On Monday, April 8, the Ma Family opened their newest Miss Saigon location on the ground floor of the TEP Building at 88 E. Broadway Blvd. — moving out of the former spot at 47 N. Sixth Ave.
The new spot has the same Vietnamese cuisine you’ve grown to love for more than 20 years now. Additionally, they’re serving an updated drink menu behind the bar, new menu items, and spacious, comfortable dining areas both inside and on the patio.
“It has taken a lot of blood, sweat, and tears over the years,” said Bao Ma, co-owner of Miss Saigon. “But with our commitment to community, family unity, and our treasured partnered friendships, the Ma Family has again been blessed with yet another opportunity at our new location at 88 E. Broadway in the heart of the downtown revitalization corridor.”
The History of Miss Saigon
In 1984, Vo Ma and Kim Nguyen immigrated to Tucson from Vietnam, seeking a new life of freedom and opportunity for their family. Upon their retirement in 2019, operations of the family enterprise have since been overseen by the three sons Hien, Vinh, and Bao Ma. The Ma family’s entrepreneurial journey began in 1989 with the Food Spot Market in South Tucson.
In 2000, the first Miss Saigon was opened near the University of Arizona at 1075 N. Campbell Ave. In 2006, the brand expanded to Miss Saigon Bar and Grill, located in Northwest Tucson to great success. Today it serves as a commissary.
In 2012, Miss Saigon Downtown was established in the space that was previously Monkey Burger. Miss Saigon had an opportunity to expand into central Tucson in 2016 — their fourth location at 250 S. Craycroft Rd. It has since been a busy destination for central Tucson and Davis Monthan communities.
The new location is open 11 a.m. – 9 p.m. on Monday – Thursday, 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. on Friday – Saturday, and noon – 9 p.m. on Sunday.
The newest Miss Saigon is located at 88 E. Broadway Blvd. For more information about the menu and other locations, visit misssaigontucson.com or call (520) 884-4778.
