Com Viet in City of London, Westminster

Have visited and recommended Com Viet multiple times, however will not be returning after last night. One employee made very inappropriate weight and racial “jokes” targeting the females of the group. I asked for the bill so we could leave, and he told me to smile with my teeth. The other staff were great - just one employee made our family reunion dinner a weirdly uncomfortable experience.

Had a horrible experience at Com Viet this weekend with an incredibly rude waiter (was the one wearing a football jersey the evening shift of 18/05). First, the seat I was on in the booth kept moving around because it wasn’t properly fixed to the ground - the server who brought our bill called me fat because of this and said the seat ‘couldn’t take my weight’. He then proceeded to tell me this was a joke and that I couldn’t handle his humour. None of our group was laughing. After he dawdled around not saying anything productive, began assuming the race of our group and making rude comments towards us because of this. All of this was entirely uncalled for and unnecessary, will not be returning.

Very good experience in this Vietnamese restaurant. Lots of quality and hearty vegetarian options. I recommend!

Very nice Vietnamese restaurant, I enjoyed the vegan bon bu hue! Lots of vegetarian options, there's something for everyone, I recommend!

After a recent holiday in Vietnam we wanted to have a Vietnamese meal. The place is lovely, friendly service and good portions of amazing food. We will be back!

Lovely place and great food with lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Reasonable prices and lovely service. Absolutely recommend

Great food, lovely atmosphere, a true taste of Vietnam in London.

The best Vietnamese 👌 restaurant ever. The pho is unbelievable.

I have been traveling in Vietnam for quite some time and visiting Com Viet made me relive memories through flavours. The dishes were authentic, just like over there. I will definitely come back

Tasty food at reasonable prices, in a casual restaurant. There are a few tables on the ground floor but the real vibe is downstairs. Would recommend.

The worst Vietnamese I’ve had. I have food poisoning from the pho. So salty and so soulless. I wouldn’t go back

Very authentic Vietnamese, delicious food, large portions, fair prices. You can sit upstairs or downstairs, it's a bit dark there but you can also easily escape the city. Staff friendly too. Seemed quite traditional

I rate it this way because I have eaten better pho! The portion of the meal is huge and makes you feel full! I ordered chicken rice noodles. Overall, it was delicious and the ingredients were very practical! I gave this rating because I've had better pho before! The portion sizes are large and very filling! I ordered the chicken rice pho, and overall, it was quite tasty with generous.

Charming bustling informal atmosphere in two level restaurant with tables on ground floor and in basement. Very friendly and helpful staff, an extensive vegan menu that’s extremely tasty. Highly recommended

I do like the atmosphere here and the service was quick and friendly. However, because I’ve tried many pho in my life, this one, frankly, disappointed me. The rice noodles were not tender. The broth was good though. Fried tofu with morning spinach (or what I call morning glory) was extremely salty. I couldn’t finish it.

It's not the cheapest, the restaurant is not the prettiest, however the food is great, the service is great and the portions are large. Highly recommend.

Great Vietnamese cuisine. The pho was brilliant - hearty and warm.

The food was definitely not worth the prices.

Great food. Flavoursome. The service was great. Everyone was friendly. Would definitely come back.

Great restaurant in the heart of theatre land. I'm so glad we found it before our theatre visit. Delicious food and friendly staff.

I ate pho a lot in Europe, and I think it was about the 3rd or 4th time I ate it. It was a good price considering the high prices in the UK. I enjoyed it. It's neat and nice. Also, make sure to check the receipt and ask them to deduct the service fee.

Kind staff, relaxed atmosphere, There are many vegan options and really delicious.

Delicious food, very friendly staff and very reasonably priced. Don’t be put off by how small the entrance area is there’s a lovely room downstairs. Highly recommend this place.

Incredible service and food, we needed to finish our meal in half an hour to go to the theatre, our food arrived so quickly and the proportions were huge. The servers were so friendly and understanding, not to mention the food tasted brilliant, possibly the best Vietnamese restaurant I have tried in London. If I can give this place ten stars I would, we were two very happy diners!

Ate in the basement which was dingy and did not feel clean. Large portions but flavours were bland and not authentic at all

Had dinner by the window seating area. The food was delicious and had a variety of dishes! I picked the salt and pepper frog legs and pork belly with rice with Vietnamese beers! The ambiance music was good and room temperature was perfect!

My experience seems at odds with other reviews 🫣 I had veggie spring rolls spare rib starter and duck noodle soup Portions were very generous but I felt the food was somewhat bland. I would suggest improving flavour and quality and reducing portion size Also it was pretty cold downstairs 🥶

Beef pho was very large portion and delicious.Thanks to manager and all team.Good communication and fair explaining.

Lovely restaurant - tasty food - nice atmosphere- excellent service!

A lovely restaurant with amazing food- the staff are always so friendly!

Amazing Food and friendly staff, highly recommend this place

Amazing service from Danny. I made an incorrect order on my part and he helped me get what I wanted to order and didn't charge for the extra. It's rare for kindness like this to be seen as often nowadays so we really appreciate it. Amazing and delicious food.

We have been here a few times already. Great restaurant in an area which has a lot to offer but not easy to find the best deal. Fantastic food and service!

Amazing Place I really enjoyed it and the staff very friendly ☺️

Fresh, tasty and fantastic vegan options. Ordered the spicy pho bun bo hue, banh xeo and green papaya salad. Clean and nice atmosphere. Would definitely go again!

Great fresh food and good portions, right in the heart of London. Easy on the wallet too.

Great food. The staff was super friendly and helpfull. Highly recomend!

Always good customer service and food is amazing would HIGHLY recommend!

I came across this restaurant whilst passing through central and I’ve got to say it was absolutely amazing. From the staff to the food to the location and decor everything was spot on. I was well taken care of from the second I walked in until I left. The food tasted amazing and for the price it was a bargain! The same plate would've cost double somewhere else. I will most definitely be returning again soon with friends and family and highly recommend! P.S the Com Saigon was unbelievable!

Definitely recommend it!! The food is amazing, great atmosphere and the staff is lovely and super helpful.

Great food and friendly staff, definitely recommend!

Such a great atmosphere. The staff there are amazing, so accomodating. The location is very central and easy to access. The food however is the highlight, incredible quality viet food, some of the best in central London. I cannot recommend it enough from our visit.

I enjoyed a great meal at this wonderful and friendly restaurant.The service was impeccable and the ambience was amazing for a night out meal

Lovely restaurant, amazing food, very kind staff!

Intensely rude staff. Sent us out in the pouring rain

The food here was excellent, and overall, we had a good experience—until the end of our meal. When my friends and I were paying, we needed to split the bill, which took a little time to sort out. While we were figuring out the amounts, one of the waiters suddenly got frustrated and told us not to laugh or smile. This felt completely unnecessary and unprofessional. A simple transaction turned into an uncomfortable situation, which unfortunately left a bad impression on what was otherwise a great meal.

Really yummy! Super recommend! the BBQ Pork and grilled beef wrapped is excellent! Must try😍😍😍

The food was excellent and so was the service, the food comes out very quickly. Recommended!

The broth is very clean, and the place has a small, casual vibe, but it's still a nice spot for a casual date. Service is quick, and if you’re not a big eater, sharing one appetizer and ordering a main dish each is perfect for two people.

The wait is worth it !!! Came here after watching a musical. The place has few seating visible from the outside but they have a larger downstairs eating area. We were fortunate to get seated in the top level with nice views and ordered right away, 5 different kinds of food and all of them were superb! The cuisine is mostly from North Vietnam but they also serve other regional dishes. The young Vietnamese server was so polite and thoughtful so that’s a big plus. I highly recommend this place.

Tried this place on Sunday for lunch. I had the BBQ pork bun with spring rolls - hands down one of the best I’ve ever had (and trust me I’ve had a lot of buns in my life)!!!!! Tasted some of the pho as well and it was good - nice portion sizes as well. The young waiter was so kind and thoughtful as well. Heaps more seating downstairs. Would definitely recommend and will be back!

Delicious food and lovely staffs

Small place with great food, portion sizes are very generous, ordered duck pho and ribs for starters, could not finish but food was very delicious

Love finding little gems like Com Viet through Open Table! Lovely welcoming staff who seemed to really appreciate our custom. The menu is varied and the food absolutely delicious, in very generous portions. I will be back for sure.

En apariencia, el restaurante es sencillo, pero no dejes que eso te desanime. Arriba es pequeño y luminoso y abajo más grande e íntimo. El ambiente era genial y el servicio insuperable con camareros muy serviciales. La comida estaba todo cocinado fresco y una verdadera alegría para comer. Todo lo que elegimos fue cocinado a la perfección y lleno de sabor. Sin duda volveremos de nuevo, esto es una verdadera joya de un restaurante.

A little gem in Covent Garden. Good was fresh, tasty and plentiful. Atmosphere was cool and service brilliant. A wonderful dining experience. When we arrived there was a queue outside and the upstairs looked small and bright!, we were seated downstairs which was cozy and a lot bigger. So glad we booked!!!. We would definitely use this restaurant again.

We happened to pass by late at night. Plenty of free tables. Fixed service. We just wanted something quick to eat. I ate summer rolls. 2 pcs, contained mostly salad, lacked the mint taste and a little too little noodles, fresh prawns and good dipping sauce. The daughter chose fried rice and added chicken, the chicken was a bit dry and felt like it was cooked, fried rice very good very good garlic taste! The daughter thought it was the best fried rice she had ever eaten out. Pho good portion, good broth quite ok. We happened to pass by late at night. Plenty of free tables. Fast service.

Com Viet is an absolute gem in the heart of London! I visited this place for my birthday and the cosy ambiance, friendly service, and authentic Vietnamese flavors made for an unforgettable dining experience. I ordered the chicken pho and my partner ordered the prawn pho, in which both was incredibly rich and flavorful – the broth tasted like it had been simmered for hours, and the fresh herbs added the perfect touch. Both broth had exquisite tastes, Chefs kiss of a Pho! The salt and pepper squid was well prepared and crisp however it won’t be something I think I’d order again as the pho was flavoursome and was just enough for me. The staff were attentive and welcoming, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. Prices were reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and central location. I’m on the hunt for the best Pho and this is one of my favourites on the list! If you’re craving authentic Vietnamese cuisine, Com Viet is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return and try more from their menu!

An extraordinary culinary adventure and a journey into the delights of Vietnamese gastronomy... Excellent value for money where finesse and exquisiteness meet this New Year's Eve 2024... Happy New Year 2025!

My favorite Vietnamese restaurant in London because of food quality and budget friendly. It's 3rd time visit! Everytime I ordered Banh Xeo (Vietnamese pancake), which is amazing. This time, added papaya salad with prawn, wok with beef, water spinach and garlic, summer rolls. Every single foods was delicious👏 I will visit again.

I don't tend to write reviews but this food slapped harder than your mother and father when they slapped you after failing to understand the workings of long division for the 6th time as a young defenseless child in primary school. Come. Run

Very tasty authentic Hue-style pho, and friendly service. Plenty of tables downstairs.

Great little Vietnamese restaurant with scrumptious food and amazing staff. Really good value for money. Not to be missed

The Vietnamese food here is pretty decent. It may not be very traditional in my view, but the quality, flavour, and service are definitely there. It’s fairly priced. The staff members were friendly and attentive, which added to the positive experience. Although the place isn't huge, don’t let the decoration influence your judgment—after all, you go to a restaurant to enjoy the food, and that’s where this place truly shines. By the way, some of the best shiitake mushrooms I've ever had! I’ll definitely be going back tomorrow to ask where they source them from. As someone who grew up around the vietnamese culture, I do respect the quality offered here.

The papaya and prawn salad was absolutely delicious but then so was everything else we ordered. Fabulous food, great service and great location! Highly recommend

Such a reliable place in Central for hearty Vietnamese food. Great starters, great pho, great wine! I love bringing groups of friends here for a catch up meal. Ask to be seated downstairs if you want a more lively vibes, but if you want quieter seating then opt for upstairs!

We were hungry for a good Vietnamese during our London getaway. The ratings and reviews pushed us to try this restaurant. The atmosphere was ok, and the service was good. However, in terms of food, we were extremely disappointed. I don't usually write reviews when I'm disappointed, but this time I have no choice. I ordered a Bun Bo Hue, and my partner a Pho. The meat was very fatty, of very poor quality and I wonder if it was still edible. I tasted a piece, and left the dish. Even the noodles tasted reheated. My partner described the same thing to me. We also had spring rolls to accompany everything. Terrible. We left less than 10 minutes after receiving the order. There are so many other good places in London, don't waste your time (and money) here!

Una verdadera joya con comida sabrosa y un gran servicio. Me topé con esto por casualidad y todo fue perfecto. Bonito ambiente. Precios razonables.

If the Lamb and Flag is too busy, this wonderful alternative is just up the alley and on the corner from it. The pefix lunch menu was affordable, and the food was excellent. It's some of the best ethnic food we've had in the city.

Lovely lunchtime eat. The pancakes were crispy and the bun flavoursome. Service was attentive and fast. Highly recommend . Thank you.

So good! But, Saigon Stewed Pork Belly is too small 😣

Excellent service and a great variety of food - we enjoyed it all. Thank you!

I ate Bunbohoe and it was really delicious. There was more meat in it than the actual soup. Just ask and go But spring rolls were spring rolls.

so delicious! such a good price for such a central location, truly recommend

Great little place, I always try to get Vietnamese food for lunch if I’m working in town and a few times I’ve ended up here. Very nice staff, delicious authentic food (what do I know, I’ve never been to Vietnam!) and not too overpriced, for central London at least. It would’ve been a perfect lunch except for a woman talking very loudly to her friend on the table next but one to me. I don’t know how she managed to talk that much while still breathing AND eating a delicious Bun Hanoi but unfortunately she survived it. Not the restaurant’s fault of course. Thanks Com Viet!

What a nice experience we have had today at this lovely Vietnamese restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was fine, provided by Nicole, who looked after all of us, making sure we had a good time , she’s extremely polite and friendly, so please Guys you have to ask about her when you come over Highly recommend

I had lunch here with a friend a few days ago. The welcome was warm and professional. The food was absolutely delicious! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Com viet . And I will definitely be back.

Such a lovely restaurant. The feeling of a neighbourhood restaurant in bustling Covent Garden. Food is fresh and delicious and the service friendly. One of my faves.

Great food and service here, at decent prices, lots of veg and vegan options, came away full and happy, especially with the birthday treat they gave me! Thanks CV :)

Delicious and quick food! Beef pho had a good flavor and the papaya salad was light and crunchy. Loved the fried tofu on it. The iced coffee was not too sweet. Overall great meal

Delicious, fragrant food. Excellent friendly service. Knowledgeable, patient, helpful staff. Nice ambience downstairs. Great wine. Had a lovely dinner with family. Vegan and gluten free friendly. They waiter was very helpful and proactive on making sure I also knew not to taste other people's food if it contained gluten.

Lovely restaurant atmosphere, great food and really well informed and helpful staff!

Great food and atmosphere. Lovely seating area downstairs

My family and I thank Dany and Isabelle for giving us an excellent time in London, where we discovered Tofu, Pho and an atmosphere. A more than warm welcome, with very appreciative servers. Tasty cuisine that disturbs our palate, we don't generally appreciate broths, I liked this one. Thanks for everything!

The beef pho I had here cleansed my soul, it was so incredibly good! The staff was incredibly friendly and fast. The restaurant decor was very simple and the front door didn't properly remain closed, so it was a little cold upstairs. But that didn't take away from the lovely dinner we had here!

It's a bit expensive compared to other similar restaurants in the nearby area. The downstairs room should be redecorated, it's quite ugly.

Lovely lunch spot. Great food, very authentic! Service was spot on! Lovely friendly staff! We will be back. Thank you !

We had a great time at Com Viet. The food was amazing and the service was very good. Conrad "we think" was working so hard to get everyone seated while juggling orders and payments, but still made sure to ask people how they enjoyed their meal.

Rice noodles are really delicious bb

Lovely vietnamese restaurant in Covent Garden. Had an amazing experience here. I tried the Pho soup, and it was absolutely delicious and perfectly balanced. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is super friendly and attentive. Will definitely visit again to try more!

My husband and I went here on Saturday evening and the service from our waiter was fantastic. He gave us great suggestions on what we should order as it was my first time at a Vietnamese restaurant. As vegetarians we were immensely impressed by the selection they had and the food we had ordered was full of flavour. A massive thank you to the restaurant owner Tao for also making it a memorable experience. Bobby and Jas

I came here for lunch today due to the great reviews and they did not disappoint. The waiter was friendly and checking to see how I was doing. In addition, the pho beef broth was excellent (not too salty but still flavourful). Service was fast. Thank you!

Excellent place to get excellent Viet street food in the heart of Covent Garden. Nem (spring rolls) is well filled and meaty - almost a meal onto themselves. Satisfyingly unctuous pork belly stews is a must for ever hungry eaters like me. Bo Luc lac has lovely balance of oyster sauce and sugar. Great for single diners too.

Wie immer meine erst Station in London, bei konstanter Qualität und nettem Service.

The food satisfied our longing for Asian food. This resto located near to Covent Garden and the French lady who served us was so friendly. Love everything we ordered.

Food ranging from very bad ( deep fried squid, horribly greasy, but lacking any taste) to indifferent (pho with some remote resemblance to a real thing, but not much more. Noodles came in a solid lump, impossible to separate, meanly small portion of herbs on the side). Shrimp rolls that managed to be completely sterile to taste buds. Green papaya salad was slightly better then the rest , but not good.

There is a good variety of dishes to choose from. We enjoyed the starters and mains as shown in the picture. Not too busy on Sunday lunch time and has a number of tables down stairs too!. It could do with a makeover as furniture is old and tired... other than that great service and food.

Really nice food, shaking beef was excellent. Bun Sa was definitely the highlight. The place is like a basic cafe style. Being charged 12.5% service charge is a bit steep. Beer is a bit over priced especially with service charge included. Overall definitely worth a visit. And the value is still excellent considering central london prices.

The tastiest I've eaten in London, light and inexpensive
