We had a cracking meal here last night! The Bo Lac and Salmon Currie were standouts in a great meal. If you have not tried this place get amongst it!
An amazing and innovative take on Vietnamese cuisine! The food was packed full of flavour and overall very tasty! The exceptional customer service and great ambience was a definite plus would highly recommend!
Ordered takeaway . Food was fantastic and service was fabulous , I ordered duck roll and Ga Gin chicken . Roll was tasty and health , a lot of veg inside .one and only thing is very hard to find parking area . 走过路过 想在balmain 找一家好吃的地方， 误打误撞进入phomous ， 味道很地道，是传统的越南菜，量也很大，和入味，坐船来玩的朋友们不要错过啊，推荐他家的一个9$的鸡腿 叫Ga gon 我的妈呀 ，好吃到爆。一人可以吃两。

Wincing a little at the spelling of the name, I entered Phamous Kitchen with some trepidation. I’m not a big fan of Sydney’s Thai Foon of Thai Riffic restaurant pun names and I feared that Vietnamese restaurants were about to become just as Hanoi-ing... Luckily, in this case the name is simply a reference to the owner and chef, Thanh Pham. He lives in Bankstown - pretty much the heart of Sydney’s Vietnamese community - but has brought his cooking skills to bear in Balmain.The restaurant is situated on the highly competitive restaurant strip opposite Balmain Hospital and Gladstone Park. It slotted into the site vacated by One6Eight, just two doors away from another Vietnamese restaurant pushing a more traditional schtick. Gone are the...

As the name suggests, Phamous Kitchen is famous for good reason ✨
This place has spectacular food, truly amazing. Naturally, one of their signature dishes - the colourful crisp pork pancake took pride of place at the centre of my table and it was outta-this-world divine. Seriously....a MUST HAVE.
Accompanied with rice paper roll, lamb chop, tender seared scallop and Vietnamese iced coffees, lunch was amazing. This was plenty of food for 2 people (would've even fed a third!). I'm so glad I finally had the opportunity to try it after obsessing over all of the delicious photos I've seen.
Owners Thomas & Kate take pride in their modern twists on beloved Vietnamese classics, and Phamous Kitchen has become a real Balmain favourite because of their creativity and passion for cooking and maintaining such a beautiful restaurant.
Two inconsistencies in the food saw Phamous Kitchen lose some points but the food that hit the mark smashed it out of the park. I will return for Khot and if I lived near Balmain Hanoi rolls would be a staple of mine. If you want some good gourmet Vietnamese food in the Balmain area give the peeps at Phamous Kitchen a look in.
Full review is now up on Spooning - enjoy and have a great day :).
Pulled pork pancake with sauerkraut, Asian BBQ sauce, herbs, picked onion and goats curd. Love the gluten free menu at phamous kitchen. This pancake was on the specials menu not on the regular menu, so it may not be around for long.
Escape the hustle and bustle from the CBD and take a short bus ride to Balmain for the day. While there isn't much more to do than your typical suburban shops and cafe's - one stood out to us and be sure to visit Phamous Kitchen on Darling Street. The food and service is equally as great but it's who you are with that makes the whole dining experience special. Phamous Kitchen is a Vietnamese restaurant with a modern and creative flair.

Phamous Kitchen is a vibrant, fresh Vietnamese restaurant which brings a modern take on the traditional cuisine to Darling Street in Balmain. Even though it is surrounded by great food, Phamous Kitchen had a steady flow of people dining, even on our mid-week visit. The decor is welcoming and bright, while maintaining some of the elements of a traditional Vietnamese restaurant, like wooden beams and embellished tiles.
A great display of reimagined Vietnamese couched in great service and a nice central homely atmosphere. The Pulled Pork pancake was not on the menu and a newer addition which is highly recommended!
Vietnamese food fine dining! We came here to celebrate a birthday and it was a surprise! They have vegan dishes so it's a perfect combo!
Photos are Sun-kissed Mushy, Sun-kissed Scallop, Crispy Pulled Pork Pancake, Grilled Wild Barramundi, and Crushing Calamari. They were all yum!
Quite simply, this is one of the BEST restaurants in Balmain. Dear God, the food is extraordinary. The service is fantastic. I travel from Wollongong to eat here. You will not be disappointed at all. Highly recommend the pork belly w chilli jam, the rendang and the scallops. You need to eat here!!!
It’s great to be able to wine and dine again at this little boutique restaurant. Beautiful food and warm and friendly staff. This particular meal is one of my favourites. The fun part is making your own rolls of course!!!
Wonton is super goooood!
And the cocktail is also really special and has a unique flavour 💖
Tonight was my second visit to this Vietnamese Restaurant and certainly won't be the last of may more. Great menu items, Wonderful tasting foods, i wondered if the food would be of the same standard on my second visit but it exceeded my expectations again. I look forward to my next visit again soon.
The food here was absolutely delicious and came with unique flavours I hadn’t experienced before. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very relaxed, perfect for a night out with a loved one where you want to be able to chat easily over dinner. The staff were friendly and were easy to get a hold of.
We were thankful they were open as we dined on a public holiday. They charged an extra 10% because of it. This wasn’t a problem but it would have been nice to have been made aware of the additional charge up front, rather than when we got to paying the bill.
