Reviews
"Lovely setting and atmosphere, food was delicious but very little meat in the dishes for the price."
"I really did enjoy the customer service and look of the restaurant, we had two of the smaller plates, duck and the soft shell crab and then two mains mussels and prawn salad and unfortunately the mussels were really overpriced about 7 mussels for $28 which is ridiculous pricing. I did enjoy it but would I come back probably not as there are more restaurants that give you more for your money and now days that counts for a lot"
"The civilised cousin of Saigon 60s nearby., this space has ambient music, lots of staff and is licensed in a well curated and decorated space. The menus - described as fusion - is a little bit of everything. Our table of 6 opted for a Duck Curry, Pork Belly, Bun Nem and some other specials. The food was good (although there were surprisingly few gluten free options for an Asian restaurant when discarding the salads on a cyclonic, stormy night), if not spectacular. Ice cream trio and creme brûlée were judged to be good. Beer on tap and wine available by the glass. Very pleasant, and dry, surroundings on an otherwise unpleasant evening. Worth revisiting"
"I have to say that this was excellent food. As well as the really nice fresh flavours the atmosphere and decor are top notch also. Great for a group of friends or if you want to impress on a date. I had the soft shell crab and the prawn and green papaya salad. I would recommend."
"Ambience and vibe was really good. Pricey as compared to their sister resto Saigon 60s.approx 20-30 nzd/food item. Better to share with family and friends. We loved the calamari and soft shell crabs. Pork belly was too flavorful for us that we needed plain rice with it. Same with the soy chicken wings, better with plain rice. Add avocado smoothie in your menu please! Salmon was perfectly cooked."
