01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Hue-style beef noodle soup, Bún Bò Huế, is a hearty choice. Diners have described bowls generously filled with toppings, and some praise the flavour of the broth and its gentle level of heat. One visitor would have preferred more tender meat, but still enjoyed the noodle dish. It’s a satisfying option for anyone drawn to a generously topped bowl.

For beef pho, you can choose how the beef is cooked. Phở Bò Tái is served medium-rare, while Phở Bò Chín is well-done; both cost 1,080 yen. One diner who ordered the medium-rare pho recalls adding chilli and acidity to its gently flavoured broth. Another visitor praised the rich broth and tender beef, and enjoyed it with coconut coffee. After your meal, try Cafe Cốt Dừa, a coconut cream coffee (550 yen). The menu also offers Cafe Nâu Đá, iced Vietnamese coffee with milk (400 yen), and Cafe Đen Đá, served black (360 yen), so you can choose between a sweeter or more refreshing cup.

If you’d rather skip soup, Hanoi-style grilled pork noodle dishes Bún Nội and Bún Chả Hà Nội are each 1,180 yen. Bún Đậu Mắm Tôm, made with fried tofu, rice vermicelli and shrimp paste, costs the same. One diner said the aroma of the shrimp paste reminded them of home, while another felt the flavour might not suit everyone. It’s a dish to consider if you’re in the mood to try something distinctive.

A diner who ordered a grilled pork sandwich that wasn’t listed on the menu said it was offered as a special sandwich. Another visitor mentions both pho and bánh mì, making the sandwich an option if you fancy something other than noodles. They also enjoyed milk tea with coconut milk and egg cream; the menu lists Trà Sữa Kem Trứng Dừa Nướng (600 yen).

You can eat in or take your food away. One visitor found the dining area small and not well suited to lingering, so the restaurant may work well for a quick meal or takeaway. Listed noodle dishes cost between 1,080 and 1,180 yen.
