We ordered a bunch of dishes to reminisce about our holiday in Vietnam during a time we obviously cannot go on holidays. We especially wanted to find a green papaya salad and Mien Tay had one and it was delicious, the pancakes were also very nice. Spring rolls are a nice starter as you will find in other places and the special fried rice was good and tasty. Stir fried duck wasn't our favourite as didn't think it would come in a broth with ginger and spring onion but somehow expected it to be crispier. Still we were so very happy with the food, especially the green papaya salads.

Delicious! It's quite busy so you might have to wait. We had pork ribs and squid to start and they were great. The squid was the best dish. For mains we had beef pancakes that were the best ones I ever had, and then we tried prawns with lemongrass. Perhaps too much lemongrass for me but still nice. The beef came with a great sauce as well.
Note: it’s cash only (there are a couple of ATMs on the hill towards Clapham junction station). We really liked this place. The service was quick and friendly. It feels like an authentic Vietnamese restaurant and the furniture (especially the cute tables) really aid that. The Traditional Crispy Pancake with Prawns & Pork was delicious (and huge! Definitely enough to share between 2). I had the Vietnamese clay pot curry with chicken which was really flavourful and rich. My wife had the beef brisket pho which was insanely delicious too. The broth was so clean and flavourful and the beef brisket so tender.
This is a great restaurant in London to visit if you love Vietnamese food at the right price point. My friend and I ordered the summer rolls for starters and they hit the spot. The mains were lovely and went down a treat. Staff were nice but they didn't have any clean glasses just for tap water as they had a big function that day but eventually they had clean ones for us.
Finally found satisfying pho!! Both chicken and beef were great. Reasonably priced too. Spring rolls were also tasty. Fast and good service. Cash only for eat in. Menu has good allergen information.
