Hanoi Pho Restaurant in Hackney

Food is great and the staff are so lovely. It delivers well also!

Delicious food. Lovely, relaxing atmosphere. Calm and professional service. Not cheap! £65 for 2 mains, 2 starters and 2 cold drinks

We had a quick dinner on a Tuesday before going to a gig in the nearby Moth club. It was quite, only a few customers . The atmosphere was somewhat unremarkable, with a generic interior that lacked character, but the dining experience was still pleasant, and the food was delicious. We tried the pork skewers with satay sauce , the prawn spring rolls, and the special noodles. The skewers took 10 minutes to arrive, but they were cooked to perfection. The spring rolls were bursting with flavour, filled with succulent prawns and fresh vegetables. These two dishes overshadowed the noodles, which didn't seem as flavorful. Generally, Hanoi pho was a pleasant surprise. I will definitely revisit and get some more of their skewers. The service was excellent, attentive, and polite throughout.

A few months ago, I heard that a friend in Hackney London went to this restaurant to eat. I speak Vietnamese, but I found the service very bad. At about 6pm, there was an employee standing at the drink counter. The service was very bad, no greeting, different attitude, threw the menu and took it. order. order. Average height, I think this guy is the boss. Food is okay After eating, he asked to pay, he threw away the bill. Having eaten once at this restaurant, I will never go back to this restaurant when I visit a friend in Hackney Vietnamese brothers and sisters, be careful when entering this restaurant. If you pay for food, you'll be scared by this guy's hosspita attitude.

Nice enough pho. Prawn crackers were your typical ones from the supermarket rather than Thai spicy ones so that was a bit unfortunate

My vegetable spring roll Bun arrived in a wet styrofoam box, with soggy spring rolls, and the flavours quite bland. Delivery time was longer than expected also.

Packing of the food never comes appropriate always tipped

The food arrived well packaged, hot and flavour-ful. Thank you

Worst in Hackney... Behaviour rude

broth was good, beef was a bit tough

Simply OUTSTANDING!!! Better than Chinese food, ENJOY 👍

Food is not seasoned well, also lacks quality of ingredients. Prawns needs to be cleaned before serving, and also salad before wrapped in the summer roll. Overall the food is subpar.

Amazing food.. 11 out of 10. Super friendly staff too.

One of the worst service from this restaurant! Hrye always ignores customers notes and also ignores what I told the guy on the phone about my order. my order was packed like an idio! no chop sticks or spoon found! then it arrived COLD! Big shame on this restaurant!

Pho was quite average, broth was average. I asked for extra herbs and didn’t receive them

if I could I would give this place 6 stars :)

Nice food, good price with super quick service

Just wonderful like always, been eating here for the past decade or so.

This is an unacceptable time frame! And no option to call

The whole soup was out of its container, spread in the bag on went onto the other dishes like crispy rolls - I asked for refund on customer service

Food is delicious :-) very nice staff Will come back again

A great driver. The salt and pepper aubergine was extremely soft and soggy! Other dishes arrived ok.

IT WAS NEVER DELIVERED! I waited for over 3 hours! They kept changing status and posting times! I wish read the reviews earlier so many people complained! I want a refund this has absolutely ruined my evening.

Popped in on my walk with a friend, as the menu looked good and the restaurant was quite busy for a Wednesday lunch time. I got the Pho Bun Hue Brisket, the broth was so delicious and full of flavour. The noodles were cooked beautifully. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The restaurant was comfortable and clean.

I waited 1 hour to a ball of soup

Second time I have dinner here. The restaurant is very clean, the staff is very nice and the food is delicious. Thank you very much

Delicious pho & i’m Asian with high expectation & standards… So that’s saying something.

Ordered 21.36, estimated delivery at 22.15, arrived 23.15+. Not cold at all

There was half of my order missing this is very frustrating

Yet again, the driver could not find my address. Parkside Estate "RUTLAND ROAD,MORPETH ROAD SIDE "I have to keep leaving my address looking for the rider/driver.

Very good, I ordered the bun hue and it was delicious - I’d order again

This is my new favourite place for Vietnamese in London!!! No frills, lovely service and absolutely delicious, authentic food. The beef stew was gelatinous, hearty and super aromatic. The pork & spring roll bun was the best I’ve had, with lots of herbs snd pickled veg. I usually hate writing reviews…but this place really deserves it. I’ve been to SO many more average Vietnamese in the area who have much higher ratings. Come here - it really is the best!!! We’ll be back very soon! Thank you 🙏

Really lovely service. Excellent value for starters - flavours were great too. As a vegetarian i was jealous as the meaty broths were amazing but veggie was great too

The Bo Kho was delicious, one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. So much flavor!

Amazing fresh place for Vietnamese dining. Looks great for parties and a friendly atmosphere. Food is authentic and delicious. Back bar is beautiful. 5 stars.

I love Hanoi Pho. Been going there for over ten years. The chef just became the owner and the quality of the food has jumped up. Glazed Chicken wings / Grilled Pork with vermicelli / papaya salad with prawns are stand out dishes for me !!

The soup spilled into the bag, they should tape it shut

I tried to book a birthday reservation for 10 people. The restaurant manager confirmed my booking and menu selection 2 weeks before my reservation, only to tell me a week later that all the dishes I requested are no longer doable, and if they were to do it, they would charge me £3000. What an absurd amount where each dish on average would be £300! Since I already confirmed reservation and dishes with all my guests, it takes extra effort to tell everyone to change restaurant and to rearrange everyone's time. The restaurant's decision was untimely and unprofessional. I would not recommend getting a private booking with this restaurant.

A rare gem. Fast service and nice stuff. Portions are large. It felt really authentic. I truly enjoyed the experience!

Delicious, home style proper Vietnamese

The staff were friendly and the service was fast… the food was very good!I had the crispy pancake which was crispy on the outside and not oily at all (which I find in many other places) for main I had bun bo hue which was perfect, the both had lots of favour and the beef melts on in your mouth. The place needs updating but I found out they just took over the place so it’s on the list of things to do. Overall service and food 10/10 can’t fault it.. keep up the standard guys!!!!

Food is great and very reasonable prices! Staff are lovely as well. Amazing veggie options

I have been here every week and every time the food and the service was spot on. Can confirm as a Vietnamese born and bred the Rare Beef Pho taste very very authentic. It is different from other places and can tell the chef puts a lot of care into every dish. The beef is quality and tender. Price is very reasonable. You got my continuous support as honestly it is very stand out thats why I keep coming back 👍👍👍 Highly recommended Beef Pho and Shaking Beef. P/s my proper Vietnamese auntie recommended me this restaurant so. if you know you know

Really good proper vegetarian pho with super fresh herb side, excellent summer rolls and not a half bad papaya salad. The staff are super cute and I had a good time.

amazing food with excellent service. I had a great time there. The waiter is very friendly and they treated me really well. Would definitely recommend.

Food is great when they get it right but twice now my order has been messed up which is disappointing

Super authentic neighbourhood gem that is underserving of such a low rating. Food is delicious and cheap for London standards. They serve dishes (eg. prawn cakes) that I've yet to find in other Vietnamese restaurants in London. I loved their cassava noodles, prawn summer rolls, and the vermicelli in spicy fish soup (that they claim is of a special recipe). Everytime I've been the staff have always been super friendly and they're often full of Vietnamese customers. Will definitely be back often.

Ate here a couple of times, the food is really good, great prices and service as well, not sure why the rating is so low. Last night we had some prawn summer rolls, bok choi and some duck noodles with vegetables, all delicious! Last time I ate here was a while ago, but I remember the food was really good back then too (had some chicken). Will be visiting again!

Horrendous service. They poured a cup of orange juice all over me without an apology

Found this place randomly and food was amazing. Portion were generoussssz and very cheap. Staff was lovely, chill and relaxing vibe. Would defo come back

Excellent food, fast and friendly service, definitely coming back. The best jasmine tea I ever had ❤️ food served with fresh herbs thank you ❤️

The food is so authentic and tasty. The staff is friendly and attentive. Highly recommend. Definitely coming back :)

Beef Pho was tasty love the packaging too would definitely order again

I have tried a few items of their menu and so far everything was delicious. The customer service can be improved, the lady who seems to be the manager is excellent but the young guy serving needs a bit more training. Also, the beers could be more cold, they always come as almost in ambient temperature. However, the food is worth, always.

This is an excellent Vietnamese restaurant. Four of us visited tonight. All our food was hot, well presented and delicious. The portions are an excellent size. The service was professional, friendly and polite. Nothing was to much trouble. It is well worth spending the time to walk or jump on the bus from Surbiton to eat here. As an independent restaurant it definitely surpassed our expectations. We all had a great experience.

Đồ ăn khá ngon, chuẩn vị VN, giá cả rẻ trong khu vực, rất đáng để thử

It’s a shame their rating is so low due to customers complaining about late deliveries and spilled sauce - when that has nothing to do with the food and service. Absolutely delicious every time and well priced. We’ve tried just about every vegetarian item on the menu by now and we’ve never been disappointed. Definitely give it a go!

A superb independent restaurant that's been in, and part of the community, for years. I take my 83 year old friend there, and she agrees. Great food. Reasonable pricing. Great ambience, authentically kitsch. These are the reasons Hackney is wonderful.

This is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant. The food here was amazing, very cheap price compared to other Vietnamese restaurants I used to eat. The handsome waiter explained how to eat them properly really well to me. Especially beef pho and Hue beef noodle soup here are really excellent compared to Green Papaya restaurant. I will definitely come back in the future. A great experience.

So sad the Bun Hue broth has changed, loved the old version so much

Took family for lunch this afternoon and everything we ordered was fantastic. Looking forward to our next meal and trying other options on the menu. Two children love their food as well.

Nearly didn’t go in because of a 3.7 rating — but it was soo good ! Had Delicious Beef , noodles and coconut rice ! And morning glory always a winner.. Fun atmosphere as well for our valentines date and polite, helpful and friendly waiter ( maybe their son ? ) and lovely cook :) definitely going again and recommending it to friends. (Just saying - always read some lower rated reviews because a lot of the time it’s some angry unreasonable people who just got a late „just east“delivery and put the ratings for a great restaurant down ! :)

Just ate at this place and it was delicious! Feel the slightly lower rating seems a bit unfair. I tend to go for Thai food instead but this was a very good choice. The staff were very friendly and helpful as well. Go for the Hanoi bear it's better than the sigon one! Had the chow mane with chicken and morning glory. Will definitely come back and friends to do the same. Glad I took the chance on this place considering the reviews. It was definitely worth it!

Best affordable and authentic Vietnamese food. A bowl of pho is only roughly £10 which is v cheap for what you get. Great service with v charismatic waiter! I come here regularly and would say it's the best food compared to its competitors on mare street. Fyi, the pho has more Northern tastes (less sweet than Southern).

Delicious vegan food and huge portions!

The food was amazing and had all the right tastes and spices. The service was fast and efficient, I didn’t have to wait long for my food or for ordering. Also the waiters are really friendly and welcoming so I definitely would recommend others try the food at this restaurant. The prices are reasonable as it isn’t expensive or cheap, it’s affordable.

Favourite Vietnamese in London! Not sure why ratings are so low. Loved the summer rolls and the rare beef pho was delicious (a really hearty broth that was so much tastier than the pho I had at Green Papaya last week). Service was friendly and quick. Previously have ordered the pork belly and that too was great.

Fantastic choice for lunch and dinner! Jaime was amazing explaining the tofu and chicken options. We went for the chicken curry and grilled chicken and left very very happy. Kind staff and clean environment

Great pho and really nice summer rolls. Good value too, will order from here again

Tasty food and lots of vegan options, but the service is often REALLY slow. There’s usually only one waiter doing everything, even during busy lunch service. We recently had to wait 20 minutes with no drinks, just for our order to be taken (it wasn’t the waiter’s fault, there were too many tables). To add service charge for something like that is quite shameless of the owners.

i'm kind of surprised this place doesn't have a better rating to be honest? i actually thinks its better than green papaya or bun bun bun. It was my first time there tonight, but my friend is a regular. I got a chicken bun and she ordered a beef brisket pho (also had dessert & starters) it was all fresh, fragrant and tasty. great service, ambient spot and great food. highly recommend!!

Food was quite good and the service was quick. Would recommend the Crispy duck and thr pork belly with rice.

They kindly seated us late on a Friday night. Food was great and owner / staff are lovely people. The décor was a plus too ;-0

The food is really good, and staff is nice and I have an experience to share, after getting a missing item on a delivery, I got back to them with the order details and they absolutely understand and solved for me. Thank you!

We had a lovely, tasty lunch with friends at Hanoi Pho. 2nd visit and tried the My Xao - Beef - delicious and filling. Quick service and Jamie was so friendly and helpful. They gave us great recommendations and were really attentive. It was for a birthday and they went out of their way to help us celebrate and make it extra special. A little hidden gem! We’ll be back with more friends.

Best Pho in London? It just might be!

Came by on a recommendation from a friend. The food and atmosphere was great, the staff attentive and all round had a great time. Would definitely say it's worth checking out if you're feeling like a good quality Vietnamese meal.

bad service ‘ food can only be ordered 1 time The food is brought out but there is no bowl to bring out when ordered

Tea cup was dirty. "It's only tea stain" isn't acceptable. The papaya salad was over seasoned with too much fish sauce. The glass noodles with crab meat must have been made with a ghost crab as there was no crab flavour at all. Bland & flavourless. The Bánh Xèo was very oily. I'm not being malicious just honest. Maybe the chef was having a bad day? One caveat, I was the only customer eating in. As they weren't busy I'm surprised the food was so bad.

It’s been a while since I last came to eat here. About 4 years ago when I lived in London we used to come here like once week. Recently I visited London and came back here. Can’t not fault the food still taste just as amazing a lot of newly staff which I don’t know but they were very welcoming polite and friendly. I know there’s a lot of Vietnamese restaurants in London but I definitely highly recommend u all try this one. 5 stars all around

I was really impressed with their incredible service, I highly recommend this place for whom they are into Vietnamese food👌👍

Absolutely delicious food every time. Thank you 🙏

I’ve had a very tasty dinner for two here. My shaking beef was tender and juicy and my partner’s fried aubergine dish was divine. The starter of salt and pepper tofu and aubergine were ok but the mains more than made up for it. Not having been here for years, I’d definitely return.

Tasty coconut prawn curry. Very nice staff. The restaurant adds service charge for a bill. 4 stars because my order been lost, it’s not a problem, I waited quite long, no worries as well, but… They add a service charge at the end.

Dirt in the prawn spring rolls and spaghetti (!) instead of the usual flat rice noodles for the pho. No Hanoi here!

we had a great time there. Good food 😋 good service 👌 8/5/2022 the lobster 🦞 and scolops were truly amazing 👏 🙌 😋

Really tasty! Salt & pepper soft shell crab was delicious!

I asked for no egg and still got sent egg!

They sent me dried noodles when I ordered pho soup. Disappointing but not the end of world. The noodles tasted nice despite being rather oily. Why so much mitochondria-oxidising vegetable oil? Why? 😭 The pork char siu was delicious though. I'd probably order again... Apart from items that involve frying/oil

Had a very nice diner at Hanoi Pho. The spring rolls were crispy and the stuffing was of very good quality. The pho was amazing, shootout to the duck one. Efficient and helpful waiter as well. Will definitely come back soon!

Fresh ingredients, authentic staff.

Best pho on this street, they do it right with the portions and they have all thd toppings

I got my order totally diferent, when I ask to the driver he was rude and he say all the time I don't know. So very disapointed

Came here tonight, had the best time ever! The food was AMAZING!! SO FRESH. there was alot of us there for a birthday meal and the staff were very polite and quick with our orders and food!! The food was amazing. I would DEFINITELY come back again and i would advise everyone to book a table!! Love this place, i qant to say a massive thank you to Vincent, he is absolutely the best!! I will see you again!! Rosa xxx

Best egg fried rice I’ve ever had! And the staff service is perfection! Went here after a good night out and had pretty much all the the foods. But these stood out the most! Monkfish tail: crispy and succulent meat, but flaky and the flavour was amazing! Squid: not too chewy, very well flavoured. Best I’ve had in a long time Egg fried rice: Star of the show, didn’t taste it until the end of the course but this is the best rice I’ve ever had in my life. Can be eaten as it’s own dish. Wow! Amazing stuff; highly recommend

Week ago today met two friends for lunch I had not experienced Vietnamese cuisine. The women managing was rushed of her feet it was packed. The wait worth it. I have a food allergy which can sometimes be a hindrance l had plenty of choice. The food excellent we were looked after extremely well. Restaurant also had a nice vibe. I'm not a Hackney local but definitely visit again. Indie

Lovely waitress bad food, overpriced

I got chicken curry instead of tofu curry. As a vegan who hasn’t eaten meat for 25 years this is unacceptable. The rice ordered was wrong an undercooked. I tried to call restaurant but they wouldn’t answer.

Fast delivery, friendly and good natured driver. The food was delicioius!

Had a really good meal and excellent service at Hanoi Pho, tofu pho was tasty. It was a Sunday and the waiter had a friendly chat with everyone bringing a nice atmosphere to the place
