Miss Saigon Vietnamese Restaurant & Lounge Reviews

We went here tonight for dinner as they have the offer for Restaurant Week in Philly. The restaurant is new and nice. Nice decor and trendy. The food and service were good.

We dined here last Saturday whilst staying nearby. We made a reservation, and whilst busy, the restaurant was not full. Service was friendly and efficient, and we chose summer rolls and pork belly bao buns for starters. We followed with a platter for two, and a chicken curry. All of the food that we had tasted really nice, however the highlight was definitely the chicken curry. The flavours were subtle without being overpowering, and with just a little heat, but not too much. Atmosphere was relaxed and service was very good. Based on other places that we ate at, we thought that the prices were reasonable. My gripe is that the restaurant automatically adds a 20% gratuity to the check. Now I don’t mind leaving a tip for good service and good food, and we do regularly, but I don’t like it when it is taken out of my control. The restaurant is making a decision for their customers, without allowing them the opportunity to decide for themselves how much to tip. When only found this out when we were reading the menu, not when we booked online. We didn’t come across this at other restaurants in Philadelphia. The food alone was worth at least a 4.

Enjoyed happy hour. The food was very tasty, price very favorable. The atmosphere made one feel comfortable. Happy hour had to be enjoyed at the bar. Food was $6 with a good variety. The bartenders were great! I would go back!
