Hoxton, Vietnamese Restaurant Guide

“Thoughtful” Vietnamese food is served at “fabulous prices for the generous portions” at this duo in Soho and Hoxton from Hieu Trung Bui, who has done much to popularise pho and other southeast Asian dishes in London over more than 20 years. That “plenty of Asian people eat there too” speaks for its “authentic” style.

“Some of the best Vietnamese food on Kingsland Road” is to be found at this “no-frills dining room” in Shoreditch – everything is “fresh and fragrant”: no wonder “they’re always so busy”.

2023 Review: This quartet of family-run restaurants have won a big reputation for their southwest Vietnamese dishes, including pho and their famed goat with galangal. They started out 15 years ago in Shoreditch before heading across the river to Battersea.
