My second time to visit. I remember when I was first introduced to Vietnamese cuisine here. I was impressed with the big bowl of pho and had fun making my own cold rolls lol. I also liked their durian smoothies. This time, I ordered the combination rice and hubby chose the spicy beef noodle soup. He ended up ordering his own combination rice. (He's not satisfied with sharing plate hahaha) I love the combination rice. I think this is one dish that I'll keep ordering here from now on lol. I'm more of a 'rice meal" person and this dish is like perfect for me. All the ingredients are appealing for my taste --- the crispy pork, the sunny side up egg, meat loaf and the vermicelli. I also love the vinegar dip which makes the dish tastier! Oh and this is served with a small bowl of yummy broth. I also tried hubby's spicy beef bowl but I was too keen with my own plate so I just find the noodle soup ok. Customer service wise, the girl who took our order and prepared our table wasnt friendly --- looks so bored, didnt even smile. But the guy who served our meal is very nice and cheerful. read more

I visited Thanh-Thanh for the first time on Tuesday and was absolutely blown away. I had seen it hiding down that little alley way that is Field Street, and had been meaning to hit it up for some time. Finally that opportunity arose. I was pretty much in it for the Pho, which is probably my favorite Vietnamese dish and I wanted to see where they ranked. They pretty much topped the town. There was a number of different options available, which for starters was welcome change. I almost regret now not being a bit more adventurous and ordering ordering one the more special pho's on offer, such as the combination which included tripe and meatballs. However, the fresh beef slice pho which I ordered was really too good to complain about. Served with a plate of fresh beenshoots, coriander, basil and a big bowl of fresh chili (which i might add was perfectly temperatured) the fragrant broth was delicious and the lightly cooked meat was juicy and tender. There was chili sauce on the table which I tried separate to the pho to see what it was like. It had that characteristic peanut taste that is present everywhere other than china town cafe and which I find a bit unpleasant. An oddity I noticed was the service of the cutlery of which I have uploaded a photo. Between the two of us we were presented with one western fork, one western spoon a set of chopsticks and an asian style soup spoon aesthetically arranged, but with no concordance as to which implement belonged to whom. Don't know whether this is some sort of cultural tradition or just an all bases covered approach, either way it was quite amusing. read more

Thanh-Thanh is our ultimate go to for a Pho fix. We also enjoy the chicken Maryland and noodles served with the soup on the side. The quail is generous and juicy, not shriveled and dry like you can get at other Vietnamese places. We also enjoy the make your own rice paper rolls - delish! The wine and beer list is good, prices equal value for money and atmosphere is warm, clean and friendly. read more

Thanh-Thanh Vietnamese Restaurant - Combination Rice. - Restaurants Near Me - Adelaide, SA

What started as a back up plan has now become one of our favourites! We only ever have Pho or Bun Bo Hue there but that's because it is so delicious I don't want to have food envy. The soup has good flavour and depth, servings are generous and the rare beef is my favourite.Bun Bo Hue is the spicy noodle soup which will leave your tastebuds tingling with much excitement. It's a simple honest place that offers good comfort food at a good price. Their smoothies are super satisfying too! read more

I really was hoping for some killer bun bo hue (spicy pork and beef noodle soup) but it did not meet my expectations. I had read the reviews and saw that it was also recommended by the restaurant. First off, it is not spicy! Bun bo hue comes from the area of Hue in Vietnam (hence the name). You traditionally eat it with pig's feet but I know that might be a bit much for most people so when mine came with a few pork slices, I understood. The broth itself wasn't as red as I would have liked and it needed a lot more fish sauce to bring the flavor up to par. The noodles had mostly small noodles but a few large noodles were in my bowl that were too tough to chew. They were actually hard so I took it out of my bowl. My fresh vegetables that came out had bean sprouts, herbs, lime, and red peppers. The red peppers were hot which I was pleased with. I needed more lime though and the staff were kind to bring it out for me. They were attentive and I appreciated that. I wasn't impressed with what I ordered but the restaurant was pretty packed with all different clientele from young professionals to families. The location is easy to find and I was hoping to have a meal that reminded me of my Mom's. That's quite hard to do so the restaurant gets higher marks for service and ambience but the food didn't make it. read more

Been here a few times now and used to come here quite a bit. Thanh Thanh is very reliable, the food is always consistently good. If you want comfort Vietnamese food, be it a steamy bowl of pho or a hearty plate of combination rice, this place always does it well. Beware though, don't order water... They charge for water. read more

Visited this place a few days ago for lunch. I like how it is hidden away from the Market masses. Funky diner-like decoration, large space, a tad noisy because of the excitement of the customers as they waited, slurped and ate their food. Had the pho, which was quite nice - very delicate flavours, more than what I was used to. Reasonably priced and overall a great experience. Pay them a visit and you will leave with a smile and a full belly read more

For a CBD quick pho fix, Thanh Thanh is your place to go. Hidden in a laneway, this pho joint also offers dishes from other cuisines, but why bother when they have pho? The meaty broth is not quite as good as the ones you'll get in Springvale, Melbourne, but for Adelaide CBD, it's as good as it gets. Definitely capable of scratching that pho itch! The custard apple smoothie is to die for, and the vietnamese coffee has my nod of approval too. The service is fairly efficient too, which is always good. I do think that it can get a little hard to hear yourself in Thanh Thanh. Being asian, it's typically noisy. So go here if you want pho, but avoid bringing your first date here unless it's a blind date and you don't want to talk to them! read more

Located in the Chinatown is such a huge plus since its just so convenient. Thanh Thanh, in my opinion, is the most decent Vietnamese restaurant around that area. They also offer a wide variety of dishes with reasonable price. The place is often packed but still there's always a few free seats so that you rarely have to wait. The service is OK quite slow during lunch hour but thats acceptable. Every once in a while I would encounter a grumpy waiter but well who doesn't have bad days? With all that advantages why did I give it a 3? The thing is that the food there is just OK, it's neither extremely good nor bad, its just an OK. Given the fact that I know how most of the authentic dishes taste like, this place can get a 5 or 6 on the scale of 10. Every restaurant has their best dishes that makes you come back every once in a while but there isn't anything like that in Thanh Thanh for me. I would still recommend this place though. read more

Had a family get together here for lunch on a Sunday when many surrounding options were closed. Staff were attentive and friendly and made a special effort with the kids in our group (always appreciated). Prices are very reasonable and portions generous. I didn't try any of the entrees because we were late arriving. I had the fresh beef pho (noodle soup) which came with a side plate heaped with fresh herbs, crunchy bean sprouts and sliced red chillies to add to my taste. The fresh (uncooked) beef cooked as it was stirred through the hot soup, resulting in tender and tasty meat. I was heavy handed with the herbs and sprouts but opted to do without the chilli. The flavour was fresh, if slightly understated, although perhaps it really needs that chilli to kick it up a notch? You have the option to order extra meat for a small extra charge, but I was quite satisfied with the quantity of meat in my regular portion. Washed it all down with their fresh lemon soda which is house made and deliciously refreshing (stir it well). Affordable, filling lunch and friendly service. read more

Reasonable prices. Best roast pork around Gouger St as its super crispy. The pho is gd too. The vietnamese coffee unfortunately was not hot when served. Their cold rolls are freshly made. Fried quails are a gd choice. Good for bringing overseas visitors. read more

Thanh-Thanh Vietnamese Restaurant - Tasty pho - Restaurants Near Me - Adelaide, SA

Great place for a quick lunch away from food halls n this is restaurant which provides service for the same price! Glad that the hot weather disappeared n cold enough for a nice bowl of pho. The freshly cut chillies had some bite to it on this visit, I would not put any sauce in the pho soup as if u want heat u should have ordered the spicy soup The thinly sliced beef cooks in the hot broth n that's just perfect with heaps of crunchy bean sprout. Pity that the stalks of Thai basil were bit tough on this occasion Very satisfying lunch indeed read more

Went last night. This place has some really good Vietnamese food and it's very well priced. My girlfriend had the Vietnamese salad and very much enjoyed it. For main she had the salt and pepper squid, and said it was some of the very best S&P Squid she has ever had. I had the fried dim sims for a starter. They were delish, served with a side of chilli oil. For main I had the pork and rice combination. That's Pork done three ways, with rice and a egg. Tremendous! I definitely need to go back and try there Poh. In my opinion this would be the best Vietnamese restaurant I have been to in Adelaide with great prices to match. read more

Awesome. Came here for a feed after reading the reviews. Place was pretty full and the food did not disappoint. Had the cold rolls and beef pho with a few 333's. Quick service and very well priced. Will be back when I am back in Adelaide. read more

Why not just keep adding to the reinsurance that this place is great for Vietnamese food?! Afterall I feel somewhat obliged to write a review now after uploading half the menu into the images field. Plus I'm pretty sure my boyfriend is Thanh-Thanh's number one customer. If it's not him, after reading Adeline's review then perhaps it's her. Thanh-Thanh is a pretty simple concept really, nothing too fancy however just authentic, delicious and CHEAP Vietnamese food. If I were ever to say a single bad word about this place I think the boyfriend would disown me. Luckily for him, and all of Thanh-Thanh's other lovers, I'm not! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy! read more

Time and time again I've told about fantastic Vietnamese joints in the Western suburbs (and sometimes the Northern suburbs, unfortunately very rarely down South), but the thing is I don't drive and often am stuck in the CBD when I get a craving for pho. Enter Thanh Thanh. Sure, it's not as cheap as the pho we used to get at the bottom of my apartment building in Vietnam, but I still love it. The plate of fresh herbs, the chilis, the sauces, the meaty broth. Everything is good. It might not be the best, but my tastebuds have never complained. Of course, it's not just a pho joint, Thanh Thanh has a pretty full Vietnamese menu. As well the pho I'm a little star struck by the green papaya salad, Asian salads have a special place in my heart, and this one ticks all the right boxes. If you're after CBD Vietnamese this couldn't be more recommend. Also, make sure you try their smoothies, especially the custard apple. I've tried re-creating it at home, and I've got a long way to go. read more

If you like spicy food, go for the spicy beef and pork noodle soup. Perfect for a cold winters day.

This is one of the better Vietnamese places I've tried in Adelaide. In fact, I think that it'd compete well in Springvale or just about any area with a large Vietnamese population. The pho is really very good, and the serving sizes are really generous. A large bowl of the beautiful soup will nearly feed two people. The service is pretty decent, too. I thought they were pretty quick and efficient, polite and helpful. It's in a great location, but parking is a bit painful at times. I'll be going back again (and again, and again) for sure. read more

This place is awesome. The decor is colourful (I commend them for trying to pull off bight orange!) and the atmosphere is friendly and laid back. The best part? The food is so cheap and really really good. The rice paper rolls are amazing, as are the soups. You can tell its a good vietnamese dish if it's packed full of flavour with only a few ingredients. read more

Oh. My. God. If you know good Vietnamese food, you would know Thanh-Thanh! This place is amazing. Awesome value, quality food, friendly and helpful staff, and spacious (not to mention clean) interior. I regularly frequent this place on an (almost) weekly basis, and whenever a large group of us come in, the staff always set aside one of the long tables. Even when only a few of us have turned up, they set a long table aside anyway because they know more of us will show up - that's thoughtfulness and initiative right there. Favourite dishes? That's a tough one. The Pho, beef noodle soup and combination rice to name just a few. Also, try having crispy pork chops with dry egg noodles. Yum. Their generous portion sizes ensure satisfaction and a slight belt adjustment. Highly, highly recommended. read more

I tried this place for the first time after reading the rad reviews by all you guys on here, and I was impressed. All the right boxes were ticked: friendly staff, chilled atmosphere, CHEAP as anything and major portion sizes. I mean, for real. Next time I go I am ordering one main between two people, it was daunting even *looking* at the sheer enormity of the meal sizes! The food is more of a Chinese take on Vietnamese, with lots of familiarly Chinese items on the menu. I had the fried dim sum (oh lord, the sauce!) and lemongrass chilli chicken, which rated about a 1 on the chilli scale, but was otherwise yum. Homestyle, hearty Vietnamese at a rad price. Get involved! read more

Yep. Believe the reviews and the ranking. Best Vietnamese I have had in Adelaide. Big serves, prompt service, good wine by the bottle, will be back here on a regular basis. read more

One of my favourite restaurants, Thanh Thanh it has good food, in large portions, at low prices. I can never decide between Pho and Roast Pork and Vermicelli, but I'm never disappointed. read more

Delicious pho and coconut juice. Always the place to go when I am craving some noodles.

Thanh-Thanh isn't exactly fine dining, but it offers consistently good food at a fabulous price and with quick service. Definitely one of the best value-for-money restaurants in proximity of Gouger St, and probably also the best Vietnamese place in Adelaide, full-stop. read more

Delicious pho, spring rolls, every dish is so delicious! Strongly recommend everyone check it out. The food is so nice and fresh and very cheap. read more

SERVICE IS THE WORST..... those servers were extremely rude, very brass....the look on their faces were very heavy as if made of cement with asymmetrical smiles... such hypocrites! when it comes to waiting on locals these servers act as if they would lick their asses.. shame on them to treat their kinds soooo rudely, soooo disrespectfully!!! read more

Great place to get a quick lunch on a day off. The food is fresh, using the tasty Vietnamese favors!

Pho & Bun Bo Hue are very clean and tasty, they are the best in Adelaide! As a regular customer at Thanh Thanh, well known for their Pho & Bun Bo Hue (21. Pho Tai Nam & 35. Spicey Beef), lately I have sensed some changes in the strong delicious beef flavour of the broth. I have been eating Pho for many years and am very sensitive to the quality of the soup. Thanh Thanh have got their soup's taste spot-on, not to mention their cooked beef is so tender and nice. According to the Vietnamese, Pho is the most healthy nutritious dish; I bet I can eat Pho at Thanh Thanh everyday. When looking around in the restaurant, I can see why 90% of customers are having soups. Yummy :) read more

Had pawpaw Salad which is not interesting at all.... pho is Ok, but the beef is nice.

love the pho (beef noodle); stayed in the neighborhood for 2 nights and tried #18 (combo) and #19 (beef slices), plus the wonton soup (#2 appetizer)... all the selection taste great... bottom-line: will come back again. ratings that matter - food (5/5), service (4.5/5). read more
