“I ordered the veggie steamed bun and vegetarian ramen, and both were delicious. It was refreshing to find a vegetarian ramen soup with a flavorful base other than miso. The steamed bun was particularly tasty. As a solo diner, I felt comfortable dining alone. The restaurant had a quaint atmosphere, and street parking was available.“
“this is the most amazing banh mi i've ever had !! I'm on a little holiday in boston from london and I've recently fallen in love with banh mi. this has taken the top spot though - the baguette had that perfect crunch and it was overflowing with the filling. such a reasonable price and the service was so fast and lovely :) highly recommend the lemongrass pork !“
“ordered their iced saigonese and iced Càphê Sua Da. both were sooo delicious and they came straight to our table since we used their online ordering system. there's limited seating inside the cafe but they have plenty of outside seating if the weather allows. I saw people stay at the cafe to do some work, so if you're ok with working in a louder environment I think this would be a good spot to work. their drinks were creamy and delicious! the sea salt foam in their iced saigaonese wasn't too overwhelming and both drinks weren't too strong. just the perfect amount of sweetness and coffee.“
“Maybe the best part was the mello jazz that was playing! Very cool and relaxing.I got the chicken rice noodle soup that was perfect for this drizzly and cool day.Generous amounts of delicious shredded chicken and fresh basil made it special.“
“It is hard to beat the offering of this restaurant! They have: good food, affordable prices, relaxed atmosphere and great service!We dinned here twice thus far and will surely return. It is the only place I feel confident to try a new dish without feeling bad about the money (in case I don’t like the dish).At about $50-60 for 2 entrees, one sake and tip, this restaurant is a gem. I don’t remember much from the more expensive restaurants I’ve dinned at (aside from how high the bill was). Because few places elevate cuisine to the level where a $150 bill for 2 people feels like money well spent.So, I am happy we found this restaurant because they got the recipe right: you pay a reasonable price for good food and you get loyal customers!Thank you!“
“I was slightly anxious to enter this place but I don't regret it. It wasn't first time trying a Banh Mi and this place did not disappoint. I'm not a big pork/meat person so the amount of meat the sandwich had was fine for me. Customer service is definitely good as well. As a college student I also think it's pretty affordable and filling. The place is small but I believe that's what gives it it's welcoming ambiance.“
“Stopped by for a rainy weekend late lunch. We were seated right away. I ordered the bun bo hue and it was very good. Soup was savory, not too salty. I ordered the steamed mixed veggies on the side, probably wouldn't do it again for the 3.95 price point - very small portion and the veggies were barely steamed. Good experience overall, will come back just for the bun bo hue!“
“The pho was wonderful -- aromatic broth with beautiful, fresh basil, lime, and sprouts. Not too far from Logan, this place was just right after a gruelling slog from the west coast. The service was great, the price was right, the place was clean, and the food was delicious.“
“Overall rating: 4 Stars A solid banh mi spot but not the top PRO TIP: ONLY BANH MI SPOT I'VE FOUND SO FAR THAT DOES TOFU/VEGAN BANH MIFood: banh mi, baos, eggrolls, and vietnamese coffeeTexture: banh mi, the baguettes were fresh and crispy the pickled vegetables gave a nice crunch as well! Pricing: the banh mi here are on the steeper side going for $9 but it's probably due to being in the middle of Boston! A vietnamese coffee is $6Ambiance: The ambiance is unique, it's a mixture of a bunch of refurbished decor my friends and I find it funny when we see the American/pirate tablesSeating & Parking: 2 seats by the wall facing the banh mi counter and 4 seats to the left by the window, there is no parkingService: straight forward, may have a language barrier but the ladies there are kindMusic: noneBathroom: noneFinal comments: solid banh mi spot for lunch, fast service“
“How come I have to travel all the way to Dorchester to get really good Vietnamese food? Regardless, this place is worth the trip. The soup is hearty and the garnishes they provide for it are excellent. The Thai Tea smoothie is one of my favorite dessert drinks I've ever had. Summer rolls are excellent. Short wait times. Low prices. Plenty of seating for larger parties. This place is in a league of its own. I don't want that trendy hot pot stuff when I want a bowl of soup - just give me my Pho Le.“
“Sandwiches are incredible.My favorite is the Roast Pork Banh mi.Would have posted a photo but demolished the sandwich.Everything is fresh.The parking lot is fast and furious.Coffee is great espresso with condensed milk DELICIOUS..Cash onlyEasier, if you speak Vietnamese..Parking: Very busy parking lot“
“We’re from New York, we were recommended to go here by the locals at the Asian market (truong thinh supermarket)and Vietnamese jewelry store. They recommended Saigon #1. We’ve only been there during lunch, My parents and I ordered the family style meal and it was so good! Offer a way better variety than the Viet restaurants in the Albany, NY area. Service was good, staff was friendly. I recommend this place if you’re in the area for a family style meal!“
“I love this place so much. My boyfriend introduced me to this place and I can't help but to come back for more. The bahn mi sandwhiches are AMAZING and I always get either the cold cut or the bbq pork. The service is amazing and very quick. The ambiance of the store is little and dainty, but they get the job done. I love this place with all my heart.“
“I enjoy stopping to get Pho here after the Boston Marathon. Stopped in on 4/16 and received poor customer service. It was mid afternoon and not too busy as there were tables open. I was seated with a glass of water and a menu. Each time I looked up the person who sat me would say in a minute. I waited on staff to return and they never did. I watched as several customers after me were seated and their orders were taken and brought to them within minutes of arriving. Trying to give the benefit of the doubt, I waited, and after more than 12 minutes I got up and flagged someone down.The server seemed to not understand that I was wanting to order and that I had been sitting there without ordering until a customer, gentleman (who came in after me and had his meal) spoke up loudly and told him that I wanted to order. Thanking him for his help I offered to pay for his meal (he graciously declined).I finally received my food and it was good, but the poor service saddened me. Hope this was a fluke.“
“Com tam, huge portion size, meat was flavorful and the sides were good.Pho, lack flavor.Crab and port soup, good flavors.Bun bo hue, lacked flavor and spiciness but has a lot of ingredients.Fried spring rolls, feels like packaged food.Sugar cane shrimp, too greasy, also feels packaged.Red bean milk, delicious.Egg soda, delicious.“
“Hubby and I have been here a few times and it has never disappointed. I wasn't able to capture what we ordered to eat because we dove right in lol. We ordered 2 salt and pepper twin lobsters, salt and pepper shrimp, pea pod stems with garlic and salted fish fried fish. Everything was delicious especially for the price. We will definitely be frequent customers.“
“I went here twice during my trip to Boston. The pho and the rice dishes are so, so good! The portion sizes are a bit small for the price, but well worth it for how delicious everything is. There seems to be only one lady doing everything in the front, she is very kind and efficient!“
“Ugh best coffee and banh mi in town but man I hate how cheap these Vietnamese workers act as if we're in Vietnam. So much aggression when requesting for extra butter in the banh mi. I've been a customer here for 20 years and it's always been like this that's why I don't come a lot. Like charge me for it or put less meat on. Don't tell me that it's enough if I say add more then just do it for gods sake. I even had a friend ask for more butter and the lady said it would make her fat. Ordered on uber eats where you can pay an extra 50cents for more butter and still had a dry ass banh mi. Stop acting so goddamn cheap“
