During one of the coldest evenings I’ve ever experienced in Chicago, Saigon Sister’s insightful and heartwarming cuisine brought me back to the joys of Vietnam’s expansive, accessible, and culture-defining foodways. Chef Mary’s drive to simultaneously bring back her homeland’s authentic flavors while pushing the boundaries of what defines Vietnamese cuisine is provocative yet foundational . Rest assured that the whole fish branzino dish was summarily dealt with down to the last bit of crunchy fishbone! Lovely atmosphere and a great big shout out to the even lovelier staff!

“I am pleased to say that the experience was everything.”

I am pleased to say that the experience was everything. From the start we were greeted with warmth and quickly taken care of. The food was delicious and savory. This is the most flavorful broth I have ever had along with the most tenderness of beef. I am very delighted with the service and food. I will be coming back.

We were lucky to get a seat when we came in spontaneously on a Saturday night! One of the best restaurant experiences I've had. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive. The food and drinks were amazing. We sat at the bar and witnessed the first class cleanliness and efficiency of the prep team. The owner explained that the durian ice cream is made in house and I think it was the best possible introduction to durian - if you haven't tried it before I highly recommend it! The Saigon Sisters are currently in Vietnam sourcing ingredients, so you can bet on fresh, authentic and unique dishes from this gem of Vietnamese cuisine.

“Had a wonderful first experience.”

Had a wonderful first experience. The food was absolutely delicious, with plenty of great vegetarian options, which we really appreciated. The customer service was excellent and very welcoming, and we also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who made us feel truly at home. Almost 30% gratuity was already included in the bill, which is a noticeable addition, but given the level of service we received, we would have left it anyway. Overall, a fantastic dining experience, and we’re definitely looking forward to coming back.

“Great place to eat Vietnamese food and it has awesome service.”

Great place to eat Vietnamese food and it has awesome service. The chef is Vietnamese so rest assured it's got authentic food. The pork is absolutely delicious and it's got that creamy buttery taste so you can bet it's seared with great butter. The mango sticky rice is hot which is a great choice for winter. Thai tea tastes very refreshing. I absolutely love the vegetable salad in the lemongrass pork plate. It's seasoned with awesome sauce. I usually don't like salads but this one is absolutely awesome and I finished it all. The owner is a great person, he is very friendly and he makes sure every customer is well taken care of. Definitely going to be visiting here often whenever I get a chance to visit Chicago.

This Pho was delicious from start to finish. The broth was the star of the show not a drop of it was left. The service was fast and perfect for a quick lunch

“My family and I had an amazing experience here.”

My family and I had an amazing experience here! Even without a reservation on a super busy night, we were able to get seated at the bar, and the customer service was exceptional. You can truly tell the owner cares about the customers and takes pride in the food. We ordered the banh xeo, ramen, pho, bao buns, and mango sticky rice, which were all super FLAVORFUL and DELICIOUS! We will definitely be back every time we’re in town!

“Fried bbq jackfruit dumplings were good.”

Fried bbq jackfruit dumplings were good. Fried pork egg rolls were great. The Banh mi, sweet and spicy fried chicken, was the stuff dreams are made of. It was so good I had dreams about it the rest of the week. Great service despite the lunch rush. Added as favorite restaurant.

“Wonderful experience.”

Wonderful experience. The servers were attentive, atmosphere is great, food was stellar. We shared the shrimp spring rolls, and had the short rib pho and short rib banh mi. To drink, we had the Saigon Spritz and the Perfect Storm and were very pleased. Will absolutely be coming back next time we are in Chicago

“We came right when they opened around noon on a Saturday.”

We came right when they opened around noon on a Saturday. It’s a small restaurant but looks nicely decorated inside. The service was great. We both had pho, with one having Beef Short rib, and they were very good. The portions are smaller than most Pho places, but we were able to finish it all comfortably. The Banana Brown Butter cake was unique and sweet. It had an interesting sticky, caramely taste and chewy texture, it was really good overall. We’ll definitely come back to try other things on the menu.

“Excellent food, Excellent staff, amazing vibe.”

Excellent food, Excellent staff, amazing vibe. Absolutely love the super tall window next to the upper train, it's so cool! It's Great to always have a glass filled with water. It's the little things. Oh, and the crab fried rice is to die for. They even put an egg on top. Quite literally the best crab fried rice I ever had, and that's a bold statement. Definitely added this place to my short list. Five Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
