Fantastic pho, I was overjoyed to find a good pho place so near to home, the only negative, for me, is the TV's. But the staff is friendly and the service is fast.

Great tasty food with fresh ingredients. Lots of authentic menu choices, roomy dining room, and very friendly staff. It felt like we were on vacation somewhere eating at a local restaurant. Very fun.

Pho was excellent! And I love a good Crab Rangoon. Both items were cooked perfectly. Will be back!

88 Saigon is a truly a hidden GEM. The staff treated me like family and was VERY respectful. The food was amazing! I especially enjoyed the Vietnamese spring rolls! They were perfectly wrapped with the BEST peanut sauce. The pho is the perfect meal in winter especially. I HIGHLY recommend everyone checks this place out! You will not be disappointed.

Food was better than I expected and not a bad price. The dining room is very roomy and big and clean and modern. The reason of the 4 star because of staffing. There were inly 2 people that i see that does everything from making the food at the sushi bar and a lady that takes care of the dining area and checking in and checking out. We went for lunch on a sunday and there were only couple of tables with customers and they seemed overwhelmed. Maybe someone called off due to this crazy covid world we live in.Update: 1/9. Picked up to go beef tendon pho, shrimp rolls and pork bahn mi. Everything is great. Service has gotten much faster.

We came to dine-in around 8pm, they close at 9pm. When it was 10 min until close, the workers in the back looked mad and frustrated, pointing at us speaking in their language as we were finishing up eating. Felt very uncomfortable after that. Looks like they were waiting for us to finish eating so me and my family felt rushed. They had our waitress remind us that they close at 9pm. If you work in a the restaurant business, you are going to have customers who may stay and eat a little past your closing time. We left at 9:02pm. Waitress was very nice. Food was mid, not all that great-being Asian myself. Definitely had better but this restaurant is down the street from our house and we wanted some soup. We will definitely not dine in or carry out again because of this experience. Overall, very rude workers in the back and food isn’t that great. Will tell family and friends to not come here!

Stingy as hell with the sauces. Ask for extra hoisan or Sriracha you either don't get extra or they give you one extra little squirt of it in a cup and one extra packet. They don't even give you enough sauce to eat one egg roll for an order of 5. Love the food but can't stand having to beg to eat the food the way I like it. I'm paying 20 dollars for a bowl of broth and vegetables don't don't be cheap.

The most flavourful, perfect Vietnamese food I have ever had. I got the Massaman curry, crab Rangoon, and Thai tea with boba. I'm in a food coma now ?
