Reviews
"Everything was great the flavours and tastes were awesome. Meal size was brilliant. I couldn’t eat all even though I tried would recommend it and will be back again to try the rest of the menu. Thank you."
"I love this place ♥️. I was there 2 weeks ago. The food is very delicious and always tastes great. I ate a spicy prawn a coconut fried rice and coctel.... Hot lips... I didn't like it, was only juicy and ice."
"have been wanting to try this place for a while as i’ve been getting recommendations on instagram. it is a very busy restaurant popular with locals. beef pho had nice broth, not too oily, good portion of beef and noodles. creamy chicken curry was very nice. i recommend crispy cauliflower for starters as portions are big and quite filling. i was disappointed with the service though. not once did anyone ask how our food was even though the waiter walked past us many times. he was being very attentive to the table next to us who arrived later. at some point, it was kinda obvious they were ignoring our table."
"Great dining experience. Every time we drove past this restaurant at Mount, we would see how busy it was. So, we decided to give it a go. We were quickly seated! The staff is friendly, and the food is amazing. I recommend the creamy chicken curry and calamari. We also tried the chicken pho, but it wasn't for us. However, we could see why it was a great hit, and it offers great value with big portions! My wife is a picky person when it comes to taste, presentation, customer service, and cleanliness. But this will be our go-to place."
