4.9 / 5.0(3,977 reviews)

The food was absolutely unreal. Every dish was full of flavour and beautifully prepared. The staff were super friendly, welcoming and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Special thanks to Kim for serving us. Easily our favourite spot in Saigon so far. We’ll definitely be back on our next visit! We were there on September 25th and had a great time. It is hard to find the place but was worth it! the food was tasty with good portions, drinks were lovely. our waitress Amy was very nice and explained all the courses and the right way to eat them. she also took lots of pictures of us. Definitely recommend this hidden gem. I had the pleasure of trying several Vietnamese dishes and was truly impressed by the quality and freshness of the food. The bánh xèo was perfectly crispy and flavorful, filled with fresh vegetables and served with delicious herbs and sauces. The mixed appetizer platter was also excellent every item was tasty, well-balanced, and authentically prepared. The presentation of the dishes was beautiful and very inviting. A special thank you to Lily, the waitress, who was incredibly kind and attentive and made the experience even better. I highly recommend this place! 👏🍽️✨

We had a great experience at Taste of Saigon! It was a little tricky to find the entrance at first, but once inside, it was absolutely worth it. The food was delicious fresh, flavorful, and beautifully served. The staff were very friendly and attentive, and their English was excellent, which made ordering and asking about dishes really easy. Overall, a lovely spot with great service and tasty Vietnamese food. Definitely recommend it once you find your way in!

A truly hidden and hard to find restaurant but worth the trip! It’s tucked away in a hidden alley - don’t be fooled by the seemingly eerie surroundings. Once inside the restaurant is well lit, staff are friendly, proactive and speak good English. Menu has good variety - from appetizers, mains and individual dishes. Also has some foreign cuisine for the less adventurous. Food is tasty, well presented with generous portions. Recommended! 👍🏼👍🏼
