Tay Do Cafe

Top notch food, top notch service.. Atmosphere so so, but that's what one has to forgo if one wants a nice hidden gem Vietnamese food in London at a price not risking a hole in your wallet. Best time to come during afternoons where crowd is non-existence (still baffles me to date). Overall, one of my favourite Vietnamese restaurants in London.

Went here on a whim and no regrets. The restaurant is fairly large and the people running it are very friendly. Food arrived quickly and the portions are large. I had the shaking beef while my dining companions ordered pho and the Vietnamese pancake. We also ordered a papaya salad to share. The papaya salad was refreshing and the veggies nice and crisp. The shaking beef had a really yummy sauce. I wish the beef was just slightly more tender. The char on it was delicious and the sauce was great with the rice on the side. I look forward to coming back here and trying more on the menu!

Kingsland Road defo the place for viet food. The environment was nice and the price is so damn cheap. Feels like we are back to 2019. I always suggest my friend to try out this place. Just because they are amazing. Pho was 11 and the spring roll was 6.50 so authentic. Still the same favor when I was there 4 years ago.

Best restaurant on this street.!! If your on Kingsland road, I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to try authentic Vietnamese food. Their menu is extensive and the staff are very friendly. The service of the food was quick and the young waitress named Anna was very polite and lovely. She made sure to accommodate us even while the restaurant was very busy. The restaurant is very clean and tidy. This place has a very homely feel with a bright and traditional Vietnamese decor. This is my go to place whenever I want to introduce Vietnamese food to my friends. I definitely recommend the Vietnamese drip coffee but on this occasion as the weather was hot I had the lemonade which quenched my thirst nicely. The food was fresh and the presentation was amazing. I ordered the number 51 which was vermicelli with grilled pork, pickled carrots & radish with a spring roll and Vietnamese dipping sauce and my friend ordered the flat noodles with Beef. The food was not greasy and the taste was delicious. They also have another branch across the road which caters for a larger number of people which is great to know if you have a future celebration. Their menu also have images too so you can have visual of what the meal would look like. Once again I left completely full and cannot praise this place enough. Thank you for a great experience Tay do team (:
