Overview

Saigon Bay Vietnamese Restaurant had located at 249 Oxford Street Darlinghurst since 1993. Darlinghurst is known as the heart of Sydney’s gay scene and the home of the Mardi Gras, this area is best known for its clubs, pubs & restaurants, one of the best place for most people hang out with their friends after work.

Saigon Bay offers authentic Vietnamese Cuisine in the warm friendly atmostphere, the restaurant had operated since 1993 and serves foods to a lot of happy returning customers. Vietnamese food has long been appreciated in France, the former colonial power, U.S. residents are only beginning to discover its many fine features.

Our Vietnamese chefs like to refer to our cooking as "the nouvelle cuisine of Asia." And indeed, with the heavy reliance on rice, wheat and legumes, abundance of fresh herbs and vegetables, minimal use of oil, and treatment of meat as a condiment rather than a main course, Vietnamese food has to be among the healthiest on the planet.

Was looking for Vietnamese places on site in area so we wouldn't have to walk far, rung this place looking for a certain dish, which they didn't have but offered a variety of other dishes on the phone that we could try! sold!!

Walked there in twenty minutes, the lady on the counter was great she remembered who I was and had organised a great seat for 2 for me and my girlfriend. Immaculate service as they came and ran through all the different meals and which are the best, got a great little entree which had chicken, veges and soup but they light the bowl and it cooks it in front of you, then wrap it with rice paper!! awesome!!

Then after that had beef chilli with coriander, great value, the little vietnamese lady was really cute but so efficient!! nice little setting, a little packed in, but what traditional vietnamese restaurant isn't!! great atmosphere, place was full but still managed to easily get a seat on arrival. I'm half vietnamese myself and eaten at alot of vietnamese places but this is by far one of the best!!! highly recommend!!!!

I've been going to Saigon Bay for years and rate it as the best Vietnamese place in Sydney. My favourite is Sizzling seafood that arrives on ironcast hotplate, delicious! The host is very nice and friendly. The place is always full (but they can always find a table for you) which is an indication of good quality food and great atmosphere. Never had any communicatoin problems, service is fast and efficient.

I love this place. The Camp fire chicken is always so delicious and a big crowd pleaser. Every time we come here we always enjoy our meal and the BYO is great. It's always no fuss, easy to get a table, enthusiastic service (despite the language barrier) and yum!

Good flavoursome vietnamese food. Lovely host. Good size portions. Excellent choice of entrees. Ask for a break between entree and main or they will arrive together. I've been going here for years. Never been disappointed. Its certainly not 5 star by any means but for the price its excellent!!

Couldn't find fault but didn't feel overly impressed. Fresh and good value. Could have been spicier. The waiter didn't speak a work of english but was charming none the less and everything we ordered arrived as requested. Cold beers!

Great food, sent out really quickly. Service difficult as few English-speaking staff. Experience enhanced enormously by sitting next to famous Australian film star.
