Thanks for the meal!
Ordered the vietnamaes pancake.
Though not the best I have had, this place is definately the Gold standard in Australia currently for the pancakes. Crispy outer shell with plenty of vegetables dipped fish sauce makes this a regular treat when in the area
This restaurant is renowned for it's 'Banh Xeo', and we were not disappointed. The 'crepe' was delicious, with fat free pork, flavoursome shrimp (shell on), and tender squid. The generous saving will delight the most bulging of eyes, and stomachs.
We also had the Banh Cuon - it is also nice, but I felt there was a little too gelatinous/stretchy; contrastingly, the Banh Beo was slightly powdery.
The Banh Cong was delicious - making me think that this place has a fantastic frying wok.
The service was also very quick and very friendly.
Overall - Banh Xeo is the order of the day.
I had ordered a Chicken Bánh Xèo (vietnamese pancake) and it was a massive blur of vivid yellow and green!! The wait wasn't too long itself.
The pancake itself was crispy and light and was beautiful with the abundance of beansprout, sprigs of onion and chunks of chicken. The plate was complimented with a forest of fresh, green leafy vegetables which you could wrap your pancake in and dip in a sauce.
It was an amazing dish, and for a decent price too!!
Yummy Vietnamese food .we order two of their signature dishes . Services was good . Price is fair . Of course is casual dinning ! Food is very fresh!
I have been here a few times. The best is the huge rice crepe filled with seafood and pork. They also give you a lot of vegetable to go with the crepe. One of my favorite is the steamed rice roll with assorted ham. The rice roll texture is very smooth.
Fresh food, friendly service, decent sized servings, and hands down the crunchiest Vietnamese crepes/rice pancakes in town!! Bánh xèo, literally translates to "sizzling cake", is one of the nicest Vietnamese dishes that not a lot of restaurants make. It's because there's a secret to making such a thin yet super crispy batter, and this places nails it! They make huge bánh xèo here!!
The only downside is the limited seating available in the restaurant. Really wish there was more seating because it sure gets packed at lunch time!

Ordering the banh xeo is a given. It'll take about ten minutes. The arrival of the banquet-sized plate usually heralds a frantic game of table tetris.
There are a couple of variations of filling you can choose but we tend to stick with the standard pork and prawn combo, embedded into the crepe during the cooking process. The local's way to eat this is to tear off a wedge of banh xeo and then wrap it up in lettuce with as much mint, perilla and mustard leaf as you please. Dunk it in the bowl of nuoc cham fish sauce dressing provided and resign yourself to getting messy.
Vietnamese food has a definite spot in my heart with its light flavour and freshness. Fresh herbs and vegetables are essential to many Vietnamese dishes and mostly served as condiments. Last weekend Mr. Nomnom and I decided to visit Bankstown as it's been ages since the last time we went there.. With Banh Cuon (Steamed Rice Roll) set in our mind, we know there's no other place we'd rather be than Thy Vietnamese Eatery..
Bun Dac Biet aka Combination Vermicelli Bowl.. It comes with bbq pork, ham, spring roll and bbq prawn paste stick.. Tender, fresh, crunchy, juicy all in one big mouthful!
