We had such an amazing time, our server was AMAZING, she was very attentive and efficient. The drinks were great. However the food needs some improvement, lacks some seasoning and also I found a small bug in my food but thankfully the were nice enough to remake me another dish. Overall I would rate my experience a solid 8/10

Really loved the day. We did Karaoke and then had dinner. The songs they have for Karaoke are epic, the room is just quite small, and while it's designated for 10people, the 8 of us made it feel packed. Dinner was amazing and drinks were lovely. If you can sit upstairs, outside for dinner, do!

I had booked for dinner at 17h45 (having been told that the rest of the evening was fully booked by Kyla/ Myla), with karaoke form 18h45 to 20h45. I reconfirmed the booking a week before.
When we arrived on Friday, we were told there was no karaoke booking and only a dinner booking for 18h45.
I managed to speak to Corin and she confirmed karaoke from 20h30 for 2 hours.
Friends who were part of our party told us that they have also experienced the same in the past - made a booking for dinner and karaoke only to arrive and find that the karaoke had not been booked so they could only have dinner.
The manager on duty was of absolutely no help. He hides from guests when there is a potential problem, says he will revert with feedback and never returns. The service was smooth only because the staff know their jobs well but he contributed nothing positive or useful to our experience.

Love Saigon Suzy! Went for my birthday lunch. Friendly and Efficient service. Gorgeous decor. Food: sweet chilli chicken potstickers and prawn moneybags were great. Bao were only ok. One gripe: main course dish arrived before some of the starters. Your service timing needs some work. Everything else: marvellous!

I loved Saigon Suzy and I always do. I was just disappointed with the state of the karaoke room. Speakers arnt working properly and It takes away from the experience. This should be maintained. The Staff are very friendly and helpful. I loved that the waitress knew exactly who ordered what as it was a big table, my only other problem is our waitress told us we did not tip her enough when we gave her more than a normal tip but she didn't count yet, this is upsetting as you should never say that to a customer. She did Apologize as we left once we informed her it's rude to say that. Other than that we loved the service and experience

After rushing to Saigon for our 10.15 slot, we arrived a few minutes late and were told that we needed to wait for our room. The reason for the delay and how long we needed to wait was not communicated to us properly at all. We eventually got our room after others left 45 minutes after our booking time!! It was a bachelorette and we left the previous venue without finishing everything we wanted to do there in order to make our booking, why did no one call to tell us about the delay?! We would have come later instead of waiting around for 45 minutes.

I love the venue and the karaoke.
We were in the booth for an hour and it loo about 20 min to get drinks which was horrible. There were issues with our seating after the booth but the manager did her best to help us.
Again we waited very long for service to get drinks and order food.
Other than the poor wait staff it was a pleasant experience

We went for the Kareoke experience. The room could have been maintained a lot better. There only one mic available. The manager did eventually compensate somewhat by giving us extra time. This was after I had to persuade him a bit. The waitress wasn’t very experienced with drinks orders and made quite a few mistakes. The bar also wasn’t stocked with some basic items. For w premium
Price of R1000 for a Kareoke room, I feel the experience could have been a lot better.

First time at Saigon Suzy. It was a lovely experience. Food was great and good value for money. Service could have been improved. Waiter didn't check on us often and food was served to guest as different times. Due to curfew, last round for drinks was called at 8pm but we couldn't find our waiter and when we tried to get a drink it was then too late. Staff should monitor the time and remind patrons of last round before the fact and not after.

I booked a table a week in advance and when we arrived they did not have a table for us and the waitress tried to palm us off onto a table in the empty bar area upstairs. We had to call the manager to get this sorted out. The waitress' attitude was shocking and rude but the manager was apologetic, sorted out a table for us in the main restaurant and offered us complimentary tapas. It did put a damper on our special evening with our overseas guest and will think twice about coming again with guests.

Loved the food, atmosphere and general presentation.
Our waitron on the evening was Fatima but she was either new or she had too many tables. She was friendly and has a lovely demeanor, but her service was really slow and that detracted from our experience. For example: when we ordered dessert one of my guests also ordered coffee. We had to remind her about the coffee and when it eventually arrived it was on the cold side of luke-warm.
