| - We stayed in an apartment not far from this restaurant and ended up eating from there twice - the first time, three of us dined at the restaurant on a weekday night. The food was very good and the service was friendly, but it was rather slow. We all ordered the same main dish - noodles with meat and an eggroll - and yet the table next to us who arrived after us got their appetizers and main courses before we had anything of ours. Not an awful wait, but a little annoying since they only had 4 tables occupied.
The following Saturday, we had a group of friends over and were planning to order pizza when one suggested Vietnamese. We couldn't find a menu for Cafe Saigon online, unfortunately, so my husband called the restaurant and asked for a suggestion of dishes for 8 people. The gentleman who answered the phone suggested a mix of chicken, beef, and shrimp dishes. We also ordered some eggrolls. We were told the food would be ready in 15 minutes. We went promptly to pick it up and lo and behold, despite the fact that the restaurant was pretty crowded, it was boxed up and ready to go. They were just packing up some sauces and some coriander on the side, and they were kind enough to throw in a few extras, utensils, and fortune cookies. Our guests raved about the food and the price was very reasonable. Everyone was really impressed.
Good prices and excellent food. Service seems a bit better on the weekends. We would definitely eat there again.
