A Hidden Gem in Zetland: Lokha Delivers Exquisite Vietnamese Cuisine with Exceptional Service
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Lokha, a Vietnamese restaurant tucked away in Zetland, and I must say, it was an experience that exceeded all expectations. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality by the incredibly kind owner and staff.
The owner's passion for Vietnamese cuisine was evident in every aspect of Lokha. Their commitment to delivering an exceptional dining experience was truly remarkable. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that every customer felt welcomed and taken care of, creating an inviting atmosphere that made me feel like a part of their culinary family.
Now, let's talk about the food. Lokha offers an exquisite selection of traditional Vietnamese dishes, and I was particularly impressed by their bahn mi and pho. The bahn mi, with its perfectly crispy yet fluffy baguette and an array of flavorful fillings, was an absolute delight. Each bite was bursting with freshness, balanced flavors, and a harmonious blend of textures.
And oh, the pho! It was a bowl of pure comfort and culinary artistry. The rich and aromatic broth, filled with tender slices of beef or chicken, accompanied by an assortment of fresh herbs and condiments, created a symphony of flavors that transported me straight to the streets of Vietnam. The depth and complexity of the pho broth at Lokha truly showcased the chef's expertise and dedication to authenticity.
What impressed me even more was the potential that Lokha holds. The commitment to quality ingredients, the attention to detail in every dish, and the evident passion of the owner and staff all point to a bright future. It's clear that Lokha has the potential to become a culinary destination, not just for Zetland but for all lovers of Vietnamese cuisine in the wider area.
In conclusion, Lokha is a hidden gem that deserves recognition. From the moment you step inside, you're welcomed into a world of impeccable service, warm hospitality, and flavors that will transport you to the heart of Vietnam. With their delectable bahn mi and soul-nourishing pho, Lokha has established itself as a must-visit destination for those seeking an authentic and unforgettable Vietnamese...
Read moreCame here last week to try the famous Bahn mi’s and I was kinda disappointed. The crispy tofu one was flavourful yes, however, the tofu was not crispy, and the filling had so much juice/water (not sure of what) and the bread was not that fresh and made soggy. The lemongrass beef was also flavourful but again, the bread wasn’t fresh. The iced matchas were so milky white and had chai in it- they should advertise that on the menu. It’s clear they don’t use high quality matcha and probably use culinary grade and add heaps of milk and chai to maybe mask the flavour and profit more? Please don’t have iced matcha on your menu if you’re not going to get the proportions right and are just putting it on the menu cause everyone else is.
Please note I also came here today at 2:15pm to try again and write an honest review but was closed despite advertising their hours 8am-3pm both on google and their website. If your hours are different please update them in your website and google! Really wanted to give it another go so...
