Lower Mekong is one of those restaurants everyone should avoid. Service is slow (and non-existent) whereas food is simply atrocious. I ordered their sugarcane shrimp and pho bo but decided to leave after waiting for 45 minutes for the pho. Look at the photographs, my dear friends. The sugarcane shrimp was uncooked and raw. It seems so common for restaurants in Sydney to serve this sort of food.
I brought my friend to the spice alley for lunch. We decided to try Mekong. The food was overall delicious. The papaya salad was fresh and tasty. The lemongrass beef curry was okay. My friend enjoyed it. But I am not too into beef curries, maybe that's why I didn't enjoy it as much. Overall, a good experience. Would definitely revisit.
After one of the best dinners this year at Upper Mekong, we just had to try Lower Mekong. It didn't disappointed. More classic Vietnamese dishes elevated like their Pho. The tomato rice with the most moist fried chicken ever was the standout. For the price point, definitely value for money.
I wanted pho. It is on a list with better choices that my doctor has given me for eating out. So we ended up here. It's a fairly nice part of Spice Alley, its own restaurant with dedicated seating and a liquor license. The pho was good quality and tasty.
