Saigon #1 Pho — Restaurant in Virginia Beach

We stop in for a quick meal tonight, please let me be clear, went in the wait staff are amazing people all of them are so nice, polite, fast, and very professional i absolutely give them 5STARS. I wish that we could say the same for the food, we order fresh spring roll, small pho, and roast duck rice platter. OMG!!!! typical spring roll nothing is wrong but the dip sauce it’s so unbelievable salty, the duck rice platter came out looks like they have hoisin sauce on all over the duck and rice, took one bit holly hell again it’s unbelievable salty what is the deal with this people and salt?… pho came out no bean sprouts, thai basil, lime, my wife took one bit that’s is it. and than i ask for to go cup for my coffee they give me the cup with a dang hole, pour my coffee in it came straight out the bottom yes the whole cup lol but the waitress didn’t charge me for the coffee. I am Vietnamese and let me tell you this is no freaking Vietnamese food….so later i found out they not Vietnamese they are Chinese … i am not a picky eater and i am extremely easy but for me to write this much review again i just don’t understand are they not testing their food after they prepared, WHAT’S UP WITH THE SALT?…. even those food was not good but i didn’t make big deal and we did tip well. Thanks to the wait staff.. First time and...

This Pho is the best I've been to in the area, and I'm a huge Pho fan. I've been to multiple Pho locations in the area and this one surpasses them and even other specialized restaurants for 3 reasons.

Reason 1. Excellent food quality and taste.

The food was all fresh, as can be seen in the pictures I have. I had Pho Bo Vien, (the one with Vietnamese meatballs) which tasted wonderful and I also got there Lychee Boba Tea which was both cheaper, tastier, and more filling then Boba Tea I've gotten from specialty Boba Tea makers in the area.

Reason 2. Affordable Price.

Compared to neighboring Pho's this one is quite competitive with a medium bowl and boba tea being less that 20 dollars. Having the 2 options in sizes is also nice and not available at many other Pho's. The Boba Tea was of average price, but above average quality.

Reason 3. Friendly environment.

When I ate hear I heard some regulars talk to whom I assume was the owner for almost a full half hour, talking about family, business, etc. This place is LEGIT because regulars...

Ordered take out two separate orders. She put both on one check, no big deal just paid for both anyway with one card. I got to the car to check everything; order was wrong. Asked for no onions and cilantro in my noodles; opened the container and it looked as if they tried to pick out the cilantro and onions instead of remaking the dish…. Really lazy and concerning for people w health and dietary restrictions. We also ordered A1 pork egg rolls and they were filled with mushy rice and no pork…. We tried to get a refund and the lady at the front INSISTED that we were wrong and these egg rolls (that we’ve ordered multiple times before today) were in fact always filled w mushy rice that she claimed was “taro” She brought out 1 fresh egg roll on a plate with her barehands after touching the phones and handling togo orders and insisted we retry and that they’re always like that… we begrudgingly got our refund after about 10 minutes of the cashier/front store lady going back and forth about our mushy overcooked egg rolls. Lazy kitchen and...
