Well, of course I would be seeking out Pho, even if I'm on the Gold Coast. Tried to come here a few days before but was turned away due to reservations. If it were me, a place of this small size would only do walk-ins. Nevertheless, I managed to come early for dinner on Sunday.
Mixed Entree nothing to write home about. Bog standard affair. Combination Pho Bo, or rather the Beef Pho Special with beef balls was ordered, along with a Pho Ga (Chicken) for my dining partner.
Condiments were scarce, I had to especially ask for fresh chilli but at least it was produced on request. Rare beef and beef balls were also in short supply, but the stock was flavoursome and delicious. A lack of all the other wonderful ingredients that can and should go into Pho was unfortunate, like tendon and tripe as an option.
Up shot is, if you're looking for Pho on the Gold Coast proper this is a decent option, but not the best...
Read moreA year after the last time ☺️ I had Chicken Pho and Pork spring rolls and Vietnamese coffee 🥰 Spring rolls were nice with the sauce 🤩 Almost everywhere comes with the normal sweet chilli 😅 Mmm😌 Pho was a very hearty gentle nice flavour 😍 beautiful soup😋 And super tender chicken 😚 The noodle was half clear?!😳 It's a little bit take time to drip coffee 😉 It tasted deep thick and creamy🥳 Not so sweet😄👍🏻 I liked it😊 They are very affordable price still🥰 I'm sure that I come back for more try other dishes 🥳🥳🥳
I’ve been here for a few years now. I had Spicy beef noodle noodle (Bun Bo Hue) $13.9 and Pork ball skewers $6.9. They are still cheaper than the other place 👍🏻 I love the spicy citrus flavor soup and silky noodle 😍 Pork ball tasted good for beer 😆🍻 Waitress was not so friendly, a little bit disappointing 😥 I’d love to try some more dishes...

Omely may look quite ordinary from the outside, but the food here has never disappointed me. Every dish feels authentic and made with care. I always love their Vietnamese pancake and “make your own roll” — they’re so fresh and fun to eat.
Today I tried the chicken pho and it was amazing — a lovely, comforting bowl that made me feel so much better while I’m unwell. My partner had the crispy noodles with chicken and vegetables, which was also delicious.
We also ordered the hot Vietnamese coffee — it was nice and strong, though I wish the serving size was a little bigger.
I highly recommend trying the Vietnamese pancake and salads too. Omely is definitely a great spot to visit for anyone who loves authentic...
