Between 4 of us we had two large bowls of pho, carmelised pork belly, lemongrass beef, and fried eggplant. Everything is high quality and affordable. The coconut juice is awesome, as was the pork belly, lemongrass beef, and fried eggplant...each dish was exploding with flavour with no misses here and plentiful portions as well. Don't order a large bowl of pho unless you have a big appetite...made that mistake because we were used to large sizes not being so large here in Australia, but DAYAM this bowl is LARGE. You could share a large bowl with 2 people if you both aren't exceptionally hungry and not order anything else. We had plenty of leftovers because we misjudged the portion sizes. Definitely plan on coming here again.

Fragrant, lightly oiled, stuffed with fresh bean shoots, sharp winter mint, delicate vermicelli and beef shaved as thin and rare as Lara Flynn Boyle (as an aside, have you seen her face lately? What happened there? On the plus side, she won't need to buy a mask next Halloween). Get the intestines if you have the stomach for it.

We came here on a Saturday night around 6pm and there were heaps of empty tables but we saw a lot of people ordering take outs. Beef pho was pretty good , but I was pretty thirsty after dinner , so i suspect that there might be msg in the broth. I also tried the grilled lemongrass chicken with rice and it was pretty decent...not memorable but it was a relatively good dish.

Despite making a reservation online through their website, my name was not on the list. Thankfully,…read morethe restaurant was pretty empty (7.30pm on a Friday...hmmm), they seated 7 of us at a big table in a corner. FOOD -- One can choose either the buffet ($25pp) or the ala carte menu. Note that the buffet does not include the soup base (ranging from $12-$16) or sauces (about $1.20 per type of sauce). We (bunch of finance geeks) spent over 15 mins debating if it was cheaper to do the buffet. In the end we chose not to. It turned out to be a good decision, cause the meal cost each of us around $21pp (excluding softdrinks). We ordered about 20-22 plates of veggies/meat. The food was pretty good, everything was quite fresh. My favourites are probably the spam & beef rolls. Who knew spam tasted so good when boiled in spicy broth ? :) SERVICE -- A.R.G.H. This is the only reason why Im giving this restaurant a 3 star instead of a 4. Ordering through the iPad is a stupid idea because you can only see 2-3 items per "page", so it was time consuming to "go-through" the menu. (especially when i am HUNGRY, A.R.G.H) Getting the attention of a waitress/waiter was the worst. Maybe because we were sitting in a corner but it was almost impossible to catch their attention. We gave up and took turns to walk over to the cashier counter each time we needed something from them. A.R.G.H They should consider doing what some korean restaurants do - putting an alert/bell system on each table. Lastly, I heard from my guy friends that the male bathroom was NASTY ! (boo!!)

The unique thing about this place is that they gave protective sleeves for your jackets because hotpot smells tend to stay with clothing for some time. Average spend is around $30 for the all you can eat menu (and also unlimited softdrink, but don't fill up on soft drink) which is very fair when there are other places which charge about $35 (without the drink thing).

I've also never tried these clear and chewy noodles before. If you're a texture person, you would enjoy these noodles! The chicken was very juicy and crispy on the outside.

The restaurant could get busy during rush hour, however the wait wasn't too bad as there were many tables available! This spot is located on busy streets of Cabramatta. Glad I got to check it out!

The best part of our meal was the bottled beer. The Mongolian beef was not cooked well, it was just soft and soggy in its sauce, which was overly sweet. It came out on a fajita platter sizzling, so truly impressive that it turned out as mushy as it did. There was a lot of potential for that dish to taste better. The stir fried noodles tasted like they had been cooked well at one point, but then frozen, reheated, and rinsed with water to remove any potential flavor that once existed. Despite the restaurant being mostly empty when we arrived, we were seated right in between two other occupied tables, which made it feel like we were all at one big dinner together instead of on our own separate date nights. The people working were very nice - just wish the food was better! This meal was one of our first meals in Sydney and made us really worried that all of our meals here would be overpriced and tasteless - thankfully, there are better options out there.

We dined in the upstairs portion of the restaurant ( which is tucked in a multi use building ). Service was friendly and attentive. Food was absolutely delicious. Fresh seafood. Fresh veggies. Portions were decent sized. They do have some pricing quirks to be aware of: There is a minimum spend per person and I believe it varies with party size. They charge a 10% surcharge on Sundays. Not sure if this standard in other restaurants but I doubt it. I'm mentioning it so diners on Sunday are aware. I liked the food enough that I just chalked it up to a vacation u expected expense.
