The side herbs given is a joke!! I small branch each person!! Am on to my second litre of water!! One year ago... this place seems to be getting a cult following. Pho is decent here and the table turnover is high so don't be put off by the crowd of people waiting out front. It only seats ~25 I'd say. Tiny space. So expect to be sharing tables during lunch rush. Broth tastes great. They pride themselves on supposed "no msg"??? Hard to believe but yeah I guess I wasn't thirsty afterwards. Soup is piping hot and full of flavour. Not high in aniseed. There's nothing I don't like here except for a lot of elbows touching.

A tiny place, not the best for a big group, but they definitely serve up a good bowl of pho!…read more Service is quick and people are in and out fast so the wait went pretty quickly (5-10 min), I came with a group of about 12 and we ended up getting split into about 3 tables. The menu on the walls is not in English, but I got a "small" bowl of the beef brisket pho. The amall bowl is actually pretty filling, I can't imagine what the large is like. Tender beef and plenty of rice noodles swimming in a bowl of the best pho broth I have ever had. Very savory, flavorful, and tasty, I can see how people eat this stuff so quickly. It's served with basil and bean sprouts and can be flavored further with chili sauce or chili oil or one of the other condiments they have on the table. They also serve it with a thermos of hot tea which was good for washing it down. By the time we finished eating there was a larger crowd waiting by the door, staring at us while we ate... You may be asked to share a table as it gets packed. Definitely a great place to stop by for a quick and delicious bowl of pho!

Great BBQ. Fast and tasty. Good take away and comes with extras: soup, hot chili sauce, etc…read more... Highly recommended especially since I come from California and we have good Chinese BBQ there as well.

I could smell it as it was brought to me by the waitress. Hmmmm now that I've tried it I think will stick to the more mainstream ... first few mouthfuls were great then u realise the stinkiness!! :))) similar to the Hong Kong stinky tofu... their bun bo hue is pretty good too. Tried a bit of it.. it's good but my preference is still superbowl..

We tried the Bun Bo Hue which was a spicy beef broth with thick vermicelli noodles and a combination of sliced beef and pork hock. The soup had a spicy tang as advertised but was a little on the salty side for our liking but when combined with the vegetable garnish the mixture compliments one another. There was a generous supply of sliced beef and pork hock which ensured the dish was not only tasty but filling. The food achieves a high 3.5 rating in our books and if it was just food that you were after, this place would be a 5. Sadly, the brillance stops here. It actually took us 10 minutes to get a table as the staff were busy doing other things, serving customers, taking orders, chit chatting to each other. It was only when we asked if a booking was required that we were acknowledged and told to "sit there!" by somebody whom we could only assume is the owner based on her rude treatment of customers. The table we were asked to sit at... still full of dirty dishes and leftover food. It was another 10 minutes before a waitress came and quickly cleared the table without wiping it down. At this point our patience was wearing thin but having heard good things about the place we patiently waited another 5 minutes before our order was taken. Considering the slow, rude and unprofessional customer service we were surprised at the speed the food came out. Overall, this destination rates well for food, a little more expensive than other similar styled vietnamese eateries but where the staff lost us was the customer service, or lack thereof, and the cleanliness of this destination. Food quality - 3.5/5 Atmosphere - 2/5 Service and Cleanliness - 1/5 Affordability - 2/5

Having just finished a bowl .. my immediate thoughts are that its good. Better than expected for a local area outside of the usual Viet burbias around Melbourne. It's not the best but still I'd come back to try other items. The place is clean, wait staff quick and efficient. COMIE ON!! Do u really go to an Asian joint expecting service? Tea was served as I sat, order taken within 3min.. food came out in less than 5. My order was correct as well. So for me yeah it was a gd experience. I took 10min or so all up to let the iPhone eat first then me. and I was out of there in 15min. Soup base I would prefer superbowls or even hoa tran. it was good still. They have a stronger spice flavour. This one is a bit too peperry for me. Besides that it was good.

This place either has very quiet times during the day or they really pride themselves on cleanliness. Either way, it was good too see. The staff we very friendly and more than willing to accommodate us. We had some chicken skewers, vegetarian rice paper rolls & like a vermicelli noodle with salad, chicken & spring rolls. The food was extremely fresh and tasty. I would definitely go back, however it's one of those local restaurants- would probably go there once a week if I was a local, but a pain to get there from our house.

In the 5 days I was in Melbourne, it was a necessity to drive all the way over here (from downtown or wherever we were) and get at least two of these bad boys.
