Lemongrass — Restaurant in Warsaw

4th Oct 2025 (Polish below) I ordered Nam Bo and spring rolls. The Nam Bo was great — thinly sliced beef with rice vermicelli and fresh, refreshing vegetables worked perfectly with the nuoc cham sauce, which was packed separately. I was also nicely informed by the restaurant staff how to pour the sauce over the dish, which I found very professional.

This was the first Vietnamese-Thai restaurant in Poland that managed to recreate the authentic taste of bo bun boeuf I remember and missed from my time living in Paris.

If I had to find something to change, it would be the amount of coriander/cilantro/rau mui (and herbs in general) or herbs in the Nam Bo. It was less than I usually add myself — though, as a big coriander/cilantro/rau mui and this type of herbs fan generally (when I prepare this dish myself, I usually add a lot of standard coriander/cilantro, as well as plenty of Vietnamese coriander/cilantro/rau ram/phak phai and culantro/long-leaf Chinese coriander/ngò gai ofc dependently on availability in place i stay), I still found the overall composition very well balanced (especially when the price is considered).

The spring rolls and Nam Bo are listed as separate items, while many people consider Nam Bo to include chopped spring rolls inside — but I know this version is not common in Poland, and the menu clearly explains the separation so there is no confussion about it. Here, the spring rolls were served separately, packed with some cut lettuce — which slightly removes the experience of wrapping the spring rolls in whole fresh leaves. Still, I really enjoyed the overall quality of both dishes.

I highly recommend this place — it offers authentic flavors, great service, and a level of viet-thai cuisine that’s hard to find elsewhere in Warsaw. The chef/cook clearly knows and truly feels Thai-Vietnamese cuisine. I am sure I am going to visit this restaurant again.

4.10.2025 Z zamówionych dwóch dań Nam Bo i sajgonek jestem zadowolony i polecam. Ogólnie Nam Bo było bardzo dobrze przygotowane, było lekkie, sycące, ale odświeżające, tak jak je zapamiętałem, gdy pierwszy raz jadłem to danie w Paryżu. Sałata do sajgonek nie była w formie liści do zawijania sajgonek w nie a w formie ziołowej kombinacji sałaty i warzyw. Ja akurat sajgonkę jedną pokroiłem nożyczkami do Nam Bo, a druga do sałatki, i smakowało bardzo dobrze, więc nie było to jakoś problematyczne. Sos do obu dań odpowiednio kwaśno-slodko-lekko-pikantny, i w przypadku Nam Bo w dużej ilości jak dla mnie, ale się z tego cieszę, bo nie muszę przygotowywać własnego, gdy sam coś podawanego z tym sosem gotuje. Obsługa bardzo miła i profesjonalna, np. przy zamówieniu na wynos informuje nienachalnie, jak warto połączyć sos z resztą dania, by one nim nasiąkło. Co więcej, potrafiła bez problemu zidentyfikować, które danie szukam mimo różnic nomenklatury. Widać, że kucharz dobrze kojarzy smaki i potrafi dobrze przygotować dania. Bardzo polecam, sam będę czasem odwiedzać i na pewno spróbuję również innych dań, na pewno menu i dotychczasowe doświadczenie wygląda...

I had an absolutely terrible experience at this place. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was tense and unwelcoming. The woman in charge was extremely unprofessional, rude, and had no idea how to communicate properly. The man working alongside her was just as bad—completely unqualified and lacking even the most basic customer service skills.

What made it even worse was their attitude. They were both openly hostile, making the entire experience uncomfortable. Instead of helping or even behaving politely, they were yelling, which ruined the mood completely. It felt like they had no interest in their work or the people they were supposed to assist.

I would never return here, and I strongly advise others to stay away unless they want their day ruined by unprofessional and...

13th Dec 2024 We initially looked at the reviews before we visited. Reviews were really dated and did not really helped much. Still We went ahead just because my husband wanted Thai food. We ordered the Green curry with chicken and Yellow curry with chicken, comes with rice for PLN 30 each. Both curries tasted really good, good portion for the curry and rice. Food was served really quickly and serving hot. Pleasantly surprised by the flavour and we finished everything. The restaurant is decorated simply though a little dated

14th Dec 2024 We went back again. This time we ordered the basil chicken and tom yum goong with shrimp. Basil chicken looked good but didn't hit our expectation. The tom yum soup was good. Had the sour spicy flavour it's...
