Nguyen Brothers is a warm and cozy restaurant in Marrickville which serves some delightful Vietnamese dishes. My girlfriend and I ordered the prawn and pork pancake, Vietnamese curry chicken and garlic fried rice during our visit last weekend. The crispy pancake was delicious and its constant wisps of aroma whet our appetite throughout the meal. Nonetheless, the pancake can be further improved with a stronger and more intense flavour. Similarly, the curry chicken was exceptional with its multiple layers of flavour and texture. However, the highlight of the meal was the ordinary-looking bowl of garlic rice. The garlic rice was sumptuous and palatable and I could not stop!!!

Spring rolls were really delicious and good size. For main, we ordered pho beef and lemon grass chicken. Pho came out with a good serving size and was delicious however the broth lacked substantial flavor so had to ask for extra chilli etc. to enrich the flavors. But nevertheless was not too bad. Lemon grass on the other hand was great and rich in flavor. We also ordered a green tea creme caramel for desert, and it was nice, however not sweet enough for my husband's taste. We will definitely try this place as overall the ambiance was nice, portion sizes were generous and taste of some of the food was great

Popped in for a quick Vietnamese meal after training. We got the summer rolls, which were so big, almost like burrito size :) with a nice hoisin dipping sauce. We also shared the vermicelli noodle bowl that came with spring rolls and the 'diced beef cubes with snow peas' that didn't have snow peas, rather capsicum. Cheap and fast service. Restaurant is a bit more upmarket interior than others on the strip. aroundtheclockfoodie.com

Best crispy chicken vermicelli salad around. Moist but crispy chicken with a fresh salad that is not dressed in an overly sweet or sticky dressing. Pho also top notch.
