos are the pork chop, the galbi, the Vietnamese coffee and the mango sticky rice, of course. But everything else in the menu is as delicious. Thank you for all you do. We would eat here everyday if we could.
