Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Welcomed on arrival, seated immediately, offered water to drink while looking at the food and drinks menu. Service and food outstanding. Even though the restaurant was very busy, the staff were attentive. Thoroughly enjoyed every bite and minute of our evening in this fabulous place 😀

The food here is tasty and portions are ample, service was pretty good as well.
However, having eaten out a few times on the weekend of lockdown ending, this was the only venue which left us concerned.
Menus and condiments are not disposable and were visibly dirty and sticky to touch. It also seems they have misunderstood the distancing regulations, as diners are within a meter of each other when 2 adjacent tables are in use.

We didn’t come to Sheffield for food, we came to see a band at a local venue, which we loved. However, the highlight of our few days here was the wonderful food we’ve just eaten at this restaurant, for a very fair price. The additional bonus was the lovely people that work here! Strongly recommend Saigon68 to visitors, but would like to remind local people just how lucky they are to have this beautiful place in their midst.

I'm very disappointed today. My partner and I looked at the menu online and saw that they did a vegetarian appatiser (mix platter) and a meat one. I'm vegan and my partner is not, the platters were about £6 each on average. It said on the website that the platters were a minimum of 2 people so when we asked over the phone if it would be ok to order single portions given that I'm vegan of which they said that's fine.
I also ordered a tofu and vegetarian chicken claypot priced at £8 and my partner ordered Char Siu Pork which cost about £7 so I expected to get more for my money. We also ordered some chips to share which was about £2.They told us that it would be ready in about 30 minutes and because we were collecting it they would apply a discount and it would cost £29 something, we worked it out that it would cost about £32.
When we arrived to pick it up they wanted to charge us £32 and I mentioned that we'd been quoted £29 because of delivery and they said that they wouldn't because we ordered single portions of the platters so I accepted that and paid the difference. Moment's later the manager approached me and said that the price was wrong because we only ordered single portions and wanted to charge me another £11 on top for an extra 1 person portion per platter. I made the argument that we were told that it would be ok because one was vegetarian and one wasn't which is 2 people. He said that the person answering the phone was new and we wouldn't get food without paying.
On a plus, they were giving people free bottles of beer which was nice.
When we got home and starting eating the platters were eatable and good in portion size but it was smothered in chilli making it too spicy and neither of us ended up eating all of the food.
In terms of the mains, both were the same size so the vegetarian one was more money for no apparent reason and was quite poor in my opinion because I got about 12 pieces of vegi chicken and the rest was vegetable stock and diced onion. Not the most tastiest thing in the world.
On reflection, we ended up paying close to £50 for 2 people, very expensive. My advice for anyone looking to order from here is to go to a place called Tang in Lowedges which do the same sort of food, vegan and non. We've never paid more than £35 pound there and have ordered platters as well as mains and sides and they have no problem with making single portions of platters.

Service was lovely (however I should specify there was only 1 other table there at the time). Food was of okay to decent quality but not flavor, nor was it prepared in the Vietnamese style. I grew up eating Vietnamese food prepared by ppl born in Vietnam (and 1st gen immigrants). this was by far the worst "Vietnamese" I've had in my 40 years (tho I've only tried it about 6 times in UK since it always lets me down).
The menu was mostly Chinese (Cantonese for the most part) and some Thai, which was a huge red alarm. I chose a few Vietnamese items and 1 Cantonese. Out of 5 dishes, only one was okay (pan fried dumplings), but still didn't have authentic flavor. The spring rolls seemed to be from frozen and were the 2nd worst I've had in my entire life, zero flavor (my white british friend who prefers unseasoned chicken and potatoes liked this place, which says it all). The banh xeo was horrible, I couldn't stomach more than 1 bite. The pancake wasn't crispy, the shrimp wasn't seasoned, and it had watery veggies and zero flavor. The "chargrilled" beef was in fact, not chargrilled, nor was it properly seasoned. And what seasoning anything DID have, wasn't Vietnamese (North or South). The nuoc cham was mostly water. And everything was quite greasy.
The employees were Chinese and I'm suspecting there aren't any actual Vietnamese folks working here. I'm sad at tall the raving reviews. If British folks think this is what Vietnamese is, it breaks my heart.
I hate having to give bad reviews, but I'm so homesick for real, authentic food. Why can't the UK do Vietnamese or Mexican?! Is it because the locals will hate it? Is it because there's next to no Vietnamese or Mexican people here here?! I think this place should change their name, it's incredibly misleading. If you know what actual Vietnamese cuisine is, AVOID at all costs. If you like bland, under-seasoned, oily, anglo- Cantonese, you may like it. And again the service was great. But I am beyond disappointed myself.

After remortgaging the house to pay for the cost of the takeaway food I was excited to try £5.50 egg fried rice! Ordered the prawn rice paper rolls which was packed to the brim of mint and coriander I physically had to spit it out. The roasted pork must of been cooked under a candle as it was just pure fat, completely inedible! Straight in the bin. The £5.50 ‘fried rice’ was actually just boiled rice. Ordered the crispy duck and received 3 strings of spring onion to go with it. Absolutely disgusting food, £33 down the drain and nothing to eat for dinner. AVOID!

The food at this restaurant used to be lovely so having not been for about 10 years I was looking forward to it. Unfortunately it is nothing like it was. The food was bland tasting. We ordered sweet and sour chicken (hardly any chicken and lots of prawns), beef with lemongrass and chilli (not a hint of lemongrass), chicken in ginger and spring onion, and special fried rice. We all were left with banging headaches so it must have been laced with MSG. Very disappointing.

Really bad experience food really bland and on top of that one of us a vegetarian and one of us a vegan we were served a curry with chicken in it. Really annoying as we told them as soon as we entered the restaurant. This really put us off and we will not be returning.

Having been to this restaurant numerous times and loved it, I was so disappointed with the food delivery yesterday. None of the 3 dishes tasted how they should with szechuan flavour. Each dish was predominantly bulky/hacked veg and lacking in meat. They all tasted washed out. When ordering a red curry we were expecting a red Thai curry having had ordered that before and a very basic chip shop style curry sauce came. Left really disappointed having had such lovely meals there before. The menu is far too big, they should reduce it and focus on cooking good quality dishes.

We visited end of July and had a lovely meal. So much to choose from. Excellent starters and main meal. Had a takeaway this week, again wonderful. Veg spring rolls delicious, kids loved the spare ribs and BBQ sauce, husband loved beef in Szechuan sauce, sweet and sour chicken delicious according to my eldest daughter. I had bean curd with ginger and chilli, again so tasty. Flat rice and egg noodles perfect. All in all wonderful meal.

I ordered Chinese style stir fried noodles with prawns. It had hardly any vegetables even the picture of the dish I looked at promisses a lot of them. It was expensive and not tasty. My first and last order in this place.

I must start this review by saying I've personally never been to Vietnam or Hong Kong for that matter but, if I had I am sure the sublime food from Saigon 68 would have transported me physically back to South East Asia. In fact if I had taken the 8,000 mile trek to Vietnam over the the Himalayas and Saigon 68's Vegetable Spring Rolls were waiting for me it would have made the arduous journey worth every step.
I now feel inclined to visit Vietnam myself just because of how inspirational those spring rolls were.
We also had some vegetarian Chicken Noodles which were also pretty good too.

I eat here on a regular basis and think it is an overall lovely and cosy first class Asian food restaurant. Having read other reviews which are not as complimentary as my own..its always the case you cannot please all of the people all of the time but my own is one of excellence over a few years..give it a go most guests love it.

We were overcharged on the night – it was a simple communication error, nobody's fault, and we went in the following day and Jason (lovely guy) sorted it right out for us. Turns out they'd already caught the error when they were counting the till at the end of the night. Thanks, Jason!

Went with a friend after a recommendation, lunch time on the Eat Out to Help Out scheme so busy. Portion size just big enough so not over full, quick service. Not much atmosphere in the restaurant, wouldn't have gone in if not for the recommendation bit glad I did as the food was delicious.
