  • The trek from Ahwatukee to Glendale is loooong, but luckily I have family in these parts, so we come here often. Hands down, the best Vietnamese food I've had in the valley, no contest. The place is a very small converted house, and truly, because of the size, you feel as if you are there for a friend's homecooking rather than at a fancy restaurant. So small in fact, that if you have a large party (which they can absolutely accommodate, by the way) you should call ahead. I know some people call this a pho restaurant (and the pho is good - not the best I've ever had, but good) but really, it is absolutely a Vietnamese restaurant first and foremost. Given the extensive menu with a long list of homestyle dishes, pho doesn't take a backseat, but it's certainly not the star of the show. The one thing that I love about Little Saigon is that every dish comes with copious condiments. Cha gio (crispy spring rolls) come with mounds of lettuce, cilantro, mint, carrots and daikon with bright nuoc mam (fish sauce) for dipping. All of the soups include cilantro, mint, basil, bean sprouts, jalapeno and lime - I will instantly dock points if I'm having pho and I don't get all of the above. Plus, crazy good dishes like the Curry Catfish with Black Pepper Sauce (served on a sizzling plate for two) come with rice and lettuce for wrapping as well. Favorites of mine are the Summer Rolls with tasty shrimp and bits of grilled beef, Bun with Grilled Pork, the Pho with Meatballs and the Caramelized Catfish. Even the fried rice that my husband always gets is savory goodness. One important thing to note, though the waiters are perennially friendly and bustling, and the owner/chef is fabulous, this is not the place to make special recommendations or changes to the dishes. If you are a fussy eater or want things your way, 9 times out of 10, you will not win that battle. We've been coming here a while, and have seen some interesting antics between the kitchen and the dining room. Just order and enjoy, the food truly is so good, you shouldn't have to make special requests as it is. Very very worth the trip to Glendale. I'm jealous of you guys, west side!
