Saigon Express — Restaurant in Berkeley

I visited this restaurant because of its convenient location, and no one stayed in line at that particular time. I am not a regular eater of pho soup, but this time I decided to eat here. My reaction to this food is not very impressive because there is not really much to eat for the price I paid, about $18 dollars together with tax and tip. Furthermore, I wish they could add something else extra for that price, just like Mexican restaurants do(nachos, salsa and some veggies). Unfortunately, after this restaurant, I had to go to another place and buy a humburger so that I would not be hungry and be able to last till dinner. There were about eight people inside. Overall, the experience...

Authentic and delicious veggie banh mi with shredded tofu! Lots of veggie options for vegetarians and vegans. I live in SF and it’s quite difficult to find a vegan banh mi that is not only good but authentic and not overpriced. These sandwiches are so affordable and can easily satisfy me for a meal. I actually bought my sandwich to eat for the next day and the employees were accommodating enough to keep the ingredients out of the bread and keep the baguette un-toasted. I’m looking forward to coming back here soon and ordering more banh mi and trying other veg options...

Every time I get the vermicelli noodle salad bowl I black out and come to 15 minutes later having inhaled 90% of it and using the wrong side of the chopsticks the whole time. It is so so good, the beef is so well marinated and they put such a nice mix of veggies in there and it is such a satisfying and healthy meal. My boyfriend really likes their banh mi as well and they are very reasonably priced!! The servers are so kind and personable. I love this place out of all the changes in downtown Berkeley I'm glad Saigon express...
