Service was good, waitress could have brought more menus for our table of 3, we only had 1 of each menu - not a big deal, there were spares at the counter.

Food came out quick and hot. We all enjoyed our meals. Didn't rate the pork spring rolls.

They were out of sparkling water.

We ordered
Seafood combination ho fun
Spicy beef noodle soup
Lunch special Pork belly with tofu in a yummy savoury asian bbq sauce of some kind with steamed rice.

Well priced. good space.

I came on a weekday around 10:10am. We were the only customers at that time. We ordered about 4 dishes. The first one arrived around 10:20am. But then, there was no more food coming after 20 mins. During the time, stir-fry was served to another table of customers.

So, I asked the staff about my order, who was so busy setting up the tables. And, he response was "Ah yes". So I took it as he forgot about our orders because only then he had some bamboo steamers carried into the kitchen. He explained something in the kitchen wasn't working. I understand the start of opening hours is busy but it is not acceptable to pay no attention to your customers. When the food did arrive, they were not very hot.

Worst of all, after while, the male staff was trimming his fingernails before the bar! Keeping the fingernails short and tidy is nice but can't he pick a more appropriate spot to do it?

I will not recommend this place to anyone. In fact, please avoid this place.

New management operating as Pho An from Sunnybank took over this site a fortnight ago. The Menu is mostly Vietnamese Noodle and Rice dishes. We ordered the Beef Pho (Dac Biet) which was authentic and a generous serving. See the last photo!

The food portion is large and taste is really nice! We ordered some pho and Cantonese / HK style BBQ duck and pork, they are so yummy.

Easily the best pho in inala! We had the pho, bun bo hue and sizzling steak with bread. The broths were flavourful and warm. It was loaded with meat and service was very welcoming. I didnt expect such a stunning decor; it really brightens up the plaza. Would recommend!

The Chinese food was very good. Super delicious Tofu clay pot. It was mid priced , not the cheapest but not the most expensive either. Actually the food was delicious. The very young waiter had absolutely no knowledge of the dishes. But it was worth it. Highly recommended.
