Viet Rose — Restaurant in Melbourne

I had a wonderful experience at Viet Rose in Fitzroy — this place is such a gem for fresh, flavourful Vietnamese food. I ordered the vegetarian spring rolls and the vermicelli vegetarian bowl, and both dishes were absolutely delicious. plenty of seating inside.

The spring rolls were golden, crisp, and packed with flavour — not oily at all, and served with a light dipping sauce that complemented them perfectly. The vermicelli bowl was a standout: fresh salad, soft vermicelli noodles, crunchy peanuts, all topped with a light, fragrant dressing.

I'm not leaving a 5 star review, because you get a 5% discount. I'm leaving a review because this restaurant is a goodie.

Deep fried fish was crispy and tasty, in fact even the Lemon Lime & Bitters was great and made with love. Definitely will be coming back this restaurant...

Accommodated us last minute on a very busy night. I chose the pho and asked for it without onion which made it a bit tasteless if I’m honest. (My onion allergy is usually only if I eat it raw…. I should’ve gotten them to leave it in and then I fished it out at the table. My fault…..). Spring rolls were yum.

Staff were super busy but still had the time to come and answer questions at the table and hold the door for us on the way out. Thank you.

The only thing was the sound of the room. So so loud. You need a few soft panels in the room to absorb the sound. We could barely...
