    Golden fluffy omelette filled with shredded vegetables and protein, garnished with fresh herbs and served with a dipping sauce.

    I've done most of the Vietnamese restaurants in East London and this is by far my favorite. Delicious authentic dishes at a great price . Try the pancakes or belly pork noodles 🍜

    Food was great, and good value cocktails. Dined on the festival offer - some dishes weren't included but was told about it on ordering. Good size portions so good value even without the deal.

    The food was delicious but it was the waitress who made everything perfect, taking trouble to guide us through the menu and advise what would be a good selection (it was!). Generous portions so had for dinner the next day too. Will be back - thank you!

    Lovely authentic Vietnamese food that was cooked and presented to a high standard. Pretty large portion and really good price for London. The staff / owner family was so cute, welcoming and the restaurant had a relaxing, quiet atmosphere, perfect to escape the rowdy streets of North London. We’ve been twice and they never disappoint. Highly recommended!

    Average quality Vietnamese restaurant. Food just okay, nothing too special or better value for money. All portions are average size. Staff are friendly and attentive. It’s a Saturday but extremely quiet and almost empty.

    It was so loud grouping a table of 20 guys taking drugs and drinking their drinks, all as if we weren’t there, shocking! The women took our mains order and came out with one dish, we asked 10 minutes later where our food was as one of us had nearly finished eating and out vegetables were getting cold and she said ‘I thought you just ordered one’ why would a table of 4 order one dish? Also, the starters consisted of basically the same ingredients as the main. Maybe we ordered badly but we ended up with rice noodles and salad for starters and rice noodles and salad for main. We took family that had flown in and unfortunately had a bad experience.

    We had a delicious meal at Viet Hoa - we shared starters (the squid was particularly good) and two main courses of sizzling prawns in chilli and lemongrass and sizzling beef in chilli and black bean sauce. Both were excellent, but the beef was exceptionally tender and I would definitely recommend this to anyone. Only slight criticism was that the starters didn't arrive together - it didn't matter because we were sharing, but it would have been a bit annoying if not because there was quite a gap between the two starters arriving. Exceptional value with The Fork and friendly service. Will absolutely visit again.
