We had a Banh Mis from here the other night
They were delicious and well priced
Very good service
Shall go back
Except that the owner/man is not that friendly I like the place a lot because nice food
Awesome Vietnamese place with a little fusion influence. Loved how friendly the staff was and the fresh ingredients. If you like Vietnamese food this place is a must try. Prices are reasonable and the place is chill.
Love the hint of lemongrass and the flavors of the beef curry. The pho was also really tasty with pleasant fragrances. Love love love this place
My favorite will be the vietnamese ice coffee. It is so good. I love the ambiance of this place. The deco just gets better over the years.
The food is good. Love the bbq duck and summer roll.
Great for groups.
Top score for their effort in making a great vegetarian option of their beef pho! Usually the vegetarian version of things lacks thought and flavour but not in this case. It looked amazing with loads of vegetables and really good tofu. Will definitely be back!
A casual Vietnamese restaurant on Dominion Road. The place is clean with a relaxing ambience.
Ordered the chicken pho with vermicelli and beef pho. Both were decently portion.
The soup tasted very delicious with a fresh and rich meat broth. However the meat were overcooked, especially the chicken, which also tasted bland. Some of the pho noodles were under cooked, some were alright, seems like they combined 2 different batches of noodles together. The vermicelli was well flavored.

This place came highly recommended by a mate so I have to give it a go. Nice ambience and very clean. We ordered the Saigon style beef noodle soup and deep fried spring rolls to start. First word that came to mind when i had my first spoonful of soup was Herbalicious. Compared to your other Vietnamese chain restaurants, you can really taste the authenticity of this dish. The dark broth was hearty and warm with aniseedy goodness, plenty of herbs and beef slices and the silky,melt in your mouth pho. Spring rolls are just spring rolls but these babies were were something else. Pastry was super flakey and crisp. Everything here was made from scratch, no shortcuts. We started to wonder why the food was taking awhile then realised good food takes time. Worth every minute.Service was great too, none of that help- yourself -to-the-pile-of-chopsticks-taking-too-much-space-on-my-table kinda service. Love it when my belly is warm and satisfied on a cold winter night. 5/5
Fried Spring rolls are yummy! highly recommend.
Staffs here are nice and friendly. The price is reasonable and the food tastes good. Will come back next time.
Delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch at VietKitchen today. Hubby had the seafood clay pot fried rice & said it was tasty, flavoursome & satisfied his fried rice cravings. I had the pure beef noodle soup (pho) & it really hit the spot with me! Lots of chopped coriander on top but I actually really liked the crunchy pops of coriander flavor as I drank the soup. The rice noodles in the soup were perfectly soft & chewy, just the way I like it! The soup itself was tasty & heartwarming. We will definitely be back!
busy place even on sunday. food are more than authentic. they always surprise u when your dish coming. love the coconut or sweet curry flavor duck. never tried dis kind of duck before, and it just blew my mind. lemongrass chicken salad is also suprising. Pho just the basic vietnamese dish which u can figure out the level of authentic.
Authentic Saigon style food. I lived in Saigon for 4 years. This place is as close as it gets to being there.
The food was fabulous presented well and tasted even better.
This is a family run business.
You won't be disappointed.
We have eaten at Viet Kitchen many times, which serves great, authentic Saigon food. The menu has plenty to choose from. The lemongrass chicken Vietnamese Baguette is a yummy delicious starter to share but one can also finish it as a main ๐. Pho is a must have and a dish that never disappoint. The chilli hit and flavoursome herbs are delightful. Relaxing atmosphere and friendly service. Will definitely return again. Thank you.
The place was easy to find and had a ramp for accessibility (I was on crutches at the time). The service we got from our big family was accommodating and helped us be comfortable in our stay. We ordered mainly the dishes on rice so it was easiest to pick what everyone wanted. The pork chops on rice was marinaded well and served up in big portions to match the price. My only concern is that some of the side dishes were too overpriced for the amount you actually get, if that can be looked into I think it would be a great for value! All in all the experience was good and would come back to taste the other meals. Keep it up team! Please review some of the prices on the menu :) remember we are still on dominion road not viaduct hehe.
Very nice clean and cozy place, friendly staff who can give appropriate suggestions. Food didnโt take long and was delicious, mild but with hot sauce on side. Will definitely come back here if we are around.
Authentic French Vietnamese experience ! Stunning taste , great range of menu options , lovely cocktails. Limited vegan options ..Papaya salad is excellent. Plenty of seating inside and outside.
Really Tasty food, went back to Vietnam for a moment. I had a spicy soup and banh mi... So tasty. Our meals were all vegetarian so cool!
Service was warm and amazing.
Will come back again
Great cheap eats/ authentic Vietnamese. My favourite dish is pho. They have mix of both brisket and raw beef. The broth is thick and flavoursome. The staff are very friendly too. They take orders for takeaway and wait time is usually 10-15min.
Spacious and well decorated venue. Saigon Caramelized Pork Belly with egg was delicious and tender. Banh mi was quite good - needed a bit more pickled carrot, but the bread was freshly baked and perfect, and the lemongrass chicken was very tasty.

Finally popped in with hubby to try their food.
๐๐๐๐: I ordered Spicy Beef Noodle (Bun Bo Hue)
The broth was full of flavour, best Iโve tasted in Auckland so far. Every time have Vietnamese food I never venture outside my phรณ, so this dish I would personally highly recommend. Just right amount of spiciness which I loved.
Friendly and attentive staff
Nice simple clean decor inside
Good sized dish/bowl
Viet Namese coffee โ๏ธ- I liked but couldnโt justify the price of $8.90
๐๐: Hubby ordered Claypot Seafood fried rice with Prawn and squid. He was looking forward to the flavour of charcoal claypot like he had in VN but was let down. Fried rice lacked flavour (not cooked in clay pot) his prawns were shrimps and veges were from the frozen packet
๐๐: Ordered Banh Xeo for takeaway for my mum, disappointed to find three shrimps in the dish
โจ Staff were friendly and attentive. We provided feedback about the Claypot fried Rice and they were apologetic, explained how council did not allow them to cook fried rice in Claypot due to hygiene reasons.
Restaurant decor was refreshing and clean, great atmosphere.
Will be back to try other dishes on the menu
