Miss Saigon Vietnamese Restaurant & Lounge

Everything about this place is fantastic and unique! The atmosphere is so fun yet relaxing, great mood lighting. The staff are kind, informative and attentive! Last but not least the food is incredible!! Some of the freshest food I've ever had! Meat was all so tender, everything was light yet flavorful and generous portions!! I got the spicy pickled cucumbers, fresh summer rolls, and crepe tacos! Highly recommend and would come back!

Had a great time with my wife and two daughters here for the first time. The tables are candle lit with music throughout and special lighting surround. We were seated on the second level that overlooked a canopy of lanterns reminiscent of Hoi Anh. The drinks March of Sa Pa and Ha Long Bay Sunrise were a hit. We couldn't stop eating the Fish sauce Fries. Pork Belly Bao Bun was a nice start. My wife enjoyed her Banh Xeo dish. My daughter loves her Thit Kho. Cup of Pho was just the right size of flavorful broth. The platter for two was loaded with yummy chicken skewers, shrimp and pork egg roll, shrimp & pork banh khot. Crab fried rice was loaded with chunks of crab meat on top and so good. The service was attentive and listened carefully to make note of my girls' food allergies. There's a 3% charge for credit cards. We all enjoyed the experience.

Absolutely fantastic experience! I came in for lunch and was blown away by how friendly and attentive the staff were. The atmosphere is warm and beautifully designed, making it a great spot to relax. Both the food and drinks were delicious and fairly priced. We’ll definitely be back again soon!

We arrived about 20 minutes before our reservation and were promptly seated. The restaurant was pretty busy. I ordered a Passionfruit Mango Lager and it was light, fruity and well balanced; I had two. We shared the spring rolls and summer rolls and while both were very fresh and tasty the summer rolls were excellent. The Bánh Khot was ok and so was the Coconut Chicken Curry. Both dishes left me wanting for more spice and I’m usually not one to ask for more spice. The restaurant decor is modern and whimsical and we found the entire staff friendly.

From the time I stepped in to the dining experience everything was so delicious. The drinks. The music. The customer service was immaculate. David really took care of us and all our needs! This was our first time! The owner even showed us how to eat assemble the fried fish rice rolls. I can’t wait to come back! Thank you for all of your hospitality! This place was a whole vibe! 💓🙌🏼✨

Had the pleasure of dining at Miss Saigon for a friend’s birthday dinner and wow. Everything was amazing! David was our server and he was super knowledgeable and helpful! We tried almost everything on the menu so you honestly can’t go wrong. Standout dishes were the bao buns, skewers, spring rolls for appetizers and the beef, chicken curry, prawns and crab fried rice for entrees. We even got a chance to give compliments to the chef (he was super sweet!) Def check out this place and ask for David!

Oh my hod. So incredibly delicious. We have our normal date night spot and decided to give this a go. The ambiance, food and service were all on point. The prawns are something I will be dreaming about tonight. What a great addition to CC Philly! (If you’re drinking, you have to try the Miss Saigon specialty cocktail!)

This is a great place to be in the city. The ambiance is beautiful, the service from our Bar tender was great, and the food was top notch. They have two bars and it can get a lil crowded, but it’s a vibe. This is a Vietnam cuisine restaurant. They have a late night happy hour from 11-12pm and it is just great! I will be returning!!!

Upon arrival, I saw a wall of mirrors and a ceiling full of lanterns. I was promptly greeted by a host, who quickly brought me to my seat of choice: the bar. We did see a front bar when we walked in but without chairs. Instead, we were seated at the back bar. There was an event at the front bar, shortly after we arrived, guessing they took the chairs out to accommodate them? There are a few steps to the back bar area but also a ramp for those who need it. The bathrooms are beyond the back bar, so it's so helpful! The back bar is dimly lit and a great spot for a date night. There was a cozy vibe to it. The noise level was low enough to hear the person you were with as well. HAPPY HOUR Wowza! 4:3O-6:3O Monday-Sunday. Drinks included about 5 beers, 3 wines (red, white, and rose), and a handful of signature cocktails. They had a good selection of food items to choose from as well. We were also given a regular menu when we were seated. There were cocktails that matched the colors of the pride, rainbow, additional beers and wines, and a good amount of main items and appetizers. Vegetarian items are clearly marked. The bartender had an allergen menu that she quickly pulled out to check. Which items did not have eggs or other animal products so if you're plant-based, it's an easy find. We opted for a glass of wine, a bottle of beer, and a slew of skewers (from the happy hour menu) and the wrap platter for 2 (from the regular menu). We loved the food and drinks. However, the wrap platter for two was just 3 types appetizers with some lettuce and Thai basil. It was $25, getting individual appetizers from the happy hour menu is more cost effective. Also, the appetizers all come with lettuce and the mini pancakes (forget the name) come with lettuce, Thai basil, and sauce. Mini pancakes (Bahn Knot) are more like savory bowls filled with choice items. They have a milder coconut flavor. I opted for tofu and mushrooms. They are also plant based! If you are a smaller female getting 2 orders of these and making the lettuce wraps with them will hit the spot and leave you full. Squeezers included choice items, such as shrimp, chicken, or tofu. You get about three pieces each on each skewer so you wanna order a couple. My boyfriend ordered about 6 of these, some shrimp and some chicken . He preferred the shrimp but noted that he "appreciated" the chicken. He ordered several rounds of these after we ate the wrap platter. Service was prompt and the bartender was attentive. The kitchen was on point because everything came out quickly. Overall, great place--I'll be back soon!

Dearest reader, it pains me to write this review, truly. Miss Saigon failed us. When my sister booked a family party there for June 1st, they should have told her then that Walnut Street, and other adjacent streets, would be closed for Pride events, so that she could let all of her guests know to take extra time in getting there. They did not, making the experience of both getting there and leaving nightmarish. That was a very poor way to treat a customer celebrating an important milestone. Sigh. Second, when we arrived, I told the staff I have a seafood allergy. I do this anyplace where seafood is prominent on the menu, and where seafood based broths and sauces are used. I ordered a beef dish, which the server said was "safe" and I agreed - you would have thought was a safe choice too, right? One and a half bites in, my throat started to constrict, reacting to the iodine in the dish. I choked and felt the intense itch and mucous avalanche that signals a reaction. I had long ago stopped taking epi pens with me as it's a very avoidable allergy. If I'm not sure what's in something, I don't eat it. I tell restaurants before I order, and I never go to Red Lobster. Fortunately, one of our friends did have antihistamines and a pen. She rushed over, gate me a powerful liquid antihistamine that I felt working in 2-3 minutes, and had other meds to give me relief. After that, a server came to me and listed all the "safe" dishes they had. Ummmm... what I had ordered was on the "safe" list. I politely told get that I wasn't going to eat anything else from this restaurant. She kept offering. I told her I didn't blame her personally for what happened. I still wasn't going to eat anything else there. So what do they do? Bring me more food that is "safe". I even got a big pile of steamed white rice brought to me. Mystifying. I really wanted to be left alone. Even with meds, seafood allergies settle in for a while, leaving me feeling like garbage. Pushing more food at me doesn't make that better. It makes it worse as my stomach was already starting to ache from the food that I ingested. The restaurant is lively with loud booming club music, so conversations were difficult. The karaoke room though was beautiful, lots of flowers hanging from the ceiling and such. It should come as no surprise, friends, that Im not going back.

The vibes were vibes were gorgeous inside and the service matched! On a whim I came here for a dinner date with my little and we were happy to give it a shot. We loved our ginger ales and vegetarian options. The fresh rolls and vegetarian pho were delicious.

Heard about this place for a while and wanted to see how its upscale vibes translated food wise. For context, I already frequent some of the great albeit less upscale feeling viet restaurants like Nam Phoung, Pho75, etc. With the decor, drinks, and server/bartender, it was great! In the main area, there were these pretty hanging lights and the different frames above the bar captured a couple glances. For drinks, I had the Hello Ha Noi and my friend got the Miss Saigon. The Saigon came with a definitely picture worthy bubble addition and the Hello Ha Noi came in a cute tiki glass. Both drinks were different and tasted pretty good! ( Shoutouts to the bartender! They laid it DOWN.) The food was a different story. I expected more than the dry lukewarm rice we got for both the crab fried rice and shaking beef dish . Usually when you get a rice dish at a viet spot, that rice is moist and piping. What we got was sad and felt like rice that just sat in the warmer too long. The fried rice had nice presentation and the crab tasted like crab I guess? I think it lacked some flavor. The actual beef of my shaking beef tasted kinda burnt (not the meat but maybe the sauce it was cooked in?). Usually when I get shaking beef from other places, I find it pretty good!! This one definitely did not compare. The appetizers we got were not bad and the fries had a McDonalds like addictive quality. TLDR - Everything but the main food we tried was good. Maybe it was an off day or maybe my expectations were skewed by other food experiences. For what the bill came out to be (170$), I think I'll try other places or just come during happy hour.

Came here in a rainy night. Wanting soup and guess who's open? This place! Had to come in to get some pho fix. Just came from DC now here in Philly bound. A great way to end my night. This place is so cute with lots of mirrors and beautiful interior ceiling lamps. Very friendly service. I must say this is a good place just to chill and get some drinks at night time. Check it out you won't regret it. Ordered only 1 soup for tonight. Definitely coming back before I leave this town.

Had very high expectations for this place after hearing so many good things about it. The interior is very nice and intimate. The food was lacking flavor and the drinks were just ok. The worst part was the spacing of food being delivered to the table. We were not even halfway done our apps/ pho when our meals came out. The runner struggled to fit it all on the table bc there were so many plates. Everything seemed rushed and we were done and ready for the check in 40 mins.

Oh what a treat! Miss Saigon has some stellar things to offer. We had a double date here and it was a great spot to catch up and enjoy some solid noms! We tried their fries and banh mi for the table as our apps and then my wife and I shared their tacos and pho as our meal. I loved that everything was able to be made vegetarian! Everything was so good and perfect for a rainy evening! We enjoyed their service and the drinks were really inspiring and well presented - points for that for sure! Parking was manageable for a weeknight but it's definitely a crowded part of town so plan accordingly especially if you're planning to dine at peak hours. Enjoy your time!

Great lounge and pho! Came on a weeknight by myself just sat at the bar. Had a couple of drinks and a bowl of pho. The broth was wonderful, the drinks was good, and service was great. The ambiance was great, there was a second floor but I didn't check it out. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in town!

The very best Pho in Center City in my humble opinion. I prefer going here for a quiet respite during lunch hours from 1130-1500. At 1630-1830 they have a decent HH. At night it becomes a loud crowded cocktail lounge. The service is always welcoming and the aesthetic is beautiful. 5 Banh Mi's!

Came in to eat on a late night. This place has a pretty nice staff, everyone was greeting the guests as they come in. I wish I remembered my server name but he was helpful while i was looking through the menu. I got a beef Pho and it was very delicious as well as the oyster! Truly recommend this place

Perfect pre-theatre meal at Miss Saigon! My reservation profile notes a preference for standard (non-high-top) seating and the hostess recognized that and seated us upstairs where we had a beautiful view of hanging lanterns and lit-up tree for the holidays. The Hang Son Doong (Bacon-infused redemption burbon, orange-maple syrup, Saigon chocolate bitters) was well received and I loved my spirit-free Fresh Ginger Beer (nice and ginger-y!). We shared an order of the Skinni Mini Bánh Mì (lemongrass pork, mini baguette, butter aioli, cucumber, pickled vegetables, cilantro), Braised Pork Belly Bao (quail eggs, pickled shallots, daikon, carrots, Thai chili aioli), Saigon Fries (misted with fish sauce and served with coconut turmeric aioli), and the Combo Lettuce Wrap Platter (lettuce, cucumber, mint, cilantro, sides of Saigon vinaigrette with 4 bánh khot, 2 spring rolls, and 2 skewers). Everything was well-seasoned and flavorful. The quail egg on the bao was different and truly made them special! For dessert, we tried the Vietnamese-coffee based play on tiramisu and the lychee sorbet. Both were tasty, though the Vietnamese-coffee is a bit deeper in flavor than even espresso, so overwhelmed the other flavors a bit. We will definitely return to try more offerings!

Beautiful and fun interior! Very classy and laidback bar -- lounge vibes! Lighting was appropriate for the ambiance! The Vietnamese-inspired menu offered many delicious small plates such as grilled skewers and spring rolls! I was impressed that our orders were fresh and straight out of the pan. Drinks were delicious! Service was quick and our bartender was friendly! Overall, great bar and I would definitely come back if I am in the area!

The inside of the restaurant is super cute inside and I love the aesthetic inside. We didn't have a reservation but the hostess was very accommodating and was able to squeeze us in and mentioned that she is always willing to help if she can. We got the pho with the short rib. It kind of took a longer time to bring out but it was ok. The short rib was juicy and tender. The pho broth wasn't my favorite but it was still good. It just didn't have the rich bone broth flavor that's I'm used to. I liked the platter because the spring rolls were good. All in all good experience and they label all of their gluten free options if you are with someone that has a gluten allergy.

Visited here over the summer and had a great time! The restaurant is very lounge-like, with fun decor, lighting, and music, making for a really fun and welcoming environment. We were there earlier in the day, but I can see it being really fun late at night for more club vibes. Our server was very kind, offering us many opinions on their dishes and drinks. The menu is comprehensive, but my husband and I focused on mostly small plates so we could try a variety of things. We wound up ordering the chicken skewers, the pork belly bao buns, the tofu banh mi, and the shrimp and pork spring rolls. All food was quite authentic and delish, but our favorites were the bao buns and the spring rolls! This was the perfect amount of food to satisfy us, but I would be curious to try more of their menu, including their entrees and desserts. For drinks, their menu was so unique and fun, it was really hard to decide which cocktail to order! I loved how it was separated into different sections, like Flavors from Home and Philly Pride, to show you the differences in flavors. I ultimateley went for the Miss Saigon cocktail - figured I couldn't go wrong with their flagship offering! This was one of the most fun cocktails I've ever ordered - when it was delivered to the table, the server basically blew a bubble that sat atop the drink that then "popped" a few mins later. So fun! Outside of the outstanding delivery, the cocktail itself was flavorful and well crafted. My husband opted for the Bạc Liêu, which he really enjoyed as unique take on bourbon. While we enjoyed our food, the cocktails were far more fun and memorable at Miss Saigon and definitely what would keep us coming back! We enjoyed our meal at Miss Saigon, and I would definitely come back for the ambience and to try more of their fun and unique cocktails!

Miss Saigon has quickly become one of my favorite Happy Hour spots in the city. I love everything about this place. Good music, delicious cocktails and tasty bites. The fried fish comes with veggies, sauce and rice paper to essentially create a DIY dish. It's enough to feed 2 or take home for some left overs. Summer and Spring rolls are a must. There's also a great happy hour full of drinks and small bites. The fries are soooo good.

This place was super cute!! Decoration and lighting was on point. We came in on a Friday night and it was packed. I recommend getting a reservation. They were able to accommodate us by moving some tables around, I really appreciated that! Service was great and attentive. We got the spring rolls (note- these are fried, if you want the rice paper wrapping it's the summer roll) and split a seafood pancake plate. It was just a good blend of sweet and savory. I don't recall which drink I got, but it was the one with mango and it was super refreshing. Id visit again!

Visiting Philly for the first time and this resturant was near our hotel. Most of our experience with Vietnamese food has been limited so it was nice to expand our palate in this cuisine . The Vietnamese French fries was unique and flavor. We had a lettuce wrap platter for two and greatly enjoyed it. We loved the austhetic and feel of the resturant.

I chose to come to Miss Saigon after seeing great reviews on Google and wanting something warm. In terms of ambience, the interior was pretty and it seemed like a great date spot or place to get drinks. In terms of the food, I treated myself to the bone in short rib pho and I wasn't a big fan. I got a massive short rib in my pho but it was incredibly stiff and didn't fall right off. Because of that, I had a hard time eating it. At some point, I kept trying to get the attention of the servers to get a knife or scissor to cut the rib, and had to eventually walk up to them myself. By the time I actually cut through the rib, my broth was a bit cold. I also wish there was more sriracha that came with the broth but I also didn't ask. Overall, it wasn't bad but definitely not my favorite spot.

Miss Saigon is beautifully decorated and very aesthetic. I went in a group of four for the first time to try out their late night happy hour. Long story short the food was great and the service was bad. Starting with the food and drinks, you need to get the pork belly boa buns. They're the best I've ever had. Truly delicious!! They are carrying this review lol. The bahn mis are good too, but in an average way. You should definitely order them, but they aren't the best ones ever. They're worth it though. The cocktails are good, but for $9 and being made with two alcohols, they weren't strong. I loved the flavor of the Hello Ha Noi, but if you're looking to get drunk perhaps look for a different drink. When we came in, we had to wait for a table to be cleared and clean which was 100% fine. We talked with the host a good bit about how it was our first time here and how we came for the late night happy hour since it's the only one in Center City. After waiting like 5-10ish minutes, we were sat at a table that didn't offer happy hour. The server told us after greeting us and getting us waters. She was nice about it, but as costumers, we felt awkward leaving her table to go to the bar. After that miss communication, we went to the bar. We were about 7 minutes early, but the bartender said she would start making our drinks since we already knew what we wanted. That was very nice. We got our drinks, and then she didn't come back over to us for 20 minutes to put in our food order. We received a third of our order, and the other stuff didn't come. We were informed that the rest of our order was put in wrong. Normally, restaurants rush when there is a mistake, but getting the correct food took a long time. To put it in perspective, we started ordering before happy hour started and half our party didn't receive their order until after last call. Considering it wasn't really busy, it was extra frustrating. No discount was offered which was shocking since the mistake was on their part and hindered us from ordering more. Costumer support is not their priority. We left very disappointed. As of right now, I wouldn't recommend this place. I hope to come back though since we didn't get to try all the stuff we wanted with our elusive server, but I'm not pressed. It's very unfortunate given the food we did receive was great.

Terrific happy hour, which is extra great because they have TWO bars. Note: you can't do happy hour at the high tops in the bar area - just the bar(s). They have a large assortment of food for happy hour, which range from the little bite sized pancake things to oysters and mini bahn mi's, which have amazing bread obviously. We basically get at least one of everything and a cocktail or two and call it a night. Service can be slower when they're busy (which they always are for happy hour). Also, the inside is very cool. They did a great job capturing the Vietnam's beautiful lanterns!

Visited in December 2024 while on a business trip. It's a small spot with a unique vibe and loud music (we sat near the bar). The service was friendly and responsive, but the food was just okay. I specifically came to try their pho and ordered the 3-beef pho, but it was bland and lacked the signature pho spices. I've definitely had better. My friend had the chicken pho and was satisfied. We also ordered a few dishes to share: The Skinni Mini Bánh Mì looked great, but the flavors and texture were underwhelming. On the other hand, the Bò Lúc Lắc (shaking beef) was delicious, and the jasmine rice was perfectly cooked. I didn't have alcohol, so I opted for a Thai tea--it was ok, and I especially liked the cute tea utensils. My friend had a cocktail (don't remember which one), but he found it disappointing--overpriced and too sweet. Overall, the decoration and atmosphere was nice, but the food didn't quite meet expectations.

Nice atmosphere and good service. We came in before the dinner rush so there weren't many people. The oysters were interesting with spicy herb mignonette. I think I still prefer the traditional. Banh khot was good and the caviar was an interesting twist.

The restaurant was nicely decorated. I was seated on the second floor which was unfortunate because I have mobility issues and the stairs are not so easy to navigate. I had pork belly bao bun appetizer which was delicious and shaken beef entree which was nothing special. The service was attentive.

Favorite Vietnamese food in Philly. The bowl of Pho is the perfect size to fill you up and is packed with flavor. The ginger ale is amazing and there are amazing vegetarian options.

Miss Saigon was a nice change of scene. At Miss Saigon, you still get your classic dishes but served in a lounge type setting. The cocktails here are AMAZING, by the way. Our party of 3 shared a bunch of finger food type dishes, including the Bánh Xèo Taco, Skinni Mini Bánh Mì, the Thit Kho, and the Combo Lettuce Wrap Platter for 2. Even though this might not look like a lot of food, the three of us were sufficiently full. Everything was delicious as expected, but nothing really blew us away. I have to say the Thit Kho was everybody's favorite dish of the night. A lovely, braised pork belly and pork ribs dish that was packed with so much flavor. The Combo Lettuce Wrap Platter for 2 came with 4 Bánh Khọt, 2 spring rolls, and 2 skewers, and was such a great bang for your buck for the variety and portions we got. The cocktails were super fun, and some even incorporated Vietnamese ingredients, like nothing I've seen before. The cocktails were incredibly well executed and tasty. I would love to have 3-5 of them, but then I would need to be wheeled out of the restaurant. I highly recommend the Miss Saigon cocktail if you like fruity cocktails. Psst, that's the one where they plant a big bubble on your drink, and then smoke flows out when the bubble bursts. Needless to say, we will be back!

Delicious good and great ambiance! They also have great cocktail menu. This is such a wonderful place to hangout with your friends or come for a casual cocktails and bites date. I like that most of their menu items are tapas style - bite sized, making it very sharable. The waitress was so bubbly and helpful, providing great recommendations as well. We ordered: - Combo Lettuce Wrap Platter for 2 (skewers, spring rolls, and the Bánh Khọt) - mini banh mi - banh xeo taco (mini crepes) - Thịt Kho (caramel used pork belly) This was plenty of food to share with 3 people. Everything was tasty! It wasn't super busy when we went for a weekday dinner but definitely still try to make reservations if you can.

First Time in Philly and stumbled upon miss saigon . Saw Vietnamese inspired cocktails so I had to try . Mada our bartender was so nice . Explained the drinks and how it came to be. Got the Bac lieu. So so good if u like clarified drinks . Twist is pho spice syrups . So creative and so good !!!

Had the pleasure of dining at Miss Saigon for a friend's birthday dinner and wow. Everything was amazing! David was our server and he was super knowledgeable and helpful! We tried almost everything on the menu so you honestly can't go wrong. Standout dishes were the bao buns, skewers, spring rolls for appetizers and the beef, chicken curry, prawns and crab fried rice for entrees. We even got a chance to give compliments to the chef (he was super sweet!) Def check out this place and ask for David!

Where do I start with Miss Saigon. This place is so underrated and I am sure it is because of its very boring facade. Honestly, if it weren't for the pictures on Yelp I would never have gone in. But how beautiful is this restaurant?!! Or atleast the main seating area right when you enter. I love the rattan chandeliers and the large wallpaper of Miss Saigon?? (lol) on the left. Talking about the food and the drinks - I would sum it up as delicious Vietnamese cuisine with innovative cocktails. I had the Miss Saigon and my husband got the Hang Sơn Đoòng. The presentation on both drinks was 10/10 and so was the taste. I could never think that the combination of bacon dipped in chocolate and bourbon would taste so good but this weird combination was so good I had to steal my husband's drink. Miss Saigon was light and fruity but the best part was the presentation. I think smoky bubbles look so cool! Now about the food - we only tried two things: the beef Bánh Mì and the Lemongrass chicken but oh gosh is the food bustling with flavor! I have to agree with the other reviewers that the servers seem a little "fake"? You know when you are trying to be extra nice, it looks a little artificial. When your smile doesn't reach your eyes? It is exactly the opposite of the hospitality you feel when you go to a family owned restaurant. If you know what I mean!

Great location, vibe, food and cocktails. Popped in for early dinner. Very busy with great music and lovely atmosphere. We had a reservation and were seated quickly. It took a little while for a server to get to us. We started with cocktails and they were delicious . We had a few appetizers such as pork and shrimp spring rolls. The spring rolls were average. The chicken skewers were very flavorful. Our entrees were Thit Kho (pork belly and pork rib) and Shaking Beef but were flavorful, tender and delicious. While this restaurant is clearly Vietnamese influenced it is not a purist. Again Miss Saigon offers a vibrant environment with solid dishes and cocktails.

Ambiance: 4/5 Dim setting, with a great vibes. Love the lanterns and mirrors. We sat at the booth by the window. More of a bar for small bites. Service: 3/5 Great service and accommodating staff. Food came out a bit slow but to be expected since it's more of a bar than a restaurant kind of scene. Food: 3/5 Was okay nothing stood out, more on the pricy side and small portions. Bao and lotus salad were my fave dishes. Drinks were yummy. Great to grab drinks and small bites. Overall 3.5/5

In A Nutshell: -Miss Saigon is a really good Vietnamese restaurant. -I got lucky visiting Philly during restaurant week so they had a nice two-entree lunch special for $20. -I ordered some Summer Rolls & a delicious bowl of 3 Beef Pho. -I really loved the flavor of their broth & the flat noodles they use. Overall, the food presentation was beautiful, along w/ the exterior/interior designs & the service is very friendly.

Went here with my friend for a birthday dinner. It was busy with no tables available so the manager was nice enough to sit us at the bar. The place is very small (narrow) but the ambiance is nice Their namesake drink Miss Saigon was fun and delicious. I had the shrimp spring rolls and the Thịt Kho. 10/10 my friend had the Oxtail Pho and the Bánh Khọt. I tasted the Bánh Khọt, it was too coconut forward for me and we both agreed it was a pass. We experienced some very odd service while sitting at the bar. The bartender working with us was just not very attentive. When my meal arrived it was placed two seats down in front of a gentleman we didn't know. We thought he ordered it. After 20 minutes of waiting on my meal we inquired about my food and the bartender pointed to the plate two seats down and she said that one was mine. I'm like how would I know that? You think sitting my food in front of a stranger is normal? I'm not eating that. They got me another plate and that one was good but I was perplexed at how that even happened in the first place. I'm hoping to go back to experience table service for a complete dining experience.

I attended a Champaign and Caviar night at Miss Saigon last month, and it was an enjoyable atmosphere. The restaurant space is perfect for house music and radiated good vibes. Oysters and banh khot came with caviar and were served with my drink of choice. The decor is killer, and it was a very cute touch to receive a paper fan as a gift. Miss Saigon is a prime example of a trendy, respectable Vietnamese hot spot in Philly, and I have no doubt that it'll only continue to thrive.

You would walk past this place if you weren't looking for it. When you get inside to see the huge space and gorgeous decor you will love it like we did. It's in the gayborhood and the drinks were almost at the gay pour level. Long list of liquor and high end for sure available. It was a slow night so one of the managers came out to teach my friend how to eat the fried whole fish. Attentive servers, crispy hot flavorful foods with the right amount of seasons and FRESH!!! We had the spring rolls (good) whole fish too! Yum!

It was my first time here. I was so pleased with everything in the restaurant. The aesthetics are so cute! Perfect for a girls night out or even date night. All of the staff was very friendly from start to finish. The restaurant was clean and they see it as immediately even though it was a very busy night. Our food came out quick. Our drinks were delicious and definitely had some kick to iParking was horrible but that is to be expected in center city if you're looking for street parking. We parked in a lot, $35. I will be back for happy hour for sure. If you ever decide to check out this spot, ask for David he was our server and he was amazing.

This meal slapped. We were unsure of where to go to dinner. Some friends and I that hadn't seen each other in a while. What a great meal to bring us back together. Our server Dylan was great, and had great advice. Definitely get the fried banana dessert. The inside was gorgeous and the walls and ceiling were so fun. Try the banh xeo tacos, the summer rolls, the shaking beef, and the fried rice. You will not regret it. I'll be returning soon.

Came here with a group to check this place out and we were actually impressed and found this place to be better than we were expecting. I would never come to this type of place to order Pho so save yourself the disappointment and order drinks and some bites/apps when you're here. I would say 4/5 items we ordered were actually pretty damn good. We found the Escargot to be just okay however. I absolutely and surprisingly for myself (since I'm not big into sweets), I really really liked their Chuối Chiên ice cream plate. It was SO good. Drinks overall were decent, but I found to be expensive. Actually, in general this place was definitely pricier for sure. Our server was okay. She seemed sort of fake nice if you will. She was on it with our orders and bringing food/drinks out though.

This is a very nice, cool, hip, and trendy type of place. The food is overpriced and the pho that I ordered was tiny. I guess this place is fine if you're there to have drinks and hang out. If you want a good and filling meal, then this may not be the place to go.

Been here 3x. Food and service are always great! Beautiful interior. I've tried their banh xeo, cup of pho, mini banh mi's and their cocktail are amazing!

Once in a blue moon, we tend you Yelp, we wish we had a 6th star" to give when a truly excellent restaurant pops up. For me, it's Miss Saigon. I went on the coldest day of winter and had the most beautifully savory bowl of chicken Pho in recent memory. I have thought about it again for every single subsequent meal. ::drool:: Let's face it - Center City's a rough market and we should all do what we can to make sure high quality establishments are patronized. Your arm will not need to be twisted - it's currently the best restaurant in the stretch of new establishment on Walnut street. (...for those who keep score, Miss Saigon -is better than -- Grandma's -- which is much better than -- Jámon)

We checked out this new Vietnamese spot in center city for restaurant week and came away impressed. The food is good-not-great level but the atmosphere, drinks, and service are all worth coming back to. We liked the banh mi and shaken beef food options in particular. Really cool interior and probably a fun spot for just drinks too!

Great food and atmosphere. We stopped on a Sunday night and the bartender, Eric was very attentive. He gave great city recommendations and his drinks were amazing. Good food and served fast. Keep this place going!

I get excited when I heard a new Vietnamese restaurant is opened in the city. This place is a bit more upscale Viet restaurant, hence the price is slightly higher. I loved the decor, cute Viet vibe inside. However, the light is too dim in my opinion. Overall, food is good. But the taste didn't wow me. Pho, agreed with other reviewers, it was lack of flavor and they use thick rice noodle, instead of the usual pho noodle. It was broken down into small pieces, we told the manager and they switched it right away, which is impressive. I do like their happy hour and drinks though. It's worth it if you want to try a little bit of everything in the menu. Bartender is really cool, he lets us have our drinks at the dining table. Usually we are not allowed because it's a happy hour, we have to stay at the bar area. Services are great!! friendly and attentive staff. Would definitely come back for more happy hour!

My friend and I came here for a late dinner and we had a great time! I was able to make a same night reservation on a Friday and our waitress was super attentive. The inside decor is literally so beautiful with all of the lanterns and art. We had some drinks from the pride menu and although they were definitely aesthetically pleasing and IG worthy they didn't taste as great and a strange after taste. But the food was A1! We weren't super hungry so we split the lettuce wrap combo platter for two and the crab fried rice. The chicken skewers were literally so delicious and not dry at all which I worry about sometimes but I could probably eat like a whole platter of those they were so good. The shrimp and pork spring rolls were super crunchy on the outside in the best way possible and the dipping sauce was perfect for them. There were also these cups with shrimp that really good too. The crab fried rice was perfectly seasoned and had huge lumps of crab meat. I definitely need to come back and order some more entrees because the options sounded soooo good. Def recommend!

Nice spot for tasty food and drink all day or for late night. Very warm greeting as you walk in, nicely decorated inside with comfy chairs. Good sized menu with lots of different Vietnamese dishes, and interesting cocktail menu too. Happy hour menu for the bar. Bao buns were very tasty and an amazing deal. Crab fried rice huge plate too. Will need to stop in and try a few more things. Thanks

Amazing experience here. We met the owners, Chuong and Kenny. They named the restaurant, Miss Saigon, to honor women and mothers. The cocktails are made with high quality ingredients such as fresh fruit purrées and quality liquors. The food is awesome! We loved the cocktails as well. Highly recommend checking them out. It was walking distance from where we are staying and near the convention center so we plan to come back after work one or our days at work. They provide great service and its a fun place to meetup with friends.

Vietnamese gastropub/tapas place. Great, great alcohol menu. Wonderful place for something like a girls' night. Food wise mostly good. The pho and summer rolls were at least on par with other good Vietnamese places around. We like the prawn dish. The prawns were huge and sauce was delicious. They forgot one of our appetizers, but we were too full so we told them we didn't want it anymore.

Enjoyed the time here. Very beautifully designed inside and a nice sized menu. The chicken curry was tasty, but very liquidy so be careful of your outfit
