Can't recommend enough- everything about this place was fantastic. The food was flavorful and interesting, and the staff were so attentive and lovely. I will be back.
Dined with 2 of my girlfriends tonight and the food was delicious! Especially loved the tempura eggplant starter and the beef cheek curry. Excellent roti too. Good size portions, excellent service (they gave us extra space for my pram and were very accommodating of my baby) and very good value. I’ll definitely be back.

First dinner after ease restrictions
Mekong share plate.
grilled scallop using fresh coconut, bacon oil and yuzu chilli oil. Spiced chicken satay: using house made chilli with peanut sauce. Grilled tumeric catfish: well combine between betel leaf and onion, lime zest and roasted peanuts. Seafood crepes: mungbean, coconut and chilli anchovy sauce and well combine with miso sauce with chilli for dipping.
Burmese King Prawns.
Caremelized onion with tamarind, balsamic with watercress salad with crumbed prawns.
Crab meat fried rice.
crab meat with chilli, onion cute widely so texture is nice, mushroom and shreded eggs so well combined and taste has sweet and sour.
Chargrilled cambodian pork ribs.
traditional strong slaw and the pork ribs meat inside is not well combined ingredient so it gets strong smell of pork meat.. the ribs is soft and is not enough grilled.
Best chicken satay entree I’ve ever tasted in my life!! Sauce was amazing and meat was moist. Wow!
Steamed whole fish has delicious citrus sauce and fish was fresh.
Was disappointed in duck pancake entree cuz duck pieces were tiny and dry. The veggies that came with it was fresh and tasty. Loved the addition of pineapple. Since duck was too small, I would not order again.
Large prawn main (3 prawn pieces) tasted great and was fresh. Only down side was for some reason, i thought it was going to b grilled, but it was actually deep fried tempura.....not sure if I forgot to read description or if it wasn’t specified in menu? But it did taste great with great sauce! So if u r ok with fried then it’s a go.
Food is high quality and delicious. Service as good.
Very good atmosphere for almost all occasions. Food was presented beautiful and tasted delicious. Service was wonderful. The time between the entree and mains was a little bit long though but not a big issue.
Very beautiful food. Not sure if 100% authentic but the chef is really talented. We like especially the soft shell crab masala which had just the right amount of chilli hit, the clams poached in beer (the bacon adds a nice salty aftertaste) and the amok curry. Highly recommended
Really delicious food - barramundi (mouthwatering) and Amok curry; good wines; friendly, helpful staff. Am working out how soon I can go again.
Arrived at 6pm on a Wednesday evening to a fairly empty restaurant, and no front of house staff. After a few minutes someone emerged and we were led to a table by the window. Service was excellent for the rest of the meal.
Food was reasonably priced and excellent quality- arrived promptly. Not too spicy and full of Asian flavours. We ordered the share platter for entree (you get a bit of everything!), soft shell crab and duck curries for mains, and the lychee mousse and soy milk panna cotta for dessert. Seafood was cooked very well. Would recommend the scallops, seafood crepes (filled with coconut and prawns...not much seafood variety though), soft shell crab masala and confit duck curry. One serving of rice was enough for the two of us. Their tamarind sauce (came with the crepes) was also great!
Dessert were also good - not super outstanding but very interesting, with lovely flavours. Overall an excellent meal - would come back again!
Nice fusion food joint. The barrumundi was really good, it was served with a tad sour lime sauce which goes so well with the tender fish fillets. And that duck curry, absolutely love it! We also tried the crepe which was not our favourite.
I went to Mekong not long after it opened. I thought it was very impressive indeed. Then friends booked for a staff Christmas party and weren’t as impressed, so it’s taken me a while to get back. A friend, who’s moved overseas to Spain, hasn’t seen this new street of restaurants and I thought it would be fun to show him, and I thought Mekong would be a good choice, and offer food that he wouldn’t be able to easily find in Madrid.
When I saw how fancy the food looked, I was a bit worried that it would be more catered to the western palette. But my family loved it! My mum really enjoyed the eggplant and pork floss tempura, and we found many of the dishes delightfully spicy. The ingredients were fresh, and while the price is steeper than what we're used to, it's a good treat for special occasions, and we had a pretty filling meal.
We'd love to come back and try the other items!
You get the best of both worlds. With a stroll through spice alley, you get to embrace the atmosphere. But with Mekong, you get a quiet high-quality dining experience right in the middle of spice alley. Loved the food, drinks and friendly staff. Would highly recommend this place.
