Saigon Drip has the best banh mi in town, worth the drive and the price. The sandwiches are packed with butter and meat, never stingy, and the bread is always fresh. The cold cut banh mi is a favorite, and the new banh mi drip with a side of soup is amazing, pairing so well with the flavors. The restaurant is clean, with nice decor and friendly staff. Parking is paid right across the street. Highly recommend.

Top 3 favorite sandwich spots in SEA. These banh mi drips are made of dreams, happiness and a plentiful amount of meat and sauce. I also recommend their wings. Great location in pioneer square. It's a casual setting and perfect to hit up before a Ms or Seahawks game so you don't pay inside the stadiums. First time I was here I was solo, as I had ended a bike ride here. the owner/manager came over several times to check how I liked everything. He was very personable.

Saigon Drip has been on my to-try list for some time, with interesting looking Vietnamese inspired entrees. I have been to Saigon Drip a couple of times, since then - mostly during the week and once during the weekend, and at both lunch and dinner time. Like most places in this part of Seattle, finding parking nearby is very difficult if you are looking for free streetside parking during peak hours. I would recommend going during off hours to ease the pain of finding a parking spot, unless you are OK with parking in a paid garage. Service is decent at the restaurant, you place your order at the cashier either through a server or through the ordering tablet, and take a number. The server will then bring out your food to your table. The ambiance is definitely casual dine-in with cozy Vietnamese/general Asian decorations throughout the restaurant. Size-wise I would say the restaurant leans on the smaller side, only being able to seat about 30-40 people at max. I'll review the two items that I think most people would come to Saigon Drip for down below: Banh Mi Drip ($17): A great idea for an entree as it takes the au jus sandwich and elevates it to using the flavorful bone broth with asian spices as a dipping alternative! A tasty sandwich, where the meat is extremely tender, hearty, and flavored well - sort of imagine a philly cheesesteak in texture paired with a delicious and slightly more concentrated pho broth. I think as delicious as this sandwich was, I don't think it should be $17, as this price only includes the sandwich. I think for most people, this will not be enough food and definitely needs to be supplemented with some other side. Brisket Pho ($19): Solid pho with nice cuts of brisket and a fragrant and delicious broth. I think in terms of Pho, if you are in the Seattle city area, is good in comparison to the other Vietnamese restaurants. There are some downsides though: there is only 1 size, whereas other Vietnamese restaurants offer small, medium, and large for sizes. This bowl of pho is $19! Size comparison is equal to a small or medium at other pho restaurants. To be honest, I think pho should be one of those affordable food options that is not meant to be expensive. In my opinion, in terms of Vietnamese food in the Seattle region, Saigon Drip is pretty solid. Definitely tasty and absolutely delicious food for sure, but I think price-wise it's steep for the quantity of food received. I have been to Pho restaurants where you can specify a larger pho for $14-$15, unlike Saigon Drip's preset price of $19 for a smallish to medium bowl, which is unfortunate. Same feelings for the other items on the menu, like the Banh Mi Drip, which is absolutely delicious and has a great indulging flavor and texture profile, but in the end, it is $17 for a small sandwich. I also did go once during their anniversary/birthday celebration where menu items were a bit cheaper than they are now, during which I thought the prices was actually decent. I would say, if you in or near Chinatown and really craving Vietnamese food, Saigon Drip has got you covered if you don't mind the pricing.

I came for my birthday not too long after this place opened and the food was excellent! I like the drink I had and how they put them into a bottle that looks like a big can of soda! I ordered another drink to go and an iced coffee. The iced coffee was delicious but way too strong for me as I am sensitive to caffeine. Parking is not good at all and we parked pretty far away and had to walk. There were a lot of homeless people around and construction but everyone was tending to their own business. The restaurant was super clean with a lot of drink offering but very little seating! It definitely feels like a to go kind of place. It has been awhile since we went but everything was delicious. I can't recall everything we ordered but we had a sandwich that came with broth to dip in, I think we had some wings, and then we had the big pho fountain thing they bring to your table like a hot pot! No complaints and hope to make it back these soon with some friends!

Came here on a week day for lunch to try out their Banh Mi. I ordered their most popular item which was the Banh Mi Drip and it was amazing!! One of the most flavorful bahn mi's I've had in a while! The meat inside is tender and moist and it pairs well with the mayo and grilled onions. The dip is a sweet pho broth that paired surprisingly well with the Banh Mi. However, I do think that $17 is a bit pricy for a banh mi hence the 4 star rating. The service was very quick! I placed my order and received it within 5 minutes. The ambience is nice and fun and they have an open seating area inside. Parking: Paid Street parking out front

Such a great place. Location is sketchy but it's pioneer square so... it's small inside. During the week it's not bad but the weekends it gets packed. Had the bhan mi drip, the spam and egg and two limeades. Ordering was easy and food came out fast. So it's not your traditional bhan mi but they are both delicious. The bread is soft and fresh and the broth they use is so flavorful. The spam and egg has a mayo on it and it's good. The drip is more chopped meat. Which reminds me kind of a chopped dip with Asian flavors. But worth it! Definitely a must try.

Every visit I've been here has been great, and a friend of mine has even called here just to tell them that their food is fantastic! If that doesn't get you to come here then I'm not sure what will. Perhaps maybe the parking situation, which is rough and a little sketchy. I used street parking just four or so blocks away from here. Looking past that, the inside doesn't have much seating: just two big tables, a large bar with many chairs and another table near the entrance. I'd come early just to snag a spot to sit at. There's also a life-size figure of Taylor Swift wearing an ao dai inside as well. You put your order on one of two kiosks near the kitchen where everything is prepared, and then you sit yourself down wherever you want after that. Servers will call out the name you entered at the time of purchase and bring your food and drinks to you; you can even ask them to get you a cup of water too. Otherwise, everything else is hands off from the napkins to straws and even some utensils. Servers had no trouble getting food to me and my friend and were also very friendly too. I got their banh mi drip, which is what they're most known for. I got this for dine-in but I like how they provide my food in a box in case I change my mind and want to take out instead. I also got a regular Thai tea as my drink. Man was this one of the best things I've had in a while! The brisket is soft, tender and packed with flavor. The mayo and pate add to the tenderness of the sandwich while still being crispy just like how I like my baguettes. And I almost drank by itself the provided bone marrow soup that's supposed to be for dipping. I also like how they put their drinks (like the Thai tea) in a recyclable plastic can, it looks so ergonomically pleasing! From previous visits, I also recommend their Piggylicious banh mi, fried chicken wings and their Viet coffee with durian. I'm down to come here again, tell my family and friends about here, recommend this place to anyone who hasn't been here yet, and then come here once more pretty much!

Came here for a yelp elite event and omygod?? AMAZING Now don't get me wrong the Banh Mi drip is $17 and is a little steep for a banh mi but this was absolutely worth it. Brisket was so tender and the bread was perfectly toasted. It paired so well with the bone marrow broth. Will definitely be coming back to try other dishes!

I ordered the Banh Mi Drip, which was identified on the menu as the most popular item, and it's worth a try! The bread is well-toasted and filled with saucy brisket and grilled onions. I've never had a banh mi you dip, but the bone marrow soup was a unique way to pack on the flavor. The sandwich was tasty and a good portion, but I wish there were more pickled vegetables to brighten up the flavor which was a too salty and heavy for me. Located on the edge of Pioneer Square, the restaurant has a hip interior and is currently decorated for Lunar New Year. Service was very friendly and there is seating and bathrooms inside.
