Probably my favorite restaurant in Bluffton... actually, not probably... its my favorite. I love the Vietnamese pork chop with sunshine egg. I like the beef with lemongrass. I like the soup with pork, boodles, and dumplings. The spicy beef pho is good and you should definitely order a Vietnamese-style coffee. Get it over ice. Youre welcome. This spot here is unassuming and laid back in terms of its atmosphere. The wait staff is usually friendly and efficient. "Nam" the greeter/host has a non-stop motor and he is always doing what he can to get people greeted and seated. Oh yeah... the shrimp fried rice is really good too. Fact is that I come here quite a bit because I crave their food and I gotta get that fix, if you know what I mean. Once you try those dishes that I mentioned, then you too will be craving the food and will want to return.

Ive had a few dishes here and theyve always been good. Good not great because Ive had better, more authentic Vietnamese cuisine. The service is always amazing. The dish I ordered today was "vermicelli noodles with grilled pork". It was really good. I prefer my noodles warm or hot but I was pleasantly surprised by the cool noodles. The grilled pork was well done as well. The sweet fish sauce is my favorite part because it is a well done essential to this bowl and ties everything together well. I only gave 4 stars because of the high prices. Id give 4.5 stars. The restaurant is located on an island but I dont think prices necessarily have to be that high (mostly $11-$14).

Though a few of my friends rave about this restaurant, I do not share their enthusiasm. The restaurant is very small, with little seating. The food might be good but I feel it is too much $ for the food offered. The owner is there and tries hard but I had to wait a few times to get any attention, after I placed my order, as he was busy talking, socially, to other customers. I also could not get his attention for 15 minutes when I needed to pay my bill and leave, making me late for an appointment. The worst, for me, is that the waitresss and the owners understanding of English was not enough for them to understand my questions about the menu items or other things.

Not sure if the Vietnamese man that greets everyone is the owner or not but he is awesome! As soon as the door bell rings, he is on top of his game and ready to seat you. From entering the door until the time we left, everything was very much the dining experience youll want. The staff is friendly and fantastic. The food is amazing. The price is great considering how big of a portion youll receive. We ordered the spring rolls as an appetizer - they were fresh and delicious. Both of our entrees were tasty too. Definitely a great find and a hidden gem. We will be back often!

I have been coming here for years i love there soups and spring roles everything is always fresh and taste great. The staff is amazing the owner knows me by name and we are always greeted with a smile or and hand shake and always by name. This makes the whole dining experience wonderful. I am a regular and go there at least once a week for there soup. Portions are large and there is always left overs for me to take home. I would recommend this place to anyone that loves soups and Vietnamese food i particularly love the vegetable soup and i always add bean sprouts to it.!

Absolutely superb food and service at a great price. Distinct and extraordinary flavors in each dish, from the exquisite fresh spring roll to start, the amazing wonton & pork noodle soup ( an entire meal) to the vegetable fried rice and delicious spicy lemongrass seafood plate. Many visits are in order to explore the ample menu, and you will not be disappointed. Were taking friends there whenever we have the chance. Five Stars!

Probably the first authentic Vietnamese restaurant Ive ever been to. As soon as you walk in, the owner (who speaks very broken English) immediately finds a seat for you. A waitress comes to get your order, but thats all she does. The owner then brings your food, and refills drinks. The food is absolutely delicious.

Ross Brown of Ross Brown Entertainment writes, "I was asked to try the soup at Saigon Cafe three weeks ago... Now, I have been to the restaurant 5 times over that period of time. Spicy Pho Soup will reorder your priorities and make you feel great!" Go get some!

My daughter and I visited for the first time this week. The food was served quickly and was hot, fresh and delicious! Our server was friendly and the owner was out front the entire time and was really nice. I will return for lunch as soon as I can!

My absolute favorite lunch place. The food is amazing. The best Pho Soup I have ever had and the service is always good. The place is also really quaint and comfortable. Dont miss a chance to visit this little known secret hideout.

This place serves tasty food with lots of variations(Asian style). The service is quite good, the place is always crowdly. The lunch menu special is worth the price, although seafood is abit pricy. A good restaurant in general.

It is a wonderful place with delicious food and very friendly staff. I love their pho soup. I can only eat half, very large portion, but perfect to split with your friend. I recommend this place to everyone!

I really like the food better than any other restaurant with this type of food in the area. Great Spring rolls and Won Ton soup as well as other dishes. One of my favorite places to eat.

Orange chicken was fantastic and the wife had the seafood and that was excellent. Fantastic beer menu, worth the read and chuckle. We are hooked.
