Authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Mount Maunganui. The flavours will tickle your taste buds and the portions are great value. The Waterfall Chicken is highly recommended and if you go early for dinner, Happy Hour is 4 to 6pm. The food came out fast and excellent service. Great decor.

Lovely staff, amazing smelling food. My bowl of Beef Pho was devine. The best thing was most items are gluten free, looking forward to visiting again to try more of the deliciousness, such a great wee spot.

Updated 13 Jan 22.We returned here 11 months later and was not disappointed. The salt and pepper squid was yet again amazing and won over our non fish eater primary schooler. The summer rolls and dipping sauce was incredible.And the vegan green curry fantastic. I'm not usually a fan of curries with coconut cream. However this one was not overly creamy and had a good amount of tofu and fresh vegetables! 5 stars againDated 21st Jan 21 or there aboutsI had walked by here a few times and it's always crazy busy so I was keen to try this place. I was not disappointed, we popped in quickly to grad one plate as an eat in and take the other one away as we had a pending tired child on our hands. The staff where fantastic and had no issues with working some plates eat in and the others take out. The vegan Wontons where honestly the best i have had in ages, even my omnivore partner enjoyed them and he reported that that the squid was amazing. Once we got home the ribs and vegan curry was consumed with leftovers for lunch. Don't be put off by the no booking system. The app they use is fabulous and we didn't have to wait long at all.!

Great dining experience. Every time we drove past this restaurant at Mount, we would see how busy it was. So, we decided to give it a go. We were quickly seated! The staff is friendly, and the food is amazing. I recommend the creamy chicken curry and calamari. We also tried the chicken pho, but it wasn't for us. However, we could see why it was a great hit, and it offers great value with big portions! My wife is a picky person when it comes to taste, presentation, customer service, and cleanliness. But this will be our go-to place.

I was intrigued by the name and the Google reviews so wandered in and loved it. Really fun atmosphere. The staff were great, my server explained the menu to me and had some recommendations. I had the grilled meat noodle salad and the fresh summer rolls and both were delicious. Would go again!

Authentic Vietnamese Vibe.I would rate 10/10 for Decor.The food is good. They also have have branch in Hamilton.Both of them are better than the Vietnamese restaurant in Taupo.I have travelled around North Island but nothing beats Vietnamese food in Auckland.

have been wanting to try this place for a while as i’ve been getting recommendations on instagram. it is a very busy restaurant popular with locals. beef pho had nice broth, not too oily, good portion of beef and noodles. creamy chicken curry was very nice. i recommend crispy cauliflower for starters as portions are big and quite filling. i was disappointed with the service though. not once did anyone ask how our food was even though the waiter walked past us many times. he was being very attentive to the table next to us who arrived later. at some point, it was kinda obvious they were ignoring our table.

Super quick service! Get the tofu it was amazing and beat my chicken meal. Sauces are incredible too would have been happy with that and some of the fragrant rice for the side even Dangerous!Dangerous expectations to match for next time we're up in the north island thanks team!
