Ordered Green Papaya Salad, Cassava Fries and Saigon Beef Stew Noodles. Everything was really fantastic. Its reasonably priced, substantial portion and bold flavours.

Noodles weren't overcooked and sat well in the lovely light savory broth.<br/ <br/ Service was great....

Friendly staff and good quality ingredients. The favour is was tasty and well portioned. The highlight is the quality of the meat used and the amount given.

Will definitely revisit.

Best deep fried rolls I've ever had.  The pho is really good, too. Polite and quick workers with a nice looking establishment. My go-to Vietnamese restaurant.
