    I normally eat at the Vietnamese restaurants further up the high street, but decided to try here instead! Staff were lovely and food is amazing. Generous portions too. Will definitely be back.

    Authentic viet dishes with great taste. Try the seafood pho, it’s spicy so it will warm you up. Also veg curry has a very special texture. Must try.

    Make your own summer rolls! Not the cheapest in Pho Mike but good food and wonderful experience!

    Amazing food, egg noodles with chilli chicken is worth getting with jasmine green tea.

    Nice food, but you wait for ages even if there's not a lot of people in the restaurant. Also waitresses might not know what did you order. Double check before you eat someone's lunch 😅

    One of the tastiest meals I've had on the strip. Quick, cheap and really good. Limited "wow"-factor, but well worth it if you just want a good meal.

    I want to like it but I can't as the food just isn't up to the standard of the other places in the area. You are better off queuing at one of the others.
