Hanoi Pho Richmond

Authentic Hanoi-style halal pho on Victoria St, with herb-perfumed broth and pickled garlic.

Casual, no-frills Vietnamese eatery on Richmond's Victoria St. Functional and simple in décor. the focus is entirely on the food. A self-serve condiment station with fresh chilli, lemon and chilli oil adds a communal feel; pickled garlic pots on every table are a Hanoi signature touch. Warm and comfortable most of the year though some reviewers note the room runs cold in winter.

Fully halal-certified. one of Melbourne's few halal Vietnamese restaurants; authentic Northern/Hanoi-style pho with clear broth aromatic from star anise and cinnamon; pickled garlic pots on every table; self-serve condiment station; Quay (fried dough sticks) available as a side; homemade Vietnamese iced coffee; some vegan menu options

Serves authentic Northern/Hanoi-style pho with a clear, aromatic broth using star anise and cinnamon. distinctly different from the sweeter Southern Vietnamese style that dominates Melbourne. Multiple Vietnamese-background reviewers and Hanoi-style pho enthusiasts explicitly confirm the authenticity.

Broadly praised as excellent value. pho from around $16-$20 with generous portions. A handful of reviewers note the non-pho dishes (fried rice at $20) are less compelling on value; the pho itself is widely considered well-priced for the quality and size.
