    Friendly customer service,but was a bit slower in comparison to other food stalls at Bang Bang.After recently returning back from Vietnam, the Banh Mi here really doesn’t compare to the real Banh Mi’s in Vietnam. It’s lacking floss I think as the Banh mi was dry. The Banh Mi bread is good though, light and crispy and just as I’d expect it. The flavour of the chicken was nice just lacked sauce in the Banh Mi. I understand the salad options is probably difficult to get here, so the Banh Mi had missing salad ingredients. The summer roles were not fresh either and way too much cilantro which over powered the taste for me.

    One of my go-to Vietnamese places in North London. Located in Bang Bang Oriental Food Hall, this food stall serves fresh and well-made Vietnamese dishes. I normally go for the Vegetarian Bun (noodle dish with tofu, spring rolls and salad - ask for the vegan sauce as it’s traditionally served with fish sauce). My friend had the lemon chicken rice.We also had some Vietnamese coffee and the Coconut Longan drink, which is an ice drink and dessert in one haha).Enjoy!Vegetarian options: A couple of lovely vegetarian noodle dishes

    The food here is consistently good. I had the Bun Chicken today and they were very tasty. The veggies and noodles were freshly made and the chicken had that charcoaled flavor. The serving portion was just right for most people. Prices seemed to have climbed over time like everything else in this country. Between -pm they are off so please keep that in mind. The competition is intense among all the vendors at Bang Bang which works to keep the quality standards fairly high.June Today I had the Bun Pork Belly and have yet to be disappointed. The pork had a distinct charcoal grill flavor and that's what made this joint really special.
