Saigon Street: Reviews & Ratings
Awesome place, too bad they're closed now. Literally was the only place open before Bread & Butter popped up. Now they serve Noodle
Alright we've got to stop the hate this place gets Goddammit. They work hard, do everything they can to get the food right and constantly get harassed and abused by the clientele of the Casino. Vietnamese food isn't meant to be expensive and they have to increase their prices here because the Casino gives away hundreds of thousands of comps every single day and they are usually the ONLY place that is open and people flock to them usually in a pissed off mood looking for a bite to eat after losing all their money. Be respectful, Yelp - your not being helpful by saying they're inflating their numbers because a 2 star rating isn't very high.
Everything's overpriced inside the casino but it is what it is rents expensive as hell so it's only normal. Food here probably is one of the best inside National harbor. I usually get their beef fried rice which is but wanted to try their chicken. Their fried rice is one of the best I've had yummie wings were super good fried perfectly. You must add siracha and oyster sauce to your fried rice make sure you ask for packets because they will never put it in unless you ask. Sauce left from the yummie wings also made it great sauce to mix into the fried rice. Will definitely come back.
This pho was calling my name and I finally bit the bullet. The broth was not up yet typical pho broth, but had a super strong and rich seafood taste. The lobster itself was actually a very decent size and was very sweet as well. Now is this the best pho? No, but it definitely hits the spot and is a fun item to get when at the casino. A nice little splurge if you're ever at MGM!
Overall, their food is good. A little over price compared to other Vietnamese restaurants but it's very good. What you expect when it's located at the MGM casino? Overall? They give you a lot so no complaints. My only one star deduction is due to them giving me small ox tail so $45 is steep when I can make my own ox tail pho soup. I tried their lemon grass chicken and grilled pork and they taste really good. The Banhi Mi in my opinion is good but not excellent. I had better.
Great food located in the casino. Prices are a little more than usual for Vietnamese food however it's fresh and tasty! Portion size for the chicken banh mi was way more than I've had before for a sandwich. The egg rolls were decent. I also ordered one of their fruit teas.
