Nice, authentic Vietnamese restaurant run by very lovely people. Pho noodle soup was great and full of flavour. Will definitely go back in the future!
Small and a unique Vietnamese resto. The noodle soups are to die for. Spicy and authentic. This place is run by the couple so please be patient until you are served. I would recommend you to arrive at 5.30 pm when the restaurant opens else it will get really busy during the peak hours. Will definitely return.
Great food! Fresh and quality dishes and good portion sizes!
We had a wonderful dinner, the place was packed and our dinner came without delays. It was very good, the sour soup was amazing, we also had Báhn Tâm and salt and pepper squid. We shall return!!
Amazing effort. I couldn't believe that this husband and wife served the whole restaurant on their own on a Saturday night, and did it better than many with much greater teams.
Having said that, don't be in a hurry and forgive the wait because it is worth it.
The food is great, the value outstanding and the service although a little harried and slow at times is always polite.
I had the green papaya salad and the prawns were tender and generous and my companion the pancake, texturally very interesting if not really a healthy meal. The soups were great and I recommend these to start, or something else, so you don't have a big wait.
I will be back on my next visit to the GC.
Best cold rolls on the Gold Coast!
Fabulous. What a great little find! Amazing pho and other delicious authentic Vietnamese fare. It's a very simple restaurant, but friendly service and great prices

Authentic vietnamese food, friendly good service but a little slow cause but its worth your wait. Its a family business the wife is the cook & the husband is the waiter. Must try!
Amazing food!!. New Saigon has the freshest and tastiest Vietnamese food I've had the pleasure of eating. The rice paper rolls and vermicelli salads are so full of flavour and just explode in your mouth! Sometimes there is a bit of a wait for the food but it is definitely worth it.

the Banh Khot, these little coconut and turmeric shell of crispy goodness had prawns on top and very fresh lettuce to accompany them. Absolutely beautiful and totally worth it!
Vietnamese cuisine is scant on the Gold Coast, but New Saigon arguably serves the most authentic, ‘un-westernised’ national food you’ll find here.
In pride of place are three dishes which Hai says are most typical of South Vietnam: Bánh Xèo – a crisp Viet pancake wrapped around a filling of prawns, onion and bean sprouts with accompanying herbs and salad, served with sweet chilli sauce; Bánh Khot (Khot Cake) – small round crispy coconut cake filled with cooked prawns, coconut sauce served with a large side salad; and Bánh Tàm
Amazing food and great service.
We eat here and get takeaway all the time and it is always fantastic.
Absolutely love the salads, they are delicious! But you cant really go wrong the soups and stir frys are brilliant too and the summer rolls and crispy fried quail are great starters! So many amazing flavors, very authentic and reasonably priced.
We are blessed to have this lovely little restaurant on the end of our road!
Its true the service can be a little slow, though it is run by a husband and wife team on their own, We have found that arriving early is the best way to get great service before the busy dinner rush arrives. I read the other reviews and noticed the only two that are low rating didn't get to try the food. If the actually had the chance to taste the food that is filled with the aromatic favours from the fresh herbs, most likely would have given a much higher rating. As the food more than makes up for anytime that that you may have to wait, be patient people it is well worth the wait
I have been to this restaurant more than any other in my life at least 20 times and takeaway about 15 times. New Saigon has never failed! Great food great service great value we regularly meet friends there and often see other regulars like Pat and June with their friends. Highly recommended!
The best pho ga on the Gold Coast so far! We’ve only recently moved down from Brisbane and have been searching for a good pho. Fans of Vietnam having been there 3 times recently, we have a little idea of an authentic pho. Highly recommended!
Not to mention, have just spoken to the owner and he tells us they are retiring and the property is on the market! Not happy Jan!!!!!! 😫😂😆

Small family place, been a few times and loved it every time. Takes a while to get the meal but it’s worth it. Always has Vietnamese people dining as well!
What a great little restaurant! Super friendly service and a great range of food at decent prices. Phuket prawns and Summer rolls were definite favourites. Ate there twice during our week stay on the Gold Coast... it was that good!
