Restaurant review FORT WAYNE BEST: VIETNAMESE RESTAURANT I had tempered my expectations after another experience at a different Vietnamese restaurant that had rave reviews on Yelp, but I was not disappointed. This is a traditional hole in the wall restaurant with great authentic Vietnamese food. I was surprised how friendly the staff was when we came in with a large group, they quickly rearranged two tables to sit our larger party. The server was quite friendly and took our menu orders without any problems. Food was served promptly and most of all the Pho soup was amazing. Clear, complex, and not too salty or sweet. It did not seem to be flavored by MSG soup mix where you leave feeling super thirsty. My number 13 pho had eye round steak, well done flank, fat brisket, and tender tripe was simply amazing with the right balance of protein and noodles. The noodles themselves were cooked well without being congealed into one brick and I drank every last drop of the soup. To top off my meal, I had the Vietnamese sweeten ice coffee, I made sure to ask if it came in a can and they told me it was fresh drip-brew. I was pleasantly surprised to see it was brought to the table still dripping. My only problem was getting it into the other cup of ice. I can't even describe in words how amazing the taste of the coffee!
Pros: friendly staff, amazing pho broth, fresh ingredients
Cons: bathrooms that are not so clean, street parking...
   Read moreI rarely write reviews but the lady was just plain rude.This is just mainly for their website donât use it if you plan on doing online ordering, I ordered food and paid online for it to say the order didnât process through but it still took out the transaction. I called just to confirm if they had the order seeing that it went through my bank card but when I called the lady started questioning me if I actually ordered and kept asking if I had the right place. The transaction said âSaigon restaurant Fort Wayneâ and that I can come in to show that the transactions went through and she kept questioning me like I didnât know where I ordered from. All I just wanted was to see if it went through didnât need to argue back and forth over it. I understand if the ticket didnât go on your end but my end the transaction has already been made. Spent 30 dollars to get nothing. None the less DO NOT USE THE WEBSITE. Either way through my experience of eating at that restaurant I have had some of their waitress be rude or act like weâre not there. Just overall am never getting food from here again very disappointed especially when you can get pho for cheaper and better at...
   Read moreI usually go here and get the pho with all the fixings. This time I wanted to try something new. The oxtail ramen. It was 25$. And wow, it was disappointing. First it should of came with vegetables and had to tell the server it was supposed to have them like it says on the menu and told me I was wrong, she then later comes by with some boiled veggies on a plate which isnât even the vegetable it says it should me with. Also the ramen noodles is some 99 cent ramen noodles packet like they just opened a packet and put it in there. The broth should have be different as stated on the menu but itâs just their normal pho broth. Lastly they ruined a perfectly good oxtail. It was over cooked and rubbery like they just boiled it on high when I ordered it. No season on the meat. Then when I complained they didnât offer any service. Didnât ask if they could get me something else or anything. The waiter also walked away from me middle sentence when I explained how upset I was with the meal and service. They forgot my friends drink. Also then when I explained it to the manager she basically told me get over it, âeat what you orderâ . Never...
