I went here a couple of weeks ago and they had amazing food! I ordered the pho, crispy chicken and deep fried pork spring rolls, it was honestly all so good! However, their spring rolls were deffs a fav of mine! Would argue they have the best spring rolls in all of christchurch!!! 😁😁😁
My family and I love this place. Nothing fancy to look at but the food and the service is always top class and we drive across Christchurch to eat here or get takeaways, it’s that good and the price is pretty good too. We have been coming here for years and will continue to do so and recommend to our friends.
Delicious meal!!! But seriously a bit more pork in my meal would’ve been wonderful!!! Catered to us very well great service. Meal was VERY DELIGHTFUL but more pork would’ve been beast. Thanks team for the delightful meal
This is hands down my favourite place for Pho Bo, crispy squid and some fresh spring rolls. The service is always sweet and quick. The prices are so affordable! I come here every second Sunday for date night and I'm always happy
Neat and tidy with good size sitting. A good variety of colourful dishes that will boost your appetite. Reasonable prices and worth to come back to try the rest of the menu as the staff provide a really good service with perfect smile. 👍🏽
Good food, not blow your mind amazing but it was yum. Super lovely staff and good fast service. Huge menu too! BYO and cheap food, pretty outstanding for a local
Prompt and friendly service great food with plenty of choices. Restaurant was busy on a Tuesday night which is a good sign. Will come again when next in NZ
The food here is great, the service is friendly but a bit understaffed for busy times. Same goes for the kitchen I think as the food can come out at staggered times. But the food is awesome and very reasonably priced.
This food is really amazing and super quick, I have been here a few times with my parents and overall had a great time, the waitress was really helpful and helped us with ordering even though my mother's diet is quite restricted due to having coeliacs disease she was able to recommend a lot of gluten free options, which my mother thoroughly enjoyed we were even able to have gluten free entree's, service was great and very pleasant, the food was super tasty. Will definitely be back and would highly recommend.
Were looking for somewhere different and found it - busy but still very efficient and quick delivery of our orders. Very pleasant helpful staff and a good experience. We will be back soon
I can strongly recommend The Thai Kitchen.. I have been eating there often over the last couple of years and am still always impressed by the food.
I find it hard to believe the several negative reviews on this listing.. Saigon Star is often very busy but I have never found the wait times or service to be an issue..
My personal favourites are their Chicken Lemongrass, Fresh Spring Rolls, and Chrispy Chicken.
Really good tasty food .You must try if you have not been.My favourite is no.73 in menu.Nice and friendly staff.
No longer the Happy Corner now called Saigon Star.
Really authentic Vietnamese food - lots of big flavors and my favorite sugar cane prawn mmmmm sooooo good!
I had the combination pho with fried chicken and my husband had the hot pot beef pho with fried squid. It tasted amazing. Though one thing I will mention is that they should add some music so its not too quiet and also clean the water jugs better 🥰 Other than that fantastic food.
This restaurant is consistently delicious! I have been going here moderately often for the past 4-5 years and have never been disappointed by the food or the service! The lemongrass fried noodles are amazing here as well as the pho! The chef is also super open to any changes you want to make which is great for people with any dietary restrictions! This place is great for a quiet lunch but also perfect for a dinner date!
Authentic Vietnamese Cuisine in Christchurch. Delicious beef noodle, spring rolls and drink.
We each had different meals and starters and they were all absolutely amazing. We were so impressed, the flavours were so unique and so delicious. Staff were great! Also, the drinks menu was priced reasonably which is a refreshing change in Christchurch. Could not recommend highly enough!
The first time I tried the beef pho it really filled my soul and tasted like I was back in Vietnam.. this second time soup base tastes different not very strong flavours... the fried spring rolls the shell of the spring rolls is the texture of like prawn shells and quite sharp and edgy when you bite into them... overall nice could have more noodles and beef in the pho for price...
We were served 3 delicious / flavourful meals
Highly impressed - definitely be back
Beef sate - chicken crispy noodle 🍜 - chilli garlic prawns
The taste is not perfect but it’s ok. Normally when you order Vietnamese iced coffee in North America, it comes with a Stainless Steel Vietnamese Coffee Drip Pot With a Coffee Filter Infuser which passes hot water through the grounds coffee into a cup that already contains condensed milk and ice. Here, the iced coffee just like a regular coffee with ice and condensed milk.
Fried rice was good overall, although the description said crispy (some Vietnamese speciality) which it didn't feel like - not sure if I misunderstood what it meant :). The chilli dip on the side was heavenly... Totally amped up the taste of the fried rice. Service was quick and staff was super friendly.
Crispy Chicken & Combo Fried Rice! 💕 I loooove Saigon Star Vietnamese Restaurant - super cheap meals made even cheaper with my Entertainment Book! 🌟 25% off! The total bill was a mere $34 for 4 dishes with leftovers to takeaway (Crispy Chicken, Combination Fried Rice, Fresh Chicken Spring Rolls and Beef Pho)! Service is great, and menu is huuuuge!!
Food is amazing! And also thanks for the good service! We tried Beef noodle soup, fresh spring roll, pancake and roasted chicken leg. I have to say everything is perfect and strongly recommend to try Beef noodle soup.
Must try. Been there few times and never dissapointed. Not a big place but enough to fill your tummy and heart with good food. Awesome spring rolls to start with and dessert, gone too quick.
This was a pleasingly appetising experience. The restaurant itself is quite tiny but it has a warm and inviting ambience. The produce they use in their dishes are fresh and flavoursome and they really contribute to the quality of their dishes. I highly recommend their beef pho and the beef coconut and mushroom stir fry. The beef was finely shaved and served medium rare which added to the sweet flavour of the dish. The vegetables were also al dente which heightened the tasty textured nature of the dish. I'm not much of a dessert man, but their deep fried banana and ice cream pud is a definite must!
It is my first time to eat Vietnamese food. Very delicious and tasty. I will go here again. Nice food, reasonable price. Love it❤️
