At Miss SaiGon, the menu is a vibrant celebration of traditional Vietnamese flavors, crafted with care and precision to offer an unforgettable dining experience. As I perused their offerings, it quickly became clear that this place is a haven for authentic Vietnamese cuisine, perfect for both casual lunches and special dinners.
Starting with the appetizers, you can’t go wrong with the fresh Goi Cuon Spring Rolls—light, delicate rolls filled with shrimp or grilled pork, offering a burst of freshness. For those seeking something crispy, the Cha Gio, with both deep-fried egg rolls and seafood variations, is a flavorful delight that adds the perfect crunch. Pair these with the tangy Kim Chi for a touch of spice.
When it comes to soups, the star of the show is undoubtedly the Pho. The Pho Tai (beef with rare slices) served large is aromatic and satisfying, while the Pho Dac Biet offers a more adventurous mix with various cuts of beef and meatballs. These broths are rich and comforting, perfect for any time of day.
For those in the mood for a hearty Bun dish, the Bun Thit Nuong (grilled pork) and Bun Cha Gio (egg rolls) are excellent choices—each bowl filled with vibrant flavors and fresh herbs, balancing savory, sweet, and tangy notes. The Bun Dau Hu Cha Gio Chay caters to vegetarians, with crispy tofu and egg rolls, offering a satisfying and well-seasoned alternative.
If you’re craving something more substantial, the Com options are a feast. Try the Com Suon Nuong (grilled pork chop) or the Com Ga Nuong Sa (grilled lemongrass chicken) for a tender, juicy main course, served with a side of rice and vegetables.
Miss SaiGon also shines with its specialties, like the Bun Cha Ha Noi, a Hanoi-style noodle dish that is both flavorful and comforting, and the savory Ca Kho To (caramelized fish), which is a true crowd-pleaser.
End your meal with a sweet treat like the Che Thai, a colorful, tropical Vietnamese dessert, or a smooth cup of Vietnamese Coffee to complete the experience.
