Saigon Surface - Omaha

Phenomenal food. This has become my favorite spot to eat in Omaha. Wonderful menu and skillfully prepared. The food is so well balanced and has such amazing flavor. Service can be a bit hit and miss but honestly the food is so good I'd wait twice as long to eat it and still be happy Update as of 12/8/22: the food was perfect AGAIN and the service was AMAZING! WITH Worth every penny!

Besides pho, I've never had Vietnamese food before. I decided to try Saigon Surface, and boy am I glad I did. Vietnamese is easily in my top 5 favorite food types now. Everything was expertly prepared and so FRESH. If you're worried about portions, don't be. I can usually pack away some vittles; I hadn't eaten much today, and I left full after an entree and appetizer. Loved this place! Will be back, and will tell everyone I know.

Saigon surface is always a great experience for me ordering from door dash, and that's saying a lot. Everything is always meticulously prepared and the taste is always great. I recommend the Ox tail Pho and the Mi Vit Tiem (roast duck soup). The rolls are great as well if you're looking for a different flavor profile than your standard Chinese takeout eggrolls. I've made Pho before and it is not easy nor quick. They deliver time after time with phenomenal flavor and great service. Also, you'll probably have a hard time finishing a serving of Pho in one sitting, especially if you have something like eggrolls or calamari to go with it. That being said, mine is usually gone in less than 15 minutes because I just can't bring myself to stop This is what the Mi Vit Tiem looks like up close. Rich, dark broth that's not too heavy and absolutely PACKED with flavor. 10/10 would recommend.

Wow.. every time I come here I keep thinking I'll get something else. But nothing beats the Tilapia Clay pot. Tilapia, caramelized potatoes, rice, and the most incredible curry drizzle you'll ever have. It's tangy, hearty, sweet, oily (in a good way). Almost makes me want to get another side of rice just so I can justify having the rest of the sweet nectar. Um. So yeah. Highly recommend.

Finally... I had to see what the rave was about! Pho this.... Pho that. I must admit this place is really cute, nice atmosphere. I ordered the beef oxtail Pho added chicken and mushrooms. Spring rolls too. My guest ordered the same plus Hot and sour soup. The food was exceptionally fresh, huge portions. Very very tasty!!! I will be back 100
