Ha Noi Pho — Restaurant in Great Britain

Concerned about the open jars on the tables. Chilli fermented veg and garlic lemon grass in a white vinegar. Just on the table lose fitting tops people just taking tops of sniffing the contents. The food wasn't the best in fact I ordered duck and got beef 4 small pieces in what was supposed to be a creamy sauce it was more like a green yellow watery soup. The other dish was duck hot pan again not the best food. We ordered two cokes and had to ask twice for them to be brought over not even chilled. We also ordered chicken wings and spring rolls I think come out of the microwave oven. The place was bland and very cold also found when trying to order the food we couldn't get a description so had to order by numbers on the menu and not alot of food in the menu. Word of warning be careful with the stairs if you have problems with mobility. We did notice it was Vietnamese apart from us. Looking at the pictures on the reviews wow I wish our food could of looked like that. Date and price for our meal 22/12/2024 price was £52.96 5 fried chicken wings £8.99 three spring rolls £8.99 A number 53 £13.99 should of been duck got beef.A number 58 duck hot pan £15.99....

Firstly I want to say thanks to the previous reviews swaying my decision to eat here.

I ordered a beef pho with various cuts, and it was amazing! The first and most important thing I do is taste the soup. It was flavourful but light/not greasy, so I knew it was going to go well. The meat was tender and plentiful, in an already well portioned bowl of comfort. To my surprise, there was a tub of pickled garlic & chilli on my table, which is something that you can eat with pho. It was a delicious accompaniment and it really brought a smile to my face reminding me of nem, a certain Vietnamese snack wrapped in pink paper (if you know, you know).

I've had pho from London & California, and with no hesitation, this is one of the best I've had which is something I wasn't expecting to say.

I found out that they opened quite recently (in September) and really want them to do well, so I'm leaving my honest opinion hoping that I can return again when I next...

A wasted day is a crime, a wasted hungover day is a tragedy. After several false starts at making the most of a hangover, my partner and I decided to bring our low flying headaches and sensitivity to noise to this establishment, our first Vietnamese dining experience since a harrowing encounter with norovirus caused us to steer clear. What a return this was!

Every moment felt fated towards the realisation of our hungover potential and blissful reunion with Vietnamese cuisine. From the theatre of the stairway entrance, to our dedicated and friendly servers, the lively atmosphere of the decor and diners, all crowned by the prompt (but not worryingly so) arrival of our food. Dishes selected from a menu with just the right ratio of familiar faces and new friends warmly greeted. If you are looking for a new spot to get a quick pho, in search of newness, or wondering where best to take a culinary naïf, this place can cater...
