Saigon Flavors

The Write-Up

The full story

Oviedo's prettiest Vietnamese room, family-owned, with colorful walls, lit cubbies of bric-a-brac and paintings of old Saigon scenes. The pho is the anchor, with rich broth and generous beef that one guest calls the best pho here, and the Curry Chicken Noodle Soup gets called one of the best things a visitor has ever tasted. The golden pancake arrives crisp and bright, and Charlie's Special lemon chicken is the house signature.
