    Had a set lunch for 2 Grilled pork noodles was cold. Pho ga was uninspiring; broth was not to be raved about. A bit of a let down.

    MOC kitchen is a lovely authentic Vietnamese restaurant, a proper hole in the wall with amazing food and right in the centre of town.

    The salad was s really fresh, my goat and noodles was great. My yuzu frizzy drink was really refreshing. Service was very good and personal, we would certainly come again.

    A casual dining experience, freshly cooked and very tasty Vietnamese food. I always dine there when visiting the theatre locally, as I know I’ll get good food, service and be out on time.

    This was our 4th visit over the past year. Sadly, the last 2 visits have simply not lived up to previous meals, both in quality and value for money. some of the spring rolls were a bit charred. My spicy beef was only spicy when I ate the few slices of hot chilies sprinkled over the top. Both the beef and noodles had no extra flavour at all. The service was still smiley, still quick...but the overall feeling now is that MOC has been spoiled by success.

    This little restaurant has more than expected.seating just off the tunnel where it is situated. Service is efficient if not overly attentive, and the ambience has a cantina feel about it but is comfortable and flexible for events from work to romance. The food however shines through. Starters were good but main courses were excellent, clay pot dishes being particularly noteworthy.

    Loved the way its tucked under the Arches. Right in the heart of the hustle and bustle of Embankment and yet quiet and relaxing atmosphere.

    Always busy and always quick service. Exactly what you need for a quick lunch but if you want to tarry they let you sit and chat so best of both worlds. Good is always excellent and good value for money.

    Enjoyed the food and service. Dishes came in good time. Maybe chose wrong dish which I would have liked spicier but generally good. Quite a small space and we had someone with a very loud voice close by. However, we still really enjoyed it. Very handy for the theatre next door.

    This small, cozy space delivered an attractive array of sharing dishes, all of which were freshly made. Green papaya salad spring rolls, salt and pepper squid, aubergine, plus some hot crispy chicken, every one delicious. Thought some of the portions on the stingy side for the prices, but accept this is the middle of tourist eating houses. Service was swift and friendly. We booked and it's advisable during mealtimes.

    It was a brilliant find. Great food and service. Fresh ingredients and no fuss when the drink wasn’t as expected. Will visit again!

    A lovely family run place. All the food was absolutely delicious, hot, fresh and brought in a timely way. Staff were friendly and helpful but not intrusive. It’s small and the tables are close together creating a lively ambience but some may find it a little tight. My only negative was the ‘ginger with lemongrass’ fizzy drink I ordered that turned out to be ginger beer with ice and some sticks of lemongrass in the top. Not as interesting as I’d anticipated but still a good enough drink! We visited at 5.30 on a winter Saturday for the pre-theatre set menu (good value) and it was filling up fast at that time. I’ll definitely return and would recommend MOC, we had a lovely meal.

    It’s a really tiny place, so you have to squeeze in. I ordered the special pho but nothing special taste like instant noodle I get from Asian supermarket with tiny piece of meats! For nearly £20 paid I am expecting a lot more than an effectively £2 cost meal. There are lots of better options than this place in London unfortunately, I won’t come again. Lastly the waiter will try to upsell, wow, I’m surprised.

    Lovely staff, food and drinks. A good pre-theatre deal until 8 pm, which is quite unusual to find.

    Absolutely tasteless food. Convenient location but had to ask for extra flavour for my pad Thai as it was just a bit spicy but with absolutely no flavour and the chicken skewers were blobs of reconstituted meat with a flaccid mushroom on top- shocking. When Vietnamese food is some of the most flavoursome in the world

    Cramped interior. Busy and noisy. Had to wait for 10mins before they could seat. Beef Pho is good. Just cramped seating.

    Gone down in quality since the old pre-Covid days. Been there twice since and both times just hasn’t been worth the money. Shan’t be going again
