Viet – 14 Kensington St, Chippendale Tucked away at the entrance to the vibrant Spice Alley, Viet offers both indoor and outdoor seating - the latter perfect for people watching whilst you dine. The Cambodian Pork Ribs with Asian slaw ($35) was meaty and tasty, but just shy of falling off the bone. Not too shabby. The Whole Snapper Deep Fried with apple salad, nuts and chilli sauce (M.P. $35) was okay. The fish was not huge and the flesh a tad dry, but the salad and dressing tasty enough to keep us interested. Speaking of salads, the ones served with both dishes were slightly fatigued and undersized. Service was fine. One beer option on menu only (Singha) You can BYO wine for a corkage fee of $10 per bottle All in all, Viet is a solid choice Just don't expect fireworks - more like a steady, dependable flame.

An inconsistent meal with some good and bad dishes. We first started off with the satay chicken which was $18. The chicken was great. It was grilled and marinated well, while being relatively tender, and it paired well with the peanut sauce. We got the fried rice with crispy pork for $25. The fried rice was a highlight as the rice had a nice smoky aroma and flavour from the wok. The pork was crispy and tender. However, at $25, I did find the dish to be a bit expensive with the portion size. We also got the pho bo for $18. The pho was shockingly bad. The flavour of the broth was severely lacking in any sort of beefiness and it could be seen with the broth being very translucent and looking more like brown water. The menu claimed that the broth was cooked for 72 hours, but I doubt that. The portion size was also tiny. The bowl in general was quite small, there wasn’t much of anything and there wasn’t much meat, as there were only a few slices of beef and two minute meat balls. The noodles felt overcooked too, as they were too soft and broke apart easily. Overall, a good meal, apart from the pho.

Very friendly staff. There is a good variety of Vietnamese dishes with some Thai and Cambodian dishes. It is an excellent alternative to Spice Alley next door if you want to eat and drink alcohol together. We enjoyed our evening.

The restaurant is located on the uppermost floor of the building. The staff advised that the one on the ground floor is owned by the same owner but had a different kitchen and different menu. This service of this restaurant was wonderful. The staff was very friendly and professional. The food quality was very good and dishes were well plated. The appetizer combo was tasty and flavorful. Love each and every bites. The environment was cozy. The price was reasonable. A hidden gem in the alley.
