Saigon Pho

This is our favorite pho place in town. We come here at least every other week. There are options for vegans and they’re one of the only places that have a good vegetable broth for pho. My issue with the visit today was the girl behind the counter who took our order. She must’ve been no older than maybe 19, a brunette with glasses and a huge camo jacket. She kept her earphones in the entire time, including while we were ordering. Didn’t say anything else other than the total. When our food came out I asked for a different sauce than originally comes with the spring rolls because I’m not a fan of peanut sauce. She argued with me that they didn’t have it, and cut me off while I was speaking then walked away. We’re been eating here for years and they always have the sauce. She could’ve at least went to the kitchen to make sure. I have never experienced anyone so rude at this place. If she doesn’t like food service maybe she should go work elsewhere.

I come here often and have tried a variety of baguettes, pho, and boba drinks. The baguettes are a great deal for a huge sandwich and the pho has always been fresh and plated nicely. Yoshie has been my server and cashier many times and she's been a wonderful host with excellent service! She's been polite, communicative, and efficient and has made my dining experience lovely.

I must say that I have mixed feelings about Saigon. The food is amazing. I always enjoy it here. Unfortunately the owners need to take a look at management and staffing. They tend to run out of baguettes more than occasionally and make us wait for our smoothies till we are are done with our meals. They say they are backed up. Well that would be a management situation. I don’t blame the staff other than they don’t communicate very well. As if they hate their jobs. I will continue to eat here when the need arises and hope that the owners will delegate priorities a little better. Oh. And I’ve had to clear my own table more than once since my party usually doesn’t exceed three people and I don’t want to take up a larger table. Other than that the banh mi was definitely on point.
