Tay Do Restaurant — Restaurant in London

Right so again, hate to give a negative review (literally just walking around currently, trying to find an honest bowl of pho). Place (massive) was empty except for 1 table - should have been my first clue. I read the menu posted outside and it indicated the price of pho (being about £9.50-10, even after a pen had been taken to it - that’s fine, prices have gone up recently - still seemed reasonable). Came in, sat down, looked at the menus, guess what - £11-12. Talked to the waiter about it who said sorry and claimed “manager/owner not here”. What a joke - it’s about the principle, not the £1-2.

I have been a customer of this family run restaurant for the past 8 years in which the authenticity and a taste of home always keeps me and my family coming back for more!

A very clean restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere, Michael is a awesome host and will take care of you 100% 👍

Everything is fresh and made to order, you won’t be disappointed!

I would recommend the 113 Tay Do’s Rice Special, Number 9 Steamed spring rolls with Pork (Prawns and Tofu alternatives available) - 64. Chinese Style Crispy Egg noodles with Mixed Meat (Prawns/Seafood/ duck/chicken/Beef/Tofu alternatives available) followed with a refreshing Vietnamese Ice Coffee 🇻🇳.

Overall, I would say the restaurant is good if you are looking for a quick bowl of pho in the area, with some dishes being better than others. Perhaps with a few tweaks to the dishes and some adjustments to the level of sweetness in their drinks, it could be a better...
