    The dining area
    Maureen L.

    Quick, delicious food. Sometimes there is a little wait to get in but well worth the wait! It's in a little courtyard downstairs -food truck excellence.

    Chicken Pho & Prawn Laksa
    Steven W.

    I'm probably going to get some hate for this, but the food here is just ok at best. My expectations for Asian food are generally higher than most since I grew up on Southern California where Asian food is abundant across it. Phat Phuc Noodles unfortunately falls within the middle range for me - it's ok at best. Ordered the Chicken Pho and Shrimp Laksa. Chicken Pho in all honesty would be on the lower end when you toss it into the competition of anything in Orange County, CA. The broth lacks a lot of depth and flavor. The only good thing about it is that the chicken is meaty. The Laksa is better than the Pho that I ordered, but it lacked richness. If I had to choose between the two though, I would go with the Laksa. Honestly it's hard to say this, but it might be worth it to just skip out on the Asian food in London when you're visiting from CA. You'll likely better off getting it back at home.

    Their absolutely delicious beef pho

    Came here on a chilly day for an early dinner and I was very impressed by this place. Coming from the Bay Area in the US, there is an abundance of pho shops--it seems like you can find one on each corner. Here in the UK, it was a bit harder to find a good vietnamese place. I feel lucky to have found Phat Phuc. The atmosphere was fun and extremely unique, as it was an al fresco dining experience. Seating is limited, so I ended up sitting at the bar and made some good conversation with the cooks. Very pleasant experience. I am definitely coming back whenever I need a Vietnamese fix. Would definitely recommend to anyone!

    Sooo good! Came here for a rainy sunday dinner. Fast service, friendly staff and grrat tasting food. Its great for a cheap meal in Chelsea!

    This place is awesome. Everything here was delicious. The service was really quick too. All the seating is outside so get yourself a drink to cool down.

    I stumbled upon this place and ended up loving it. I ordered the chicken coconut curry with egg noodles and it was so flavorful. It's great place to relax or have a quick grab n go. It's in a little rain tent outside and it's super cute!

    Duck Pancakes

    This place was our first stop in London! The Laksa is so good! We had never tried duck pancakes before, delicious! The staff was exceptionally friendly, and helped us on what to order, since we have never had Laksa before

    Beef laksa

    Great beef laksa, soup base was very tasty and the beef was good quality. Very tasty and made with fresh herbs and spices.

    Very nice small noodle bar with good and flavorful soups at very good prices. I had a Laksa with shrimps that I liked a lot and it was a good portion well balanced between soup, noodles and shrimps.

    Pho!
    Lyn Y.

    This place was exactly what we expected, walk up counter service, cold beers in a cooler, and delicious Pho! Very informal and welcoming atmosphere. The owner was really kind and took our order promptly and served us quickly. We were really happy with our pho's. I had the veggie tofu and my husband had the beef pho and both were scrumptious and very flavorful. The broth was just a bit too salty for our preferences but still absolutely delicious! Thanks so much for such a warm welcome for pho in London!

    The laksa has nice aromatic flavour but next time I am going to try the pho as I am more of a pho girl.

I don't think I'll be back, and I wouldn't recommend this unless you were extremely uncultured and didn't know what real Asian food was like. Non-Asian folks may love this place - so take other reviews with a grain of salt (I personally am shocked at how highly rated this place is). The missus rates it lower than me (3/5 from me), so I give this place her rating cuz we were both... very sad about this. Missus and I showed up at 4pm on a Saturday in May. It was hella busy when we arrived, but quickly emptied out after we started getting our food. This place claims its Thai but they only have the spice part down... I doubt this is actually authentic. Maybe it's Southeast Asian inspired?? If anyone else knows please comment. The portion sizes are predictably small, and I don't think we ordered enough for two to be full, even though it was quite pricey (given the portion size). We ordered the rump cap, curry, clay pot, and a lager to drink. Nothing was that memorable - the rump cap was well made but the curry definitely made us question the cultural authenticity of this place. I wouldn't order the curries here - the meat dishes seem decent though. The ambiance in here is definitely loud, since sound carries - any conversation gets amplified and you can hear every word - even the annoying laughs or coughs are at volume 11 (so try to keep your voices down!). There's a background music track but it's faint and you can only barely hear it when anyone is talking. The restaurant layout is very good for communal dining, but really bad for intimate settings. If I were a dating man (I'm not), I wouldn't bring a date here. The service is also extremely slow - from when we ordered to when we got all of our food was roughly 45 min - which, given how hungry we were, and how empty the place was - inexcusable and really disappointing. Note: mandatory 12.5% service charge on top of your meal.

    Food was excellent. Unique flavours and very well priced. Service was also very good, great…read morerecommendations. Lovely vibe in the restaurant.

There were three in our group which was suggested one starter and one main per person. I had the Gozen bento which was sashimi of high grade along with salad, sticky rice and miso soup for £20. It was divine. I also sampled some of my partner's tempura bento. Prepared well it was crispy and fresh. The third in our party had sashimi which was super fresh and delicious. We shared pork gyoza and agedashi tofu. Amazing. Everyone left happy with quality and price. They have a stellar drink menu from beer to shochu, sake and cocktails. Everything was on point. The dessert menu was tempting but everyone was too full to order. I will definitely be back for an enjoyable date night or even to entertain colleagues. A great place without breaking the bank.
