Frommer's Review

Co-owner Bien Nguyen left school at 15 to work in the food and beverage industry. An old French couple took him under their wing and taught him, as he puts it, "the A to Z of F and B." Saigon is grateful to that couple and to Bien, who has created one of the finest restaurants Saigon has on offer. The food is innovative, and yet retains the traditional taste and feel of Vietnamese eats. I highly recommend the Sea Bass Taste, a sampler plate that comes with perfect, small portions of grilled sea bass over mashed potatoes, a crispy Vietnamese pancake with fresh veggies, and a sea bass rice flour roll or banh cuon. The deco is modern, with retro wooden chairs fixed with deep purple velvet cushions. The lounge is a great place for pre- and after-dinner drinks.
