Saigon '60s Rotorua is the original branch of a Vietnamese restaurant that began in the city in 2018. Its name looks back to the cosmopolitan character of 1960s Saigon, an influence the restaurant carries into a menu that balances familiar regional cooking with a small number of fusion-minded touches. The Fenton Street dining room remains the brand's Rotorua home, and the offer is broad enough for an everyday lunch as well as an evening meal. Service runs across the day, so a quick baguette and a longer spread of soup, rice and smaller dishes belong to the same relaxed format.

Pho is one of the kitchen's clearest reference points. Beef, chicken and pork versions build from rice noodles, broth, onion and fresh herbs, while roast duck pho adds bok choy and slices of duck to a beef-bone soup. Diners wanting more heat can move to the spicy lemongrass noodle soup, where vermicelli and cabbage take on the fragrance and warmth of lemongrass. These bowls do not all follow one formula: the meat, noodle and broth combinations change, giving the soup section enough range for both a straightforward classic and something more assertive.

The rest of the menu opens out beyond broth. Banh mi layers meat, pickled carrot and daikon, cucumber and coriander inside a toasted baguette, while vermicelli salads combine crisp vegetables, herbs, peanuts and fried onion with choices such as grilled pork, lemongrass chicken, seafood or tofu. Rice plates and stir-fries make the offer more substantial again. Among the chef's specials are slow-cooked lemongrass beef stew, sliced barbecue-pork egg noodles served with soup, duck breast in coconut gravy and a crisp Vietnamese pancake filled to order with meat, prawns or tofu.

Those choices make Saigon '60s particularly accommodating for mixed groups. Tofu and vegetable combinations recur through the noodle, salad and stir-fry sections, while a dedicated children's range scales down several approachable dishes. Small bites and rice plates can be combined for a shared meal, or each diner can stay with a single bowl. Drinks remain connected to the restaurant's Vietnamese identity: traditional drip coffee appears alongside a richer hot egg coffee made with yolk, condensed milk, chocolate and honey, providing a distinctive finish after the sharper herbs, pickles and lemongrass of the savoury menu.
