Delicious food, awesome staff & lovely decor. Portions are good and the prices are incredible. You couldn’t ask for a better place to come & eat! It is cash only, so bear that in mind. The post office across the road has a cash point & there are several up and down the main road it’s on.

We were looking for a restaurant to escape from the rain, only to find a nice quiet spot at this small unassuming space - with pleasantly surprising vegan fare, for a Vietnamese restaurant. Tasty food, sweet and hospitable service! Note: cash-only, so do go prepared.

I'm glad I found this hidden gem! I came here before a gig and must say food was AMAZING! We all ordered different foods and I must say every single dish looked delicious. Everything is reasonably priced as well. We will definitely be back. It will be hard to choose what to order next time!

We had a good experience here, but overall I wasn't blown away. The spicy tofu simply wasn't spicy! It lacked flavour in general 😔 the squid and spring rolls were excellent to start with!The downstairs toilet was a little underwhelming too, very dimly lit! There was also a jar with coffee beans hanging from the ceiling - quite unexpectedAs other people have commented, only cash or bank transfer! Seems pretty dodgy but I'm sure they have their reasons !Staff were very attentive and nice

Bad experience.Chairs stained and dirty.Menu filthy, did not want to hold it.Fryed starters smelling of overused oil.Main dish chicken smalest portion ever.CASH ONLY but only anounced when you ask to pay.Never again

Really good Vietnamese food - will be visiting again!I think this is some of the fairest, cheaply priced BUT good tasting Vietnamese food you’ll find in London. Most restaurants will charge £13+ for a main, but not this lovely place.Only criticism would be that my usual BBQ pork (bun thit nuong) came deconstructed, so it was harder to eat. Not a massive problem and still super tasty.The staff were friendly too ♥️

Best Vietnamese food! Friendly and really attentive staff, food was delicious and authentic and the price is seriously amazing, especially for london. There’s a really extensive vegan menu with several options for starters mains sides and noodle dishes and I loved it as a vegetarian, but my friend said the meat is also very tasty. Going to come back and bring all my friends! Thank you

Such amazing pho!! Loved how there was a clear vegan and meat menu. Super duper tasty, loved the veggie + tofu version. Staff were friendly & the food was quick. Only side note is they are cash only - the sign has worn off the front door so we didn’t realise until we went to pay.

Would give 5 stars if it was not for the fact that they accept cash only. This is not fair guys. Please be honest and let people pay with card.Loved the food, although a bit pricey.

This was my first visit to a restaurant since lockdown started in March. It was great to get out and start dining again. I felt perfectly safe dining here as it was not too busy.The service we received was excellent. They allowed us to order our friend’s dishes later as she was running late, and even kept them warm until she arrived.The food was delicious. It is probably one of the best Vietnamese i have had in London. I had the imperial chicken with a side of egg fried rice and vegetarian spring rolls. At £22 including service, i thought this was very good value.Only complaint (it is small), is the lack of beer options on the menu: there is only one - which i wasn’t keen in so i stuck to water.Would highly recommend this place.
