Saigon Star

This restaurant is consistently delicious! I have been going here moderately often for the past 4-5 years and have never been disappointed by the food or the service! The lemongrass fried noodles are amazing here as well as the pho! The chef is also super open to any changes you want to make which is great for people with any dietary restrictions! This place is great for a quiet lunch but also perfect for a dinner date!

Fried rice was good overall, although the description said crispy (some Vietnamese speciality) which it didn't feel like - not sure if I misunderstood what it meant :). The chilli dip on the side was heavenly... Totally amped up the taste of the fried rice. Service was quick and staff was super friendly.

This was a pleasingly appetising experience. The restaurant itself is quite tiny but it has a warm and inviting ambience. The produce they use in their dishes are fresh and flavoursome and they really contribute to the quality of their dishes. I highly recommend their beef pho and the beef coconut and mushroom stir fry. The beef was finely shaved and served medium rare which added to the sweet flavour of the dish. The vegetables were also al dente which heightened the tasty textured nature of the dish. I'm not much of a dessert man, but their deep fried banana and ice cream pud is a definite must!

The taste is not perfect but it’s ok. Normally when you order Vietnamese iced coffee in North America, it comes with a Stainless Steel Vietnamese Coffee Drip Pot With a Coffee Filter Infuser which passes hot water through the grounds coffee into a cup that already contains condensed milk and ice. Here, the iced coffee just like a regular coffee with ice and condensed milk.

The first time I tried the beef pho it really filled my soul and tasted like I was back in Vietnam.. this second time soup base tastes different not very strong flavours... the fried spring rolls the shell of the spring rolls is the texture of like prawn shells and quite sharp and edgy when you bite into them... overall nice could have more noodles and beef in the pho for price...
