I've seen many people walk into this place mistaking it for Chinese. Mien Tay 5 is the most authentic Vietnamese restaurant I've come across in London. They don't do all street food must the ones they do almost take me back to Saigon. The pho and bun bo Hue spicy noodle soup broth is really good along with most starters. Oh and the mango salad is so yummmmm

Well, what can I say.... Exceptional Vietnamese cuisine. Had pho with beef (no. 129) and vermicelli noodles with chicken, chili and lemongrass (no. 150). Top quality and authenticity. Topped with a Vietnamese drip coffee. Wow! Must try!

I normally order through Deliveroo but went to check out the shop. The broth is so yummy Almost drank the whole bowl of broth after finishing the noodles. I ordered the spicy beef noodles and the beef is so tender and well marinated. Also, the spring rolls are very fresh and crispy. The staff were also super nice to us! Will definitely come back!

They have an incredible menu, lots of choice for vegetarians. I think about the summer rolls at least once a day Everything is really fresh, reasonably priced and the service is amazing

Had a wonderful birthday meal here. I am a regular delivery ordered, however love to come in when I can to eat the food fresh. I wanted my friends to experience my favourite local place so organised my birthday dinner here. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our big group and even arranged the tables with flowers. We all enjoyed our food a lot and the service was great. Thank you all so much and compliments to the chef as always.
