Saigon Vegan Garden Grove

While running errands in the area, I stumbled upon this gem on the HappyCow app and am thrilled I did. I decided to try the Mi Xao Mem and was delighted by the delicious taste of the noodles and shiitake mushrooms. The veggies were cooked perfectly as well. The server was also very friendly and kind. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be returning in the future!

However, I was taken aback when I received a notification that the restaurant had increased the price of my order to $34 from the expected $18, not including delivery fees. This seemed excessive for just a few extra veggies. I felt like I was overcharged and disappointed since I am on a budget and don't order in often. Due to this, I will not be ordering from this restaurant for delivery again.

I typically write reviews on Yelp, but I had to come onto Google to share my experience at this restaurant. They have taken traditional Vietnamese dishes and turned them into delicious vegan options. I highly recommend trying the chicken curry, Bo kho beef stew, bun bo hue, or the fish thi la lot - all of which are packed with veggies. Even if you're not vegan, this place is a must-visit. My chef mom was impressed with the bun bo hue. They also offer outdoor seating for your furry friends. The prices are reasonable considering the effort put into each dish - you can easily feed the whole family here!

After finding this restaurant through Yelp, I discovered a variety of delicious Vietnamese dishes made with vegan ingredients. I highly recommend trying the chicken curry, beef stew, and fish wrapped in leaves. My mom, who is a great cook, was impressed by the bun bo hue. They also offer outdoor seating for those who prefer dining outside. The prices are reasonable considering the quality of the food. Overall, a great place to bring the whole family!

I'll start with the positives - I ordered takeout and it arrived quickly and still hot. I ordered the Portobello mushrooms and pad thai with extra toppings. The Portobello mushrooms were delicious and one of the best things I've ever eaten. The order came with a dipping sauce, but could have used more. The pad thai was decent, I would give it a 7 out of 10, but I consider myself a Thai food enthusiast so my standards are high. The dish had some broccoli and cauliflower added, but for the total price of $18 (not including delivery fees), I was shocked to see my bill increased to $34, which seemed excessive. I understand I requested extra toppings, but I don't believe it justified the additional cost. As someone on a budget who only orders takeout occasionally, this was disappointing. I won't be ordering from this restaurant for delivery again.
