Melbourne friends : ) If you're in Fitzroy and looking for a great place to eat even better food, check this restaurant out! The service is amazing - really welcoming and friendly and prompt. The food will make your moth water and you'll definitly be coming back for more. I try and get down here at least once every week or two. The vibe of this room adds to the service and taffy food! Worth your time and money : )

Whenever a restaurant tried to do cuisine from more than one country you wonder how that will go; its a good honest Asian restaurant and does save a trip to Richmond for a casual outing (but it is a little more expensive).

Their Vietnamese options definitely seem more authentic than the other options, and lots of vegan choices. I thought the Bun was excellent, the chicken that was served was most impressive as was the serving size. The satay was quite spicy, and I’m pretty sure the prawn dumplings weren’t made in house.

I’d be happy to come back for sure.

Some of the best salt and pepper squid I've ever tasted, perfect texture and flavors. Try the fried rice and ask for some of their spicy incredible chili oil.

90 ish percent vegan restaurant! One of the best restaurants for pre dinner entrees, so many vegan/vegetarian options and not only that, they are not all rolls, there are a variety of entrees and mains such as bao!

Why have I never noticed this "hidden gem" that lives very noticeably on Brunswick Street? It sure has some tasty vegan laksa (the mock chicken, not so tasty and not so vegan) and fun decor.

Easy 4 here. Great ambience, friendly service, delicious food. Ideal for a social meal and a variety of options including dishes from outside of Vietnam. Would make this a regular spot of I was in Melbourne more 😉

Tempura mushroom oyster bao! A most delicious morsel that will keep me coming back again and again.
The pho is also good, but for all that is good and (p)holy... please serve pho with a laksa spoon, how else can I enjoy the delicious broth!!

Fantastic experience!
Tasty food, good service, friendly owner, and inexpensive. What a gem!

What I had :

1. Rice Paper Roll 10/10
Gosh! So good probably one of the best place that serve rice paper roll in Melbourne.

2. House Special Spring Roll 9/10
So crispy and perfect for sharing, make sure eat that with the lettuce and the sauce they gave you.

3. Drunken Chicken 9/10
Though the name is not really interesting but this is seriously good!! The chicken is crispy ans so yumm, eat them with Sriracha. Will definitely go back for this!

4. Vermicelli Beef with Lemongrass 10/10
I am falling in love with Vietnamese vermicelli!! Especially these, so light yet so fulfilling and the taste is just right and balance.

The service here is very attentive and friendly. The ambience is very homey and cozy. I will definitely go back again to try more of their menu. They do have an extensive vegan menu as well.

Everything we got was delicious (especially recommend the salt and pepper squid!) and the owner was very friendly and checked in to make sure everything was okay, even though he was quite busy. The food was also served quickly, impressive considering they didn’t have much staff. We will definitely be going back!

This place is excellent, serving simple, wholesome and tasty meals at a great-value price. This is our fave Vietnamese place in Fitzroy that does both vegan and non-vegan food well. The service is so friendly here, and the standout dish for us is easily the salt and pepper tofu—not just because it’s delicious (which it most certainly is!), but also because the chef waits till we arrive to cook the tofu so it’s still crispy when we get it home. 😙👌 Hot tip: eat the salt and pepper tofu with a serve of coconut rice. Taste explosion, perfect salty/sweet/sour combo. The vegan menu has plenty of options, so my wife always has heaps to choose from, and there’s plenty of stuff that we both love to share. I highly recommend you support this fantastic little local: in a year’s time, I reckon it will be one of those places that everyone raves about for its delicious and unpretentious offerings, so get in now while it’s still a local secret. No photos: too busy eating it all as soon as we got home! 😅

Wonderful food, a skilled fusion of South East Asian cuisines, super affordable and miraculously produced by just this one friendly, hard working guy in a really cute restaurant down the end of Brunswick Street‘s hip-strip. Highly recommended. Give this little business some much deserved love.

Pho was absolutely delicious. And so were the dumplings. They look like the fried money bags dumplings but steamed instead. Will definitely be back to try other things on the menu.
