Atmosphere lively, food incredible however my meal was forgotten so family had ate by the time I got mine, I asked for a drink of 3 different servers and still didnt recieve one I approciate it was busy and its not the end of the world however i was left hungry and thirsty not the best service for us, especially observing other tables getting drinks and top notch service. Really disappointed as heard amazing things may have been a one off but I wont be in a rush to return. Food was delicious and we’re able to take away left overseas.

Good food, good atmosphere. Caters to gluten free and coeliac.
Much of their food is naturally gf. However, for extra comfort around cross contamination being minimised it would have been nice if they specifically mentioned which if the dishes was for the coeliac person when delivering the dish

✨ A quiet delight in the heart of the city.
The rare and cooked beef pho was beautifully tender, with a sweet, comforting broth — almost like a taste of Vietnam.
I might have wished for a hint of lime and a few more herbs, but everything else was simply lovely.
The grilled pork and prawn rolls were generous and unforgettable.
A truly peaceful and happy afternoon.

Absolutely incredible food and fantastic flavours, words really don’t do any justice to just how good this is! Excellent selection of meals and starters, and very reasonably priced. We will definitely be returning, our new favourite restaurant, arguably of all time!!!

Great spot to grab some pho! It was busy and there and service was slow but the water was very apologetic and a super friendly guy. The pho was flavorful and had all the proper ingredients. I appreciated the liveliness of the place. Would come back!

Such a lovely place Went for lunch and we split both the ‘Ultimate Pork Bahn Mi’ and the ‘ Sticky Char Siu Pork Banh Mi’ it was so delicious and exactly what we needed. Staff were super nice. Will definitely be back again at some point to try other things on the menu!

Ngon Cafe is a compact restaurant with about 12–13 tables. When i arrived, there was just one front-of-house staff member, so it took a while before our order was taken. There was also a bit of a gap in menu knowledge the server had to go back to the kitchen to confirm details with the chef.

Wok-Fried Morning Glory with Garlic Absolutely amazing. Fresh, vibrant, and full of flavour. Easily the highlight of the meal.
Grilled Salt & Chilli King Prawns Very disappointing. The prawns were extremely dry, under-seasoned, and didn’t seem fresh.
Special Fried Rice Requested without beef, but the first serving came with it. They replaced it, but the dish itself tasted like a standard fried rice, with nothing particularly “special” about it.
As for the ambience, it’s okay, but during summer the lack of fans turns the space into a very warm room, which can be uncomfortable.
Overall: A decent experience the morning glory was a standout, but there’s room for improvement in both service and consistency in the kitchen.

Stopped in for solo lunch and it was fab. They had a lunch menu and Bánh Mì (which I’ll get next time.
They ran out of spring rolls so I had Pak Choi and then Rare Beef Pho and the coffee. All delicious and good sizing – I couldn’t finish it all!
