Saigon Corner

This Vietnamese restaurant is inside a shopping mall but it’s a great choice if you’re looking for a healthier option downtown Scranton, or just don’t want cheese all over your food. I had the rice noodles bowl with the chicken option, and they made it gluten free. I also asked for a side of vegetables- it was a standard steamed broccoli and carrots. The noodles were fresh, good and tasty and came with a delicious gluten free spring roll, but the chicken pieces, though a good amount, were dryish (think they used breast instead of thigh or didn’t marinate) and I didn’t eat all of them, so I took off a star. The server was very nice and service was rapid. I would eat here again.

I am always in the hunt to expand my culinary experiences. I never had Vietnamese cuisine. Today, I chose Saigon Corner in Scranton, PA. It was a rainy day and I was craving soup. I had the beef short rib pho. It hit the spot! It was absolutely a delicious meal. The broth was rich in flavor! I also noticed that the menu had an expansive variety of gluten free choices. This is definitely a go to place for soup and food filled with flavor. I will be back again!
