    If you’re craving some pho in the area, this is probably one of the better options. However, coming from someone who has had a lot of pho from the US, this pales in comparison. The broth flavor isn’t quite there, there wasn’t a great amount of meat, and hoisin sauce and sriracha weren’t provided either. The veggie dish was particularly lacking, as it was overly salty and it tasted like frozen veggies tossed together. The sweet potato fries were good though, and the waiter is really nice. I’d recommend if you’re really craving some Vietnamese food but don’t expect legit top-notch pho.

    Sexy waiter, again I couldn't resist a marriage request, I did it like a Chad, but Thomas was back just on time. Very good food. Definitely Chad Approved. But there were loud American people that were very loud. Thomas complained to the manager because he is sexy.

    A small fly appeared in today's soup. I told staff but he replaced it with a new one and didn't apologize. Disappointed in terms of hygiene, but if they say any sorry for a small fly, I would have gone by without leaving a review

    Great food and Friendly waitress. The food was quite fast but fresh and with great taste. It was quite a lot for the price. The waitress was really friendly, helpful and understanding, also gave us some suggestions for food.

    Really tasty and affordable lunch menu (starter, main dish, and dessert) for less than 10 Euros! Friendly and attentive staff, cozy atmosphere, fresh ingredients, family-run place... also, they don‘t charge for a glass of water!! Make sure to call ahead if you go for dinner, as it‘s always busy! Easily my favourite Asian restaurant in Vienna!

    Good Vietnamese food with good portions and accessible prices. The place has a good size and doesn't seem to get that busy, even in a Friday night, so you probably could get a table even without a booking. The spring rolls were very nice but the summer rolls were quite bland so I wouldn't recommend it. The soup was good and the curry very light and tasty. The house white wine was good and cheapish. Good option for a light dinner.

    The restaurant looks nice but the food just was not good. I had the bun cha Hanoi. The pork was chewy, the fish sauce weak and thin, the ground pork bits dry.

    Just had a meal here food was exceptionally fresh and tasty. Staff really pleasant. Sat outside the road a bit busy but that was the only negative comment. Will definitely be back.

  • 4/5 Sebastiano L. 2 years ago on Google
    Little restaurant with essential furniture, almost in “minimal” style. Quite ok for me, it looked clean. But the total absence of music in the background made the atmosphere a bit dull. However, the food was quite good. I can’t remember much names and details of the plates, however we went for rolls as starters, then soup and one meat based dish. All quite satisfying. I spotted some other customer that looked to be Vietnamese, circumstance that made me think the cuisine is authentic!

    Truly shocking Vietnamese food. I'm not the best Vietnamese cook but I've made an infinitely better pho in my sleep, completely lacking in depth of flavour, the pho chay tasted like a stock cube with boiled veg inside and only 4 pieces of tofu. This was also served with a desert spoon as well making it impossible to eat properly When we complained of this to the waitress, she instantly guessed we were complaining about the flavour and suggested it was cause they didn't add any 'additives'. Sure, don't need MSG for it to taste good. The rice and veg with lemongrass and chili was 95% bell pepper poorly fried which apparently is traditional (suuure), but more importantly, again, the sauce had no distinct flavour beyond a vague spiciness and zero lemongrass flavour to it. 2* cause the service was fine and we did eat it, it wasn't completely offensive but just very very bland. I sincerely doubt the people working here would eat it, I've had much better Vietnamese food in chains in England. If we weren't very hungry we would've left and refused to pay to be honest. Save your money and go elsewhere for proper Vietnamese, lest this put you off a wonderful world of food forever.

    What a lovely restaurant! Place looks great, minimalistic with floral design. Food was excelent, fresh, tastefull. Service was quick and really polite. Recommend also for vegans.

  • 3/5 ashwin c. 1 year ago on Google
    Even though the ingredients were really fresh, the Pho was a bit bland to our liking. The broth seemed a bit diluted and lacked flavour. We ordered the fried duck pho and chicken pho and both were flavourless. The spring rolls were nicer.

    Nice ambiance, lovely service, decent location and good prices, most dishes around 10 euros. However, I can't agree with everyone else saying the food is sensational, maybe they don't k ow Vietnamese food! The food is average at best, for a place with a lot of Vietnamese food (West Coast US, London or indeed many countries in Asia!) this would be a 4/10 at best. Pho wasn't original, noodle dishes were okay but struggle with a lack of original ingredients. It was alright for a quick cheap meal but I couldn't recommend it for the food. I hope it gets better!

  • 5/5 Poppy B. 4 years ago on Google
    I totally recommend it! Vegan Option but also dishes with fish and meat. Really yummy and the price is fair! Just one advice for the owner: the rice portion could be bigger. After the meal I was 'ok full ' but not 'full full' (if that makes sense^^) and I am a normal sized girl. I can imagine that my boyfriend for example would not have had enough. Just some more rice and maybe a couple of nuts in the side would make a huge difference ! The good thing though is that some rice and nuts do not cost a lot. ;-)

    Surprisingly poor quality and the tables outside are right on the road of a heavy traffic street. The two starts I give only out of sympathy and politeness.

    (Translated by Google) The staff is overwhelmed when serving the dishes. I've been waiting for the dish for over an hour. Afterwards I paid for the drink and then I left and hardly a word of apology. (Original) Das Personal ist überfordert beim Servieren der Gerichte. Ich habe über eine Stunde auf das Gericht gewartet. Habe anschließend das Getränk bezahlt und bin dann gegangen und dann kaum ein Wort der Entschuldigung.

    (Translated by Google) The food was brilliant, especially the spring rolls at the bun bo cha gio, which the restaurant itself does and tastes fantastic. Various requests for allergies (do not tolerate coriander) were also taken into account. Would love to come back :) (Original) Das Essen war genial, vor allem die Frühlingsrollen beim Bun bo cha gio, die das Lokal selber macht und fantastisch schmecken. Auf diverse Wunsche wegen Allergien (vertrage keinen Koriander) wurde auch Rücksicht genommen. Kommen sehr gerne wieder :)

    (Translated by Google) Rating for Pho: Pho was fine, unfortunately nothing special, 3 * We eat a lot of pho and tried this restaurant in one evening. It was a very busy restaurant. As a starter, we ordered the vegan spring rolls, which we found quite ok. For the main course I took the Pho with crispy duck - unfortunately it didn't suit my taste, because the duck meat was not so good (intense duck taste, lots of fat) and the crust was completely soft after a short time. Unfortunately, I found the Pho broth itself (based on beef) to be mediocre - it tasted rather lax and a little like a taste enhancer. Unfortunately, we did not find the Pho here as good as in other restaurants, so we cannot give a Pho recommendation (we cannot judge other dishes). Otherwise the staff was very nice and the atmosphere was very nicely decorated. There were rather small tables, for small groups you can put the tables together, but the restaurant (1 larger room) is a bit too small for many guests. (Original) Bewertung für Pho: Pho war in Ordnung, leider nichts besonderes, 3* Wir essen sehr viel Pho und haben dieses Restaurant an einem Abend ausprobiert. Es war ein sehr gut besuchtes Restaurant. Als Vorspeise haben wir die veganen Frühlingsrollen bestellt, die fanden wir ganz ok. Als Hauptspeise habe ich das Pho mit knuspriger Ente genommen - leider traf das nicht mein Geschmack, da das Entenfleisch nicht so gut war (intensiver Entengeschmack, viel Fett) und die Kruste nach kurzer Zeit komplett weich war. Die Pho-Brühe selbst (auf Rinderbasis) fand ich leider nur mittelmäßig - es schmeckte eher lasch und etwas nach Geschmacksverstärker. Wir fanden das Pho hier leider nicht so gut wie in anderen Restaurants, daher können wir keine Pho-Weiterempfehlung geben (andere Speisen können wir nicht beurteilen). Ansonsten war das Personal sehr nett und die Atmosphäre war sehr schön eingerichtet. Es gab eher kleine Tische, für Kleingruppen kann man die Tische zusammenlegen, aber das Restaurant (1 größerer Raum) ist etwas zu klein für viele Gäste.
