Food: Food tastes great but has a price

At Saigon 9, the Banh Xeo is a crispy delight, and the Pho Dac Biet brings tender meat in a broth that satisfies. Portions are generous and well-balanced against the affordable prices, but the freshness can falter occasionally, leaving diners wishing for more vibrancy.

  • Okay Value

    Review acknowledges reasonable prices but only finds the food acceptable.

  • Bad Taste

    Food described as bland, disappointing, average, or lacking in flavor.

Vibe: Battling against ambiance and noise

The ambiance at Saigon 9 is less than inviting, with cheap furniture creating a less than welcoming space. The loud music reverberates in this small area, detracting from any romantic dinner potential and leaving a sense of emptiness in the air, quite literally.

  • Okay Comfort

  • No Buzz

    Shown TV pictures are misleading, suggests lack of photogenic quality.

Perks: Parking convenience outweighs the noise

On the brighter side, parking is ample, even during busy events, which is a definite perk for this location. The staff are noted for their friendly, attentive service, making dining less of a hassle, and there's a welcoming environment for kids with vegetarian-friendly options too.

  • Okay for Kids

    WOM lacks bite-sized context to explain the neutral Kids sway.
