Urban Saigon

Urban Saigon is a little slice of Vietnam found on a suburban street corner in Yeronga, serving authentic Vietnamese street food for breakfast, lunch and dinner.     

Open every day except Monday, this tiny eatery is winning over locals with flavoursome fare from banh mi baguettes to beef noodle soup. Patrons can sit inside, with a handful of tables available, outside on the footpath or takeaway.

The concise menu includes Vietnamese favourites like pho (beef and chicken noodle soup), grilled pork chops or crispy skin chicken with steamed rice, and rice vermicelli salads with lemongrass chicken.

Try Vietnamese chicken fried rice, barbecue pork fried rice, spring rolls (pork or veggie) and the highly-recommended rice paper rolls, made fresh with prawns or pork.

Drink wise, there's Vietnamese iced coffee, coconut water and bubble tea with grass jelly or pearls.
