I had been scouring Hong Kong for good Vietnamese fare. This restaurant was just the place to help…read moresatiate my Vietnamese food cravings. I don't know how I decided to eat here for the first time (whether it was a recommendation from a policy coworker that would serve as a gleaming recommendation, or noticing a Vietnamese restaurant named after a famous beach town), but I enjoy trying Viet food in non-Viet areas whenever I can (think outside of Vietnam or Vietnamese community centers). Of all the Vietnamese restaurants in Hong Kong I have tried so far, the food at this restaurant tastes closest to what I remember eating as a child, which is Vietnamese food made by Vietnamese people for Vietnamese people. Mind you, I was based in New Territories, so it's not as internationally oriented as Hong Kong Island is, so options are limited. If you're in New Territories and want to taste more traditional Vietnamese food, this place holds promise. I've tried their com tam, bánh cuon, bún bò Hue, bánh xèo, and bún riêu. These are all safe things for me to order, as they're all dishes that I've grown up eating. The fish sauce of course is the key element of flavoring to many of these dishes (the non soup noodle dishes), so don't forget to add the fish sauce!

While this isn't the best Vietnamese food I've ever had in my life, this is definitely good…read moreVietnamese food at very reasonable prices. To start off, make sure you get the coffee -- it packs quite a punch and is not too sweet. If you're visiting from the United States or Canada, you'll instantly notice that there's many more dishes than the Pho, Bun, and Banh Mi -- which are really the only widely available dishes you'll find in North America. There's still a definite influence from French cooking on the other available dishes, but I would recommend venturing out of your comfort zone and definitely trying something spicy or some grilled meats. For something a little different but familiar, I would give the rice paper salad rolls and vermicelli cake a try. Overall, a nice place to visit for fresh, light Vietnamese food.

What to expect? A casual dining experience with affordable prices. What's on the menu? Noodle soup, cold vermicelli, red rice dishes and appetisers. What to order? The cold vermicelli with lemongrass chicken wings (42 hk dollar / 5.1 €), a refreshing dish that will combat HK's brutal heat; a killer combination with the tasty Vietnamese steamed rice rolls (42 hk dollar). What to skip? The (hot) coffee (20 hk dollar / 2.3 €).

I must say that there was a lady who worked there who was slightly older than the other staff who stepped in and helped but she was working her tables quite steadily and efficiently. Positives: the food was quite good and although I was not happy about the service, I'll most likely go back. The shrimp and pork spring rolls were delicious, the chicken with beef broth Pho was tasty, the mango rice with soft crab my husband loved, and the grapefruit berry spritzer( I can't remember the exact name) was refreshing!!! If this restaurant works on their customer service and their timeliness it would be five stars for me!

The pork was lean with very little bone. It was fried nicely and surprisingly worked with the wet noodles. The amount of noodles was sufficient and the broth was sweet and flavourful. The drink I ordered, the 珍多冰 (Cendol, I think) was absolutely fantastic, to the point where I am going to probably try to make it myself soon. I think I really got hooked on it. One time I came I tried the add noodle option for an extra $8 HKD, but I didn't think there was a lot more noodles than the regular bowl. Also, since the bowl has a set size, they might give you some extra noodles, but then you don't have enough broth, so you lose out in the end. Next time I come back I hope this place will be open because I definitely would come back.

I was a little late, so they picked out a restaurant - Pho 24 - and told me to come straight there. I'd never of Pho 24 and thought it was kind of a strange name for a restaurant. I still don't know the significance of the number 24, by the way! When I got there, I realized that the place looked familiar. It dawned on me that this is the same restaurant that was on the first floor of New Town Plaza in Sha Tin. I'd even eaten there once and thought the pho was good, but nothing spectacular. Anyway, I was really glad my friends had arrived earlier and gotten a table first because the place was really crowded. There was a line outside the restaurant and there wasn't a single vacant table. The restaurant was really noisy as well. They had a couple of lunch sets but since I didn't want a side (I had had a big breakfast before leaving the house), I just ordered the pho with raw beef off the a la carte menu. I was impressed with how fast the food came given how crowded the restaurant was. The pho, just like what I thought if it when I had it in Sha Tin, was average. The soup was a little too salty for my taste. I thought the beef tasted a little funny but it wasn't too bad. My friends who had ordered the pho as well said they really liked it, so maybe I was just being picky! (I am used to the standards set by my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in HK, Nha Trang, so that might account for my super picky taste buds for pho!) Although my food came quickly, my opinion of their service changed after that when I tried to get the attention of the waiters to ask for tissue. Everybody was so busy and they didn't really notice my raised hand. This happened again when we called for the bill - there simply weren't enough waiters to cater to all of us. I noticed that the lady at the table next to us had the same problem. Her hand was in the air as she scanned restaurant for someone to come to her. We made eye contact and she shot me a mutual 'I know, right?' while sighing. Overall, I think this is a good place to go for an affordable lunch. The service is a little slow at times but given how crowded it gets, it can't be helped. I don't know if I'll be back as I think there's only one branch at the moment and I rarely ever go to iSquare, but the pho didn't impress me so I will try something else if I am ever back!
