Benjamin's house

Bairnsdale's go-to Asian eatery for banh mi, khao soi and Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese dishes.

Cosy, well-decorated regional Asian eatery with a long connecting dining space and outdoor courtyard, casual enough for a quick lunch and warm enough for a proper dinner.

A rare authentic Asian menu for regional Gippsland, with vegan and plant-based options (tofu mushroom banh mi), boba and Thai milk tea, and a wine list including local wines.

Reviewers with direct experience of Thailand and Vietnam praise the khao soi and banh mi as close to the real thing, a rarity this far from Melbourne.

Reasonably priced for the region at roughly $20-30 a head, though a handful of reviewers felt specific dishes (a $25 prawn soup, a $14 spring roll entree) were thin on quantity for the price.
