There are hundreds of pho restaurants in Sydney and this is definitely one of the worst lāve ever had. It was so bad that I even didnāt take a picture. Please refer to other peopleās pictures.
For its price the soup was too thin and the portion too small. The fancy soup pot is only for the $20+ wagyu beef pho. I ordered one but unfortunately the soup was lukewarm and it could barely cook the soy sprouts.
Everything was self-service so donāt expect any services. You need to take the menu, water, tissues and sauces all by yourself at the cashier and order there too.
The food variety on the menu is incredibly lacking - you can only get pho plus some fried small eats. It is basically fast food concept but the pricing is definitely not. If you want to have pho or Vietnamese food, there are an abundance of other options in the city or Chinatown. With the same price youāll get much better quality food.
Talking of all the good reviews, they have promotions that writing good reviews gets...

Look, this Pho isn't going to win any awards for depth of flavor or aroma, but it's hot, beefy, and pretty darn fine for mall-soup. Bonus points for being able to score one immediately. Came with a side of bean sprouts, greenery, and lemon - limes are in short supply in Sydney it seems. Self serve water, sauces, etc. Complimentary tissues adorn each table.
The $9.80 special is perfectly decent and cheap pick you up food. Literally costs less than a Boba tea a block away. Plus you probably already spent most of your paycheck at the Pop Mart dispenser on the first floor. I wish more malls had fare this solid at this...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWe weren't super hungry and saw the $9.80 special for a small bowl of beef pho. There was four of us and we also ordered a serving of prawn toast.
Surprisingly, the pho was really decent, good amount of noodles and meat, definitely didn't feel like it was one of those gimmick deals.
It also came with the usual sprouts and lemons on the side.
The prawn toast was great too, not over fried great flavour.
The service from the owner (with the blonde hair) was excellent, friendly and enthusiastic and especially welcoming.
I'd definitely come back next time!
Our total was $49.50.
Reminder, the $9.80 pho requires...
