Vietnam House

Was here on a Saturday night, staff are very friendly and always smiling, great atmosphere! place has a homely feel to it. I think the social combination broken rice is one of the better ones in Canberra and the soup is delicious and compliments the dish well!! My partner got the vermicelli bowl who also enjoyed it very much. The salt and pepper fried tofu was probably a little disappointing but apart from that the restaurant is still definitely worth a visit if you are in the mood for Vietnamese food

Pho was quite good, nice quantity of beef. Soup was a touch on the sweet side but still nice. Vermicelli salad was fresh, pork was tasty and good quantity. Would have preferred greener lettuce as opposed to iceberg but minor point. Price was very reasonable and service was excellent. Overall will return.

Food was nice and staff were friendly until it came time to pay the bill. Now, I wasn’t aware we were still living in 1996. I thought in 2022 when you went out with a group of 6 people you could easily split the bill, but no, I was mistaken. Nothing worse than not having seen a bunch of people for 12 months then having to awkwardly work out who’s going to foot the entire bill on their credit card while everyone else scrambles for cash. Listen, there is absolutely no good reason you cannot split the bill. What if we had all come in and sat on separate tables?

We came across this restaurant on visiting Woden Plaza after almost 6 years. So many changes and new restaurants along Keltie St. We were pleased to see variety choices of Beef Phõ, which my husband and elder son immediately ordered Phõ Tai Sat and Phõ Dac Biet. I decided to try out their Bun Bo Hué, while my younger boy ordered the special combination broken rice with pork chop. We also ordered a serve of spring rolls. Service was ok though could be improved with a smile. Phõ and broken rice tasted good tho my bun bo hue was a bit too oily - I felt I was drinking oil rather than soup. For the size of bowls and price, I was disappointed that meat slices and bits were insufficient. I have eaten at other restaurants and normally find I am unable to finish my noodles and meat, but it was the other way around at Viet Nam House. Still, a reasonably good variety of Vietnamese dishes to try out if you are at Woden and crave some hot soupy broth.
