I am so grateful to the beautiful manager, Hong for bringing her authentic Vietnamese cuisine to Ballajura. Truly goes above and beyond to maintain a high level of standard from their freshly made-to-order delicious food to the generous portions and stellar service. One of my favourite things I love about this place is at closing time, the family and friends gather for food and laughs. That’s a beautiful balance. Your true dedication to deliver consistently superior dishes is a direct reflection of this review and my personal experience. The Laksa is beautiful, the pad Thai had the authentic flavour and the fried rice and steak is an absolute winner for my partner who has a big appetite. Thank you for bringing your love of food to Ballajura! You will be seeing more of us!

Tried Pho Ba Hien recently, a small but welcoming Vietnamese restaurant that opened in March. The decor is simple, with green walls, straw hats, and a small altar that gives it an authentic touch. I ordered the Combination Pho (Pho Dac Biet) with rare beef, brisket, tripe, tendon, meatball, and oxtail (special addition from the owner). The meat variety was excellent (9/10), and the oxtail was the highlight. The broth was decent but a little bland and could use more flavour depth (8.5/10). Avocado smoothie was refreshing but too much ice and not enough creaminess (8.5/10). Service was fantastic — food arrived very quickly (10/10), and the owner was welcoming. Atmosphere was relaxed and casual (8.5/10). Overall: 9/10. Would definitely recommend if you’re in Ballajura!

Love it! We ordered Pho with the lot. The pho was so yummy, and the beef was really tender. We will definitely visit again
