5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 May 2012 NEW

Very local restaurant specialized in Bun Bo (so you won't have other choice). We ordred also some Nem Chua as side dishes, very good too. It is homemade and very flavoured, and not to spicy. I recommend this place for the tourist who look for traditionnal vietnamese food. More

They make Bun Bo in half a minute. Bun Bo consist of nooddles with beef, mint leaves, coriander and a mix of fried peanuts and nuts on top. All fried of witha bit of beef stock. Delicious, quick and all for 50.000 Dongs. I've been there twice and will be there again soon. More

The first time I went there was more than ten years ago and since then I have been there numerous times as I have lived and worked on and off in Vietnam for years. They always deliver. This is a one dish place, typical for many restaurants in Vietnam. The quality of the food is always good, especially for this... More

all the good stuff others have said are true. It's a great overall experience, swear we had our meal in front of us in less than 20 secs on our 2nd trip. Very good Bun Bo, I enjoy this better than Pho which you can get anywhere. 2 meals, large bottle of Bia Ha Noi, 1 tin of sprite, all... More

Standing outside this restaurant - I was tempted not to going in. The recommendation from various guide sources (books & internet) rated it highly so I said, "be a devil and give it a go." Went in sat down at a long stainless steel tables, ordered, two minutes later the bun bo arrived. Delicious, delicious, delicious all for 50k Vnd... More

It was near to my hotel, so I thought I'll give it a try for convenience. The food was good, not the best I've tasted. Price was 50k Vnd a bowl, not the cheapest but not excessive. Tips: a couple of doors down the road southbound is a place you can get fresh sugar cain drink for 12k Vnd without... More

We went here after reading about it in the guidebook unfortunetly having had this dish many times around Vietnam this was average. The bowl was quite large costing $3 as most places are $2 that was good but the taste was lacking. Too much pork fat the beef very stringy and tough and the veges were wilted. Try the place... More

Nice experience This restaurant was recommended by brother in law and sister on their visit, and sure enough you'll find top reviews in Trip Advisor and the like. It's easy to pass by as it's just a little local place on the street, where they serve beef Bun Bo. Just sit down and wait fro 2 minutes. I was served... More

Food was served instantly (literally 8 seconds after I sat down), beer followed soon after, you don't pick what you eat, you just eat. Delicious street food style but slightly less "dodgy", you eat at long communal tables inside off the street. The kitchen is on the street. Delicious beef with noodles, fresh herbs, fried shallots and peanuts. Total cost... More
