I was offered a small bowl of homemade kimchi to go with my Tiger beer, which I was delighted by! I've wanted to try Kimchi for AGES! And it was so tasty :-) I ordered a king prawn pho. Flat noodles; halved prawns; fresh coriander, basil and mint; sliced red chilli and bean sprouts on the side which I added. I also asked if they could give it a bit of a kick to try and sink my blossoming cold and they kindly obliged. Not too hot, but enough to give it some warmth. Omnomnom! Gorgeous :-) I spoke to the owner afterwards and he said they were quite new. I would definitely be back if I'm in the area.

I had one of the soups with rice vermicelli, beef and vegetables. It was good but no matter what spiciness I added, the broth still seemed too bland for my preference. Same for my wife's rice vermicelli with mixed vegetables. The little bowl of pickled vegetables that was brought to the table were delicious. Just the right amount of spice and pickling. The restaurant is very clean, nicely decorated and it's front tables open to the sidewalk, with a couple of tables outside. Also the price was very reasonable. I'd like to give these nice people 4 stars for all the above, but the main entree failed to satisfy.

Not very impressed with the Banh Mi special…read more I love my Vietnamese sandwiches so was positively salivating to get my hands on the £5.50 special filled with sausage, floss, salad and more. But sadly it was a big disappointment. Well, I say big, but it was actually a bit skinny and long. For me a Banh Mi should be a crispy fresh-baked demi almost the shape of a pair of lips and stuffed as full as possible with goodies. This was basically a bit of a thin baguette sliced and filled quite thinly. For £5.50 it was a bit of a rip off considering a similarly underwhelming baguette sandwich can be got over the road at M&S for £3 or so. Hopefully I'll get a chance to come back to Ngon to try their Pho. When I do I hope they've upper their game with the Banh Mi. At the least, please just get better bread!

Caphe Guest is the sort of place you would pick food from if you are lazy to cook and need a quick fix for a hungry tumm. Recommend staying away from the woked egg noodles and fried noodles. The egg noodles are very very ok and although the fried noodles came with some good stir-fried chicken, the noodles basket had a stale oil stench. Must try - chicken curry and rice. Go for a cup of Jasmine tea to ease in the heavy food. Flavourful combination. Ambiance is cold. But this is made up for by the fantastic service. We have been there when they were almost closing and they have served us with sincerity and warmth. Each person who has served us so far has been excellent. Caphe Guest is a place for a quick fix.

The average: the sampler platter of dumplings, colorful but nothing standout and the chicken fried rice was very plain, so we added soy sauce and chili oil.

After eating a lot of chips, sausage rolls, and other English staples, we wanted to get something a little healthier and familiar. I cannot tell you how disappointed we were with this meal.
