Saigon Cafe

I eat here very often and have never gotten sick. The owner Steve is a very nice guy, and the staff is very knowledgeable about gluten and cross contamination. I love this place and it's one of my go-to's as someone who lives in the area. Just make sure to tell them you want the items GF, as the menu markings just mean the option is available.

I called to place an order. The staff advised against eating there if you have Celiac Disease. I asked to speak to a Manager or Chef so I can ask about their process and decide for myself. The staff member came on the phone and said the Manager said no it was not safe. I could hear the Manager in the background yelling out that they have flour in the kitchen. My issue is that the Manager NEVER came on the phone. Just could NOT be bothered. Terrible service!

Delicious Vietnamese food with lots of gluten free options. The Bahn Hoi is my go to here. While items are marked as GF on the menu, you have to specify you need it to be made GF when you order, otherwise it will come with gluten. They should prob update the menu to say "GF Option".

Amazing vietnamese food that you can now enjoy in a gluten free option. I'm not celiac, but have a strong intolerance to gluten and never had a problem after eating here.

Highly recommend this Vietnamese restaurant if you're in Jersey City. The menu is marked gluten free and all the soups and almost all the entrees are gluten free.
