Vy Nam Cafe in Barnet

Great Vietnamese place, very tasty food and good service. Would recommend eating in over takeaway as some of the food doesn't travel great.

Fabulous, authentic and utterly delicious! Had the best lunch today at Vy Nam. We ordered and shared mango salad, summer rolls, chicken pancake, BBQ prawns and Basa fish rice paper pancakes. Everything was so fresh and so utterly tasty. Service was excellent too, relaxed friendly and helpful. 100% recommended this place and looking forward to visiting again already

First of all, don't judge by the size or the look of the restaurant. It's a single 'shop' unit with ordinary dining tables, but that's where the 'ordinary' ends. The food is excellent and flavours highly appetising and naturally, definitely distinct from those you will experience in a Chinese restaurant.Two of us had different starters and main courses and neither of us could fault any of the dishes. I have every intention of re-visiting.

No frills delicious Vietnamese food! The hosts are quite nice (except they try to cheekily get you to spend more money by encouraging you try out more dishes).

Delicious authentic Vietnamese food. Good vegetarian options and drink options. Friendly staff and fair prices. Food is good quality.

Ordered prawn noodles for lunch - surprised to find 1 measly prawn inside! I called to complain about it and was told 'sorry we probably only had one prawn left!' and 'sorry what would you like us to do about'.Food wasnt nothing special. Especially for the price. Maybe some better customer service would help this place. In any event why would you send out an order if you only have ONE prawn left in stock!Wish 0 stars was possible.

Had the chicken pho once - chicken is extremely dry (you can tell it's overcooked and not fresh) and the broth is very oily, which is very off-putting. We also had the viet spring rolls, which was extremely oily, they didn't let it sit long enough, so oil was literally dripping off and oil running down my hands and arms; not ideal and had to wash my hands (very unpleasant)Unsatisfied, we're still on the quest to look for a good pho/vietnamese restaurant in North London.

Casual authentic Vietnamese restaurant. Good quality of dishes at reasonable price. Every dish was tasty and authentic. But chicken in pho special was a bit dry, noodles were crumbled up in to one big ball so was hard to eat. Soup was heated to frequently so it was a bit too concentrated/Salty. This is only disappointment I had.

Have no complaints about my crispy duck with rice. Busy place, good for a quick bite. Friendly owner.

It was ok. Use to come regularly, haven't been for over 1.5years now. Went to lunch on a Saturday, hardly anyone there. Portions size of the mains and starters and salad - was small. The seafood bahn xeo was not as tasty the squid inside was rubbery- not recommended, the salad wrap was small and no directions on how to eat it. The papaya salad was fresh but portion size was not generous. Summer rolls again didn't taste very fresh, the skin was overly hard. Dessert menu was disappointing nothing Vietnamese about it. 1 main and 2 starters and 1 salad and homemade lemonade was just under £40.
