    Another wonderful evening at Saigon. The food never disappoints, and neither does the service, especially from Christian. Possibly the most consistent restaurant in Cape Town!!

    We have been going to Saigon regularly for more than 15 years, which in itself tells a positive story. On Sunday we decided to have their Winter Special which is Oxtail. Everyone at our table raved about it. The meat literarily fell off the bone, and the sauce / gravy was delicious. As a suggestion, you could order it as a Starter, and share it amongst your guests. Our favourite Cape Town restaurant by far.
