Positive User: Always the most favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Bangkok among Vietnamese friends! Glad it is reopen this time. Food is yummy, and deco is very cozy with charm of Vietnamese culture.
Positive User: Even though I tried other Vietnamese restaurants in town but I still love to come here the most.
Good taste and atmosphere.
Positive User: Food here was so delicious and authentic! We came around 2:15pm in time for the lunch sets. 2 customers came in at around 2:50pm and the workers let them in even though they close at 3pm (but open again at 5pm). My friend had the pork vermicelli bowl and the pork was cooked so well, perfectly charcoaled on the outside. I had the pork with rice which came with an egg loaf and it was so good!! Every set was around 250 baht, and they all came with a little side of soup or salad. I wish I could come here everyday! The interior decor was beautiful as well. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Four Stars
Positive User: Delicious food, unfamiliar dipping sauce
Good management, not enough service people
The price is a bit high according to the rich zone.
Salted snakehead fish is delicious.
delicious vietnamese bread
ok coffee
Positive User: Visited for lunch because I wanted to eat pho.
The lunch set came with spring rolls and raw spring rolls, and it was a very filling set.
Everything is delicious and satisfying! The price may be a little high. .
I also love banh mi, so I want to try it next time!
Positive User: Very good eats. We ordered “ca kho to”, pho tai and “bo la lot”, all of which were very good. If they can move the restroom to the bottom floor, it would be excellent. J/s

Three Stars
Neutral User: The ambience with colorful lantern and wooden furniture makes the place looks nice but a table near entrance with wooden chair may not make you feel comfort. Not sure if this is authentic but I find Vietnamese meatball wrap is different from others.
Neutral User: Everything is just fine. I was expected too much, not really authentic taste compared to eating in Vietnam. The broth of pho is good and quite rich, but the noodles are the worst part, not chewy or even have a normal texture. However, there is some spot that still is ok to order which is a tofu appetizer, good seasoning and sauce. Dessert pudding is ok too. Overall, nothing special, would recommend to go somewhere else.
Neutral User: Beautifully decorated cafe. My husband enjoyed his lotus root salad. But I am not a fan of the Bun Cha. The meat has no grilled or smoky flavour. The sauce is too sweet and there are not enough herbs. I’ve had much better Bun Cha in another Vietnamese restaurant in Bangkok. Drinks are also overpriced. A small bottle of water is 40 baht.

Two Stars
Negative User: Dropped by to grab a quick salad for dinner, found that food and atmosphere were great, but the two front staffs were unwelcoming.
I really liked the restaurant and its vegetarian dishes – varieties of food, but servers could use more alertness. Otherwise they’re not worth the services charged and likely wont be returning,
Negative User: We eat here regularly and the food is usually good. However we noticed with online delivery the quality really varies and I recently ordered a pork dish via food panda which gave me really bad food poisoning for 2 days. Perhaps they give less attention to the quality of food for online deliveries.
Negative User: food was great, it’s our favorite Vietnamese restaurant in BKK. have dined at this restaurant numerous times.
it’s a pity however that their service had worsened so much which affected our lunch experience on last visit, especially so by one of the staff.
perhaps owner might want to improve in this area.
One Star
Negative User: The food is greasy overall and the taste of the rice noodles I ate in Hanoi is not at all.
I ordered Pobo and Poga and a roll.
Banmi orders can be known even without cancellation.
The price of food is different from the site price. Pobo 220 baht special 240 baht service, 17% tax added.
There is no lunch set on the website.
It is completely unreasonable to go to eat Vietnamese noodles at this price.
Negative User: I went there for lunch, one of the staff told me to go up find table on 2nd floor, but there wasn’t any table so I went up again to 3d and waited there almost 20 min, one showed up, I came down again and called the waiter, but she was just standing there. Finally she came up to me and said the table I was sitting is reserved, so I need to move somewhere.
I left the place very “hangry”
Wouldn’t recommend to any body
Negative User: I guess you just lost a customer though because you’re closing for two hours in the middle of the day. This is the best Phó since I was in Texas. The broth is delicious and the vegetables are fresh. They deliver it in very nice convenient containers and a paper bag which I really like. I got the D set which was a great value and the broth was still nice and hot in the plastic bag.
