"One of the best Vietnamese restaurants with very affordable prices. I was truly amazed by the taste of the pho soup when I first came. It was sophisticated with different herbal aromas but humbly, not too strong, providing a harmonised aroma backdrop for the delightfully sweet and savoury soup. I have been thinking about replicating that soup after I went back home. I came back again today to retry the pho. However, this time, the taste of the soup is rather plain, and the turmeric is a bit too strong that stands out. It got me thinking the cooking is to some degree inconsistent, and that's a shame. However, even for a normal Vietnamese restaurant, factoring in the low price tag and large and generous portions, the value itself still earns it a 5. The caramelised pork is also one of the best I have had in London so far."

"I had a lovely meal here we weren't sure where to eat and we chose this on a whim and was really happy with our selection The food was really nice, I had the mixed meat noodles, with lemon chicken and Szechuan chicken everything was perfectly cooked, the lemon chicken in particular was fantastic The drinks were really cheap too which is always a pleasant surprise. Service was warm and friendly. We will be back! It is cash only there is a sign but we missed it, there is a cashpoint to the left out of the door a minute down the road by the bustop so no drama"

"The interior is old school and outdated but the food is more than good enough to keep us coming back. They specialise in Vietnamese food and also do typical Chinese takeaway food too - both tasty. We always order the crispy Vietnamese spring rolls which are so moreish and lots of steamed rice rolls filled with pork which are like Vietnamese cheung fun. Food is always good whether you eat in or takeaway (they don’t deliver), and whilst we don’t live down the road, we are more than happy to drive to pickup this yummy food."

"The food is always consistently delicious. The staff are lovely and the prices are very reasonable. I love the chicken pho, the meat spring rolls especially."

"I came here in hopes to enjoy a meal with my family eating food of our own culture. I was heavily disappointed after ordering 5 large bowls of pho to find that the broth was unflavoured and the pho noodles were hard and uncooked. Furthermore, communication with the staff members was very poor leading to confusion over dishes that were served around the table. Overall I am so disappointed and unhappy with the service and quality of the food. I most definitely would not recommend this place."
