Saigon Sisters sits at 567 W. Lake Street in Chicago's West Loop, a neighborhood spot built by two sisters and the mother who taught them everything. Mary Nguyen Aregoni and Theresa Nguyen grew up surrounded by the flavors of Vietnam and France, and that upbringing shows in every corner of the dining room. Stop in for a full sit down meal or grab something quick to go, we're open for dine in, takeout, delivery and catering.
About Us
Our menu carries the same recipes that once filled a small Pho station at the Chicago French Market, now grown into banh mis, baos, curries, pho and stir fries built on fresh herbs, pickled vegetables and broths simmered low and slow. You'll taste Vietnam in the lemongrass and nuoc cham, and a little bit of France in the crisp baguette that holds a classic banh mi together. It's the kind of food that tastes like it came from someone's kitchen, because it did.

First time visiting and Saigon Sisters went above and beyond anything I was expecting. It’s a small spot with a lot of class. The service was really attentive and sweet. The food was absolutely delicious! We had shrimp spring rolls with a peanut dipping sauce, the chicken and pork Pad Thai and beef fried rice… really ... good! Elevated compared to other places. For dessert, we tried the Dubai Chocolate and Banana Brown Butter Cake… really well balanced! They have mocktails that are really good and my regular old fashioned was very tasty. On top of everything, the space is cozy and really nice relaxed atmosphere. Couldn’t recommend it more. I will go back soon. Places like these are a blessing. You would be blessed to visit. Read More
Food and service were EXCELLENT! My party was absolutely in love with their banh bao, fried rice, and spicy noodles. The pork spring rolls were excellent as well! The owner is very kind and goes around talking to all the guests. I will be returning!
After researching the best Asian restaurants in the city, I decided to celebrate my mother-in-law's birthday at Saigon Sisters, and it exceeded every expectation. Dan greeted us warmly as soon as we arrived. I had called ahead because my Uber was running late, and he was incredibly accommodating, making us feel ... welcomed from the moment we walked in. We started with the chicken steamed dumplings, pork and shrimp fresh spring rolls, and vegetable spring rolls. The spring rolls were unbelievably fresh and absolutely delicious. We also ordered the duck bao, which was filled with tender, moist duck, crisp cucumbers, and a perfectly balanced plum sauce. My daughter ordered the Bo Luc Lac, and it was bursting with flavor. The steak was incredibly tender and juicy, and the accompanying salad was one of the freshest we've ever had, topped with an amazingly flavorful dressing. My mother-in-law thoroughly enjoyed the stir-fried vegetables, which were cooked perfectly and packed with fresh flavor. To finish our meal, we shared the Dubai chocolate cake and the banana brown butter cake. Both desserts were outstanding and the perfect ending to a fantastic dining experience. A special thank you to Harley, our server, who provided impeccable service throughout the evening. She was attentive, friendly, and helped make my mother-in-law's birthday celebration truly memorable. From the warm hospitality to the exceptional food and outstanding service, Saigon Sister delivered a five-star experience. We can't wait to return! Read More
The food was great! Me and my friends went for a dinner and we enjoyed every bite! It was fresh and made to perfection and I am not even exaggerating. The price was great for the quality you’ll get. The service was immaculate! Their attention to detail was exceptional. We were lucky to meet the owner and he was very ... warm and welcoming. Definitely coming back for more! Read More
Was pleasantly surprised by Saigon Sisters! Went in not knowing what to expect, but the food blew me away. The octopus was full of flavor, and the dumplings and short rib pho were delicious. If you appreciate great Vietnamese food with some adventurous dishes on the menu, definitely give this place a try!
Guests come back for our banh mi sandwiches on crackly French baguettes and a steaming bowl of beef pho. Soft steamed bao buns and fresh pork and shrimp spring rolls round out the table, and spice lovers order the lemongrass-scented bun bo hue.
We cook Vietnamese food from our family's recipes, from the Vietnamese street food Mama Suu served at the French Market to signature plates like bo luc lac. The menu also draws on Southeast Asian favorites such as laksa and green curry, alongside wider Asian noodle and rice dishes.
