This restaurant was on my recommended list for years. We happened to be in the area and after our meal we will now be heading out that way just to eat here! Super fast service. Deliciously fresh food. The place was packed but you’d never have been able to tell by the wait time. We will be back! View all feedback.
What Thanh “Maddie” Pham dislikes about Saigon Spring:
I don’t know why every review on here say that this is authentic Vietnamese food. These reviews read like they’re bought and fake. No, the food isn’t authentic. Vietnamese food is not supposed to be flavorless. It is extremely flavorful with rich umami of fish sauce and multiple spices. This place had the most flavorless Pho I have had. I felt like I was drinking boiled water with MSG. No star anise or cinnamon taste... View all feedback.

I have visited this restaurant multiple times. Although the service was slower than usual this time, it was understandable as every table was occupied shortly after we arrived. The food is excellent and reasonably priced compared to other restaurants. Despite the wait to order, the overall experience was still fantastic and deserves a 5-star rating.
I absolutely adore this restaurant and want everyone to know. I stumbled upon it during a road trip in 2021 and have been longing to go back ever since. I rave about it to everyone and can't help but compare all other pho restaurants to it. The flavors are rich and never fail to impress me. Finding this place has truly improved my life. Saigon Spring, I love you <333
I can not emphasize how good the Pho is here. I have been getting pho every other week and always get the same dish 99.9% of the time because it's my #1 choice here. It is the Pho Short Rib!! The ribs are tender and savory. And the broth!! Hands down the best broth. The coctels are so delicious and highly recommended the wings for appetizers. They are so crunchy.
I always enjoy having lunch at this restaurant! The food is very good. The pho, filet mignon, and shaking beef are especially delicious.
All the bad reviews are nonsense, the servers are very friendly and polite. The food is ALWAYS on point, I can’t say I’ve had a bad experience here! Keep up the good work and delicious food!

The food here is fantastic. Everything is fresh, and the restaurant is very clean. Initially, I always ordered the Pho Tai, but I've started exploring other dishes, and they have all been excellent so far. It's definitely one of my favorite places to eat.
I visited for the first time yesterday and was impressed. The pho was delicious and comforting, the beef was high-quality, and there was plenty of seating available. The staff were very friendly. We look forward to returning!
Saigon Springs is my go to for when I crave Pho! Their Pho Saigon is my favorite! I always order that along with the shrimp salad shrimp summer rolls. This place is so clean, the staff is extremely friendly the food as I mentioned is beyond delicious. I’ve dined in with my family and also do take out and it always taste the same. To say the least I am obsessed and this restaurant deserves way more than 5 stars! Yum
Always excellent! This is one of the best and most reliable restaurants in the capital region.
My husband and I love it here! They are friendly, and have never once messed an order up, or delivered lackluster food. Can't recommend this place highly enough!

Always great eating! always on time or early! always nice people and beautiful atmosphere. Since the covid began, we have not opened the dinning areas. and.
Service: a food: decent stops because our sushi place was not open. I always wanted to try. I've heard many people from the pho.
When I discovered this place 5 years ago, the ingredients were fresh. the bone broth was tender, festive and tasty. you couldn't beat that worth.
