Saigon Noodle House - Goleta

Rare beef pho was delicious, the meat was tender and flavorful. Same goes for the chicken pho and egg rolls. The vermicelli with pork was tangy and light. The house fried rice was savory and hearty. The staff was friendly and efficient. The interior was simple, humble and large. Many tables and booths to accommodate groups of all sizes.

Wait staff very helpful and friendly and made special dishes for me because of food issues. The food is almost as good as the best in San Jose or San Francisco. The pho was outstanding and not too salty. Had a very delightful experience.

The prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly. I ordered the pho with brisket and a Vietnamese iced coffee. The broth was flavorful and loaded with meat, and the portions were generous. The coffee was decent, but not outstanding. I really appreciate that no one laughed at my clumsy attempts to eat my pho with the small spoon. I have a feeling if I had tried using chopsticks, they wouldn't have been able to contain their laughter and would have pointed at me!

I stumbled upon a delightful Asian restaurant in Goleta that exceeded my expectations. The menu is diverse and offers a great variety of dishes at very reasonable prices, and the food is absolutely fantastic. Every item, from appetizers to desserts, is both delicious and memorable. One drawback, however, is that they don't provide a straightforward method for online ordering for delivery or pickup; your only options are to dine in or place an order at the restaurant.

The food and service were excellent! We loved it so much that my family returned multiple times during our weekend trip. I appreciated the special vegetarian menu they offer. I tried the V3 option, a stir-fry, and it was incredibly delicious! My family also loved their pho and goi cuon dishes. The portion sizes were just right. The only downside was that I wouldn't recommend their café sua da. Overall, if you're in the area and craving Vietnamese cuisine, this place is definitely worth a visit!
