AI Summary

Brunswick's Vietnamese kitchen renowned for coeliac-safe banh mi and generous vegan options.

Casual, warm Sydney Road spot with a laid-back, funky vibe; counter ordering with clearly labelled condiments, and a back dining area near a mural for larger groups.

Extensive coeliac-safe gluten-free menu including GF banh mi rolls and GF desserts (eclair, tiramisu), a full vegan menu including vegan pho and spring rolls, allergen-labelled sauces on the tables, and catering for functions up to 50 people.

Praised by many as genuinely Vietnamese, with owner and head chef Thu personally shaping catering menus; a smaller group of reviewers found the broth bland and less authentic than other Melbourne Vietnamese kitchens.

Most reviewers call it reasonably priced for generous portions, though a couple of reviews flagged a $25 pho and small side portions as overpriced on a bad night.
