What Mido Alali dislikes about Saigon:
I absolutely loved their summer rolls and had tofu skew which was good, but sadly the rice noodles and everything else were a bit disappointing. Maybe asking them to spice things up would help: otherwise it's really nice here! View all feedback.
I love a good bowl of Phở but there is so much more to Vietnamese food than just the noodle soup. Saigon in Mannheim has earned itself a reputation for serving a wide variety of Vietnamese fare since 1989! , so when a friend and I...felt like having a Southeast Asian meal, we decided to check it out. We wanted to try a variety of flavours so we opted to share a medley of 4 appetisers and 1 main course. It took us a while because the menu listed over 20 different appetisers! The list of main courses is equally varied, with some Thai influenced dishes thrown in. Wine enthusiasts can choose to pair the exotic flavours of their meal with red and white wines from, for example, the Rhineland Palatinate, Austria, Italy, France, Spain, South Africa and Argentina. Our meal began with one small bowl each of Phở Sài gòn , the beef and rice noodle soup, and Bún bò Huế , the spicy beef soup from Hue in Central Vietnam. Since we ordered the souped noodles as appetizers, they were not accompanied by the customary side plate of fresh herbs. Both broths tasted delicate and well balanced, but on the mild side. The fresh herbs would have elevated both dishes to a whole new level, so if you are a fan of Vietnamese noodles, order a big bowl to share. The dish I enjoyed most this evening was the Bánh bèo steamed rice cakes from central Vietnam. We were presented with bite sized savoury mouthfuls floating in a mini dipping dish filled with Nước chấm . Certainly a tastier way to spend 8 Euro than on the summer rolls Gỏi cuốn , which were rather bland and unfortunately not worth the price of 4 Euro each. Last but not least, we had Bò Lá Lốt , one of Vietnam 's popular street foods. Minced beef wrapped up in wild betel leaves, grilled till slightly charred on the edges, and served with a side of rice vermicelli, fresh herbs and more Nước chấm . A satisfying eat! I would have liked to try the three traditional Vietnamese sweets on the menu for dessert Bánh bò , Bánh cam , Bánh da lợn , but by the time we finished with our main course, there wasn 't any tummy space left. Albeit pricey, our meal was tasty and the flavors authentic. If you are in the neighbourhood and looking to wine and dine Vietnamese style in an elegant atmosphere, head over to Saigon in Mannheim.
Anyone looking for reasonably priced, high quality Asian food for a delightful midday or evening meal out can do no better than visit this establishment. From humble beginnings in the outskirts of Mannheim 20 or so years ago this charming and courteous family have consistently...maintained the highest quality in their menus. The high ratings in Feinschmecker and Michelin guides are well earned. The ambience is decently modern, the service unobtrusive and the food simple, honest and delicious. Highly recommended.
Restaurant is ok, even for who is not so confident with asian food. You can find good options, like chicken or vegetables. Fine.
The restaurant is very nice and spacious. The food was tasty but not breathtaking, which is why I think the prices are a bit too high. Unfortunately our starter was forgotten and we waited a very long time for our food. But we were very kindly apologized and we were given the main course and the starter together. I think it's a bit of a shame that the food isn't presented beautifully but comes in small pots and you have to throw it together yourself. It just doesn't look that nice, and I also think you can never get enough rice for two people. Unfortunately, the yellow curry was very spicy, even though it wasn't labeled, but maybe I'm too sensitive myself. As an apology we received a small dessert on the house. The staff was always very friendly and accommodating. All in all, it's worth a visit, but the experience was below my expectations.
