Review New Saigon Vietnamese Restaurant - Hilo

I went one afternoon with my family. This is a great little spot to check out! Really enjoyed the food! The Pad Thai was a wonderful balance of tomato-y and peanut-y. The service was good, if a little slow. It's a neat spot right across the street from the water

Very good food! We ordered a pho and a rice plate, the pho is so hearty and the rice plate is so savory.

Great bowl of Pho. Took a long time to receive food, and some people who arrived later received their food first. Restaurant was clean.

This "hole-in-the-wall" restaurant was recommended to me by a friend. My mom and I finally had the chance to try it, and, boy, what a treat! We ordered takeout since my mom is elderly. We ordered the steamed rice with pork chop - shredded pork and eggs (38), shrimp and eggplant (don't know the number), beef stewed with noodle (3), crispy egg noodles special with shrimp (51), and the Hong Kong rice noodles (33). Everything was delicious! My mom liked the shrimp and eggplant best. (I couldn't find it on the menu, but the server knew what I was talking about). The pork chop and the shrimp and eggplant were among my favorites. I loved the beef stewed with noodle also. It might be easy to overlook this nondescript place, so I wanted to help bring notice to this little gem. Highly recommend!

Very good pad Thai. 👏

The Pho was REALLY good and authentic and amazing price at $12.50 for the traditional dish. Definitely coming back

quang thang soup is legit, pho is very flavorful. wonderful husband and wife who so friendly and cooked all the food herself

Extremely good taste! We finished all our dishes. The soup and noodles are particularly nice, Cooked just enough to retain the texture. Must have a try! Recommendation: no.3 and 20 FYI, The owner is Vietnamese, dun really understand English, but it doesn't matter, u just need to let him know the number of your preferred dishes.

Mindblowing beef stew with French rolls and hot flavorful pho!! Vietnamese coffee milk was also so ONO!

Pho and Vietnamese coffee was good. The prices were very low. Also had a nice view of the pond.

The owner are goes beyond and expectation to made our food and feel welcome!!

Their Bahn Mi sandwiches (we chose the pork) are delicious and a great value. A local highly recommended stopping in for a sandwich before heading out to the volcano park. BTW the sandwiches were gone before we arrived at the park. The service and staff were great.

The pho here was good. The place had a peaceful feeling. The customer service was awesome. I found the parking to be a little small but still easy enough if you park on the side. Overall great place to stop by.

We had com xuon nuong, bun thit nuong, pho and hu tieu. My pork chop rice dish and my son's bun thit nuong were good. My daughter hu tieu was good too. The portion of the pho was a bit small and just ok. However, the owner was quite nice and friendly. They gave us some homegrown logan after our meal.

I love eating here on a cold windy rainy day. The food always fresh and yummy.

My favorite place for cold vermicelli! Plenty of veggies, nicely grilled meat and tasty spring rolls. I've been back enough times they already know what I am going to order. Consistently delicious, inexpensive and fun to watch the Ice Ponds across the street.

Good eats at descent prices. Friendly staff and service.
