Saigon Royal Restaurant

Ordered takeout after a long day, hoping for a satisfying meal. I went with the Shrimp Salad Rolls, the Saigon Royal Special Vermicelli and an extra portion of porkballs. Unfortunately, the salad rolls that arrived weren’t shrimp at all—instead, it was a sautéed meat of some kind. Pretty disappointing, especially since I was really craving those shrimp rolls. On the upside, the Saigon Royal Vermicelli looked great right out of the box and came with a generous portion—definitely enough for one very hungry person. The shrimp, charbroiled pork, and meatballs all had that classic Vietnamese flavor I was expecting. It wasn’t mind-blowing, but it was tasty and filling, and the price felt fair. The standout for me? The Porkballs. Super flavorful and definitely the most memorable part of the meal. Glad I decided to order extra! Bottom line: Calgary has a ton of Vietnamese spots, so it’s tough for any one place to really shine. While Saigon Royal wasn’t my personal favorite, it does have a solid reputation and plenty of positive reviews. Give it a try—who knows, it might hit the spot for you.

Was back in Calgary for a quick visit. Met up with a friend who has never tried Vietnamese. I used to frequent this restaurant when we lived in Calgary. Food was great, service was good as well. My friend's intro to Vietnamese was highly successful. He loved it. Thanks!

Great place to grab lunch. Service was super friendly. We didn't know what we wanted, but we guided to 2 excellent choices. I had the spicy chicken pho, and my husband had the chicken and veggie on crispy noodles. Both so good! We were just passing through, but this was an awesome stop.

I can’t recommend this place enough. The food is incredible, so fresh and so flavourful. It never disappoints! The staff are friendly and attentive. Five stars all the way!

Tom and his family and staff are amazing! I’ve been visiting this place steadily for 10 years now, and I’m treated like family when I visit. Hands down the best Vietnamese in the City, and as everyone knows I am the number 1 fan of Order #28B , grilled chicken Thai satay soup. In fact, I believe I’ve had it well over 100 times in a row thus far- seriously! I don’t waiver from what I know is the best spot in town for my absolute favourite dish. Thanks Saigon for being a part of our community and providing a level of service that’s been lost in this day n age.

I’m a professional mixed martial coach, alongside my competitor Katie we decided to check out Saigon Royal restaurant for our pre-meal the night before an event here in Calgary. The service was absolutely outstanding. Better than the service was the food. I loved my vermicelli plate and the restaurant did a great job of accommodating to my fighters vegan restrictions. Her meal was absolutely amazing as well. If you’re in this neighborhood and you’re looking for great authentic Vietnamese food, I could not recommend this place enough. The only negative is that I do not live in Calgary and I cannot return. If for any reason, I do come back to this town I would absolutely visit this spot.

Came to place an order to go and the staff was absolutely lovely and so so welcoming. The food was amazing and the restaurant itself is very clean and nice. They made great recommendations for food and we will be back for sure!!
