Saigon Paradise Restaurant

One of the better Viet places so far in Edm. Portion size is good but per plate runs about 15 dollars or more so not all that cheap.
Service was pretty good but the food came out over an extended time, sort of like Korean food of one dish at a time. Prefer my food together.
The salad and shrimp roles in rice wrapprr were excellent as was the chicken with rice noodles and veg. Would do these again for sure.
The Tenderloin beef plate was very tender but not much flavour. It was also 20 bucks for not a lot of meat. Not one I would get again.
The spicy lemon grass fried beef was very good as was the mixed veg plate. Total with rice and tip but no drinks beyond tea and one gingerale was 85 bucks. Had lots of left overs.
We will go back.

My beloved Nam’s on 137 was closed and I needed Phở STAT! So I took a cruise down 97 to see what I could find and was fortunate enough to come upon Saigon Paradise.
Was it my fave phở in the city? No. Would I return in a pinch? Absolutely.
It was clean, tons of parking and the service was just fine. If the food is good (which it was) then they’re hitting all the right notes of what a casual Vietnamese resto should entail.
The phở was big and hot and cheap ($ 10 for sliced beef bowl). It was positively loaded with fresh onion and cilantro which is not a standard treat and I appreciated it very much.

Fresh and delicious food. It’s hard to imagine that this little corner has so many delicious recipes. Top notch food quality. I had chicken with peanut sauce and crispy spinach (124). So rich and tasty! Their chicken in red curry (123) is also delicious — doesn’t come with rice so we ordered on the side.

Great food at Saigon Everyone who I take to this restaurant agrees the food is top notch. Service staff are excellent.
What more can I say then I recommend this place and no one ever complains

I’ve been here a few times, and I’m a fan :) The prices are reasonable, and the food is very good (my favourite is the gang som!). The service is also good, and the décor is classy but comfortable. I’d definitely recommend it :)

I have been to so many vietnamese restaurants around the Edmonton area that i could not count them all. This is the best my husband and i have found, and they have great prices. We have been going here for years and the waitresses know us, even over the phone.

Wow!!! The food was excellent, had pad thai and lemongrass chicken with salad rolls to start. Friendly server, well priced. Left full and happy. This is a true «hole in the wall» joint. Never had Vietnamese food before, and this place totally set the bar. I go as often as I can.

I love this place! I haven’t never been disappointed with the food. And the servers always remember my favorite order. Décor is a bit campy. But it adds to the experience :) I especially like the lobster with the glowing eyes.

I once owned this place when it was the restaurant before saigon paradise.
Its nice to see how they fixed it up and made more tables than it was before.
I love their vietnamese grilled dishes. They make it really good. The prices are good too. Service is fast and they are quite accomadating. I never really had anything else but some of the thai food looks good. But I just cant order thai food when I know the cook is vietnamese.
I personally think a resto needs to decide what food they wanna serve. The menu is daunting and overwhelming. So I just order the samething everytime. The grilled porkchop with egg over easy. Its consistently good and I never have to read the 10 page menu they provide.

Service was friendly enough, but combining Thai and Vietnamese in one restaurant, a good idea in theory, falls flat when you can’t execute on either one. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t good either, and definitely not cheap. Go to an authentic Thai or Vietnamese place.

Absolutely awesome food! You won’t be diappointed with anything you order. Gai harmaparn is excellent and the Pad Thai is visually stunning. Try the Vietnamese Salad Rolls or Green Onion Cakes to start.

As far as it goes, it was decent thai. The phad thai used angel hair rice noodles. It was ok… not amazing, just ok. The swimming rama (though they called it something else here) was also descent… could have used a lot more sauce though.
The cool part (other than the overly garish xmas tree and glowing angels) was the spinach that came with the swimming rama, it was instead of the usual steamed/​sauted spinach it was labeled as «crispy» spinach. This was deep fried spinach, it was crispy and tasted a bit like popcorn (oilly but tasty) and was sprinkled with salt and what I can only imagine was sugar! It was kind of like a tasty little treat on the side… interesting stuff.
