Pho

Perfect and original Viet flavor, their pho is extraordinary and will definitely be back again!

I have a request, would the owner please change the type of restaurant to "Asian fusion" instead of "Vietnamese", please?

This is not authentic. Not. At. All. It's very very British, down to the roasted beef in the pho, and everything was just... well... pretentious.

where do I begin? I can't even decide. Everything was just wrong, on so many levels. They handed me a legit laddle- not the Asian spoon mind you, but a legitimate laddle. I don't even know what to say, am I supposed to eat with it? No. Just no.

I got Pho, it was absolutely terrible. Broth was fatty and bland AND dark. Beef was not right. Hoisin has to be asked to be brought to your table (whyyyyy? It's like going to a coffee shop and having to ask for milk. Why?). There was no Thai Basil served with the Pho. There was not enough bean sprout.

And what else, com tam (broken rice) doesn't come with the fish dipping sauce. Yes, I repeat. Com tan doesn't come with dipping sauce. So what the hell am I supposed to eat it with?

I can't even. I don't even know what to do. I will never return to this place and I regret spending money here.

The service was nice though. Hence 2/5 stars.

Yummy pho in a cute restaurant in east London!

Came here with a friend to have some pho and we were so happy with what we got. We ordered the same thing and it was so delicious. The broth was perfect, the meat tender and my egg yolk was runny. Everything I want when I have pho!

They have this amazing chili oil that you HAVE to try if you go here. That smell alone is enough to make your mouth water.

Don't be afraid to have leftovers! I took mine home cause I couldn't finish it and put it in a pot to warm it up. I cracked an egg in it and it was just as delicious as it was at the restaurant.

Juices are also great, fresh and not to be missed.

Disappointed! Pho is one of my favorite dishes and I usually come in with high expectations. Ordered the veggie spring rolls and the pho chay (vegetarian pho). The spring rolls were delicious. They were completely fried and filled with veggies and served with a peanut sauce. The spring rolls were delicious and the best part of the meal. I don't expect vegetarian pho to be as flavorful as a traditional pho broth, but this broth was extremely lackluster. There wasn't any depth and it was underwhelming to say the least. The noodles were thick rice noodles which are not ideal for pho. Furthermore there just wasn't much in the dish.

This place is very dirty, you walk in to the smell of body door and the floor looks like it hasn't been swept in days. The spring rolls tasted like what you would expect eating a foot to taste like.

The spicy pho was sweet with some spice of nutmeg or clove that was very strange. Maybe would work as a special flavour during Christmas.

Disappointing all around.

Ventured in today with a friend who works in the area. I had seen the menu before hand so kind of knew what I was getting. We arrived early to beat the rush, it's a small compact place. Best to get here early for a table especially during lunch rush hour.

Everything is described properly on the menu, as it was so cold today I opted for the Ph tôm with a veggie broth. Base broth of lemongrass, ginger, lime and different veggies with tiger prawns. A large bowl was placed in front of me with thick noodles and extra side of veggies for the noodle soup. I was impressed by the size, not so impressed on the bland broth. I added the garlic vinegar, extra lime, chilli oil and paste and sirarcha sauce to it. Then it was much better! The extra herbs of mint and coriander really helped to bring out the flavours.

As I couldn't finish it, they packed it up for me in a secure tub which was then tied inside a plastic bag to prevent spillage. They also kindly added extra prawns which are £1.75 extra and the veggies are an extra £1.00. Overall a nice place for Vietnamese food. It's more of a street food style menu, but nonetheless still tasty and value for money.

The staff are nice too!

Delicious and quick service! Both the fresh summerrolls and the bananablossom salad (?) were excellent.

I'd heard of Pho but not actually eaten here. On the basis of tonight's experience, I'd happily come again.

The restaurant is small and busy - it's on the crowded side rather than intimate - but the noise level was bearable and the service was very fast. I gather it is very busy after work, so dining a little later may help. Expect to wait for a bit at peak times.

We tried the hot and cold (summer) veggie rolls for starters, and then I had the tofu and mushroom bun noodles. The food was delicious - especially the noodles, and the ginger soy I was provided with made a stunning accompaniment. Interestingly, the beers (Saigon and Lao) were great companions for the food.

A nice feature was our very helpful waiter who pointed out which sauces I could have as a vegetarian (ie avoiding the fish sauce).

Pho could become a habit. Why?

Because it does so many things right:
Spare space and it's a fine place to dine alone or with a couple of pals
Roasted garlic in the pho a nice touch
Veggie spring rolls were creative and delicious
Roast chicken in pho ga was plentiful and of good quality

Something that could be worked on:
Broth, while not dish-watery, was still a bit single noted

Pho ga (chicken noodle soup) and cha gio chay (veggie spring rolls) are my main litmus test with Vietnamese food. Pho passes pho sho!

When living away from home, you miss your mama's food. So I craved a bowl of hot pho. When I arrived I changed my mind and ordered the Bun Rieu with tofu instead of pho and did not regret the decision. The broth was so rich in taste, it was the best bun rieu I've ever had besides of course my mom's. Prices are okay, service good! Next time I'll try the pho
