  • Note: This rating is just for the Viet offering of this restaurant. A Chinese food review could have been different but since I did not try any of those dishes this is all that I had to go by... I think the name here is a bit deceiving because even though it has "Saigon" in it, this place was more of a Chinese-pseudo Vietnamese cuisine. I had been a tourist in the area and wanted to try authentic Vietnamese food and Pho and I chose this place because it had the most number of ratings and positive reviews. However, after we sat down we sort of regretted it because it's not really the place to for what I had in mind. Also, the Viet food itself was mediocre and had a lot of ingredients substitution. The first clue is that everything on the menu was in English with English descriptions, nothing written in Viet or Chinese. We ended ordering what we think was Pho but it was called more like "noodle in beef broth" and my hubby ordered a version of the vermicelli noodles with grilled pork. They substituted the noodles, spices in my soup was different too. It didn't have the Pho smell. Overall, the piece wasn't bad, I think we had two lunch entrees for $15 and they were nice enough to accept half American and half Canadian money. I think if you are a Westerner, it probably wouldn't make a difference because the food isn't bad, but if you are an avid Viet foodie, you can skip over to a more authentic place over in the next plaza. Be careful though because there are a lot of Chinese/pseudo Vietnamese eateries in the area. I'm not sure if it's entirely possible to find an authentic Viet place in this part of town but you can try, just be on the lookout if Pho is listed as "Noodle in Beef Broth" or something like that. If you want a tip: go to the Old Chinatown part of Toronto, there is more legit Viet menus there.
