Reviews Bistro Du Saigon

Came in for a late lunch on a Saturday at around 2 pm with a party of four. It was still pretty busy at the time, since people kept coming in as we were eating. To start, we had the crispy spring rolls and the summer rolls. The crispy spring rolls were pretty good, but I just wish they were a little bit bigger in size. It's probably about 2/3 the size of a Vietnamese spring roll you'd find anywhere else. Summer rolls were pretty standard - nothing outstanding but nothing to complain about either. We also got the classic banh mi, which I really enjoyed. I honestly wasn't expecting much but it might even be one of the best banh mis I've ever had. A lot of banh mis skimp on the meat but not here. There was a good amount in there, and it was evenly spread, which I really appreciated (since most other banh mis play too much and have the meat on the bottom, and the veggies on top). For my main, I had the Vietnamese Spicy Noodles Soup (spicy lemongrass beef broth served with sliced brisket). The spicy lemongrass flavor was a nice change from your typical beef pho. However, it was a little bit oily and I left feeling extremely thirsty. Overall, it was a pretty great meal and I wouldn't mind coming back to try some of their other dishes. It was a toss-up between the spicy noodle soup and the rice vermicelli platter, so I guess I'll be ordering the latter next time!

Excellent soups and appetizers. Very quick and friendly service. Space inside has even increased for more seating room. Prices are extremely reasonable
