Oh yeah!!! This place is pretty authentic. Had a lot of pho in my time and this place does a pretty legit bowl of rare beef noodle soup. I think I fell in love mainly because of the generous amount of spring onion and the hefty good punch of pepper on the top. If you're not so good with pepper I recommend that you ask for less. Slightly disappointed I hadn't dined sooner, yet delighted I have yet to eat my way around the menu!
Went for dinner on Friday night. There were only a couple of tables occupied. Its not a fancy looking restaurant but one of the best Vietnamese restaurants ive tried. Had cooked beef noodle soup and It was really yummy. Me and my friend enjoyed. Highly recommended.
Looking for that amazing, authentic, little Asian ‘hidden gem’? Little Hanoi might not look like much from the outside, but the food is absolutely incredible 😋😍🤯 mind-BLOWN! Super delicious broth with the clarity of every herb tantalising your taste buds. Order “pho bo”. Ask for the picked garlic and don’t be afraid to add it (including the juices) to the soup for that extra zing! Best beef noodle soup I’ve ever had (given I have not yet visited Vietnam). I make it my personal endeavour to visit little Hanoi every time I’m in Wellington.
With a full, happy stomach, take a stroll across the road and find a special copy of your favourite novel at Pegasus books just down the lane.
Absolutely delicious. Very friendly staff. All the food that we have was really good. Must try Pho Noodle soup, Spring Roll and the stir fried noodle
Recently tried this place via delivereasy. Super easy transaction, even the driver was a champ. We had summer rolls, chicken vermicelli noodles and chicken Pho. All prounced delicious. !!
Been going here for a while now!
Such a cute little place, love going with a small or a big group.
Food is fast and yum, super lovely customer service.
Great BYO spot as well, its our go to BYO among the uni crew.
Fantastic food at great prices .. nothing we ordered was not fantastic atmosphere a bit lacking but food is worth writing my first review ever 😀
Stopped for lunch and neither of us could resist the pho. I had beef, my husband had the chicken. We both enjoyed the bowls and found the serves generous enough that we couldn't finish the broth. Completed the meal with a Vietnamese coffee. Delicious.
We came down Left bank heading towards Oriental Kingdom with our bottle of wine but decided to come here. We had the rice paper rolls for entree which were amazing, the highlight being the satay sauce that comes with it. For mains we had the lemongrass chicken and duck and bamboo noodle soup. Both had a good flavours and well worth the smaller price tag. Good friendly service. Not a bad experience at all 😊
This little hidden Vietnamese restaurant is hidden down the depths of Left Bank. It’s a great stop for takeaways or a quick affordable pretty tasty meal. The decor is really non-existent – just some tables and chairs in a room, with a TV going in the corner which I find really odd.
The food does pack a lot of flavour though, and almost all the meals are gluten free which is always a plus in my books. I always love getting the beef spring roll on rice noodles, which is a very refreshing meal and is served with a lovely sauce to tie it all together. Their pho’s are nice enough but there are other Vietnamese restaurants that provide ones with a little more depth of flavour. The prices are incredibly reasonable for the amount you receive though.

This is my favourite place to get Asian takeaways in central Wellington. Hidden in left bank so many wouldn't know to come here. Really love their chicken cashew nut with vegetable and also noodle soups. Good pricing, all meals around $13. The meals here are always very flavoursome and fresh.
Lovely little restaurant hidden in the back corner of left bank. Got the rare beef pho noodle soup for lunch and absolutely loved it! Meat cooked perfectly and came out in under 10 minutes. My friend got the chicken pad thai which was delicious and very fulling, had to get a doggy bag to take it home. Would definitely come back here.
Little Hanoi, such a great little place that reminds so much of Vietnam! Delicious food, great service! Such a good little gem down the end of alley!
Such good Vietnamese - always feels like we've had a fresh and healthy meal when we eat here, and the service is always really good. On busy nights we've left our phone number and got them to ring us when a table became available so we could have a pint at the pub beforehand! The salmon spring rolls are amazing and so are the pork on rice noodles. One of our locals.
Love it. The family who runs this place are lovely. the food is delicious. Come here every Monday for lunch. The soup is mean better pho than the ones I had all over Vietnam. Fresh herbs and sprouts to mix in too. Fresh food and its cheap.
A little hidden gem tucked away at the end of leftbank on Cuba St. We were very impressed with the authentic taste of Vietnam. Great food, great price and a very pleasant atmosphere. So all round one of the best Vietnames places in Wellington without a doubt. Definately will be back.
Went for a byo dinner on Saturday, restaurant is clean, bright and the staff were friendly and knew the menu well.
The food was very fresh and tastes great and is also very good value for money. Two recommendations would be the fresh spring rolls - made to order! and the rare beef pho bo Vietnamese noodle soup (only $12.50). The pho was a large serving complete with fresh herbs and came with sides of sambal sauce, sliced red chillies and mungbeans.
The place is very new so was only half full but I think as it becomes more well known will begin to have a good atmosphere inside. We will definitely be back
Little Hanoi is one of left-bank's best kept secrets. I think that Oriental and Satay Kingdom are much more well known, however this place is only 20 metres away or so and also offers great prices and, in my opinion, even better food! My friend and I had plate upon plate of their rice paper rolls. They were simply delicious and made fresh to order, and at $8 for a plate of 3 big ones you can't go wrong! The prawn ones are my favourite, though I would happily eat any. I also tried the fried chicken entree, which again was reasonably priced and delectable. If you are sick of the food at Oriental Kingdom I would highly recommend venturing a bit further along left-bank to this place!
