Viet Kitchen

The place was easy to find and had a ramp for accessibility I was on crutches at the time. The service we got from our big family was accommodating and helped us be comfortable in our stay. We ordered mainly the dishes on rice so it was easiest to pick what everyone wanted. The pork chops on rice was marinaded well and served up in big portions to match the price. My only concern is that some of the side dishes were too overpriced for the amount you actually get, if that can be looked into I think it would be a great for value! All in all the experience was good and would come back to taste the other meals. Keep it up team! Please review some of the prices on the menu : remember we are still on dominion road not viaduct hehe.

Good: - Decent Quantity - Clean Bad: - Menu had limited meat options - Menu had strange naming. For instance, they didn't name the pho as simply pho, but something along the lines of beef noodle soup. Very confusing - Expensive - Pho costed $18.60. Sub-par quality of the pho did not justify the price point - Music didn't match eastern vibe of the restaurant - Summer rolls' skin was very dry and thick. We returned it and they didn't replace them with better ones. The waiter denied that the summer rolls were kept overnight - Pho beef was not rare enough - Pho soup didn't have a strong enough herbal taste. Simply tasted savoury. Needs a richer flavour - Pho noodles tasted mediocre and had little to no texture - Waiter was very awkward. Randomly distanced himself from me when taking the order and wasn't very polite

Authentic French Vietnamese experience ! Stunning taste , great range of menu options , lovely cocktails. Limited vegan options ..Papaya salad is excellent. Plenty of seating inside and outside.

We have eaten at Viet Kitchen many times, which serves great, authentic Saigon food. The menu has plenty to choose from. The lemongrass chicken Vietnamese Baguette is a yummy delicious starter to share but one can also finish it as a main . Pho is a must have and a dish that never disappoint. The chilli hit and flavoursome herbs are delightful. Relaxing atmosphere and friendly service. Will definitely return again. Thank you.

Worst Vietnamese restaurant in Auckland New Zealand. Over priced, Beyond rude, dismissive and arrogant managerial behavior, smallest portion ever and not very good taste with too much MSG. Kept falling asleep on the drive back home at 3:00 pm. Fresh roll's iceberg lettuce was not fresh and old. Only 2 pieces for $9.50. Basic Pho Bo beef noodle soup is $18.60 and portion is small, uses very cunning bowl where it looks very large but is far too shallow and without much noodles inside. Also charge 2% extra for Credit Card payment. without proper calculation or listing of specific prices of items ordered Would not recommend to anyone trying Vietnamese food to go here

busy place even on sunday. food are more than authentic. they always surprise u when your dish coming. love the coconut or sweet curry flavor duck. never tried dis kind of duck before, and it just blew my mind. lemongrass chicken salad is also suprising. Pho just the basic vietnamese dish which u can figure out the level of authentic.

Authentic Saigon style food. I lived in Saigon for 4 years. This place is as close as it gets to being there. The food was fabulous presented well and tasted even better. This is a family run business. You won't be disappointed.

Totally overpriced, I order the main, king salmon and the dish is smaller than my salad, 28 dollars for a tiny piece of salmon. I didn’t know that they were fine cuisine. The soup next to me was nearly half of the price and double of size.

Finally popped in with hubby to try their food. : I ordered Spicy Beef Noodle Bun Bo Hue The broth was full of flavour, best I’ve tasted in Auckland so far. Every time have Vietnamese food I never venture outside my phó, so this dish I would personally highly recommend. Just right amount of spiciness which I loved. Friendly and attentive staff Nice simple clean decor inside Good sized dish/bowl Viet Namese coffee - I liked but couldn’t justify the price of $8.90 : Hubby ordered Claypot Seafood fried rice with Prawn and squid. He was looking forward to the flavour of charcoal claypot like he had in VN but was let down. Fried rice lacked flavour not cooked in clay pot his prawns were shrimps and veges were from the frozen packet : Ordered Banh Xeo for takeaway for my mum, disappointed to find three shrimps in the dish Staff were friendly and attentive. We provided feedback about the Claypot fried Rice and they were apologetic, explained how council did not allow them to cook fried rice in Claypot due to hygiene reasons. Restaurant decor was refreshing and clean, great atmosphere. Will be back to try other dishes on the menu

Very nice clean and cozy place, friendly staff who can give appropriate suggestions. Food didn’t take long and was delicious, mild but with hot sauce on side. Will definitely come back here if we are around.
