Saigon Cafe — Restaurant in Pineville

My first trip to Alley 51 Food Court and choosing Saigon Cafe was a win! I wanted something different from the usual Pho, and chose the Spicy Beef and Pork Noodle Soup. It is not very spicy at all, but the flavor is excellent, exactly what I wanted. It comes with chili oil on the side and a baggie of pho toppings: bamboo shoots, herbs, and lime. It comes with a variety of pork and beef meats, some of which may not be appetizing to all customers. I wasn't in the mood for a lot of meat, and they were more than happy to omit the ones I didn't want. The brisket was tasty and not fatty. There were a lot of noodles, more than I needed. Next time I'll ask them to include less if possible. The price was perfectly reasonable for such a quality soup. I also had the shrimp summer rolls and they were delicious, along with the sauce. Seating was good and the atmosphere was pleasant. Plenty of parking when I was there for lunch on a weekday....

Very happy with all of the elements here on my first visit! Ordered the vermicelli with beef and was pleasantly surprised with the vermicelli...they looked so plain. Well, they turned out aromatic, flavorful, light, and fresh. Can't wait to try the pho...
