Terrible experience. Totally understand that it was a Saturday evening but to wait half an hour for two drinks is extremely poor. Didn’t even bring water whilst we were waiting, so sat at an empty table for 30 minutes. We wish we had of left before food arrived to save us the disappointment. Pho lacked any flavour or spice (despite being a 8 on the spice scale).Asked for a spoon and spoon was slammed down on the table as if it was a major inconvenience. We had to go to Nando’s after as we were still hungry.Avoid avoid avoid. Giving one star is being kind.

I'm being kind giving it a 2.When I arrived the table next to my had a young couple who had left their meal uneaten.The waitress said that they didnt like the food.I remarked to the waitress that that was unusual as the meal was expensive £30 for the 2 dishes.I said I'm surprised they didnt try to eat some of it.I thought it looked tasty so ordered the tofu soup at £12.My friend took the chicken. What a struggle it was to try to eat it.It was disgusting....the best thing was the glass of water .😫There are lots of good restaurants in byres road that provide tasty food I'd go there.👍

A cozy hidden away little spot. We went as a small group of four and ordered the Banquet Feast which was delicious and super filling. I'd recommend the black pepper & soy glazed tofu, lamb Dan Dan and whole deep fried gurnard. Of all the meals we tried on the night, those three won the show for me.

Great space and loved the exterior but the Pho didn't blow us away, tofu was too hard and uninspiring drinks menu. The vermicelli noodles and daikon cakes were good though.

Some of the best Pho I've had since living in Hawaii. Huge portions for an amazing price, staff is super friendly and there's a reason you need to book because they're busy for a reason!!! I don't have pictures of our food as we ate it so quick, the pork shoulder skewers and pepper tofu were incredible. I had chicken pho at an 8 spice, perfect to give you a tingle with the flavor still there, husband had beef pho at a4 to 6 and he ate almost the whole bowl. It was so hard to choose just one dish, but this is definitely a new favorite spot!

Huuuuge bowls of pho, fantastic sides and a nice chilled atmosphere.

Unfortunately the food lacked depth of flavour. The pork belly was served in a broth that I could only say tasted like honey and water. I'm sure things can get better!

One of my favorite restaurants in Glasgow! Delicious vegan options! Been here 3 times and the food is oh-so-good. Their temple tofu is flavorful, but my ultimate favorite thing on the menu is their daikon cakes!!! So good!! Highly recommend this spot for both vegans and non-vegans.

Lovely environment and friendly staff. The presentation of the food is really nice. The flavor of the food, however, is rather disappointing. We had four people and ordered the banquet with a wide range of food. The only thing that I kind of enjoyed is the fish. Coming from an Asian country with a British family and living and working in the UK for many years, I would say this is Asian food with western taste, very different from my impression of Vietnamese food. I noticed there weren't many Asian people in the restaurant at the start. I didn't like the food but my British family were singing the praise of it. I found that the food was overly salty and the flavors were not well balanced.I had a great time because of the fantastic company but don't think I would come back anytime soon...

Went here with friends on the 12th of May (very delayed review). We had a really great time, the atmosphere was comfortable and lively at the same time. The food was incredible! We were served by Clora, who knew the menu inside and out, gave perfect recommendations and was very accommodating to the vegans in our group. Service from Clora and the kitchen was speedy. We all enjoyed our food (see pictures) and once again I cannot hype up the vegan options enough - Will defiantly be back!
