Palmetto Estates has its share of comfort food, but when locals crave steaming bowls of broth and herb-packed freshness, Miss Saigon is the name they trust.
Famous for transforming simple Vietnames flavors and staples into a hype-worthy feast, Miss Saigon offers an extensive selection of pho (the star!)—a deep aromatic broth poured over rice noodles, topped with thin-sliced beef or chicken, bean sprouts, basil, and lime, along with light bites and appetizers like summer rolls (gỏi cuốn) with shrimp and pork, bún bowls (vermicelli noodles with crisp vegetables, grilled proteins, and a tangy fish sauce drizzle) for texture and contrast, and different bánh mì sandwiches, stir-fried noodles, and rice dishes, for some heartier comfort at the table.
Guess what? We're only scratching at the surface!
Indeed, the best bowls are waiting right in your own backyard, thanks to Miss Saigon!

Celebrate Cuban comfort with the crunch of freshly fried croquettas, the sizzling press of a hot grill, and steam rising from cafecito at Dos Ruedas Restaurant, a hidden gem for authentic Cuban cuisine in the heart of Palmetto Estates.
Bearing a name that means "two wheels" in Spanish, Dos Ruedas stands as a place where the wheels of tradition and flavor come together to create an unforgettable dining experience.
Here, you'll find delectable offerings, such as classics like Milanesa de Res and Milanesa de Pollo, Cuban sandwiches made with roast pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, mustard, and golden pressed bread, and seafood delights like Pescado Enchilado and Bacalao a la Vizcaína that bring the coastal flavors of Cuba to the table.
Dropping by for breakfast? Pair your morning cafecito or colada with croquetas or buttered toast, or dive into batidos (fruit shakes) for a sweet start.
Later in the day, you can savor heartier dishes like oxtail stew, arroz con calamares, and empanadas, all in generous portions and wallet-friendly prices.
Dos Ruedas is homestyle comfort, only better, because someone else does the dishes.
