It is past 1pm and I am ravenous so I drive to one of 6 nearby Vietnamese restaurants. On arrival I ask the waitress for a Big Pho Dac Biet with extra Meat/Offal.
My near boiling Combination Pho arrives after 5 minutes. The Beef broth is well balanced and tasty. I see a good serve of rice noodles and a generous serve of Beef Brisket, Raw Sliced Beef, Beef Tendon and Beef Balls. A very satisfying meal!
YUM!! Consistently beautiful, non pretentious food. Make your own rice paper rolls, chicken and cashews, combination soup and chicken omelet are some of my faves!!!!
Can’t go wrong with the crispy chicken and beef with peaking sauce. Yum and well priced every time. Food is always fresh and the service is quick.
As a family we love going to this place everytime we venture out to Darra. It's kid friendly, good food and excellent service . It's always efficient, clean and friendly. Great traditional Vietnamese menu, and well priced .
We had been wanting to travel out from the city to Darra for a Vietnamese fix for quite some time, and settled on Kim Khanh after reading positive reviews from loyal regulars on Zomato.
We had two absolutely delicious and fresh rice vermicelli bowls (one tofu, one beef), as well as some of the best salt and pepper tofu we've eaten as an entree.
Friendly service from a lovely young guy, and we wouldn't have waited more than 10 minutes for all of our (freshly prepared) food to arrive.
This is NOT a trendy inner city hipster dive with inflated prices, but IS a foodie paradise hidden away in Darra with a family-friendly vibe, and a slightly kitschy and dated decor that only added to the ambience.
Great value at $35 for two.
We'll be back very soon despite the half hour drive each way!
The pho here is a must try! We have never had a bad meal here and always make the extra drive to dine here. Every time we walk in we’re greeted by lovely staff and always have an amazing meal at a great price!
Have only had take away and the food has been fantastic. Hot and fresh when ever we have picked it up. Meals are generous and very tasty. Best I've had in a while.
This is one of my regular take away joints as it is only about 10 minutes away from my home.
I order a dish which isnt on the menu but the staff are always really happy and helpful to accomadate.
Salt n Pepper Pork Spare Ribs!!! Delightful!!! and the Szechuan chicken is super tasty also.
If your hungry, and want a nice place to go with your friends, i recommend trying it
Love this place. Great food with great service. Sat down & promptly bein served with prawn crackers. We ordered pho, steam fish, crispy chicken, and rice paper roll. All food were fresh & delicious. Definitely come back to try another menu.
I really like this place, it's simple and good value, the food is delicious and doesn't take too long. The service was interesting - at first I thought the guy was rude because everything was being done so fast and we felt hurried but then I got used to him and he was actually super friendly and just trying to provide good service - turned out to be a great guy. I like the little touches like the free prawn crackers to start and the orange slices at the end, so simple but really appreciated.
If you are looking for some great Asian cuisine look no further
The service was some of the best I have experienced
The food was delicious and kept me wanting more
The food was brought out very quickly
The price was reasonable ($80 for 4 mains and 2 entrees with drinks)
Overall very hard to fault and I will defiantly be going back!
Highly recommend if you are in the mood for Chinese or Vietnamese
Excellent and friendly service. They are really good with food sensitivities too. They can make gluten-free alternatives to most dishes on their menu. I had the salt pepper squid. The corn flour batter was tasty and light. My companions had quail and honey chicken. Each were quite satisfied and ate every morsel.
If you are looking for traditional Vietnamese Kim Khanh is your place to go! The staff are always friendly and your food always arrived in lightning fast time. My go to is the DIY rice paper rolls :)
So cheap and so good !!! In the heart of the Vietnamese community out in Darra.
My Friend You Number One (anyone who has ever eaten at Cam Rahn back in the day knows what I am talking about)
DELICIOUS!!. I've been here a few times and I never used to like it... I think I was ordering the wrong things or maybe my love of asian food has really sky rocketed in recent months/years. I had spring rolls, deep friend wontons & the chicken vermicelli salad - all were so amazing & tasty!!!
Since then it's all I think about, every time a friend or my partner want something to do, I always put Kim Khanh at the forefront and pray they agree with me!
Love it. Excellent. Ordered:-
Chicken Thai Fried rice
Satay Chicken
Vermicelli combination
Soft Shell Crab
Salt and pepper squid
One of my fav places to eat.
Excellent place. Very basic inside, street style type food, really cheap, lots of it & high quality.
A regular joint for us, Highly recommended .
Cheap and Scrumptious. We've been coming to Kim Khanh for years. Hong the current owner is a real sweetie and very accommodating. Do, the legendary waiter formerly from Cam Ranh, brightens the place with his animated antics and is always doing his best to please customers. The other staff could benefit from being as friendly as he is. The food is tasty and portions are very generous. My son loves the crispy skin chicken and so do most kids that we've brought to Kim Khanh. It's infinitely better than KFC! I love the fish gravy soup, the pho, duck soup, deep fried flounder, fish hot pot, and soft shell crab to name a few. The decor is kitsch and cheerful, with plastic crocodiles, fish tanks, dangling mobiles and a cheeky kitty who prowls outside. I hope they never change it! We are big eaters and usually leave with our bellies bursting for about $10 a head. What's not to love!?
If its 5 stars you want you've come to the wrong place but if its authentic Vietnamese food that taste great with an unbeatable value for money, then you've found it! Friendly service too!
Been going here for probely 15 years or so since i was really young. and the food is amazing even after the owners change i love it. go there once a week with the fam and we literally get treated like royalty. my niece and nephew even got shirts from sydney when the owners went. overall this place is cheap and really good. a classic chinese resturant.
Favorite place to eat out ever! Not only cheap but absolutely lovely food. The vermicelli salad, crispy squid and roll your own rice paper rolls are our favorites. Best place for poor uni students.
Kim khanh is very cheap and is very yummy so I really
Really
Love it
New fav!! Cheap, simple and delicious. The decor is atrocious but the overall experience is a hoot. Who thought dining in someone's garage would be so enjoyable.
Good ol' Vietnamese Restaurant!. This place has been open for over 20 years (maybe even 30+!) and has changed hands a number of times since I started going with my parents as a kid. I absolutely love it though! I've had this place recommended to me by a number of Vietnamese Australians, only to surprise them when they find out that I already know how good it is!
The food is always good, the service is quick, efficent and the waiters and owners are always really friendly. The setting is really quaint, with glass panels displaying a huge (and a tad old) underwater diarama at the back of the restaurant, and pretty simple table cloths, chairs and tables, the place has a genuine Vietnamese ambience. If you want to get real Vietnamese food just ask the waiters for their recommendations, they're always good! They also have Chinese food here, and it's always good too. Great place for a family dinner, dinner with friends, or just a casual date. Highly recommended!!!
Visited on the way home, as they were open late. Had a lovely and flavourful pho, and tasty stuffed chicken wings. Iced coffee was the fuel we needed to drive home. And great service. Will look forward to our next visit.
Really good food! Friendly staff. Great find! I highly recommend this place when you have late night craving!
Kim Khanh is the BEST restaurant for Chinese and Vietnamese food 5/5 stars!
The customer service is outstanding, always cater to your needs. I have never had a bad experience here. Very hospitable and welcoming. Quality food, you get what you pay for. Plentiful servings too, always full afterward.
The best Pho in Brisbane!
The sliced chicken Pho Noodle Soup is perfection. Even in a takeaway it still tastes fresh and they give you the broth in seperate container so it is much easier to put together at home. Their vegetarian spring rolls are huge! Taste amazing and are always crispy! The sweet and sour chicken just genuinely tastes good. You know you’re getting quality ingredients.
Popped over for lunch as it was close to my friend's place n saw great reviews. The decoration is old skool. I find that to be super cool. It brings you back in time to the "good old days". The owner said the chef was Chinese.
Ordered stir fry chicken thick rice noodles and Sze chuan beef. The noodle dish had the wok fire aka wok hei. Which is very important in such a dish and it hit the spot and reminds me what the food back in singapore. The beef dish was stir fried in spicy bean paste sauce. Didn't have the signature Sze chuan pepper bite. Had a good spice level which I enjoyed in a home cooked meal.
The portions are generous and the damage was around $30 for both dishes.
This is easily the best Vietnamese restaurant in Brisbane, if not the best Asian Restaurant. We eat out a lot and love Asian cuisine and this one never fails, the food is delicious and service is prompt and the owners are so friendly.
Great food excellent service super friendly staff. Absolutely huge range of food to order.
