Silverspoon - Sydney

I've been there several times with my boyfriend and my friends. I'm Vietnamese so I can say that the food originally taste like in Vietnam, especially the South of VN (around 70%). It reminds me to my mom food every time I come. I'd recommend pancake, little pancake, vermicelli beef if you just want a single dish. Otherwise you should try some dishes which we usually have with rice. For example, you can order caramelised pork + sweet and sour soup + fried rice (fried rice is just additional choice as you will have steam rice when ordering caramelised pork). This combo is typical one of Vietnamese meal. It would be suited for 2-3 people. However, my boyfriend came with his friends in some lunchtimes and it's not really as good as expected with the service. The food's quality was the same but it came out very late while they were not really busy. That's a point they should review and improve on.Totally it's good place to have good Vietnamese food. Suits for people like quiet place as me.. You take time and enjoy food. No need in rush.

Second time I have been to this restaurant and once again the food was amazing, great portions and so tasty. Good variety to choice from and nicely presented on your plate. Very friendly staff and always refilling your water glass. Love the decor. More people need to find this place and try it as you will keep going back for more.

I wanted a no-cook, casual and friendly Christmas dinner for fourteen as I live nearby. Never one for traditional Xmas food, I wanted some seafood. Also vegetarian. Owner Michael, graciously prepared a selection of Vietnamese rice paper rolls with the freshest of ingredients with vegetables and prawns, Ga satay:chicken satay skewers and my favourite, Chao tom; minced prawn wrapped around juicy sugar cane stalks.A variety of dipping sauces were provided plus coriander and sliced chilli. Packaging was eco-friendly and exquisite, using balsa wood containers and individual little waterproof cardboard pots for decanting the sauces. Everyone commented on the fragrance of fresh ingredients,delicious flavours and no-one left hungry. In all was good value for money. And very healthy eating.Would I do it again? You bet! And for any occasion or for any takeaway meal.

There is a fabulous Vietnamese restaurant in Castereagh Street Sydney, with a tremendous variety of dishes.Their Vietnamese pancake is light and crispy and filed with wonderful ingredients - seasonings and crunch. Their salt and pepper squid and chicken is great, along with the rice paper rolls which you make yourself from beautifully fresh ingredients ! We have been many times with small and large groups - everyone was happy with their dish !The service is very attentive, helpful and happy, two young people there are delightful ! If we have one hopefully helpful criticism is that the kitchen seem to need more staff - every time we have been there has been a very long wait - even when we have ordered the food ahead.Finish with a lovely Vietnamese iced coffee in Summer - great !

Three categories:Food - great flavour, very nicely presented.WIne- embarrassingly poor wine list with most wines unavailable. Pricing of the wines bizarre to say the least.Staff - friendly but still of the group that prefers to spend time on their smartphone rather than being aware of the customers.
