"On a cold Sunday evening in April we found this was the only restaurant open. How happy we were that others were closed or we would have missed the opportunity to eat here. Excellent food, subtle flavours, friendly host and very good prices. We really enjoyed our meal. The Saigon soup was delicious, and I will look out for excellent Vietnamese nougat again."

Sadly, this very lavishly decorated, Vietnamese restaurant was a disappointment. I blithely assumed it would be as good as the Vietnamese restaurants in Paris, that I used to frequent as a student, given France's colonial history with Vietnam. OK, so it was cheap: 12€ for the 3-course set dinner. However, after a tolerable starter of nems and a chicken salad (with no bean sprouts, which one would expect... , our two main courses were appalling. The meat (pork in one dish, and beef in the other was so tough, it was almost inedible, and the sauces tasted rater peculiar, so we left most of it, obviously to the surprise of the waitress. The desserts were acceptable: my banana fritters were quite...

The clearest of broths with fresh vegetables, noodles and a prawn or two. My dad had the chicken salad which had a nice sesame dressing, mum had the samosas and my husband had the crispy wonton. Delicious. We were all very happy with our mains too. The chicken curry tasted very much like a Chinese curry at home. I had the banana fritter for dessert, all crisp and...
I visited with my wife, children and parents. The hostess spoke really good english and took our orders. We were a group of 5 1 baby. There were 2 other couples in the restaurant, one had arrived before us and the other after. The food took more than 30 minutes to come to the table and when it did, my main was not part of it. The hostess brought some of our food out and then proceeded to bring the food to
