Saigonese Express

Love their #51 dish!We are regulars. They see us coming and they know what our group wants.2 #51. 1 #51 no bean sprouts. #3 & extra fish sauce.

I was excited to try them since they are close to my work. I got the #49 and really like the spring rolls but the charbroiled pork was funky. It tasted like how cigarettes smell. I couldn’t stomach the taste at all. I love a good char broiled meat and smoked meat even but the pork tasted like an ash tray.The service and the atmosphere was great and other seemed to be enjoying it but I’m not sure what happened to minenFor the price I was pretty disappointed

I came in for lunch and service was quick and friendly. I had the #49 with charbroiled pork and spring rolls. For the price there was a good amount of food but the almost 20$ price will seemed high. I wish they used bean sprouts instead of lettuce or at least a mixture. The pork was very odd for a charbroiled pork, it tasted like Korean bbq which I normally like and it did take good but it's not what I expected. It was also very sweet. The spring rolls were good but not my favorite. Overall it was good for a quick lunch. I would come back and try a soup next time.

I visited Saigonese for Sat afternoon for late lunch. I used to go to their old location and was a big fan of the restaurant. They reopened as express style and I was very happy to have their food once again.The service was good, food was served quick. It is express restaurant but they do have dining area for you to eat your take out.I tried their beef and shrimp vermicelli and I thought it was a bit disappointing. It was $19.5 and it came with 3 small pieces of vey tough beef and a few shrimps. I expected more for the most expensive item but it did not meet my expectation. Also, it did not come with any other condiments but fish sauce. Vietnamese take out places usually have chill sauce, hoisin etc but they did not have any. Other items with pork looked better, next time I’ll get pork ones.I also had aloe drink, which was like light lemonade and it was refreshing, I enjoyed it.Overall, I like this place and I’d love to come back, I’ll try their pho next time!

Nice staff but it has to be the worst beef vermicelli I've had in Canada. Very tough meet. It seemed like prepackaged meat?Unfortunately it's wasn't just my meal. The others we very similar.

I’m so happy Saigonese is back! We’ve missed you! The 49s and 95s taste just as good as they always did.New location has not the best parking, and the tables inside aren’t the most welcoming (you kind of feel in the way with 2 entry doors and a large counter), but the take-out is still great.

Imagine my delight and surprise when I discovered my favourite Vietnamese restaurant that I thought had closed forever has reopened as Saigonese Express in a brand new location with just a slightly scaled down menu! I’m about to enjoy a #49 for the first time in over a year. ;)

So glad to see this fabulous family return to serving Lethbridge some of the most delicious Vietnamese dishes I’ve ever eaten. Their food is fantastic!!

So happy that the Saig is back! We missed all the spring rolls, the # 49 and 95. The food is delicious and the service is great!!!
