Absolutely stunning food. We got the chicken summer rolls and beef in wild betel leaf to start, and both were delicious and perfectly portioned. For mains I got the beef spicy vermicelli which was so flavourful and warming, and my partner got the Chicken Com Suon Nuong, which he says is one of the best meals he's ever had! The atmosphere was lovely, and portion sizes were perfect, I would wholeheartedly recommend

I had summer rolls, prawn ginger onion stew and ashai beer. We also ordered a pork dish with the v noodles and both were lushly devine. The service was super and very friendly. I am really glad I booked before the rugby game as many people who walked in were politely turned away. Well worth a visit :)

I finally made it to this Vietnamese restaurant with my friends after wanting to go for a while—and it was absolutely worth it! We all love Vietnamese food, and as expected, everything was delicious. The flavors were fresh and authentic, making us excited to come back and try even more dishes. The service was lovely—warm, and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. If you’re a fan of Vietnamese cuisine, this place is definitely a must-try!

The food is so good! The beef rolls are very juicy. And the rice noodle soup with raw beef is also amazing!

Had Vietnamese food for the first time in my life. Tried spicy raw beef soup, it was delicious. Didn’t taste/smell raw at all. Spice level was tolerable. Staff was very friendly and helped me with the order
