We were warmly greeted upon entering and shown a table right away. We were lucky we walked in when we did because the restaurant quickly filled up! Our server was very attentive. He gave us his stamp of approval when we ordered the "Steamed Sliced Fish Fillet with Preserved Green Chili & Red Chili" dish, saying it is a very authentic Chinese way to prepare fish. It was very flavorful and spicy -- my husband said, "it was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten." He never compliments food like this! The serving was very generous - we could have split only this dish! But we also had Seafood Fried Rice and Vegetable Gyozas so we were absolutely stuffed!

A wonderful experience and some really amazing food!

While I have had pho from Saigon to Hanoi, and am a therefore a little hard to please, I'm more comparing this to other asian food I've had in the UK and US. Even by those standards it is pretty weak. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue - a fabulously rich and spicy beef soup from Hue in central Vietnam. The noodles were tough and bland, and the soup, while well spiced, seemed to lack the depth of flavor that I've come to expect from Pho. Would maybe go again to try the bahn mi or other options.

Summary: A chic and well designed "pho" place that offers mixed feelings…read more If you want traditional Vietnamese Pho, this isn't the place for you. The flavor is drastically off and the ingredients used to make their pho are totally different. However, IF you are into a fusion form of Pho, take a chance and try this place out. I, clearly, wasn't a fan of the pho here. The noodles had this weird earthy taste while the broth lacked the flavor of beef. The broth was on the sweet side and clearly made to suit western tastes. Coming from Los Angeles, I was really surprised how the dish I had was called pho. However, the ONE thing I did like about the pho was that the beef they used was high quality and tasted amazing. The beef was juicy and tender, as if it would melt in your mouth! Service is dodgy. The servers here offer you service based on what you look like and how you dress. When my friend tried to order her dish while I was in the restroom, the waiter apparently told her "Not now I'm busy". However, when I called him over after returning from the restroom, it seemed as if the gold chain on my neck turned me into a "vip" client. He quickly took my order and apologized to my friend for his error. My personal experience with the service is good, but others might have it differently. On a side note, it seems like my friends really like their stir fried rice noodles. I have yet to try that--but from what I heard they are DELICIOUS.

The vibes were amazing and I was loving the tunes that they were playing. I realised as the night went on that it got busier and turned into a cocktail bar and small nightclub! For starters I think I had fried chicken satay dumplings with satay sauce, this was a taste sensation. I was in love with these but only got a couple of them and they were sadly, so small! Then for main course I got pad thai (which I love) with grilled chicken and roasted peanuts, sadly I thought that there would've been some sauce but there wasn't, and the noodles didn't taste that great either. Also the chicken was cold and I only got two chunks. Now at this point I wasn't that impressed but luckily they saved the pad thai mistake with some yummy Thai Fries which tasted amazing (I couldn't stop eating them) and my dessert which was peanut butter ice cream (I'm obsessed with Peanut Butter!), sticky banana bread and some banana sprinkled with coconut. It was delicious and wasn't too small, but I could eat a good, hearty portion anytime.

Being part of the quarter mile I expected this place to be a massive rip off, but our group of 9 all had 2 courses and drinks and it came to £24 including service. Quality wise I felt things were a bit mixed. I was pretty underwhelmed by my main (which I've forgotten the name of but it was the first chicken dish on the menu.) serving it in a banana leaf was a nice touch but actually I found it inconvenient. My friends dishes were all pretty damn tasty though, I think I just wasn't a lucky one. This place doesn't quite smash it, but the staff were attentive and lovely, and we're happy to cater for our large group.

I came here on a few occasions as I was staying next door and thought the food was just "ok"…read more I'm deducting a few stars for a few reasons. The main reason is that much of the menu is served with fish (either as an accompaniment or mixed in) and as I have an allergy to seafood, I couldn't get much of the food (for example, any of the curries). I asked if it could be made without the seafood ingredient and was told that it was already mixed into the sauce. I get that things are fresh, but how can you not take into account those with allergies? And if made fresh, why can't you leave it out? I believe I got the wrong sauce with the Roti Canai that was ordered as I've never had that type of sauce served with it before - was a tangy red sauce of some kind which did not go well with the bread, which was very greasy. The onion and ginger chicken lacked flavor. Overall, it was ok, but nothing compared to what other reviewers have said. Maybe it's an off night in the kitchen.
