Sought out this place after returning from a Vietnam trip. While the price would make you cry if you’d just come back from traveling, the perfect mix of flavours, spice, and crusty roll make a trip there worth it.
In search of best quality Pho during winter time, I decided to come to this place after running errand.
Big bowl of soup cost you $13, and I think it's worth for you to try.
What I think of is this dish is a national dish in Vietnam, along with some fresh roll and banh mi, this shop claiming that family recipe that's been practice more than 100 years.
Meat are slice a little thick compare to another Vietnamese shop, which was ok to me.
Beef broth was rich and sweet, but addition of hoisin sauce and some chilli sauce makes this dish is very enjoyable.
Don't forget to squeeze lime on your broth to lift up the flavour

Modern Vietnamese street food.

The pork bahn mi (pork roll) was made with a crunchy bread roll, slices of carrot and cucumber, garnished with coriander, stuffed with juicy pork, and layered with crackling. This was a modern take on the old street style favourite. My favourite thing about this was rather than the thinly sliced up bits of pork you get on a standard pork bahn mi, this was stuffed with fresh coarsely cut pieces of 12 hour roasted pork.

Weapon of choice: Hands

Pro tip: Order double meat for $2.
Also, ask for a bit of fresh chili to add to your roll.

Barramundi Salad with X O Sauce was absolutely amazing. The Sauce is mind blowing. According to my colleague Bernard Wong : this place is actually improving unlike other places .
Probably the best bahn mi you can get. They've really taken the humble roll and jacked it up to a new level of awesomeness. If it wasn't for the price, I'd be here for lunch all the time
Lovely Vietnamese restaurant in Surry Hills, bottom end, near Elizabeth Street. It is very casual, almost takeaway style, but you can eat in. There's banh mi, Pho, and rice bowls. I got a rice bowl that came with salad, a fried egg and your choice of protein. I couldn't decide what to get so the lovely lady offered half pork and beef so I could decide what I liked best for next time. Beef was a lot more tender, but the pork crackle was amazing. Nice healthy meal. Very cheap food and staff were lovely.
Right in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Enmore and Surry Hills, you’ll find two Vietnamese street food cafes that go by the name of Great Aunty Three. Both are owned by Michael Le, a Sydney chef and fitness model, B and I recently had the pleasure of meeting. Michael was born in Vietnam and came to Australia when he was just eight months old. He comes from a family of foodies – his dad and grandmother both were chefs, and many of his uncles and aunties own restaurants and bakeries across Sydney. After spending ten years on the corporate ladder – and despite the hardships his family endured due to the strain caused by his father’s takeaway shop – Michael knew that opening a Vietnamese street food cafe that celebrated both the flavours of his heritage and his family recipes was exactly what he wanted to do. And so, in 2011 Great Aunty Three was born.
Great Aunty Three is one of our all time favourite cafes and their special seafood roll being one of our all time favourite rolls however it was not permanent. So today we opted to get their 'Vego' roll ($10) which consisted of tofu, tomato, cucumber, avocado and a slightly spicy dressing. The ingredients were all really refreshing combined together and it was an overall really great Vietnamese roll. We'll come back soon for their Pho and Rice Paper Rolls!
Walked past and the aroma was to die for! It led me right in! I ordered a Beef Pho and three rice paper rolls. The rolls were delicious, not cheap I may say but worth the try. Perhaps will only buy one next time if I'm REALLY hungry. The pho was very nice however the size was very small and the price was anything but. A good try however I will go elsewhere for Vietnamese, but again if I'm ever in Newtown!
It was clear to me, just from a quick glance, that this restaurant had the right concept for the right location. Right next to the immensely popular Chat Thai in what was once a grocery store that unusually sold Latin American ingredients, Great Aunty Three opened with an ironic, modern wink to Sydney, serving traditional Vietnamese street food, but with a modern twist.
