Feedback
Reviews of Vnam praise cocktails, generous portions and attentive staff, but note occasional blandness, inconsistent freshness and mixed cleanliness/complaint handling.
The staff is delightful and the food is delicious.
Food and drink were delicious. 2 for £12 on selected cocktails. I recommend the sharing platter.
We were looking forward to this based on the pictures and rating but I’m sad to say that it was no good. Had Vietnamese many times but this one was just bland and tasteless. The vegetables that came with all the dishes didn’t feel fresh. The service was fine. The decor is alright and probably serves its purpose if you are only in for some drinks. Otherwise the place could be a bit cleaner and smarter.
Wonderful food and friendly staff.
Good place for quick and easy food. Really good servings and flavoursome but needed quite a bit of hoisin to give it any kick. Brilliant and attentive service and quick without trying to rush us out.
