Wow, can't believe no one has written a review about this place…read more Look no further if you want Pho or Combination Rice. I've been searching far and wide for the best Pho and Combo Rice in Adelaide for over 15 years. I believe this is it. You're not going to get silver service here, but the quality of the food is going to be second to none. Their X-Large combination Pho is large enough for you to take a bath in..... Lots of side veggies to go with and plenty of meat, tendon and tripe. Sure, you can leave all those things out and get just beef, but it definitely ain't as tasty. Combination broken rice, what can I say, but they certainly have the best Pork Chops. Roast pork skin/crackling is always crispy. Seriously, look no further, just go there and try those dishes, and I'm sure you'll bump into me there either on a Saturday or Sunday.

We shared the eggs rolls and this crispy parcell roll - very tasty. I ordered the combination salad with prawn, chicken and barbeque pork - they did not skimp on the meat! I was stuffed!

This place was absolutely teaming with people when we arrived. The wait staff - though a little but…read moreflustered - attended to us immediately and advised there'd be a bit of a wait for a table (it was Boxing Day after all!) Once we were seated the sprightly service continued and we had some recommendations from the menu. There was a bit of a wait for the food but the wait staff were very attentive and kept us in the loop. We enjoyed watching some of the photo slide shows and reading some of the MANY reviews on the wall. I have travelled Vietnam and explored lots of the cuisine and was VERY impressed at the authentic tastes that the kitchen had to offer. With a great wine list to compliment the dishes, amazing service and absolutely delicious food, it's worth the trip (though perhaps book ahead). We'll be back for their party to celebrate Vietnamese New Year!

There are a few high stools if you choose to dine in. The staff weren't exceptionally friendly but not rude. Could do with a bit more of attentiveness. I requested for additional chilli sauce but was ignored/forgotten. Will return as the Bahn Mi is really good. Hopefully, the experience will be way better next time!

Excellent cold meat roll except that the fermented radish quality is not consistent over time…read more Sometimes the radish does not taste sour enough. But overall the roll is great with decent amount of ingredients with authentic taste. I used to buy meat rolls in a close by Nhu Lan shop, but I was so annoyed with the Nhu Lan sellers' attitude that I had to stop eating Coll meat roll for a while. Fortunately I have found this new one with better quality, the same price but much better customer service. So have my favourite disk/snack back to my menu!

Tonight we celebrated my Grandma's 94th birthday and my nephew's 21st birthday…read more The staff were attentive, friendly and efficient from beginning to end. I can honestly say that I have never had better service in any restaurant. They were at the table regularly, ensuring that all of us had all we wanted. The food was amazing, and served so quickly. There are lots delicious vegan and non-vegan dishes. And wow, amazing value. The entrees were bigger than we expected and very tasty. The mains plates were piled high with scrumptious food, too much to eat. So much that we all took home large containers of food. Every meal was cooked beautifully. I'm not a vegan, the meats were tender, the rice was soft but not soggy, the food arrived at the table nice and hot. I'm told that the vegan meals were just as lovely. I was delighted that meals were brought out fairly close together. Many restaurants fail to accomplish this, so some diners finish before others have even been served. Mai Kitchen managed to have us all eating at the same time. The restaurant is clean and nicely lit, not too bright, not too dark. The simple high-backed, wooden chairs look lovely with the wooden tables and floor. The feeling is simple elegance, and open space. Surprisingly for such a large space, and so many diners, it didn't feel noisy, or crowded. After the main meal the staff surprised us with two special deserts, one vegan, one not, each with a lit candle, and led us in the Happy Birthday song. Grandma and my nephew were both delighted. They also report that the deserts were especially yummy.

The menu is extensive with plenty of variety, but the standouts for us were the sweet and sour pork and san choy bow - both packed with flavour and beautifully done.

Yen Linh is famed locally for excellent Viet food, not limited only to pho and Viet sandwiches, and…read moreI confirm the rumours. Clearly fresh ingredients, excellent presentation, good value, fair prices, clean interior design, and swift service all round out the experience. As always, the food first: I've had pho everywhere with the high expectation of clear broth, true natural quality, no artificial anything to masque its natural flavor, super fresh sprouts and lime and mint (not basil) leaves on the side, freshly cut beef, al-dente noodles, and perfectly clean wares. Yen Linh met all traits. I especially appreciated the speed with which it comes out because the timely freshness from putting the beef into the hot just boiling broth is a key determinant in pho's goodness. Carry-out pho is a serious no-no unless all ingredients are separately packaged which is wastefully unenvironmental, so always have it in-house. Competitive Viet restaurants abound nearby but I found Yen Linh first upon recommend so I stay. Alcohol is available, an assortment of Western and Eastern beers. Interior design is sparse with simple tables and chairs, namely the thinner laminate kind, but no worries. Next time I'll report on the sandwiches and fried goods, another major realm of Viet cuisine in Adelaide to say nothing about the menu's many seafood dishes. Service is quick and attentive with the whole family of presumably one related to the owner chipping into make it all work quickly. While I went at non-peak hours intra-day, they act quickly enough to be confident in their handling evening rush. Didn't use restrooms or ask for other amenities like high chair, booster seat, etc. Billing is customary, no cash only rules, TV is there as background accompaniment. Neighbors are typical suburbaney strip mall-like handling, parking is easy afront mere meters from the door, and carry-out is available for all items.

TiP: Massive menu-something for everyone…read more We went here for dinner to meet friends who drive across town once a month just to enjoy the great food at this hidden gem in Croydon Park. Tucked into the back corner of the parking lot next to an Asian grocery, it's easy to find if you know it's there. Decor is, well...unpretentious (you can ignore the "Paris" screen in the corner too). Dress is as casual as you want to be. Service is fast-both order taking and food delivery. Dishes are brought out as they are ready but our table of four all got their mains within 3-4 minutes of the first one being served. Every dish has a fresh, crisp, made-for-you taste and you can find the layers of flavour in each dish--this food hasn't been sitting in a steam table all night developing "mono-taste." Some items are marked spicy--tangy is probably a better word. However there is plenty of hot sauce at the table to flame it up a notch or two. Prices are VERY reasonable-mains are mostly in the less than $15 range and serves are available as small, large, and extra-large. Trust me and go with large unless you are enormously hungry. Yen Linh is highly recommended for great food and service. You can pay more, but you won't eat better. Eat, drink and be merry--but not too much! JD

I recommend everyone to eat at the venues (little nnq on gouger street) are just incredible. Always packed and can be loud, so get into this Vietnamese restaurant and eat one of each!. You shouldn't be disappointed. **Haven't had to re edit my posts before till now.** I had walked up to a touch screen that had said "loyalty card" I have gone up to the station, pressed to think that this would be a good idea as I come back regularly. But encountered after I had posted my review, one of the male staff approached me in an aggressive manner. In his words "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU DOING!." came up speed walking, the facial expression on his face would be enough to make a minor upset. At no point should an employer or employee speak in such tone to a customer. The meaning for this edit Is that, I hope the NNQ owner on Woodville RD can re-inform it's employees. That under no circumstances, should anyone raise there voice at a customer. I hope this can be resolved, by putting a sign up saying. "Do not touch unless you are an employee" Hope to see improvement, but won't be back for a good few months. Hope to come back and review changes to this "staff machine" Tip. * Don't display loyalty card if there are no loyalty cards at this venue. Confusion may occur to customer.

I've been a regular at this place for a few years, since it first opened at Ferryden Park and then…read moremoved to Woodville. Since the move to Woodville, they have up the place to be more trendy and cafe like, and their signatures are on the bowls. It has better parking facilities then the old place as it is across from the train station and the place is more equipped to fit more customers in and disability friendly car parking. So you can either drive here or train it in from the city. The staff are friendly and efficient and were greeted at the door immediately as we stepped in and we got seated without no hassles or bookings. The place use to be a pub but now decorated with Vietnamese decorations of rickshaws, plants and feng shui items but still looks cafe, casual setting but trendy. The meals here range from entrees of $12+, mains are $13+ and they do shared meals of grill it yourself $50 for 2 people, to $80 for 4 people. They have quite an extensive range of meals, from rice combos, vermicelli salads/soups, noodles soups/fried, vegetarian dishes and pho noodle soups. You won't be disappointed here. Meals can be shared here, as the servings are big or to taste different types of meals. I ordered the: Combination Vermicelli Salad (Bun Thap Cam): Sugar cane prawn, bbq pork, spring roll, preserved pork loaf, salads served on cold vermicelli noodles with side of fish sauce. This was delicious, the noodles were steamed instead of being boiled, so the texture was flavoursome as it absorbed the spring onions and meats instead of being watery. I really enjoyed the sugar cane prawn and the spring roll. Thumbs Up! Combination Rice Noodle - Hu tieu Thap Cam (dry version): There is the soup or dry version. I chose the dry as I wanted the flavours of the sauces and meats to be mixed with the noodles as sometimes the soup can make the flavours disappear. With the dry version, it comes with a side of soup. It is pork flavoured soup and the meats are cooked sliced pork, cooked prawns, sautéed ground pork, squid rings, fried garlic and caramelized shallot. It is covered with chives, oil and garlic for the extra taste and garnished with lettuce, cashew nuts and coriander. Thumbs Up! Hint 1: Ensure you mention to the staff if you want small or large serving, otherwise you will automatically be served/billed a large serving which is very filling. I had to get take-away. Hint 2: You will be charged for anything extras here, for example hosin sauce for $2.00, take away containers are $0.50. Overall, Thumbs up and I will be returning very soon to this place.

For $30+ (can't rem the exact figure) value meal, you can order from a range of about 20 or so dishes. It's 3 dishes of your choice and a complimentary soup of the day, and steam rice included.

Weekday and weekend nights are normally packed, so you should be there early if only to avoid the dinner rush hour.
