4 out of 5 for the following reasons;
Service; Great wait and drinks staff on the floor- friendly, fast and lingering in the background filling up water glasses.
Friendliness;
Friendly wait and drink staff.
Value for money; today my family ordered three dishes we ordered the beef pho and the chicken salad and I had the pan fried duck salad. Drinks; Coke, and two Vietnamese iced coffee. Cost $67.00 for three drinks and three meals which was reasonable prices for the area.
Cleanliness; clean tables, would have given a 5, except the toilets weren't clean when I used the facilities.
Overall; will come back because the food is good.
If you found my review helpful please give me a thumbs up 👍🏼 and don't forget to follow me on Google Maps as I highlight the sublime and not so sublime goods and services available to us travellers.

Viet Lane is pretty much our “go to” on a Friday evening when I can’t be bothered. Or I’m already on my second gin.
What we love most about here is that it’s consistently excellent food and great value for money. And this week was no exception.
For entree we shared popcorn prawns and, breaking away from the usual fresh rolls, chicken skewers. (Top tip, the fresh rolls are excellent but don’t save them and have them the next day. Clearly the word “fresh” is a clue.) The Favourite Husband always insists on telling me the prawns are “so moist” to the point where I may have to leave him behind next time. The chicken skewers were good, a real bbq charcoal flavour. Presentation was a tiny bit negligent.
The Favourite Husband had Shaking Beef and it was no surprise that we then had to suffer his commentary about how it wasn’t moving or even trembling. (He’s definitely being left behind next time.) I resorted to my favourite of Hà Nội Grilled Pork Noodles. The depth of flavour with this dish is phenomenal and resolutely remains my favourite.
My only issue last night was when the Favourite Husband was asked if he wanted another drink and declined; the server walked away. Hello?! Sitting right here with an empty glass. Don’t make out I’m invisible - please and thank you. Without that it would be 5 stars.
Cute spot in Bayfield mall. Service was a bit lacking and had to ask for the table to be wiped down. Think they'd been busy though so understandable.
Food was yum. We had the prawn salad, soft shell crab and Bao.
Cocktails were yum
This was delicious! Chicken curry was chock full of flavors and left a tingle at the back of your throat. The rice was soft and fluffy great contrast and overall delicious.
Popcorn prawns were crunchy and light, the peanut butter sauce was complementary and sweet and sour sauce gave it a zing.
Quick and efficient customer service, very polite and welcoming. This place is great.
Nice good food. Some food are served with fire🔥. fried spring rolls were good but quiet small. And it would be great if Hanoi noodle menu can order more noodles extra. Thanks for the good experience👍
Perhaps the best restaurant in Tauranga. We have been about twenty times - I've made my way through most of the menu and my wife has the beef pho every time. You can get a proper, tasty, restaurant-quality and restaurant-atmosphere meal for under $20 here (the food court in Bayfair competes for this price range!) and there are also fancier selections that get up to $32 or $34. Options are diverse and almost all of the dishes have been excellent. We didn't like the mussels that much and the garlic tofu was a bit salty, otherwise no complaints. Hapuka curry, kumara curry, crab salad, pineapple fried rice, boat fish, shaking beef, pho, beef cheek, scallop coconut curry, beef salad (VERY spicy), rolls. Staff are friendly, the place is clean and stylish, the location and parking are great. What more can you ask for.
Absolutely love having lunch here. My partner and I love the chicken pho and we often get the Vietnamese coffee. Service is great and friendly too! Would love to get dinner here one day without having to rush back to work lol
Have been twice now, food fresh and yum. Wait staff in our last visit very attentive, thought reasonably priced
I took 12 Residents from our Retirement Village and everyone enjoyed their delicious meals. Excellent service and even a "treat " for 1 of our couples as it was their 64th wedding anniversary. Highly recommend this restaurant. Staff brilliant.
Thanks from Suzie
Favourite restaurant in the BOP. Food and service always perfect. Not often every single item on menu is delicious, but here it is…and I’ve tried every single item!
❤️❤️❤️
