It's not my favourite pho experience, but it will do if I'm in Scarborough and I'm in need of noodles. Wherever I go, I always order Bun with chicken and a spring roll because the soup never sits right... MSG allergy foils my options. The bun's not bad here, but at close to $9 for a small serving, it's more expensive than better bun I've had elsewhere.
The service is okay, but I have had to wait a few occasions longer than I deemed reasonable. -

The waiters look MISERABLE there. No joke.
The food was okay, a bit overprice than usual nothing fantastic.
My brother ordered pho and he said the broth was a bit sour.
But seriously, when I went the waiters looked like they really hated life. Esp the Tibetan one! -

Typical pho joint except the decor was bit more modern. The staff were friendly.
Reasonable prices for decent tasting food. The pho was bit too salty and wished for a bit more meat. -

Went here again and the pho was still excellent, however, the service was terrible. I swear it was everyone's first day.
Ingredients the pho I ordered:
1. noodles
2. raw beef
3. tendon
Pho Saigon attempt #1:
1. noodles
2. flank
3. tendon
Pho Saigon attempt #2:
1. noodles
2. raw beef
3. tripe
What the hell? Not only did it take about 15 minutes for everyone's pho to come out, with the two errors on my order, everyone was done their lunch before I started. I hate to penalize Vietnamese joints for service, but they must know that a lunch clientele have time restrictions!Listed in: My Vietnamese Food Rankings

Pho Saigon Restaurant is ok as a Pho Joint! But I don't think I would have go out of the way to have a bowl of Pho here.
I was here for lunch on a weekday afternoon. This restaurant was quite busy. Most of the patrons were not Asians.. haha... I did stood out like a sore thumb!
I decided on a medium Pho with rare beef. It arrived quickly but I was not offered any bean sprouts. My pho just got dumped on my table and I have to wave another waiter down in order to get my bean sprout/basil/chili pepper. BTW I don't think any of the other tables was offered fresh chili, he has to go inside the kitchen to look for it!
The broth is nice and flavoured with a lot of depth. The rare beef were a little cooked... but still ok. But here the medium is like a size of small compare to Vietnam Noodle Star.. and that is quite pricey for $7. The noodle is also a dried type.
They accepts Visa, Mastercard and Interac.Listed in: Vietnamese Food in the GTA!

Yum yum yum!!! This pho is great, I don't know all that much about vietnemese food but the beef pho here really hit the spot.
I went in last night for take out, got the brisket pho (medium) and my food was ready by the time I paid.
I got TONS of food, it came with a huge container of broth, tons of beef, bean sprouts, basil, chilies in a little container, and a huge heap of noodles. I don't really know what the other people meant by dry noodles but my were moist when I received them w/ the meat on the side.
I got through about 1/3rd before I gave in. For 7 bucks I'd say it's a pretty SWEET deal. -

Awesome place overall. I wasn't a big fan of pho until I went here. It's cheap as well. Make sure you order the rice + chicken combo with the fish sauce!!
