Chi - Fresh Taste of Vietnam in City of London

Wish they would open back nice staff

Awesome little vietnamese gem. It's been here at least 5 years and never fails to deliver fresh, tasty, relatively affordable salads Pho and spring rolls. It's not exactly that authentic, there isn't really anywhere to sit and the meats are all a little overcooked... but it's brilliant for quick tasty lunch.

I can see that all the reviews are so positive but for me, I had the worst lunch experience yesterday. Within a couple of hours, I was sent home from work after falling ill. Spent the rest of the night hugging the loo with it coming out of both ends! I know for sure this is what caused it. I thought it was strange when he microwaved the food? I've never seen another shop prepare pho in this way. Anyway, I won't be going back now after this!

I was going to try this place out before Christmas as review rating was good. When I went into shop and saw that they heated the food in microwave, I turned and walked straight back out. On top of that the meat/seafood display didn't look fresh to me - definitely not for me!

Good service. The food was really spicy in the sense of it being hot, which I liked very much but hotness does not equate taste as many people seem to think and the food was a bit bland. Good portions

A regular lunch spot for me, the pho is delicious and always served with a smile.

Great, small little Vietnamese takeaway that do a killer satay chicken banh mi. Have been several times and never been disappointed. Lots of other noodle options and also very tasty summer rolls - can't wait to visit again...

Spicy bun bo hue (Beef brisket noodle soup) is extremely good and well-priced. The staff are friendly and nice too, it doesn't feel rushed when you're inside, despite being a small area. I work nearby so Chi has become my favourite local. And yes, it's definitely better than Banh Mi Bay.

Friendly fast service and good value pho & bun hue. All cooked to order. Can get busy at lunch but worth a few minutes wait.

A good bánh mì option with excellent summer rolls - have had them made up fresh to order, which is always nice. Friendly staff in a small shop so a good lunch spot for a quick and fresh option.
