Elgin Saigon

Absolutely loved dining here! The flavors are vibrant and well-balanced, hitting the mark between innovative and comforting without being pretentious. The service is excellent—attentive without being intrusive. The staff is fantastic, remembering dietary needs and making spot-on recommendations that suit everyone. The atmosphere is welcoming and comfortable, with great lighting and decor. It's ideal for any occasion, be it a date, business meal, or a treat for yourself. Can't wait to return and try more from the menu!

The gnocchi with braised lamb is tender and has no smell, filling the mouth with a delicious flavor. The gnocchi is very soft and very tasty The chips and dips have a gentle flavor, and you can eat the whole thing and not get heartburn. The chips are also just the right thinness. There is a wide selection of wines, so there is no need to avoid them. I am very satisfied with the price for a dish that tastes as good as the ones I had in Paris. The waitstaff was courteous, friendly and very pleasant.

I was very looking forward to this one…it turns out to be a disappointment. Starting off with a bad experience with the parking. I have called in advance to make a booking and confirmed that there is car parking at the restaurant. However, when we arrived no one seemed to be assisting us with the parking. I had to leave my vehicle and go inside to approach a waitstaff. They told us to just park on the street but it was a non-parking street. Therefore, we have to park somewhere far away and walk back to the place. The food was alright, nothing extraordinary. I recommend wagyu appetizer, the presentation was amusing. The toffee pudding was worth the hype. Delicious! That dessert alone is worth the visit. One big letdown is the duration and the consistency of the food coming out. Everything was disorganized and every dish took a whole big gap of waiting time to be served. The staff was friendly and attentive but lack training and professionalism. The attitude was informal but not in a rude way. At the end of our meal, the waitress asked us how was everything, I replied “it was good but the food took forever to come out” she then chuckled and didn’t respond. What’s the point of asking??? The overall vibe of the place has a pleasant feel to it. A decent casual dinner spot with friends or family. Personally, I wouldn’t return because I did not have a good impression here. The price we paid and the service we got did not justify.

Really enjoyed Elgin. Dined solo at the bar, was well looked after by the staff, chef explained all the dishes which always adds to it. Recommend everything I had - cold noodles and cuttlefish, scallops, duck roti, pork belly, and sticky toffee pudding. Skin contact wine was good too. Highly recommended as something a bit different.

The food at Elgin made me open my Google Account to write review immediately! Elgin was such a hidden gem for casual dining in Saigon with decent price. We came on a Sunday night and it was very quiet, so I really more people would check this place out. Everything we ordered was spot on! So delicious!! My absolute favorite was the hamachi crudo, duck confit, and pork belly. The pork belly could be a little bit smelly due to the fish sauce, but this dish went heavenly well with white rice. My staff was so attentive and friendly was well. Elgin will definitely become my go-to restaurant when I cant think of what to eat. It's so casual and delicious!!

Definitely one of my favourite restaurants in Saigon. Friendly and quick service, with warm welcomes every visit. Have dined as a couple and with groups, and always leave satisfied and full! Cocktails and mocktails are tasty. Wine selection is great and reasonable. And of course the food is great - Pork Belly and the Mushroom Risotto are favourites. Don't forget to leave room for dessert too, especially the sticky date pudding! Owners really understand hospitality and deliver every time! Update: new lunch menu also a hit. Will always recommend this place to friends and visitors.

Traveling SE Asia for the past 2 weeks and this was by far the best food so far! Highly recommend the smoked oyster pasta - it was divine!! Also everything else was delicious. The restaurant itself is cozy and the staff has been super welcoming & friendly - made us feel right at home!

Delicious food, helpful staffs, and not overprice compared to other Michelin restaurants. We had a light dinner with 4 foods, 2 drinks (1 cocktail, 1 red wine by glass) and it costed less than 2 mil vnd. Highly recommend!
