The staff were fabulous and looked after use extremely well. But I felt the food at this branch wasn’t as good as the London branch we regularly visit. The chicken and prawns were over cooked in my noodle dish and my partner’s spicy curry which he usually orders in London was knock your socks off hot. Pork spring rolls were good. We left just before closing and the ladies loos definitely needed some attention only one loo was usable!

Absolutely delicious food, great staff all round. Gave 4 for ambience as wait staff offered us a seat next to a family with children and we preferred a quieter area. Many more diners were seated in that busy area as this was offered first. Some preferred to be in the quieter area but had to request it. The children were not badly behaved but once they'd eaten started climbing over their dad. Please offer diners where to sit and don't assume everyone wants to be all in one area. I appreciate this happens in a lot of restaurants, I just don't get it!

Jordon was great. Very helpful and attentive. We all had a wonderful family meal. We had someone in our party who has a gluten allergy and there was so much choice for her - which isn't the norm as many places she does not have much choice on what dishes she can eat. Also, so lovely to see alternative soft drinks other than the usual cola etc. The Nojito was stunning... so much so I had 2. Thank you :)

Friendly and timely service, and Vietnamese food cooked to a high standard. We went on a rather bleak rainy winter Friday evening when one might expect standards to drop, items not to be available etc. But no everything was really good.

Tasty food; over large portions (especially starter/sides); friendly helpful, staff; very loud musak and sat too close to others despite place being nearly empty.
