Vn Street Foods

Absolutely delicious Vietnamese spot, it has become a staple in my places to eat in Sydney. 2 minute walk from the station and next door to a variety of other great restaurants and services. Lots of seating as they also own the dining area next door, a variety of dishes, fresh produce and reasonable prices. Love this place! It does get a bit busier during popular times but it’s never been a problem for us :)

I went here last night after work (Thursday 20 June 2024) around 7pm to try out this restaurant. It was very crowded with a lot of people waiting to order but the service was quick and I got a table and the food came promptly. The food was good with a big portion and a reasonabe price however my sauce was a bit sweet, I hope they make it less sweet next time. I like the fresh chilli option at the counter where you can pick up your own chilli and extra chilli sauce for free. The gap between the tables was quite small which was hard for people to get in to their seats. In short, great service, nice foods and excellent price. Will come back here for sure. Update: I came back here yesterday (Friday 05 July 2024) with my friend to have lunch. My friend had Beef Pho which he seems to like it, and I had 'banh cuon'. My meal was average, not as good as the 'banh cuon' from Ba Oanh as the banh cuon here at VN Street food did not have mushroom in the middle of the rolls and the sauce in grill pork bowl was extremely sweet whilst banh cuon Ba Oanh was quite tasty with the mushrooms and the sauce was perfect.

First time visiting here and the food didn’t disappoint. The place was busy by the time we got there during dinner hours on a Sunday. They have a vast variety of options on their menu and my friend recommended bun cha with pork as it’s their signature. I went along and had bun cha with pork and I quite liked it. The pork was flavorful with the thick fish sauce and I dipped the vermicelli in it. The whole combination was appetizing to me. However, it got a tad too salty towards the end as i finished the pork with fish sauce alone. Should have complemented it with more mints and veggie but I wasn’t a fan of raw mint. My friends had other items on the menu and they all looked delicious, especially the dessert. Food was served quick and customer service was good. Overall this was an enjoyable dining experience and I would like to come back again to try more items on their menu.

Both noodle dish was amazing, the spring roll wasn’t that good. However I will be back I try our other dishes next time. Overall good food great value, friendly service.

Huge variety of options on the menu, ended up going with the classic beef pho and duck pancakes. Both were very good. Will definitely be back.

Flying in to Sydney from Melbourne on a delayed Jetstar flight we decided to dine out on our drive home rather than eat during the flight and VN Street Foods definitely featured on or short list of options. It’s about a 10 minute drive from where we parked at P3 domestic parking. We arrived a little before 6pm on the 27th of January 2024. There were plenty of free tables and only two small groups ordering before us. After about half a nanosecond of deliberation we ordered 2x highly affordable #30 Bun Cha then selected our table outside and sat down. Our meals were prepared and delivered within a couple of minutes. The offerings appeared quite generous and the flavours and aroma took me back in my mind to Hanoi but fortunately the seats at Vn Street Foods weren’t the low type found in Vietnam. The medley of grilled meat swimming in a sweet aromatic sauce/broth gave a smokey, slightly charred flavour. The generous side of herbs and greens made up of mint, coriander, perilla leaf and some leaves of butter lettuce were added to the bowl providing a freshness of flavour that complimented the charred meatiness. Throw in a portion of rice vermicelli noodles and the flavour party really starts. We enjoyed our meals immensely. The portion size is completely adequate and the bun Cha dish doesn’t leave you feeling heavy. I will definitely eat here again

I have never met or seen an ‘overweight’ Vietnamese before. Have you??? I think this may have a great deal to do with their diet! Hence, Vietnamese cuisine ranks high up on our most favourite cuisines. Visiting Sydney over Xmas & NY, our host suggested that we take a long drive to Marrickville to try out “VN Street Food”…lots of Vietnamese out that way apparently. We got there around lunch time (no bookings taken), and managed to get the last big table for 5, while one person lined up outside to place the food orders. Everyone ordered the grilled lemongrass pork bun cha, except me…I said, I must have VN’s ‘beef pho’. Surely that’s the measure of how good a Vietnamese restaurant is, right? (Wrong!) When the food arrived, I was really regretting not following the advice to get the Bun Cha. The Beef pho was tasty and nice, but the Bun Cha (which I managed to steal some scraps off peoples’ plates) was amazing. The grilled pork was deliciously cooked (slightly charred), the sauce was very tasty, and the variety of herbs piled on the platter was very generous. Next time, I am ordering the Bun Cha, no question about it! Well done VN Street Food. Very healthy food at very affordable prices. I can feel my waistline unchanged, but I was still feeling full. I will be back to Marrickville, despite the distances I have to travel.

First time come here. the place always pack. my vietnamese friend recommended me to try buncha and it was delicious. my friend ordered similiar to mine but her ones has boiled pork and tofu and she said it was not that good. big serving for price of $14.50. will come back to try their other food

What shocked me with the menu was how ridiculously cheap the dishes were! The portions were not those insanely small plate-sized ones, but your average for-one-sized plates. It made it so much easier for me to add two more sides to try out, alongside our main dishes. Dishes were categorised under rice paper rolls, sides, rice vermicelli, rice dishes and pho. I ventured out a little on the visit, ordering myself the steam sticky rice with stewed pork belly with egg. Full review: purplecuriosity.wordpress.com/2020/05/10/vn-street-foods/

There BunCha is fireeeeeeee. A must try when you visit here, but please eat it with a chopstick and add more chillies!!!

Australians don't use yelp, so don't be fooled: This place is always super crowded. It serves really great Northern Vietnamese cuisine. It's very tasty, my only beef with it was the meat. Northerners have a different seasoning, but it's kind of like how different areas have different seasoning as well in Vietnam. So it just wasn't what I was use to. And I didn't like the seasoning and I won't ever. But, theres plenty of options here and I don't think it's one to avoid even if your family is from the Central or South of Vietnam. And I love the concept of street food. We need more of that. Brining a little bit (the best bits) of Vietnam back to the urban areas is quite refreshing. I wouldn't necessarily come here again, but I would recommend it. My aunt had a problem with the meat as well, but my other two cousins had no complaints. I think it's worth a shot at trying. I also a korean blogger trying this place out: she got like everything. And it looked like she was having a great time.

New joint in Marrickville Illawarra road, along the street of many different Vietnamese restaurants. I like the concept of designing your own meal box and only doe $12! You start with picking your rice (brown, white or fried) then the main meat, I got caramelised pork belly and flavoured egg, a veggie side, salad side and a soup. Very good for a quick feed on the go, not much room for eating in but they do home delivery via menu log. There's other dishes on the menu, but went for the meal box as it was easier. The dishes are simple and taste good, I would go for back here again for lunch if I didn't feel like a pork roll.

It's refreshing to see Vietnamese Restaurant serving other than the usual Vietnamese staples. I really like the idea of designing your own bento box, but the novelty wears off after a few visits. First, you choose your rice, then choose your meat, vegetables, salad and soup. The food was really nice, all of the elements I've tasted were tasty. Pork Betel Leaf was really nice with the pork wrapped in Betel Leaf, the Caramalised Pork Belly was sweet and full of flavour. The Papaya Salad was sweeter than my usual Papaya Salad, but it's refreshing and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Stir-fried Kangkong with garlic is exactly as described, it was delicious on its own and when combined with other elements. I would've given them 5-star if it wasn't because of the foul smelling bile wafting as we're eating on one uneventful night because of poorly cleaned vomit from previous diner (serviettes with sweeper and dustpan is not how you clean puke with!). Not to make matters worst, they also forgot the Pho I ordered until I reminded them after waiting a long time for the popular Vietnamese noodle soup. It was worth the wait, the broth was full of flavour and it was quickly became my kids' favourite thing to eat! Service was basic and at other occasions my experience has always been pleasant. We've all been there where despite all your effort everything that can go wrong went wrong, definitely understandable, so yes I would still come back!

I'm soooooooo happy I finally found bun cha in Sydney!! This quickly became my favorite dish during my visit to Vietnam and i love that I can go to this super popular and delicious restaurant to get my travel nostalgia.

I love the Bún Đu Mm Tôm here, very similar to in Vietnam, but the plate is much bigger. I would recommended this place to all my friends :)
