Andaqua Vietnamese Restaurant

Took a punt on Valentine’s Day of all days and visited Thuy at her newly branded restaurant. Amaze! As second gen Vietnamese we weren’t food conosserurs (cant even spell that damn word) but we sure enjoyed the quality across a variety of dishes. Albeit a small shop it’s fine for dates and even one or two groups (there was 8 ppl at the other table opp). Vibe was nice. Privacy was there. Beautiful mural sets the scene. Anyway back to the food: the bun thit nuong (vermicelli with bbq pork patties) amaze. The pho cuong (rice noodle rolls) amaze. Hanoi friend rice was generous even for two ppl and with added fish sauce was perfectly balanced. Only shame was we were so full we couldn’t fit in the Banh xeo (ironically what they’re famous for! -will be back). Thuy was the head-chef for the previous owners and is still there today under the new name. David her staff is an excellent conversationalist while the food is being prepped.

Cozy little place. We really liked the quail! Decent servings. Both of the mains was nice. Staff was polite and recommended dishes for us. The dessert wasn't so great, but overall, it was pretty good. Would recommend and eat here again. Do be aware that the toilet is upstairs through a narrow staircase.

Stumbled upon this Vietnamese restaurant by accident, and I am really glad we did! The food was amazing, really fresh and flavorsome. The owner was so lovely and friendly and clearly takes a lot of pride in what he does. The savory pancake was a highlight! Definitely head here when you want beautiful Vietnamese.

Beautiful food and excellent value. This place does really great Vietnamese food, and not the stock standard stuff but interesting and varied dishes - every dish is distinctive. Service is friendly and efficient, with good advice about particular dishes and quantities too. Looking forward to our next visit.

We had a big group function upstairs and couldn't have been happier. We had the banquet menu and the food was plentiful and delicious. They made substitutions for the vegetarians and kept our BYO wine chilled all night. Staff were friendly and food was staggered over the evening to ensure we had plenty of time, and we were not rushed at all. Would highly recommend to anyone planning a dinner for a big group on a budget.

What a great place. Fresh authentic Vietnamese food in cosy and friendly surroundings. I was delighted to find bun cha on the menu as it is one of my favourite dishes. I’ve eaten Vietnamese crispy pancakes all over Vietnam but the one I ate at Andaqua topped most of them. The perfect ratio between filling and pancake... and so crispy. Thank you for a great experience. I will be back.

How this place has such a high rating is beyond me. My better half and i came to eat dinner, there were only three sets of customers. The waiter was lovely, took our wine orders and food and never came but kept telling us sorry for the wait for the mext 30 minutes. He didnt even bring us the wine. After 20 minutes he came over to confirm our order which was wrong. I cant review the food because we left to eat elsewhere.

Not great. Two of the dishes were not available so our choices were narrowed down. Service was a bit slow and although I tried to book I was told it was fine but when we got there we ended up alone upstairs and kind of forgotten. Food was ok but nothing amazing so no I wouldn't go back. The guy was polite and apologetic though but I don't get why it's rated so highly.
