"I saw this place in the Michelin guide and was so excited to try a Michelin-recommended Vietnamese. I love Vietnamese food, especially pho and summer rolls. Sadly this place had an extremely disappointing offering. The pho was astoundingly bland, the broth had dismally little flavour. The best pho I've ever had (outside of south-east Asia) was in the chain, Pho, which I honestly can't believe I'm writing. The summer rolls here was also really disappointing. The filling was so boring and the dipping sauce was no more interesting than a hoisin you can buy in a supermarket. Thankfully the prices weren't terrible here, but I wouldn't recommend it to anybody. Maybe their non-vegetarian food is more flavoursome? I can't comment. But the things I tried were staggeringly bland. Sorry, Au Lac."

I tried one of their spicy soups and it was delicious. The price was reasonable and the service was very good. Will visit again asap.

I have mixed feelings about this place. I ordered takeout, so I cannot comment on the interior of the restaurant, but it appeared nice and cozy.

Vietnamese food is one of my favorite cuisines in the world, so I was delighted to discover a charming neighborhood restaurant hidden away in the area.

I ordered delivery on a Tuesday evening and I must say, the beef pho was absolutely delicious and perfectly seasoned. The packaging was also done really well, so there were no drippy containers to deal with. View menu

I recently visited Au Lac with a bunch of friends in February. What a time I had, reasonably priced menu with 11/10 taste. Would definitely recommend to a friend, nice cosy environment. Looking forward to when I next return!

I went with a group of friends everything was 5*! Service was great, food was delicious fair priced. Homemade lemon was just what I needed along side my meal to finish we shared the banana toffee dessert it was to die for! 10/10 would recommend.

The restaurant was full when we arrived so they took our number and gave us a call 15 mins later to let us know a table was free. They recommended some great dishes and taught us the best way to eat it to taste all the flavors. The owner was super friendly and interested in our thoughts. We’ll definitely be going back, we had a lovely Friday evening in Au Lac. View menu

Really nice, family-owned restaurant. I would recommend the Set B menu (if you’re sharing) or the flaming beef, but everything on the menu is exceptional and served with a warming smile. I hope this restaurant is around forever, as it’s one of the few authentic Vietnamese restaurants left in town, and in London generally. Super nice customer service too. Very attentive and polite. My guest once left an expensive Burberry scarf behind, I went by the next day and they had put it to the side and had been waiting for me. Can’t fault this restaurant. Go!

Me and boyfriend ate here for the first time recently after deciding we wanted to branch out and eat more varied food.... We are going straight back to our old trusted restaurants! We ate here on a Friday evening, the place was moderately busy but not overpacked and we were served quickly. We ordered the set menu but swapped out some dishes and they were very accommodating of this. We both thought the food was great until a short time after getting home and both of us having the worst food poisoning of our lives! As a relatively new couple we now know each other very very well. Never ever again will we ever step through the door. Be warned people!
