"This has quickly become one of my favourite places in Geneva. They offer a small menu of Vietnamese dishes but those are really really well done. Every time I go I am terribly pleased.The food is really great, be it Vietnamese soups or noodles, and big portions for a really cheap price for Geneva (most expensive dishes in the place being 20CHF for a huge bowl of food). They offer "menu of the day" for lunch during the week as well, for 17CHF IIRC, but I have never taken it.I suggest either the 20CHF spicy soup (sorry I can't remember the Vietnamese names of those) which has a single page of the menu dedicated to it, or the beef + spring rolls noodles dish. I have had both on several occasions and always been great. Service is always quite fast.The place is managed by a senior Vietnamese couple. They do not speak any English and almost no French, so booking a place by phone might be a challenge to say the least. It is a small place, I think it can only fit 20 people at most (if at all), so it is often crowded. They are also sometimes closed for no apparent reason, it's not the first time I go there just to be disappointed at the entrance. But believe me, it is worth trying."

Unassuming, friendly atmosphere and pleasant and efficient staff. Few things on the menu but all of them simple and delicious for a more than reasonable price.

The Mekong Restaurant, Rue de Carouge 73 in Genève (close to the trams top Augustins) is serving every day in the evening (18-22.30) ans week days at noon also. Chineese noodle soup is a must.

It's a really nice place to try the delicious topical food from Vietnam! If you want to have dinner its really important to make a reservation there or by telephone. I highly recommend the place.

Nous avons été choquées du service ou de son inexistence ainsi que de nos plats.Nous avons voulu mettre cela sur la barrière de la langue mais là c’était de la mauvaise volonté pure. Lenteur, absence de sourire.Nous avons demandé deux feuilles de salade car il y en avait peu dans le plat et la cuisinière nous à presque aboyé dessus qu’il faudrait la payer (au prix de la salade dite « mêlée » donc…). Nous avons terminé nos plats sans.Dommage.Le Cho Lon est légèrement plus cher mais offre un super service et des produits frais en quantité suffisante.

Once a very interesting place with incredible alternative staff and authentic asian vibrations, has now fallen into a pit along with the management. On a beautiful dark winter evening in Geneva when all you wish is a steaming Mekong hot pot, with a couple of dietery requests such as hold the fish sauce and to be refused - you question why they even bother to have any compassionate ornament decor to lure you in. An absolute fail for a high potential space in a supposedly international town just hungry for something good. Terrible doesn't even come to describe this place.

We wanted to eat some Vietnamese food and we decided to eat here. The food is acceptable but nothing special and after reading all the good reviews we were really disappointed. The most annoying and deceiving part was the service. The man was alone to serve all the tables and lacked completely of politeness: he did not say Hi when we arrived and he was really unpleasant, unbelievable! He was really unpleasant with all the customers. I really do not suggest people to go there, there are many other Vietnamese restaurant in Geneva where the food is much better and the service is more professional and friendly.
