Asked to be taken here for my birthday lunch. Asked very enthusiastic staff-owners (who gave up their day jobs for love of cooking family restaurant-worthy recipes) to recommend menu which I probably wouldn't have picked but turned out to be wonderful quickly delivered, spicy, exciting meal of many dishes - came out to $17 each which included a free condensed coffee for dessert. Other diners were business people on lunch meeting, a father with a young daughter, a group of shopping friends, a couple, and a birthday event. Came out very happy, extremely full with money in our pocket. Nice to have parking at centre too. Definitely recommend it.Just read the great full page journalist review on...
As recommended the family met there for a Sunday lunch. Yes the lunch specials are cheap but it's very small portions. The food took a long time to come as there appears to be only this old couple running the whole place. The Vietnamese famous pho is no where near the real thing. The pork chop is such a small portions that even it's cheap it is not worth the $12. Also please be careful if you are going there on the weekends daytime, the weirdest "clearway" hours have been imposed for the weekend so if you park your car outside the restaurant on Mona Vale Road your car may be tolled. Disappointed that the restaurant did not warn us even though they obviously knew the toll track comes out at 2...
We enjoyed a wonderful meal at this restaurant last Wednesday. Fortunately, we made a reservation as it was completely full. The food was fresh, delicious, flavorful, and affordable. This restaurant is exactly what the upper north shore needs - mouthwatering dishes at reasonable prices in a laid-back atmosphere. The fact that you can bring your own beverages is a bonus. The staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming. This will definitely be a regular spot for us. Our favorite dish was the pancakes.
Great restaurant on Mona Vale Road St Ives. Salt and Pepper Squid is just Excellent. Pancakes were OK but a little bit bland. Generally an Excellent restaurant with Good service and good prices. However the acoustics need to looked at as it's extremely noisy inside with a reverberating din. The acoustic panels on the wall need to be applied to the ceiling too to deaden the bouncing around sounds. Otherwise all good indeed. Great restaurant...

Went here with friends on a Saturday night - make sure you book as it is not a large restaurant. Unfortunately it also has a lot of hard surfaces and is quite noisy. The staff were friendly and efficient, but it was a pity that the food was quite bland and not as spicy / tasty as Vietnamese should be. Would return, but not too soon. Being BYO is a bonus.
I recently had my birthday dinner at Petit Saigon with friends and I was extremely impressed with the service and food. The waiter was very attentive, especially since many in our group were dining there for the first time. He expertly paired entrees and mains, allowing everyone to enjoy their favorite dish while also trying something new.
The food from Petite Saigon has been absolutely wonderful on the numerous occasions which we have eaten or gotten takeaway food. The staff are always happy to tell our family which choices are gluten free and vegetarian. The Pho is absolutely wonderful and have it nearly every time I eat here.
Yet another Asian restaurant serving dishes that are not authentic but to the middle class tastes of suburban Sydney they go down a treat. Loaded with sugar, the dining experience is nothing short of disappointing.

Quaint little Vietnamese restaurant in St Ives. Small but adequate menu. Beautiful fresh food and flavours. Good service. Can get busy so go early. Have been several times.
What a fantastic Vietnamese restaurant- amazing food and amazing service! Definitely worth the trip!
