This was my first time at Saigon Summer and I came across it whilst walking down Glebe Point Rd looking for healthy lunch options.
I ordered the sugarcane prawn vermicelli bowl and a Viet iced coffee. The sugarcane prawn was great. Fresh homemade prawn mince wrapped around sugar cane pieces. Better than some Viet places that serve you the frozen variety and then charge you a bomb. This was the real deal. The shallot oil drizzled on top of my vermicelli bowl was also really good, full of flavour and zing. Overall enjoyed the meal and it hit the spot.
The iced Viet coffee was also really good. Not too sweet with the condensed milk and coffee balance just right. Again it hit the spot.
Service was friendly and attentive too.

$21 got me a regular sized beef pho and a Vietnamese coffee.

Reasonable 5-7 min wait as they prepped an order before me + my order. Staff on shift were chill which was nice cause I went in with anxiety currently running at full force.

Read moreA lovely little eatery, great atmosphere, fantastic food and quick service! The staff were super friendly - quick to say hello, genuinely warm and vibrant interactions.
Despite being busy when we arrived, wait time to order wasn't very long, and neither was the wait for food. Got the special Crispy pork bahn mi and the lemongrass chicken bahn mi.
Excellent flavours, good serve of fresh vegetables/fillings and the bread was a perfect combination of crisp on the outside, but warm and soft on the inside. No risk of stabbing your mouth on the first bite!
Very reasonable prices as well, would 100% go again. Highly recommend, well...
