Review: Little Saigon

Hello there, good to see you again.

Little Saigon 2800 Paxton St, Harrisburg, PA 17111

(717) 561-1117

An absolute treasure of Harrisburg Vietnamese cuisine, the sensation of authentic, nostalgic, food that you will enjoy, to the heart and soul of Vietnam.

As you can see, the prices are so cheap, and I guaranteed you Little Saigon has the best tasting Vietnamese food and lowest price in the area, a true gem of Harrisburg!!!

  

Have you ever had Soy drink? If not, give it a try, it's really creamy and semi-sweet and best of all, healthy for you.

The famous spring rolls are the ultimate sensation of Vietnamese appetizers. Spring rolls are a must-order when you come here, and their house sauce is sensational better than any place I've tried. Oh, and some place has this "rice shell smell" that is not pleasant to eat (smell like rotten starch), but that's not the case for Little Saigon. As you sink your teeth in, you will get the sensation of fresh ingredients the refreshing tastes of Vietnamese herbs paired with the exceptional taste of the dipping sauce.

And here comes the superstar of Little Saigon: the famous beef pho, I can assure you after this bowl of goodness, you will add Vietnamese cuisine to your all time favorite list. The broth is cooked to it's perfection, not to much MSG (how to tell if MSG is excessive is when you have finished eating, if it has too much MSG, you'll have a dry throat and much phlegm). The beef collagen explodes in your mouth, and to balance all the flavor are the herbs. It is a perfection in one bowl. I like to add hoisin sauce to my broth to add that unique sweetness. You might like sriracha sauce, but definitely add lime juice and basil in your bowl.

Side garnish that you can add in. Basil, bean sprout, cilantro, jalapeno, and lime.

Not a big fan of noodle soup but want to try the awesomeness of Vietnamese cuisine? Try this bun bo xao, pretty much like pho salad without the soup. It's very intense in fresh flavors; it's so good so very very good.

They also have very good desserts and meat buns. The owner is a very nice man, too.

My only complain for Little Saigon is the atmosphere and a little bit of cleanliness of the place. Not the food of course, but if you don't mind the super casual atmosphere, try this place right now, it's so good you won't regret it!
