| - The raving about the curry crab is for real. Try them, you won't be disappointed. The four of us at dinner almost licked the plate clean. Oh, and do not forget to order the bread to go with the curry - light and fluffy on the inside, crispy on the outside, warm from the oven. Better than a real bakery.
Beyond the crab, the rest of the food that we ordered was above average good, but not the best I've had. Sour and spicy shrimp soup (we ordered the fish soup, but they gave us the shrimp on, oh well) was well done but not sour enough. BBQ pork neck also flavourful but not crunchy enough. The Vietnamese flour roll was decent, but have had better downtown at Que Ling (where it remains in my opinion, the best flour roll in the city). Veggies were well done but very salty.
On the whole, however, I would recommend Saigon Star as an excellent place for non-Pho Vietnamese food. Certainly, I will be back to try their other items.
