I’ve always been consistently impressed by the exceptional food and service at this restaurant. The majority of the dishes are expertly prepared and beautifully presented, making for a truly delightful dining experience. I highly recommend trying the Grilled pork on rice (Com Tam) and the pork and prawn pancake, which are our staple orders whenever we visit. I’ve patronized countless Com Tam restaurants, but this one remains my absolute favorite. I wholeheartedly endorse this establishment and will continue to return to support their culinary excellence.

Loved the braised pork belly and deep-fried soft-shell crabs. We were quite tired that evening and didn’t eat much, but would have loved to try more dishes otherwise. The cocktails were good and the service was really nice. Will definitely come back next time we’re in Wellington.

Lovely first time dinner here, food was great! I got the vegan curry- very recommended. Service was lovely, all I’d say is the 2012 radio soundtrack sort of brings the atmosphere down. I’d love to hear something closer to home. Definitely will be back soon though.

The food was phenomenal! We got the crispy savory pancakes to share, the spicy beef noodles, beef cheek stew and the braised pork belly. They were all really good!

The grilled pork on rice was absolutely incredible. It was seriously the best I’ve had in the city. I also grabbed some spring rolls for an appetizer, and they were a delicious way to kick off the meal.
Overall, a fantastic experience. Great food, friendly service

An enjoyable and whimsical visit on a VERY busy Wellington Friday night. We were downtown during ‘Wellington On A Plate” and having trouble finding a table. Saigon was able to sit us straight away, and they filled up shortly after.
The wait staff were pleasant, but were quite busy juggling upstairs and downstairs diners, so they forgot about our water and we had to wave them down to place our order. We also ordered spring rolls that never turned up. The food was nice, well presented with authentic tastes. The ribs weren’t incredible, but they weren’t bad. A bit firm, a bit thinner than I’m used to and a bit gristly round the sides.
Overall, a pleasant evening. Thanks for a good night out.

Saigon Van Grill has the best pho and bun in town – hands down. The broth of the pho is amazingly flavourful. I think I’ve tried more or less all their dishes by now and they are all unique with extremely high standards – you won’t be disappointed… Such friendly service too, you’ll feel very welcomed

Pleasant surprise to find authentic Vietnam food. The food was very tasty. The staff was very accomodating. The price was reasonable. Highly recommended.

The servers were not only slow to take our orders, but also to deliver. There were mistakes with both our drink order and our starters (which arrived at the same time as our mains). Their staff seemed overwhelmed, confused and at times, rushed. I was disappointed in my meal (pork belly + eggs), it did not live up to my expectations and at $29 seemed very poor value for money. My friends did, however, enjoy their meals (although they did suggest there were far better Vietnamese food options in Wellington). Unlikely to go back.
