Editor’s Note
Last updated 30 May 2026
Em Oi, tucked away in a residential area, earns high marks for its authentic Vietnamese fare.
We see consistent praise for the 'warm, hearty and simply delicious broth' of their pho, with the beef stew rice noodles also highlighted for 'melt-in-your-mouth' beef chunks.
The Vietnamese pancake and handmade steamed rice flour rolls are frequently recommended, with one reviewer claiming the pancake is the 'best Vietnamese pancake I’ve tried.' While the food quality is generally excellent, service can be a point of contention.
We note reports of 'slow service' and wait times of '30-40min for food on a weekend / hols,' attributed to the small space and understaffing.
Some dishes, like the dry chicken pho, have received mixed reviews for being too salty or having an unusual texture.
Despite these operational hiccups, the consensus is that the food is 'reallllly worth the wait.' Verdict: A destination for authentic Vietnamese food, but best visited with patience, especially during peak hours.
