My family and I always see this place but it never really caught our eyes because the front of it is so dark. BUT we decided to give it a try since we always walk past by it and we're always looking for a place we haven't been to for pho yet. 10/10 pho is definitely authentic and I love how they have all the condiments on the table which some places don't! This place is definitely a hidden gem! Would definitely love to come back and try other dishes...

If you want a true Vietnamese restaurant and experience this is it! I only tried takeout and it was good! They're very well known for their salted coffee. A bit too strong for me but my family loves it. The com suon dac biet was very good. The pho broth was amazing. Can't wait to try it in person one day!

A colleague recommended this restaurant to me and since then have come here many times. Service is quick and the younger generation wait staff are efficient. The Vietnamese spring roll (Goi Cuon) with shrimp and grilled pork is solid. The beef stew with tendons #52 is a favorite.

This authentic Vietnamese kitchen in the Saigon Plaza on Rt. 38, Pennsauken, was one of the first southeast Asian restaurants in the area, and carries its excellent reputation to the present day. The somewhat aging dining room is filled mostly with Asian customers who know where the delicious cuisine is, and where to find the best prices which are several bucks less across the board than other VN newer comers around the Heavy Chill (Cherry Hill) region. They also do Thai and Chinese dishes to keep everyone happy. As I was in the mood for a load of hot spicy fat noodles, their Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) with chicken and Wonton Soup made me a contented man. Plenty of shrimp in goldfish wonton and greens in the steaming bowl. Large chunks of boiled beef from the simmer pot also swimming in the hot tub for gnarly handiwork The Pad was a full plate with green and red pepper, onion, tomato, sprouts and tender grilled chicken. I added more chili crisp sauce to spread the heat to my liking. Home run once I started to sweat. Saigon Plaza is in need of a gentle makeover after its decades of success, but the work coming from Thai Son's kitchen is as good as it ever was.

Came here with a big party on New Year's day. We called ahead for a party of 20. We did viet family style and the one thing that really stood out to me was the canh chua. Usually every viet place makes it TOO sweet, but here it was perfect! The bo luc lac was really good as well. The food came out good!

We stopped by here for lunch since it was next to a grocery store we went to. The servers here were really nice and provided recommendations. We ordered the special pho (Pho Dac Biet), beef stew with noodles (Hu Tieu Hoac Mi Bo Kho) and a broken rice plate (Com Tam Suon Dac Biet). The pho broth had a nice depth of flavor and a good amount of meat in it. The noodles were good too. The beef stew was good too, mix of tendon and beef and a good amount of egg noodles mixed in. The broken rice plate came with a pork chop, veggies, fried egg, meatloaf and Vietnamese pork ear rind. It was yummy as well. Overall, good Vietnamese food at this restaurant.
