Little Saigon

Authentic Vietnamese restaurant. The pho was excellent. The melon shake was unique and pretty good too"The restaurant was spacious with plenty of seating and looked clean and well kept. We'd come again.

Been here a couple times. My dad frequents here and it is one of his favorite restaurants. The Pho is very good and authentic! We’ve had several different kinds. I’m not adventurous so I stick with either chicken or the rare beef. My dad likes the beef: beef, brisket and tendon.. and beef, tripe, tendon

My family visited this charming restaurant for the first time, yesterday. We wanted to try a different Vietnamese restaurant as all family members love the cuisine. There was a huge array of pho (rice noodle soup) and bun(vermicelli noodle soup), Bún Nước Mắm(Fish Sauce Dishes). I really appreciated that you could order family style meals to share. The Pho with rare beef, and tendon was delicious as was the vermicelli bowl with grilled pork and spring rolls. My daughter enjoyed the #9 chicken with rice that had decadent savory grilled onion. I'll admit that I ate her onions in exchange for some of my soup broth and rice noodles. The strawberry smoothies have a creamy texture and bright flavor from perhaps a little lime juice. 10/10 from my kid as well who ate heartily. We plan on going back to try other dishes and buy toys from the cool gashapon style vending machines in the front of the restaurant.

Came here twice. Large selections available including vegetarian options, you can ask to switch the type of noodles. The food is nice quality except the pho broth is rather sweet compared to an authentic taste. Pricing is good considering the portion. Atmosphere is decent and spacious with plently of seating, clean tables and washroom.

I’ve been in the area for the last few weeks for work, and I’ve craved comfort Vietnamese food as I can’t cook at the hotel. I’ve tried a few Vietnamese restaurants out, but this restaurant is the best so far. I’ve been to the restaurants twice, and both times, the staff was super nice, friendly and professional. The restaurant itself was really clean. The first time I came here, I ordered number 65 (Vietnamese caramelized shrimps and pork). The portion was huge for the price, I got two meals out of it. The dish didn’t come with a side of broth, but I asked if I could get a small bowl of soup, the waiter was really nice and said he could get it for me. The dish itself was savory and flavorful which paired so well with white rice. It reminded me so much of a homecooked meal my mom usually made. The second time, I ordered number 32 (egg noodle and clear noodle with beef stew soup). I asked for only egg noodle, and had no problem. The beef stew was so flavorful, it tasted like heaven. The portion was huge; the egg noodle had great texture. The dish came with lots of different cut of meat: beef shanks, tendon, beef fat which I love so much. I ordered coffee both time, and it always tastes so good. I’m definitely going to come back here in the future. I’m also going to recommend this restaurant to all my friends, family and coworkers.

There are many options for Vietnamese in the area. All of them better. Most boring pho I've ever had. Lovely staff and atmosphere tho

Food is fresh, fast and delicious. Extensive menu. Clean restaurant with partitions between tables, social distancing, masks etc..Our favorites are the Beef Pho and the marinated Pork Chop. Prices very reasonable. Service is good but minimal.

Pho was decent, sizes varies, I got a regular good portion. My husband got a large, decent noodle portion. I was confused about our server/waiter/waitress. The guy seats us, a lady takes order and serves us, then the guy comes back and refull water. But overall service was great. The guy who seats us is very friendly and kind. I brought my baby in carseat, and he offered to give us the highchair and even flipped it upside down as well! Everything was full filling. I would definitely come back. First time I've been to a pho place that serves culantro on the side, which is a plus! I love culantro in my pho, and not many places serve that!

First off, it has a diverse menu and some of the specialties not seen around. The prices are great and the flavor is close to home. Will be back, motivated and committed to go around the entire menu here!

Stopped by after the place was recommended by my nephew. I liked that they open at 10am, so that was an added plus! We got seated right away and after reviewing the menu, went with the following items: #1, #21, #23, #5 & #62 Favorite was #1 - minced shrimp on sugarcane, don't be fooled by the photo, you only get 2 pieces :) This reminded me of fish cake, which I love! Definitely would recommend this if you never tried. #5 - pork chops - excellent, the pork was moist and juicy, not dried out. Bit too much of rice, but overall excellent. #21 & #23 - Pho - while it was decent, wasn't fan of their pho broth. Frankly speaking, had better pho broth at other locations. Walk away bit disappointed. #62 - shrimp and pork lotus salad - while this was good, was not of the fan of the pork ears that was used. Service was decent, the ambiance - your standard Asian restaurant look and feel :) Next time I swing by, I'll have to try #59/#61, #55 - grilled sausage, #51 - vermicelli with grilled pork sausage and egg rolls. For now 3 stars on first experience. When done eating, pay at the front.

The service is excellent, very friendly and welcoming . Ordered- 1) summer rolls - they were fresh, huge and perfect! The peanut sauce was delicious. 2) spring rolls- they were delicious and deep fried to perfection. 3) grilled beef over rice with fried egg- the beef was so tasty and the rice was cooked perfect and delicious. 4) Pho - fantastic! 5)Vietnamese coffee- amazing! And they give you the most delicious tea!!! Our waiter was so attentive and professional. I love the vibe here and it's CLEAN! I give them ten stars

The bun with chicken and egg roll is good too! Consistency is very good. The chicken is well cooked and the egg roll is tasty. I like the grilled onions.

I've been told that Little Saigon now holds the unofficial "best pho" in the area, so I wanted to give it a try while I was visiting family. My mom and I stopped by for lunch yesterday. The service was great, and a couple servers checked in on us throughout our meal. The interior is large with lots of seating, so we weren't worried about having to wait. 18. Phở Đặc Biệt - 13.95 First thing I noticed was how thick each piece of onion was, lol. The broth is on the darker side and upon first sip, definitely one of the best broths I've had in the area. It has a deep beef flavor and a bit of sweetness from the onions. There were plenty of beef, tendon, tripe and meatball in my bowl of pho. The only thing I didn't like about the pho was the texture of the noodles, which were kind of stuck together and on the soggier/mushier side. It definitely messed with the flavor of the broth after awhile. Lots of noodles, and because I didn't like the texture, I didn't end up finishing. Overall, not bad. I really liked the pho broth here.

Delicious pho and great service! I had carry out and food was ready so quickly. Looks like a very popular place to go have a sit down meal. I will be coming back to dine in!

Busy here. Ordered Vermicelli with shrimp, veggie summer roll, chicken pho and an avocado shake. $38.05. The service was cold and indifferent. Waiter was quite bothered when I told him the first avocado shake had no avocado in it. The second one he made didn't either. That's got to be powdered. Do skip the avocado shake, tastes like only like a milk shake and no avocado, tastes like it's made from dairy powder too. :/ I was also bummed to be reminded that that they are very much against small business and thus don't accept American Express card at all! :(

The pho tai here is awesome. We were promptly sat and ordered our food quickly. The service was great and provided us with all the proper sides to fully enjoy our pho. It's a cozy restaurant for these cold days with a warm atmosphere and great food. I highly recommend trying little Saigon.

Not sure if we went on the wrong day, but our group was craving noodle soup after a night out and were recommended this place by an acquaintance. The girls that ordered the Pho said that their broth was lacking flavor and that their noodles were a little too hard. I ordered the Bun Mam, and also thought that it was really bland. I was expecting a stronger shrimp paste flavor, but all I could really taste was a light soup with a slightly spicy flavor. I will say though that the portion sizes were big for the price - just wish there was more depth in flavor. Their homemade soy milk was bomb, and the viet iced coffee was good too. Both the fried and fresh spring rolls were very tasty!

TLDR : Anthony Bourdain told us to embrace the hole in the wall locations as they serve up the best meals...this is one of them. Since moving back from Westminster, California, I have sought after an authentic bowl of pho... after a recommendation I can finally say that it has been found. The interior is very clean with a very attentive staff. Upon ordering the pho immediately bring out a tray of fresh bean sprouts, mint, jalapeños. The staff takes their time to explain the menu or answer any questions that you may have. The food was amazing. The bowl came out piping hot, the noodles were fresh, and all the vegetables in my bowl still had the perfect crunch to it. They made me want to continue to put my chopsticks in for more and more. I gave this restaurant a four out of five only because the wait time experience for the food to come out of the kitchen was longer than expected. We did come to this restaurant with someone who has been here prior, and this was made aware to us after we waited for quite some time.

Been coming here on and off for years - even before the remodel and expansion. And as always, the food here is yummy in the tummy. They gotta up there game cuz there's strong viet competition in the area. The pho is not too salty and got a nice sweetness to it. This is nice since you can always add more flavor via sauces and such but it's hard to subtract. The vermicelli bowls are also nicely flavored and not too strong even with all the sauce being poured into it. Basically you won't be so thirsty afterwards which is sometimes the case w/ super salty/msg foods. They've also got cleaner and seeming more hygienic since the refresh. Service was good and the food came out pretty quickly too. All in all, a great food and ambiance.

I was craving some soup to complement the cold Michigan weather. When I called, they said that the only pescatarian soup option was the veggie pho. A little disappointed, but oh well. When I arrived to pick it up, the first thing I noticed is how amazing it smells inside the restaurant due to all the intense Vietnamese aromatics. I only did carry out so I can't comment on the wait service, although I barely had to wait to pay for my to-go order and it was ready in the 10 minutes they quoted me on the phone. Regarding the food, I wasn't impressed with the vegetarian pho broth as it was seriously lacking in flavor. Thankfully it was a large portion and they included all of the standard pho toppings as well as steamed vegetables (cabbage and broccoli). The tofu summer rolls definitely saved the meal. I could tell they were made fresh and the peanut sauce was to die for. I appreciate that they also serve it with crushed peanuts on the side for that added texture!

Very good! Very decent pho. Delivered. Had pho ga, which is chicken pho. Delicious soul warming broth. Not overly salty and didn't need water after. 8.5/10 broth. Had traditional pho garnishes - bean sprouts, chilies, culantro, basil, lime/lemon. What I liked was the 1) the portion (value) and 2) the chicken. I eat a lot, and could barely finish this. They don't skimp on the chicken, and the chicken was deliciously tender and went surprisingly well with the broth. I am so used to beef in pho that I had doubts about this, but it turned out so so well. Very tender that soaked up the broth. I would hands down would order it again. Will think of *chicken* pho differently from now on bc of this restaurant. I tried to call them regarding the delivery order, but it went straight to VM. Thankfully it turned out great but would have helped to call and clarified my order.

Excellent Vietnamese location. Got their spring rolls and the beef stew noodle soup. Both are 10/10. Very reasonable pricing, and you can add $1 to make any entree extra large. I got the XL noodle soup which lasted me 2 meals. Beef is so tender it has a pull-pork texture. Soup is perfectly seasoned and flavored. Also love the egg noodle mixed with some glass noodle inside. Spring rolls are very fresh and pairs well with the peanut sauce. Service is also excellent. Our server spent a significant amount of time going to different entree options. Very patient and friendly!

My team at work went here for a lunch. I had the claypot catfish which was very tasty, but many of my coworkers were not happy with their meals. I saw one plate with the smallest piece of chicken I have ever seen. That aside, the Vietnamese coffee is a must if you go here! We did get our food pretty quick for a large group so that was a plus.

The best pho I've had in the area. The ingredients are not as Americanized as a lot of the pho around town. Service is not always phenomenal but good quality enough to keep me coming back! If you like Pho and want great pho, this is the place to go!

I feel like I've had food from Little Saigon at least 5 times, and a review is due. Bun Bo Hue was delicious, and a generous portion! Everything I've ever had from this place has been delicious. Good staff, clean place.

Great service, great ambiance, always great food and favorite spot for Phö in Detroit and metro.

Amazing service and very good pho! They even have vegetarian options for pho which i have not tried yet. Ambiance is really cute and you can tell the food will be so tasty and authentic. Summer rolls are also delicious.

This is a great place to go for some authentic Vietnamese food. Pho is their specialty, and I really enjoyed their take on the Vietnamese classic. The broth wasn't too oily (which is always such a huge plus) so I didn't feel gross after I was done eating it. It felt like just the right balance of tastiness and comfort food at the same time. The summer rolls also tasted fresh and authentic. This isn't the kind of Vietnamese food I would go out of my way for, but if it was nearby and we were in the mood, it'd would be a solid choice for us to go. The service was solid as well. It didn't take us long to get a table or for us to receive our food. If anything, they accidentally upgraded one of our bowl after a misunderstanding but didn't make a fuss. They just charged us as if they had given us the regular sized like we ordered. Currently, the tables are spaced out along the edges of the room with plastic dividers between each table due to COVID. I think we got lucky with a table that was far and away from everyone else around us, but overall, it seemed like they were making an honest effort to keep everyone as safe as possible.

While planning our wedding's traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony to take place at my parents' home in Michigan, we wanted to find a restaurant that could provide authentic Vietnamese entrees to feed and please both our Vietnamese and American families after the ceremony. Little Saigon did exactly this! We ordered several catering trays from them, and the owner was incredible to work with and very kind, flexible, and accommodating, which was greatly appreciated in the midst of wedding planning stress. The restaurant was also able to deliver our catering order to the house which made things so much easier on the day of our event! All of the food was delicious. We highly recommend Little Saigon for any event or for regular dining-in or take out! They are now our go-to Vietnamese restaurant when we're in town.

Family vacation 2021...bringing the California variant of COVID-19 to your city. Little Saigon was a nice surprise for me. I work close to the real Little Saigon in Southern California. I know my Vietnamese food. Little Saigon is legit when it comes to Vietnamese food in the Detroit area. I ordered a Com Tam Little Saigon Dac Biet and a Hu Tieu Mi Dac Biet. The com tam (broken rice) came with a pork chop, shredded pork skin, bean curd skin with shrimp and a fried egg. The only thing missing was their egg cake. Everything was delicious. The Hu Tieu was also really good. It was so good that my daughter ate it all without sharing any of it. Service was good I called them and gave my order. I paid as soon as I arrived. The server was friendly and they brought my order out to me. My order was take out as we didn't feel comfortable eating indoors yet. It was a very good experience. I'm glad I ended up here. It was almost as good as some of the food found in the Little Saigon in Southern California. The food was good. Service was good. I couldn't ask for anything more.

I definitely recommend the grilled pork chop (#5). That dish is absolute perfection here. The employees are helpful and friendly. However, expect to walk to the counter if you need anything after your food has arrived. It can be difficult to flag someone down.

Amazing atmosphere, Amazing Food and Amazing service!!! I love the fresh rolls and spring rolls!!! The PHO is clean and loaded!!! Excellent. Vietnamese coffee is sooo good!! They offered free tea and that also was fantastic!!! The food here is too good and I'm so impressed with the friendly service!!!! I'll be back.

Feeling a little under the weather so I ordered some Pho for takeout. Online ordering was simple & I received texts letting me know the status of my order. The estimated time was 20-40 min, which seemed long but it was 12:30p on a Friday, I should have expected it to be busy. The order was ready in 22 min. When we got home we boiled the broth and then added all the fixings to our bowls. Everything was included even packets of sauce. Perfect lunch!

Some of the best broth I've had in a pho restaurant. The vegetables were super fresh and had great variety. Their meat was rare which made it soft and delicious. The portions were also great and, compared to pho places in Ann Arbor, prices were a few dollars cheaper. Definitely a nice place to eat :)

I love their food here. I always change up my dishes and they never disappoint. From the pho broth is not salty like most places and they give you all the proper herbs that comes with it. The dry noodle bowls are one of my favs and then I switch up and get more traditional like the canh chua soup. They're always clean and friendly and happy they expanded the space.

It you are looking for true authentic Vietnamese food look no further! I've been searching for a particular dish and I found it here almost better than any I've had before. The meal I chose is called Bún Thịt Nướng Chả Giò (Vermicelli with Grilled Pork and Egg Rolls) my hubby chose stir fry noodles with beef. Only thing he said is he wishes there was more beef but flavor was yummy! It's a drive for me but I'll be making the trip at least once a month to satisfy my love of this awesome food. Give it a try and if you don't know what to order the waiter we had was amazing, offered great suggestions and explained what the items were.

Pho is so good. Their service is good. Place is spacious and I think it needs more love in their interior designs but overall, good spot to grab pho. They have 2 bathrooms, one for mens and one for women's but they should remodel it and make it into a few stalls so that way customers don't have to wait awhile to use it. It happens whenever I'm there and I think it just sucks to have to wait to use the bathroom. Because when you need to go, you gotta go. Love the pho. Like their service. It's a win win.

This is a must go to place! Was recommended by a friend and was not disappointed. Food is very unique and clean! Workers are very friendly and extremely generous with the portion amounts !

I feel like I used to love this place but it is just mediocre these days. They used to have a veggie pho on their menu, then they took it off for some reason. But we were told to just select chicken and add veggie pho in the comment section. And I would say only 60% of the time it ends up actually being veggie. Today my husband specifically asked if it was veggie pho and they told him yes, then got home and it was chicken - with tripe mixed in. My husband asked for a substitution on his noodles and got half, if even that, of what they would normally give. We had to cook more noodles ourselves. Lately the flavor has also been lacking a bit.

I guess the 3rd time is the charm here for me! They are just under a 5 based on my 3 times now I've eaten here. Went tonight as my favorite Vietnamese restaurant is closed on Wednesday's and I was craving Vietnamese. Tonight I gave them another chance as my Vietnamese friends tell me this is the best or one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in the area. I don't know if it was just because I ordered something different or what it was, but my meal was fantastic! I ordered the #8, cum suon (pork chops with rice and I added a fried egg). They also give you the garlic fish sauce which was tasty (think they had sugar and other places don't) and an onion soup. Delicious pork chops! Next time I will possibly try the #5. My first two times here I thought the food was just okay, had ordered lemongrass chicken and bun, and if I remember correctly I thought they were a bit greasy. The service was good and they did a great job with Covid protocols, (sign in, partitions, spaced tables and plenty hand sanitizer stands). I'm definitely coming back here and not waiting 2 years before I do!

Good bun, pho, fried rice. Fresh rolls and fried spring rolls good too. Very pleased! They packaged crushed peanuts separate from the sauce with fresh rolls in our Grubhub order--small details like this show that a restaurant cares about quality.

One of my favorite things about traveling, especially to international destinations, is the food. I love exploring a new place through its cuisine. When I return home, the highest compliment I can pay to a restaurant is that it transports me. A bowl of pho ga, consumed at my makeshift table, which is also my desk, while working from home during a kitchen renovation during a pandemic did just that. I was suddenly on the streets of Saigon (where I was in January of 2019). I was on the beach at Phu Quoc island. I was on a boat, cruising on the Mekong River and experiencing the floating markets. Pho ga is such a simple food. Noodles, rich broth, fresh herbs like basil, cilantro and scallion; bean sprouts and chicken. This is a dish that is more than the sum of its parts. Perfect for a cold December day in Michigan, but also light enough to be equally perfect in the sun and heat of its homeland. Little Saigon executes this simple soup excellently. The portion was large enough for two meals. My spouse ordered the Korean beef, which was kalbi (Korean short ribs) served with rice and a cabbage salad with a kimchi-ish dressing. The beef was tender enough to cut with a plastic knife and tasted just right (impressive for a restaurant that doesn't bill itself as Korean). The cabbage was just okay--kimchi doesn't translate well. The rice was amazing, though and that's how I know Little Saigon is the real deal. One other thing I learned in Vietnam is that they say they make the best rice in all of Asia. The rice was different in Vietnam and I hadn't tasted rice quite like that again until now.

My favorite place ever to have pho I have tried other items on menu which are also delicious but this is my all time staple. Always fresh ingredients and the staff are all super friendly and make sure you are enjoying your meal. Social distancing and safety is an absolute priority before entering. Please support this local restaurant the next time your in the mood for some authentic food dine in or carry out. Try the hot tea too!! Sorry no alcohol served here.

The best Vietnamese food that I have (yet) enjoyed in SE Michigan. Loved my bowl of pho - rare beef and meatballs. Hot food, served hot. Served with a side of fresh, crisp, clean veggies. The spring roll was fresh. The staff is prompt, attentive and knowledgeable. Plenty of nearby parking. The only difficulty was my skills with plastic chopsticks. They are much slicker than wood, so I struggled a bit with using them for the noodles.

This was the second time we came here. First time we came for dinner and had pho, and this time we returned for lunch to try different things since it was so good the first time. The pho was better this time, the Bun Rieu was surprisingly good, and the Bun Dac Biet was my favorite. Their fish sauce that goes with the Bun Dac Biet (vermicelli noodles) is the best. I'd buy them in bottles if they sold them.

After a few years I decided to come back and try this play again. Low and behold, they were under new management! I'm very happy with their service and the fact that pretty much all their foods are good. I think I come here 4/7 days or the week. My kids love the food here. Would recommend.

Really delicious Vietnamese food! We've gotten carry out and it's so beautifully packaged too. Enjoying a Little Saigon very much! Great value too

I will admit that I do not know much about Vietnamese cooking. We really enjoyed everything that we ate. We started with the spring and summer rolls. I had the pork chop that seemed to be on the Korean BBQ side. My wife had one of the beef pho dishes. I would like to go back and try some of the other dishes

The customer service is 100% great! The food isn't too bad got bun Bo hue, something taste like it was missing though. I give it 3 stars because we ordered 2 Che ba mau to go, I came home all happy to eat it and then I opened the ice cup! Hoping it was the shaved ice but it wasn't!! I was so upset. And my Che cup had a crack in it and it was leaking.

I have been here so many times and can never remember to take a picture because whenever the food comes out I am chowing down! Yes, this place is Viet approved! Yes, my Vietnamese parents beg me to bring this to them whenever I come to town, despite knowing how to make our own. Yes, my very vanilla boyfriend wanted to eat here over pizza and burgers. So Yes, I recommend this place 100 times over any other Vietnamese restaurant! The Pho Dac Biet and Com Suon are always my go to's and I have never been disappointed. Seriously this place is THAT good.

Best Vietnamese restaurant in the Detroit metropolitan area. Been going to this restaurant 10+ years and it never disappoints. The pork dish with broken rice is by far the best.

Food is delicious and fairly priced. Servers are polite. The place looks decent and clean. Serving time is not that quick but i guess thats a good thing because they may be cooking the food correctly.

Fantastic. So clean.. so prepared for Covid-19 Hand sanitizer station every corner. Also great food

Discovered this place heading home from class one rainy night and my pho cravings kicked in. Called an order for pickup and It was being bagged up when I arrived. Located in a strip mall, this place isn't hard to miss at night. There are bright neon green lights all around the windows and doors. Walking In, it's not the typical pho restaurant with CNN playing on the tv and some 90s music. There are TVs playing music videos and current music. The workers are polite and work really fast. I paid and took my food home. For the price, you get a lot of food! I ordered the rare tendon/meatball pho and I really base them pho off the broth. I sipped it when i first opened the container and I really liked it. Everything was fresh and it really hit the spot. I also ordered the summer rolls with shrimp and they were really good also! ***I'm writing this review after my third visit here. It's soooo good, I took some to go this check-in and Introduced my boyfriend to the wonderful world of Pho!***

Great lunch spot for traditional Vietnamese dishes. They get packed from noon to 1pm so be patient.

Always consistent and always good. I order here all the time. The No. 5 combination broken rice, the beef stew with 2 kinds of noodles, the pho choices, the sugar cane shrimp cake, the tofu vermicelli, the hot sour soup with catfish, the rolls... all excellent!

Absolutely the best hands down. The staff is always welcoming and the ornery is always there making sure everything is perfect. Try the number 8! You won't regret it I promise. Not a bad thing on the menu. Moved jobs and don't get the opportunity to get there as often. Think about those pork chops weekly!

Never disappoints. Ordered 3 meals to go of course a few days ago. Got bun thit nuong cha gio, mi vit tiem, and hu tieu dac biet with no egg noodle. It was super cold that day and this was perfect for dinner. First time having the duck soup (mi vit tiem) and hu tieu and it was delicious. Bun thit nuong is always good comfort food lowered our eating out habits but always looking to support our local businesses.
