Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Ăn Là Ghiền offers a lively, authentic Vietnamese experience, particularly noted for its fresh and affordably priced oysters at $1.90 each.

The menu is extensive, with many patrons praising the pho for its fragrant broth and the banh mi for its freshness.

Other standout dishes include the crispy banh xeo and well-cooked kangkong.

While the set meals and buffet options (like the $49.90 for 3 hours) provide good value and variety, some find certain dishes like the pork chop to be average or the soup a bit bland.

We note that the atmosphere can be quite buzzing and loud, especially with potential karaoke noise from private rooms, making it less suitable for a quiet meal.

However, for those who enjoy an energetic dining environment, it's a rewarding spot with convenient parking.

We'd recommend it for casual group dining, especially if you're in the mood for fresh seafood and a vibrant setting.

What customers say

Ăn Là Ghiền -5 is praised for its authentic and flavourful Vietnamese cuisine, with pho, banh mi, and fresh oysters being particular highlights, often at reasonable prices.

While the atmosphere can be lively and loud, especially with karaoke, many find it a great spot for casual dining and sharing dishes.

Some minor criticisms include occasional bland soup or average pork chop, and inconsistent service friendliness, but convenient parking is a plus.

Really authentic Vietnamese food. We had Pho in hot stone with generous portions of beef, spring roll and pancake. Pho soup was tasty yet not overpowering or thirst inducing. Spring roll was OK but wa…
