"Vegans are well catered for at this dinky restaurant hidden away near Embankment including a pre theatre option (excluding dessert). The mushroom hotpot was a good comfort food option. The curry was a rich texture but really mild in flavour and would have benefited from a pop of green. Everything was nicely done maybe not the best version of each dish that we've tried in London but still a good option if you're after Vietnamese in this part of town. It's a bit pricier than say Kingsland Road for what you get but then you're right in the city centre. The dining chairs really scrape on the floor so could use some of those foam pads to soften the acoustics! I'd advise against the outside seating as it's under a railway arch so no fault of the restaurant's but the aroma is what you'd imagine."

"Vietnam House is one of my favourite restaurants in Edinburgh. Every time I go I love it even more. This review is from my last visit yesterday. I went with three friends and we all ordered something different. We had the fresh spring roles which are by far one of the best spring roles I've had in my life. As for the mains I had a Beef Pho which is absolutely amazing! I added the chilli sauce and it was perfect! Iva Stefanova Stancheva went for the Bo Kho Saigon's Beef Stew which she finished in a record time and said it was really good. However, she also said it was like a soup so don't expect a very thick stew. Simona Troppova had a braised pork in caramel sauce which I've had before and loved it! It's quite sweet so don't go for it if you don't like your meat sweet. My other friend went for the Bun Cha Gio noodles but vegetarian style. He really liked it. As for the desserts we had a green melon ice cream which was absolutely amazing and served in half frozen melon. It's obviously home made and tastes great! My friend had a Vietnamese dessert which is served with lychee, pineapple jelly and basil seeds. It's really weird but yummy weird! If you like trying new things get this dessert and you won't regret. The ambience is always very relaxed and the staff is friendly and they know the menu inside out. They can recommend dishes if you struggle to choose. If you haven't been here yet book a table and go and I guarantee you won't regret it! The only fault of this place is that it's open only for dinner!"

"The dining experience was pleasant, with quick service and a very helpful waitress. Although the restaurant wasn't particularly busy during our visit, many customers appeared to use it for takeout as well as dining in. We would definitely recommend this place and would gladly return if we were in Greenwich again."
