Saigon Saigon

About Saigon Saigon

Saigon Saigon in London’s well heeled Hammersmith proves that Vietnamese dining can equal sophistication and class. Elegantly appointed in dark wood and bamboo, surrounded by intricate carvings and black and white photography from ‘40s Saigon, the dining room is a million miles away from the canteens more usually associated with this delicious and oft overlooked cuisine. During warmer afternoons and evenings, the glass frontage is opened to allow tables and chairs to spill on to the pavement and a light breeze to cool the room, the ideal atmosphere in which to enjoy the flavours of South Asia. The Saigon Saigon menu changes seasonally to make the best of available ingredients, but throughout the year highlights the varied and unusual history of a cuisine influenced by a past not only as a small Asian nation but as one long occupied by France. So you’ll find strong Gallic flavours permeating more traditional noodle and beansprout dishes and orders served all at once, feast style. Staff in traditional silk dresses provide polite and efficient service throughout your meal and beyond, should you choose to head below stairs to enjoy the decadent surroundings of the Saigon Saigon bar.
