Nam Restaurant — Restaurant in Wollongong City Council

Nam has been around for years. Going back well over 15 years

Over the years the food hasn't changed much. The pho has their own unique flavour. It's not a bad unique, but not the usual flavour from most pho places.

The satay chicken is amazing !! Rich and flavoursome, according to the mrs it's her favourite of all time.

One thing i must mention as it has happened for years and years is that the owner tends to be much more friendlier to western customers. Just last weekend (oct 16) we observed him being friendly, starting convo with other tables, when it came to our table not a word was spoken to us. Even when we were paying for the bill he barely gave us a smile. This has happening for over the 15 years we've been going there. Not a biggy but just something that...

I’ve been going to Nam my entire life and it has ruined food for me. Nothing will ever compare to it. I’m giving 5 stars only because I can’t give 10.

The owner and staff are wonderful, the service is quick, and the restaurant is comfortable, clean and cozy. The satay chicken is incredible and would be my last meal if I were to die. I can’t put into words how good Nam is. Every meal I’ve had here (many) has been delicious and it is consistently so, something I have never experienced anywhere else. Every time everything tastes exactly the same as every other time I’ve ordered it, an actual 11/10.

Nam is a local institution and I hope it never closes, if it does, it will...

I tried this place based off reviews of other people. I tried a lunch satay chicken special with rice and lemon king prawns. The lunch special with huge, thick and creamy satay with a hint of heat. One of the best satays I’ve had in the area. The pawns were large king pawns, beautifully arranged with just the right amount of lemon sauce over them. But I didn’t enjoy the batter which was thick and undercooked - the chef said to avoid cooking the prawn. I wouldn’t normally mind but the flavour overpowered the mouthful. But, definitely coming back here again...
