This is the second time I visit this restaurant and the first time only tried their rare beef pho. This time we decided to try their daily special beef carpaccio. It was like a beef sashimi with a rich sour sauce. It tasted really good but may not be for everyone. The satay pho tasted good but wish the soup base was more rich in taste. Spring rolls were great nice and crispy. Overall food was good but there’s room for improvement for the price point.
I had some delicious food here and the service was quick and friendly. I ordered the mango salad with soft shell crab, which was very good. The grilled pork and chicken were nice, and the shrimp pad Thai was absolutely delicious.
Been here a few times and their food is always good. Their prices are a little more on the pricier side but you get quality and great portion sizes. The platter is definitely my favourite. The presentation of everything is beautiful and they have unique drinks available too!
First time going here. Amazing food and service.The staff was very friendly . Was fully worth the drive. Very flavourful dishes and good portions for the price.
I had an amazing experience at Dear Saigon! The food was absolutely delicious — full of flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere and ambience were warm, modern, and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. The service was top-notch as well — friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a memorable dining experience!
Really good authentic Vietnamese restaurant with good tasting food and good sized portions. Food is on the pricier side compared to other Vietnamese restaurants, but the decor here is more upscale. Expect to wait for a table during busy times. I ordered an item, which apparently was not available, but the waitress never came back to tell me. After I followed up, they realized their mistake, and offered me a free entree to make up for it. Glad to see they were honest, apologized and offered something in return. I will return to this restaurant.
Please don’t crowd this place, I need to be able to get a seat everytime I go lol! Omgsh the food was absolutely delicious, the crab spring rolls were a 10/10, the coconut Vietnamese coffee was an 100/10! I enjoyed my meal so much! My partner had the rice platter with chicken and pork and loved it, they also had the ginger Vietnamese coffee which was amazing as well! The flavours are perfect and the coffees weren’t overly sweet! The servers were friendly and very swift! I will be back soon to try the Banh Khot and Bun Bo Hue! Also, the decor is very cute!
Food really rich and staff very accommodating! I only came here 2 times and everything is always great. Ordered porkchop dish at the bottom of menu. It tasted very good :) Came here to catch up with my friend
