Saigon Sisters

Had noodle stir fry, but without add ons it didnt have as much vegetables or egg as I would like. It still tasted great and was filling. Also loved getting the remaining tea in a to go cup! My friends vermicelli salad looked much more vegetable full than mine, I will try that next time!

I just finished at the gym and wanted to try out a Vietnamese Restaurant and Saigon Sisters was a short walk away, so I headed there. I was recommended the Porky as well as the Fried Chicken spring rolls, I added a Lychee Martini and I was not let down. The food was so delicious and the service was on point, thank you Dan for your great recommendations and service. I hope to bring my coworkers here. Will be back!

The food and service was great! Bun Bo Hue was excellent if you like spicy.

There are good dishes and very mediocre dishes. The one I like best is the pork belly. The curry dishes are really just ....ok. I usually have no problem with this place but the people there really don't know how to do business. I have experienced the following several times but most recent was the worst and I thought it is just UNPROFESSIONAL. The thing I had to-go and was waiting there for more than 30 mins. Meanwhile, I watched several people behind me already got their food and left. I then asked the cashier about my order. She said it was still cooking. If this was a sit-down dinner, I'd be ok with it. But this was a business lunch time. They knew what I ordered and they should've known their cook process and the status of their kitchen perfectly. They could've told me "Sir, this dish is going to take more than 30 mins". I'd then make up my own choice of changing my order or staying. How difficult is that? More, if I didn't ask after waiting for 30 mins, they probably wouldn't even bother until the food was really ready and how knows how long it would take. Like I said, no problem with food but the people who work there. One more note, the portion of a dish there is generally smaller than other places. If you don't eat little or more of a girl portion, you'll be fine.

So glad we stopped here! The Food is heaven (best vietnamese we've ever had) and the service is amazing (the owner was chatting with tables and making recommendations, all of which were super delicious). Not to mention the atmosphere. This location is super cozy just under the L. If you're a Chicagoan you already love the sound of the L going by, and if you're a visitor, you'll definitely want to experience it.

The chicken curry noodles are AMAZING. One of my favorite dishes ever. The owner is so nice and helpful.

Worst pho soup I've ever had, no flavor, very small portion, and over priced .. and I had to go back to get sauces, apparently they are not included.. no good

The wait is never that long and the quality is much better than the French Market Saigon. You can easily do pick up or sit down, if you get there before 12:20pm you should be able to get a table. However, the food always seems salty and the meat a little fatty. Overall like the place, but that's due to convenience and my love of banh mis

Amazing food. This location has a menu of specials that the others don't. The BBQ eggplant, spicy beef noodle, and ca ri ga are phenomenal

Friendly waitstaff and super fast service. Great for quick lunch during work.

The owners, Dan and his wife, were just the kindest, most interesting people and a pleasure to talk with. They made the best suggestions (take their word on what to order)! We had the green papaya salad, egg rolls, branzino and then a spicy beef noodle dishes and it was amazing! I can t even say enough! The fish was melt in your mouth. The noodles and beef were spicy (not overpowering), but so tasty. The green papaya salad was out of this world. The egg rolls were served with lettuce that you wrapped around it and dipped into a heavenly sauce. If you are looking for a great experience with friendly, personal service I would highly recommend this restaurant. It is definitely my favorite restaurant in Chicago ! Thank you so much for the great experience!

Have enjoyed every meal I've had here, plus they have foursquare freebies and what not. Go!

I was in the mood for some Pho yesterday afternoon and tried out Saigon Sisters for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to enjoy a meal with dine in option. I enjoyed my meal mid afternoon and there was only one other table occupying the restaurant at the time. I was first greeted by Clark over the phone when I was inquiring about current dine in and also at the front door upon check in. His attitude and demeanor was so kind and upbeat. Dan, founder/owner was also in the restaurant when I arrived and also had warm greetings. As I mentioned, I was in the mood for Pho in a cold afternoon and this really hit the spot. Between Clark and Dan, I was treated like royalty and have not had such nice service bestowed upon me in quite some time! They helped me customize my Pho experience by asking if I needed something spicy and some extra fish sauce. It was so comforting! I was also surprised that they had a nice selection of gourmet teas, signature cocktails, and other spirits available (I did not review the menu too much before coming in). As I was asking questions about the menu items, Dan ended up giving me a tasting plate of the Octopus with Rice & Squid Ink on the house! WOW was it good too. I also ordered some delicious fried rolls. I found out Dan s wife is in the kitchen and her mom still cooks there too! I kind of felt like family by the time I left there. Do yourself a favor and stop in here for some amazing service and super yum food. Oh and there s a parking lot just about a block away and pretty easy street parking available as well.

Their Curry Chicken with garlic noodles is delicious and perfectly flavored. Highly recommended! I intend on visiting again!

Dan was such a gracious and welcoming host, from the moment he greeted us and sat us down his service was exemplary. Being that we re vegetarian, he accommodated every request we had and made our dining experience truly enjoyable. His service and etiquette really make this place stand out. I definitely will be back, the food was just amazing! Please try the bahn-mi and vegetarian pho!

We go out for food every week and we have never been treated with so much disrespect. We book at table for 8.30PM and as we walk in there is no table available, we sit and wait ... then a group of 3 people walked in with no reservation , a table freed up and the owner let the other people sit ... we asked why and the owner just told us another table was soon to be ready for us. Now it is about 9PM and another table freed up ... the owner says that he going to clean it and will be ready, in the meanwhile a group of 6 walked in and the owner just merged 2 table and reallocated to the new comers. At this point is 9.10PM and we asked again why not us and that we will be leaving and the owner said ... ok ... just go, I do not care about who has a reservation or not ... the more people, the more money I make ... Unfortunately due to covid restrictions we were not able to find another palace available at 9.10PM and we had to arrange late night take out. Pretty sad as it was supposed to be our date night after a long week :-(

Go here if you don't really know or care about Vietnamese food. Wines have never been the same since they pushed Rashed out.

This place ceases to amaze me! Every dish I've ordered was packed full of flavor, and the service was incredible. I can't wait to go back!

Fresh and Healthy! The pho is outstanding...filled with chicken and veggies!

This is one of the worst phos I ever had. Egg roll was okay but sub par considering the price. I wouldn't come back for pho tho.

Very nice place, friendly staff. Got the classic sandwich and it was delicious.

Delicious food, excellent service, and you have to try the house made pepper sauce!

I have to say this was the best pho and fried rice EVER! Thought the price was a bit high but the detail, quality, and taste was 5 star. Would definitely come back!

Came here yesterday and got some pho. The broth was great and well balanced. Dan, the owner, took care of us. The customer service was great and we felt valued as customers there. We will definitely be back!!!

The staff and owner, Dan, are very welcoming and hospitable. Upon recommendation, I tried one of the special menu items, the Vietnamese ramen. The broth was interesting and refreshing - definitely a fusion with more traditional seafood and lemon/spiced taste.

Pho is awesome!!!! Nice place!

Order the Porky - it will not disappoint. More of a lunch spot for me than dinner.

I bought the Curry Chicken and it was very bad !! I couldn't eat it. it was cold and done with no care. I got charged $2.00 for half a slice of avocado and the customer attention was the worst. very sad visit.

Hands down the best egg rolls in the city. The staff was kind and it had a cool little bar area as well. I'll definitely visit again once indoor dining opens up.

Awesome boss, great food and straight in the downtown area. Atmosphere is chill and welcoming. Definitely recommend

I absolutely love their dishes and customer service, awesome area very close to where I live. The cashiers are always friendly. Will come back again.

Stellar Vietnamese food. I've been for lunch and dinner several times. Never once disappointed.

Fantastic establishment! The owner was so welcoming and was super attentive!

Very friendly old lady!The pho tastes good. Separate package makes it convenient to carry the pho and enjoy it later.

Had a great time. The halal chicken tasted amazing and I would highly recommend this spot to anyone in the Chicago area looking for halal food.

Delicious!! Had the Grilled Baby Octopus & Banh Bao (Hoisin Pork Belly, VBQ Beef & Caramelized Shrimp) as my appetizers, Beef Pho was exactly what I expected very authentic, and finished it off with the Vietnamese Coffee Flan. Will be back soon!

Having grown up in Asia, we re so happy to have found an AUTHENTIC Vietnamese spot in the heart of Chicago! The kitchen runs on Vietnamese horsepower with the IT consultant - turned chef born and raised in Saigon! The owners are truly passionate about the food and it shows on the menu. The service was excellent and the food made it that much better.

In town from Texas and we want some PHO, found Saigon Sisters on line, had the Chicken Pho and it was great. The owner and staff were awesome.

Small, but amazing place for some Vietnamese food. Pho kinda plain, but delicious. Was not fan of spring roles, but Banh Bao was very good.

A top spot for Vietnamese food. Looking forward to returning with my coworkers.

I ordered the Ca Ri Ga and the seafood fried rice. The flavors are extremely diverse and wonderful. This is easily the best Vietnamese food I ve ever had. Additionally, the food is available at an incredible value. Saigon Sisters has immediately become one of my go-to restaurants!

This place is a must! Amazing food, great vibe and awesome owners. My husband and I come here once a week, so good.

Contemporary atmospheric Vietnamese food with decent seating at a slightly premium price. I had the Chicken Pho, with vermicelli noodles, shredded chicken breast, squeezed lime, and basil. The service was fairly quick in rush hour. I saw a few people order and they were able to complete the dishes quickly. The taste of the pho itself was delicious. There is a bit of that distinctive musk to the dish, but it doesn't ruin the overall texture.

The best place in this part of Chicago to offer delicious healing Pho that we needed in this cold weather. We walked about 15 minutes from Sky Deck, it's on Lake street and Clinton. I ordered the veggie Pho which Dan the owner allowed me to order a small since I also wanted to order the Branzini whole fried and deliciously marinated fish. The veggie Pho came with 4 large pieces of seasoned tofu. My boyfriend ordered Bun Bo Hue which was spicey with meats and very tasty too. We also ordered a pot of Green tea to add more healing powers along with coconut flan. Everything was delectable!!! So happy we went here. Also the young lady was so nice to keep checking on us with our lemon waters and refilling our hot tea. And the young fellow checked on us repeatedly also, both with warm smiles. The boss Dan was there and was very sociable with us and a good sales man with the whole Branzini fish that I'm glad I ordered. Dan told us some sweet history of the Saigon Sisters and engaged fun friendly conversation. Everyone was awesome, food was off the charts. We will be back, thank you Saigon Sisters! And thanks Dan for the warm welcome! P.S.,the photo of my pho was taken after a few bites. I still included it.

I really can't say enough about this place. The staff and the one owner that I talked to are super nice! I started off with the Fried Chicken Bao as an appetizer. I've never had this before so I have nothing to compare it to but it was juicy and delicious. Then I had the curry soup (Ca Ri Ga). This was the best curry I've had in a long time and maybe ever. The flavor was rich and and they made it extra spicy for me. There were way more chunks of chicken and vegetables that you would normally get anywhere else. Then I had the iced coffee flan for dessert and it was very good. I'll definitely remember this place whenever I'm in the West loop.

The bowl was quite a refreshing meal, along with the tasty Signature Bao. I'll try the Pho next time.

Amazing fish and wagyu beef. Dan is super friendly and serves great like Four Seasons.

Great customer service! Try the Gingerbread Spice Tea with Maker's Mark

I had the original sandwich. So many flavors. If I lived near there I would eat it often. Note: the sandwich is called "the classic," not the original.

Great food, drinks, and service! Sista Rita cocktail is perfect. Wings are a must. Bahn mi was delicious.

This place is very small and slightly pretentious. We arrived without reservations to an empty restaurant and they didn't want to seat us at first. Finally, they sat us and told us we had to eat quickly. $16 got us a bowl of pho that was very flavorful, but didn't fill us up at all. This is a one-time stop, just to see what the chef's interpretation of Vietnamese food is. But it doesn't really warrant repeat visits.

My fav place for Vietnamese food. Service is always super even when they have a full house. Looking forward to returning with my relatives.

Great food! Cool spot. Ready quickly. Even better service! There was a small mix up with some online ordering, but they gave me my food as ordered (and paid for already) anyways. Highly recommended.

Dan, who is one of the owner's of Saigon Sisters is not only a wonderful host but a friendly chap that has welcomed our family with open arms. The food is delicious, we highly recommend the Branzino as a must try on the specialty menu. Excellent service and delicious food. It is a must visit if you are in Chicago.

Perfectly good food!!!! Will absolutely come again soon.

@saigonsisters was on our must try list during our Chicago visit in December....and it did not disappoint. The quaint yet vibey location in west loop had a great atmosphere. We started off with: Thai iced tea An organic traditional kombucha drink A Thai coffee Food: Stiffed baos ( a steamed Vietnamese fluffy yet spongey bread)....kinda like an English muffin consistency. We also tried the spring rolls...I wasn t a fan as they weren t the deep fried variety but the cold summer roll types with the soft rice wrapper.... but it came with an amazing sauce which we asked for a refill of and dipped our bao into Mains: ca ri ga chicken curry And their Tuesday special: fried rice. With the toasted sesame seeds, chilis, spring onions and depths of flavours .Absolutely delish!! The flavors were bold and authentic ( from our other Vietnamese dining experience) but no other Vietnamese restaurant I ve been to so far was as bold and flavorful. The owners husband came around and had we had a great convo. Amazing customer service. Would love to come back and try more of their menu. You gotta eat here!

We first ordered a pork belly bao and a fried chicken bao. Both were amazing! We then ordered the spicy beef noodle & pad see ew. Everything was full of flavor and a big portion as well. The restaurant was very clean and the service was excellent.

The owner welcomed us in and the beef pad see ew and doughnuts were excellent! Must recommend!!!

This was incredible. The staff was so nice and welcoming! Great food! Definitely will be back

Poor quality ingredients. Under seasoned. Friendly staff. Photo is of stir fried egg noodles, which these clearly are not. Update: the Ca Ri Ga (chicken curry) is VERY good. Rich flavors.

Great place to get some food on the fly! Came by this place after work and the service was excellent. Food was top notch for the price too. Highly recommend.

My partner had enjoyed the food on a previous visit and we decided to come back for Restaurant Week. We were disappointed with the food and the service, however it was the food that has deterred future visits. Their Restaurant Week prix fixe menu offers an appetizer, entree and dessert for $36 with an optional coursed wine pairing for $22. We chose to do both and ended up with a $130 bill that was not at all worth it. The fried dumplings with jackfruit were tasty, but there were only 4 of them. I don't know if they adjusted the portions for Restaurant Week or if that's standard, but it was a small app. The veggie spring roll appetizer I'd advise against, it's boring and generic, as is the sweet chili sauce that comes with it. For dinner we had a braised catfish dish along with a prawn curry, both were good, however he catfish was very salty and tasted like a heavy hand of soy sauce. For dessert we chose the fried bao and the bread pudding, both served with a coffee caramel. The fried bao was not on their original Restaurant Week menu, it replaced a rice pudding dish and, in hindsight, I would have preferred the rice pudding and the flan that was also available. The fried bao dish was clearly a way to avoid waste. It was a poorly conceptualized dessert. They were "tossed" in cinnamon sugar which barely coated them and definitely didn't add flavor. The bread pudding was cut into pieces and was also fried.... Bread pudding should not be fried. In addition to the coffee caramel, it came with a side of cinnamon whipped cream that was terrible. There was so much cinnamon in it that you could feel the granules and taste the rawness of the spice. We left over half of the desserts on their plates and our server didn't ask if anything was wrong, which was a bummer. I mean, he was barely present throughout our meal (or the meal of the couple next to us) so we were not shocked by his lack of attention to detail. Perhaps the most frustrating part is had we ordered all of these things individually we would have spent less money, which is not how Restaurant Week should work, and makes me feel like their Restaurant Week menu is a trap. So if you go there, just order off of their regular menu. We had such high expectations and such a disappointing experience.

Oh my GOSH!! Not one bad dish.....we ordered all the signature plates.....Grilled Baby octopus, Whole Branzino, Bo Luc Lac (beef tenderloin) and BBQ EGGPLANT! Everything was delicious with its own flavor!!! So thrilled my Sis-in-law found this incredible place!!! Oh and the Lychee martini was to die for!!!

The restaurant it s amazing and the service was excellent. We order many dishes. However, My favourite dish is Pork Belly Banh Bao! It is one of best Bao! We have to order two times. Delicious!!!! Also, Dan, the owner, he is very friendly and fun!! We definitely will come back again when we in town. Thank for the best service :)

Definitely home cooking experience in the Windy City

First class service and music. Food outta this world.

What an experience! The food was phenomenal! My wife and I were celebrating our 1 year anniversary and the owner there was so friendly/charismatic! Made for a fun meal and great dining experience. We had spring rolls, my wife had pad thai, I ordered the beef brisket pho, and the owner gave us bread pudding on the house for our anniversary. I've never had bread pudding before but WOW did their bread pudding set the bar HIGH. 10/10 will visit them again, next time we're in the city.

The food was amazing. And the customer service was amazing. The atmosphere was very welcoming.

Amazing food and delicious fun cocktails. Staff is extremely attentive and makes you feel like you re the only table in the room. Add this place to your short list of places to check out.

Awesome and remarkable place to taste modern Vietnamese food with outstanding background music tracks and friendly staff! Fresh spring rolls and noodle soup are delicious.

Dan, the owner was super nice and had great customer service! The food was amazing, I would highly recommend the sweet and spicy chicken at this location, they re to die for. The fried chicken bao s were also outstanding, the mother/daughter chef duo did a splendid job!

This is a fantastic restaurant with fresh ingredients and distinct rich flavors. Also, the friendly staff and perfect location dont hury either.

One of the worst place I been too. Just over all terrible.

Spectacular first class Vietnamese food with first class wine pairings. Remarkable service by the owners that were very attentive to detail. Please open in Miami Beach!

One of the best restaurants in Chicago. Outstanding Vietnamese food.

First time here. Awesome food and Dan is a great host. Will come back for sure!

The food was so tasty! Friendly staff, Amazing service. The host was really friendly and attentive. Food was amazing. Coming back for sure.
