I haven’t been here for a while so I called in to grab a crispy pork banh mi. The service here is excellent, always quick and cheerful.
My crispy pork banh mi, was excellent. The bun was crunchy, and the pork cooked perfectly. There was a bit of salad included but the pork was the winner.
This place is so good I could eat these all day hahaha.

This is a busy place and it was time to call in. The see was good and efficient. This place runs like clockwork so the waiting times are minimal. I’ve been here a couple of times now and on not occasions I’ve really enjoyed my time.
For this review I had a BBQ Pork Bahn Mi which was absolutely delicious. The bun was warmed up, something that I’ve not had before and it made a BIG difference. The bun was crunchy, and tasty.
The pork was marinated and extremely moist and tasty, just perfect. The salad was fresh and crunchy and this was a really enjoyable experience. Definitely worth a visit.
Melbourne CBD.Pho Nung serves up all your usual Vietnamese culprits (think rice paper rolls, pho etc) in a relaxed, highly casual setting. of the pork belly bao’s ($4.80) is a must. Think tender juicy pork topped with. mouth-watering crackling, which is then smothered with a generous amount of. their homemade chilli mayo and BBQ sauce.
Love the chicken pho! Portion was good, plenty of meat. Noodles were chewy - overall a very hearty meal. Banh mi was nice too, however the sauce was too sweet for us.
Will be back.

My friends brought me here for my birthday and the food here couldn't be any better! They served a few of our orders incorrectly, but quickly rectified it without any trouble. Will definitely come again!
Points for: good location, quick service, excellent banh mi
Dropped in for a lunchtime meatball banhmi.
The tiger roll was warm and exceptionally crunchy on the surface, but soft on the inside. The meatball wasn't the nemnuong sausage variety, nor was it the typical minced pork in tomato sauce. It was slightly dense, and the pork mince tasted like it was mixed in with a touch of fermented fish. Don't let that put you off, it's a thoroughly delicious meatball.
I order the spicy beef noodle soup. The beef is good and the soup is so great!! Highly recommend it. For me, it is not too spicy so I think is suitable for most of the people. However, we wait for more than 30mints to get our dish which is a bit disappointed. It seems like it is Saturday there are only two staff working in the restaurant.
This spot does some awesome rice paper rolls. Mine were made to order and were massive, featuring chunks of fried tofu and lots of veg. Two made a great snack that was filling yet light and fresh. Space is in a corporate building and isn't super comfortable, but pretty large and light filled.
Food - We had the beef stew and also BBQ pork vermicelli. I absolutely love the beef stew as it provides a hearty meal especially during cold days. I always pick rice to go with it and you have the option of rice, bread or vermicelli to go with it. The BBQ pork vermicelli was also very delicious, perfect for lunch.
Service - We waited for awhile but it was understandable as it was during lunchtime and the place was packed. After seeing another customer next to our table who arrived later than us getting their food first (same order), I stopped and asked the waitress to check our order for us. A couple of minutes later, our food arrived.
Ambience - I like their interior decor and seat placement. I think they do try to maximise seating space without making it feel too crowded.
Overall, it was a good experience!

I have visited Pho Nung about 5 times in the last 1.5 years, so its definite time now to give my proper review, seeing my most recent visit to Uncle's was disappointing I really needed a proper Banh Mi fix even though I already had a Banh Mi on the weekend in Richmond hahaha, I love it.
Pho Nung and Heartbaker Bun Me are my favourite places to go in the city for Banh Mi. If anyone knows any other amazing places in the city please do let me know.
🔆LOCATION🔆
Pho Nung Restaurant is located on Little Collins Street between William and King Street.
It is quite a decent size restaurant, very modern and looks like an open food court lay out. There are plenty of seatings and people just eat and leave so will surely be seating available. This place does get quite busy during peak lunch hour on the weekdays (they're closed on weekends) and it is a good sign when a place is packed.
🔆SERVICE🔆
Friendly staff at Pho Nung. They are soo fast and efficient its great. Tables are cleaned promptly, food is delivered fast. When you leave the waiters would step aside and say thank you/bye! So polite.

🔆VERDICT🔆
The Crispy Pork Bahn Mi is my favourite. The bread roll is very crispy with a nice crunch yet not too hard. The Crispy Pork is really tender and juicy. I wish they put more pate onto the bread as I can hardly taste it but otherwise very tasty and the size of the Banh Mi is really decent portion! Yum!
The BBQ Pork and BBQ Chicken Bun is really good, simple but tasty and its to do with the meat and the marinate. Its fresh and tender which is important. There is never enough fish sauce so always ask for extra, hehe!
Goi Cuo is great! Although I can make it myself at home, there are times we you just want to eat it. My favourite is the Lemongrass beef and the BBQ Chicken.

Light, Fresh & VERY reasonably priced for an evening meal.
Good vibes - with good music, real plants and a nice backdrop for photos.
Very good pho anh banh mi.
Bbh isnt really bbh, because vermicelli noodles instead of bbh noodles, and has rare sliced beef in bbh?! But rhe soup was nice, saving grace therr.
The combo menu under the item menu doesnt go together, although they looked like they go together, i was really confused at first.
Overall really nice food and service though.
Had their BBQ chicken banh mi. It was pretty good, no complaints at all. Actually a lot less dry than most banh mi tend to be! The staff were very friendly as well. Definitely recommend this place, reasonable prices and good food.
Very pleasant staff! This spot makes the best banh mi in Melbourne. Love their fresh and crunchy buns and their crispy pork is exquisite! I eat there every week now. Definitely recommend.
