Walked in and immediately was stunned by the exquisite atmosphere. I ended up ordering the Milk Bubble Tea and was by far some of the best I've had. Highly recommend!!!

Found this restaurant by chance today and I’m so glad that I did. I had the bahn mi and summer roles. Both were amazing. Lovely staff and fresh healthy food.

Ate here with my wife and three young kids. The food is delicious, the Beef Pho Bo and the Curry are world class and the Spring Roles are easily the best I've ever tasted . Writing about them in this review is making me crave them again! The portion sizes are huge. The service was exceptional with my boy commenting on the "great butler service" from our host. We all look forward to our next visit.

Amazing food, service and atmosphere! We had a fabulous time celebrating Tet on Saturday 10th Feb. The seafood special menu was absolutely delicious, my favourites were the king prawns in tamarind sauce and lobster- both were full of flavour and taste!

Visited for a weekend lunch. Staff were welcoming and friendly. The food is excellent. The pho xich lo has a clean, light broth that remains fragrant and is packed full of flavour- very refreshing. The banh mi xich lo comes loaded with savoury meats and vegetables wrapped in a soft and chewy baguette. We also had a cold coffee which was delicious. You can get stamp cards for both the coffee and meals. There are vegan friendly options if you require. We are glad to have found an authentic tasting Vietnamese restaurant locally. Will definetly return to try the other items on a menu. Would recommend.

The food is always very nice,pork and prawn summer rolls for starter and crispy pork noodles for main course is perfect lunch..jasmine tea or bubble tea the perfect drink depending on the weather I've been eating here for about 6 years now and I would say the food is even better. Its always been good but it seems to taste better..keep up the good work and happy to see the friendly waitress doing a good job serving and cleaning.. Had lovely Vietnamese dripping coffee,spring rolls and pho noodles soup with beef. All the food absolutely delicious . 18-12-2024..and very polite waiter..5 as usual.

Visited here yesterday for lunch and was very pleased with the service I received. It wasn’t too busy, which was nice. The woman who greeter us was very friendly. I ordered the noodle soup with beef which was delicious. The meat was perfectly cooked and soup full of flavour. My brother ordered the vegetable curry which he said was fantastic. We both had the drip coffee which we both enjoyed (so much so that my brother bought the kit they have for sale) I’ll definitely return and would recommend to friends also.
