Been back multiple times and always ordered something different, I am never disappointed! YUMMY!!! Great service, great food and great price. Highly recommend the fresh spring rolls, wontons, vermicelli bowls and fried rice noodles with pork. If cheap, delicious food is what you're after and you don't need fancy decor then this is perfect ����

This place is a go to for my boyfriend and I when we don’t want to cook. We have dined in and had take away. We once ordered takeout to collect an hour and a half later as we had something to go to and picked it up on our way home!
Clean venue with friendly staff who are happy to answer any questions about any dishes. Food is fresh and very tasty. They have an extensive menu with many dishes and I recommend ordering a couple to share

This is a place that my girlfriend and I have contemplated a long before coming in. The menu didn’t look that amazing and minimum price for a main dish was $15 so it hasn’t been on our food to try list. But today we finally gave it a try and it is definitely a good restaurant to dine in. The restaurant looks very clean and tidy, so it’s very comfortable. They provided some very nice tea as well while waiting for our food. Some very excellent customer services, greeted us nicely and were very polite.

Food was amazing and it tasted much better than it looks on the menu. The wonton seafood soup noodle was the best seller on its menu and it definitely lived up to its name. The broth is flavorful and not too salty. The amount of ingredients is incredible, all sorts of seafood including muscle, prawn, fish cake, and others like wonton, pork, veges. It is a very generous portion for a $15 dish. Definitely worth it to try it out as it tasted very nice.

We also ordered a grilled chicken and pork chop on rice. It came with an egg and a soup on the side, and portion size is very decent. The chicken looked dried at first but when we tried it, it was very tender and the flavor was plentiful. The pork chop was seasoned really well too both tasted nice but the pork chop was a bit hard, so would recommend having the grilled chicken only as to having them both one dish.

Overall, recommend to try this place out!

Came here and ordered their pork chop rice noodle.  The pho was good temperature and the noodles was very good.  The pork chop was also quite tasty and I thought it was strange at first when they give us spring onion and ginger sauce to complement with the meat.  It turned out that it was quite good with the pork.  It was good overall, nice quantity and good value.

Probably wanted the 3.5 option, but this was too good with service to rate lower. I’d rate the new Zomato low though. Unlike zomato these guys were easy to find, quick and explained what was in the food. I found the food a bit bland, but I’m no Vietnamese expert. The meat was beautifully textured, my vegetables could have been a bit more warm. Too much contrast with fried chicken.
Gluten free was easy but you have to ask, as nothing is obviously gluten free. The fried chicken was potatoe flour which was a nice change.
We are likely to return.

Good raw beef pho
The broth is better than Hansan's but not as good as Try it out. However, this place has better cuts of raw beef than Try it out. The staff were polite, the place is cosy and food came quite quickly. Would come here again

The style of this restaurant is very “food court” like and doesn’t boast a great dining environment. On the other hand the service and food quality make up for it. I ordered the stir fried vegetable on rice, which was quite enjoyable.

This is definitely not an authentic Vietnamese restaurant which you can immediately tell by looking at the menu. Nonetheless the food is reasonably tasty and a big plus is that the portion is huge (definitely bigger when you dine in compared to take away) and my family all left feeling extremely full. We also really enjoyed the iced coffee. The service was also great. Overall a decent cheap and filling eat if you don’t care about authenticity.

Really enjoyed this cute, family owned Vietnamese restaurant. The service here is the best I've had at any Vietnamese restaurant, it definitely beats Hansan. The wontons are amazing and have a much tastier filling than most takeaways do.

I had the vegetarian fried noodle dish and it came out better than I expected. The flavoring and quantity of the dish was good and really satisfying. Only thing I think would've been better was to have it in a bowl instead of a plate as trying to scoop up some of the sauce was difficult. Other than that, overall experience was great

Cheap and delicious vietnamese food. It's so good to find a place close to home, that serves vietnamese food for an affordable price. Family came and had a good time. A lot of food was given for the price. Would happily come back again.

Came here last night to try some pho and left feeling super pho
Ordered the fried spring rolls and wontons to start off with. The spring rolls are probably the best I've ever had and the sauce it came with was delicious. The wontons was another favourite..the filling was so yum and juicy.
For mains we ordered the lemon grass chicken and pork on rice. Absolutely yum. The chicken was my fave because it was cooked to perfection
I also ordered their chicken noodle with wontons. With such a big bowel I could barely devour it. The
broth was really delicious but please don't be extra like me and put in the crushed chilli they have provided. Mine ended up so spicy I was choking every time I took a sip.
Overall I really enjoyed eating here and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. You can tell they really look after their customers.

Delicious food, awesome staff, fast service. We are regulars! Only down mark is the decor of the place but you can't expect anything fancy when it's cheap and cheerful.
We love this place!

Stopped by for lunch. The menu had a fair selection of different foods, some of which seemed like a combination of Chinese and Vietnamese.

I had the fried rice pork chops. The fried rice was alright but the pork chop was quite different from the pork chops of other Vietnamese restaurants. The flavour was different and it doesn't have the same crispness and juiciness. The had a mussel stuffed pork entree which I thought was nice. Their soups were a bit bland though. It took about 20 minutes to get our food with a couple of takeaways before us.

Price wise, mostly under $20.

Large portions and very filling for a cold day. Also got free wontons when i went. The best thing for me is the chicken pho. Simple and filling! A great place to go for a meal and also worth its price.

I'm giving this place a 4.0 because i reckon they got the best broth here! I went here with my friends and they all loved it. The portions are quite big so most of them couldn't finish it. My favourite is chicken rice noodle.

Pros:
- Big portions.
- Friendly staff.
- Delicious vietnamese noodle.
- Good value for money.
- One top place for soup!

Cons:
- Larger dishes can be a little expensive.
- Average ambience.

Came here for a simple, cheap,filling meal and I can say I was not let down.
I ordered the Chicken rice noodle soup and the portion was huge! I ended up with a lot of noodles left behind (which I feel bad for but I was so bloated!). I also like how they provide coriander without asking, which I haven't actually seen many Pho restaurants do. Taste was also very good!
I feel like it could do with a little more meat content, but I'm not a huge meat eater so I was relatively satisfied. Also ordered a side of Deep fried spring rolls and this was quite good! Although please be aware the restaurant is Korean influenced so it is not authentic - but very good and filling especially for the price! Keen to come back and have more!

Newly opened Vietnamese restaurant in east Auck. Their noodle soups are clean, and come boiling hot which is nice. I also like how they provide coriander without having to ask. Wish there was more meat toppings though.
I had heard really good things about this place from others especially their service, that's why I went to try, but unfortunately they were quite busy and there was nothing good about their service..

Came here for lunch since I was craving Vietnamese and this is a newly opened restaurant. The spring rolls were amazing, freshly fried and wasn't too oily. The pho tasted great and was full of flavour, I could barely finish half of the noodles as they were very generous with the portions. Service is good and the place is nice and clean, and the food is such good value too (~$10 for a massive bowl of noodles). Would come back again if I'm in the area :)

clean place with friendly stuff.
this place is more korean and Vietnamese combine style. soup has more clean taste? less fatty?
we ordered chicken vermicelli, seafood, pork chop, combination rice noodle all with special noodle which is more glutinous? more chewy? anyway for me i like this better. I like it how the soup is really hot specially in this cold weather. bit disappointed with the toppings too little pork chop :( like how they give you corriender with the bean sprout :) vermicelli was very disappointed :( chicken was nice ..
its only bean sprout lot of it, lettuce and bit of carrot and radish pickel.. they ask if we would like coffee at the end which is nice. oh and the spring rolls were very delicious! love the taste !

Not the most authentic Vietnamese food. BUT still good quality food! For the tiny price you pay, this place is great because they give you ALOT of food.

Great place to come and fill your tummy without breaking the bank.

Sorry for not taking a picture but quite a spacious restaurant with friendly waiters. However, when I went for lunch at 1pm, most of the tables were empty but with leftover food and uncleaned tables. So they had to clean it on the spot for us. Good range of dishes on menu, I had beef rice noodles ($10) and strongly recommend. I LOVE IT :D the soup is amazing! The beef was nice and tender! And noodles was cooked nicely and a good portion! They give u sprouts as a side to put in, which I liked. Will probably return during the cold winter for a nice bowl of warm, yummy noodle + soup!!!!

Tried this place out hoping for some good authentic Vietnamese food but unfortunately I didn't really get it. We got the wonton noodle soup and the pork vermicille. We got the wonton soup first and had to wait a little longer for my pork vermicille. The wontons were a nice surprise. The wontons had nice flavour and the soup was tasty.

The pork vermicille was a disappointment. The pork was actually honey roast pork that you can probably just buy at a normal asian roast shop with some vermicille and salad here and there. I did like the Korean pickled radish they put in the salad. The flavour all together wasn't too bad but I was hoping for some stirfry pork with Vietnamese flavours.

Overall, this place doesn't seem to carry a lot of Vietnamese flavours and is Korean and Chinese influenced instead. Flavours aren't too bad though. Might come back to try other things on the menu.

One of my favorite places in Auckland for lunch and dinner. Their hot pot is perfect size for small groups of people. Soup paste is nice. It's sweet and sour. They have dessert occasionally - black rice yogost, salted egg sponge cake and sugar cane juice. Ask the staff on the day for these.

I came by for lunch and it was quite empty. I had the choice of table. The menu was fairly large and had interesting items in it. I ordered the soft shell crab and the pork and chicken chop on rice. The soft shell crab was really nice but quite expensive. The curry sauce that came with it was really tasty. I was served with just a pork chop rice. It pork chop was nice and flavourful and I had wanted to also taste the chicken one. I didn't really notice it since I was engrossed with the crab for a bit. I probably could have called them over but it wasn't that bad of a mistake, even though the place was quite empty. I was charged correctly though. I quite like the food but it is a bit priced, which could've been due to the crab. Service was ok but the wrong order was a bit annoying. Edit: They have snails which were interesting. They did require digging it out with toothpicks.

Tried Pho Pho Vietnamese Restaurant for the first time. Rang and reserved a table beforehand and I am glad I did as the restaurant was full shortly after I arrived. Delicious Pho with an excellent tasting soup base. The kids meals were good value for money and the kids said it was yummy 😋. I'll definitely come back and try out other dishes.

Visited with modest expectations, but left extremely satisfied with the meal. The restaurant isn't very spacious, and while the parking lot is sizeable, it can be challenging to find a spot during the evening hours. The staff is friendly, and the food is both well-prepared and tasty. However, the portion size of the rice noodles is a bit small. Despite that, I plan to visit occasionally with family. Highly recommended!
