    Fish Curry and Ginger Apple Detox
    Ashwini I.

    Cute, great wifi, close to Arc de Triomf and the Picasso Museum. I had the Ginger Apple Detox and Fish Curry. Pretty tasty! The waitress was very nice and had an english menu.

    This rating is for the phô I had a few days ago. It was simple and fresh with beef and noodles and all the basic ingredients that usually come along with phô, they have a nice selection of sauces to go along with it as well. The service was nice enough and quick. Would definitely recommend the phô!

    A little local vietnamese shop. You order you meal and pay at the cashier at the counter. There is English menu available. You can see the chef prepare you bowl of pho. The beef pho I have, the broth have too much pepper for me. It could use more beef flavor. It's not a big shop, just two long table with bench chairs.

    The resto was cute and clean, but the pho soup too light or tasteless. Chicken satay was ok!

    Food was fine, but not as good as the SF bay area. The waiters were nice and the place is really clean. The atmosphere of the place is nice. In case u want something different than tapas when u r close to the Sagrada Familia. But if u want authentic Vietnamese, u may need to go to Vietnam or somewhere where there r a lot of Vietnamese people.

    This was our break from Spanish food and I have no regrets coming here. We had bun noodles with spring rolls and curry chicken. it was not the most aunthentic asian food but loved the fusion feel of it. It was really full so getting a table for more than 2 people can be an issue. the decor, the vibe of the place are awesome! the prices are reasonable too!

    Good place to find vegan options in Gracia. It isn't the best place I've eaten Vietnamese cuisine at but it is the best in the general area.

    Needed some veggies and really missing Asian food traveling in Spain (there's only so much bread,…read moremeat, & patata bravas I can eat) Also mending an ill stomach, I was excited to find this restaurant close to La Sagrada Familia. Turns out the owner is Cantonese-Chinese (possibly by way of Vietnam?), he wasn't entirely talkative, but this explains is culinary attention to flavor and quality of ingredients (knowing Cantonese techniques - but this actually explains how the actual food is- more about that below). Most of his extremely nice waitstaff were Nepali. Everyone communicated very well in Spanish & English. They seemed to have a lot of regular customers, some even hugging the who I assumed was the General Manager. I was craving a refreshing cold noodle salad and crunchy vegetables, the €9.50 Bun Bo Xao sounded great. It had rice noodles, lettuce, cucumber, fresh mint, topped with fried onions & peanut. I ordered the beef version. A small Vegetable triangle Spring Roll was complimentary at the beginning of the meal. The bowl was generously filled with all the fresh ingredients. What's different than how I've had this dish in NYC and LA (& I assume dishes are tweaked for the Spanish palette and style here), was that the lemongrass beef was stir-fried with a light gravy sauce (and not grilled and dry/nom-sauce), and the noodles were warm and tossed in the sauce also. The noodles were Mei Fun (rice vermicelli) and not the round spaghetti-like noodles that's usually used for the dish. There's usually Nuoc Cham sauce that comes with this dish, which you pour the "Nuoc Cham dressing" over everything & toss. However, since the noodles were already covered in the gravy sauce from the beef (with a pool at the bottom), it wouldn't have made sense anyway. Overall I was super happy to have noodles and food that tasted good. I saw a lot of tables order the same sauteed Lemongrass beef as a side dish. So- HOW do I know that this more Chinese than Vietnamese? The gravy-like sauces for the meats (& not primarily grilled meats and seafood), No typical condiments and ingredients like Nuoc Cham, pickled carrots & daikon, Siracha, Hoisin Sauce, & garlic chili set out at the table to customize the Pho. And no typical Vietnamese noodles (sounds like the other reviews about the Pho). I wonder if they have Vietnamese coffee...they can do Flan! A good bridge for cultures. Overall they have to cater to a predominantly Spanish Clientele to survive - basically ALL of the tables were eating Fried Rice (which looked like fast-food style, and a dish I actually haven't seen much at Vietnamese Restaurants). The restaurant is decorated very beautifully- BUT all of the ceiling tile work, wooden bar carvings of dragons- are decorations for a Chinese Restaurant (speaking from family experience business!). Overall, it's 4 stars & a decent experience for me- being what it is. I would come lowering your expectations- it's more like Chinese-light leaning Vietnamese Food. The staff did say that the owner is very secretive about his Pho recipe (I really hope that it's not from a boullion & spice powder mix). Will have to try it the next time I visit I guess - BUT knowing that they don't give you a plate of fresh bean sprouts, Thai basil, lime wedge, possibly some jalepenos - then I probably won't like my Pho (light & safe) experience.. & I get it, How do you train customers to prepare a bowl of Pho at their tables, without high overhead costs? Too much of a learning & communication curve. But good luck to them, good to have options in that neighborhood & Barcelona in general. Ran into some of the workers on their 3hr break later and they kindly showed me to the Metro. I want to note the Spanish translation of cucumber is so interesting - "papaya green."

    We were craving for Pho so we decided to go Vietnamese. Found this close to our hostel. We orders…read morethe Menu 3 which was good for 3 people. The foods came in one by one which is a nice touch. The appetizers were really good. The place was clean, the service was great. The only thing is the Pho, is not the Hanoi Pho that we always had. But still good.

It's about a 6 minute taxi ride from there. We were seated in the back room with the writing covering the walls. The front bar seemed a little livelier but we took what was offered. Husband had house red wine (3.50 euros) and I had sangria (4.50 euros). Good pours for both. We started with the red shrimp (gambillos) in a lemongrass sauce, about 6 shrimp for 15 euros. Then grilled octopus (which was very tender) over mash potatos and snap peas for 15 euros. We also had a side of grilled bread (4 pieces) for 3.5. We also ordered the Pepita beef with mash potato but took home for dinner as we were full (18 euros). We finished with the homemade corn ice cream with carmelized popcorn and raspberries, which was very unique at 6.5. We added our names to the wall to top off the meal. Service was quick and friendly. Total bill was 85 euros including 5 drinks. It was our best meal in Barcelona so far.
