First of all, I really do not like writing 1-star reviews as I would not like to come off as harsh. I tried to make it as constructive as possible.
The menu on Google is not correct. I also tried looking a menu up online but it's not available anywhere. I was expecting a beef "pho" noodle soup with 3 kinds of meats (slow cooked brisket, beef, and meatballs as stated on the Google photo menu). However the pho soup only came with 1 type of beef, which was chewy. The broth was also not as aromatic as other pho dishes I've had. The fried spring rolls were also very thin and not juicy/crispy at all.
The service was extremely slow. I was with a friend and we arrived first before 2 other guests arrived. There was only 1 server and 1 cook. The server seemed sweet but she did not inform my friend that she could not make the cocktail herself. It took us almost an hour to receive the cocktail and the dishes. It would have been better if we had been informed regarding lack of staff and waiting time.
Sadly it was a very disappointing experience. For the prices they charge, we feel like we were robbed. We were also charged €3,5 for tap water.. it was not Spa Blauw or anything like that. I regret not making pictures as I usually do. It's really a shame because this could've been a hit. The location, atmosphere, and concept had so...

As a born-Vietnamese, I couldn't tell apart the experience of sitting on a low stool chair, on the pavement of a random street in Hanoi, enjoying a hot bowl of Pho that has undergone 12 hours of slow cook and that bowl of Pho I had at Nassauke.
Also, this is an interesting story to tell. If you know Vietnamese cuisine, then you know how regional it is. This bowl of Pho I had was made by a Southern Vietnamese chef, but I, originally from the North, enjoyed it to the fullest.
With this, I even dare say that VCorner food transcends the, somewhat petty regionality of Vietnamese cuisine to embody a much bigger, national flavour profile commonly shared across the whole country. That is what makes this...
Read moreVery disappointed. I booked this place with high hopes but it was not worth the money at all.
First off, I booked this place on Monday and when we walked in on Wednesday at the given time, it was empty and they still had to prepare our table…
For a small size Pho they charge € 15 which is the high end of the price for a normal size pho… For 4 pieces of prawn mash on a lemongrass stick - 12 euro. At this point you are out 27 euro and you had soup and an appetizer.
Staff was also slow and not very welcoming given we were the only table there. They didn’t ask if we liked the food or wanted more drinks. Will not be coming back here, there’s better Vietnamese places...
