Interesting place, not worth 4.4 stars for sure šš
Quite overpriced for food that tasted heated up in the microwave, and quite cramped, but itās part of the interior design, so pass.
And the queueā¦ insanely long for mediocre food. If I were you, I would just skip itā¦ā¦ā¦.. man it was not worth the 36 dollars
Overall, the food tasted preserved, like something from the supermarket
Apparently they donāt allow you to customise the food by picking and choosing, but you can just tell them which ingredients you donāt want, they donāt care.

Recently they have increased the price but Iām actually happy for them, as I realize it comes with upgraded service as well: nicer decoration for a more premium atmosphere, larger portion, and the new service crew is very friendly and attentive; big prop to the lady serving us food. I think this is probably the only restaurant in Singapore that does justice to Vietnamese cuisine: the food is consistently good and authentic, whether itās Southern, Northern or Central Vietnamese food. It is still a bit of a wait to get the food; I think the small kitchen size might still be their bottleneck here. But I can assure you the wait is well worth it.
If I could have a small suggestion: the bowl used to serve stewed beef is a bit deep while the soup spoon is designed for a shallower bowl. I frequently find my hand at an awkward position trying to dig the spoon into the bowl. The deep bowl also makes it harder to dip bread into the soup. Probably a shallow bowl works better.

This Viet cafe has been under my radar for a while. Finally got a chance to have my lunch here. Still gotta wait for about 30 mins even though I was there after 1pm. I ordered the pho beef noodle soup and it comes with the raw beef on top of the cooked pho. You then have to pour the hot soup over the raw beef so that your beef is not overcooked by the time you eat it. Soup was especially umami. I also ordered the fresh spring rolls and it was so good too. This is one of the rare few Viet places that I think the pho is good. Highly recommend if you're looking for good tasting authentic Viet food.

Came here for a snack and also because heard food is pretty good although on the pricey side.
Ordered the vietnamese pork sausage banh mi and the vietnamese "chee kweh" which was absolutely delish la.
The banh mi was light, crispy on the outside and chock full of flavours on the inside with the mint, Chilli, picked carrots, etc served separately so one can DIY the level of your preferred intensity.
The Banh Beo "chwee kueh" was also v good - basically little savoury rice pancakes with a smattering of dried fried shrimp on the top with a super crispy pork rind ...makes you wanna go to Vietnam ! Yumz...thank you. Will be back!

Had a lovely meal at Co Chung Vietnamese Restaurant in Plaza Singapura. The moment we stepped in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a charming, authentic Vietnamese ambiance.
We ordered the Vietnamese coffee, banh mi, and pho. The coffee was strong, fragrant, and just the right amount of sweet, exactly how traditional Vietnamese drip coffee should be. It was a great pick-me-up to start the meal.
The banh mi was delicious, with a crunchy baguette exterior and a savory, well-seasoned filling inside. Fresh herbs and pickled vegetables gave it a refreshing balance, and the flavors were spot on.
The highlight, though, was the pho. The broth was incredibly aromatic and rich, with layers of beefy depth. The noodles had the right bite, and the generous portion of herbs and condiments on the side allowed us to customise to our liking.
Overall, it was a comforting and flavorful experience that truly reminded me of the street food in Vietnam. Will definitely return to try other dishes like the rice vermicelli and spring rolls. Highly recommend if youāre craving a satisfying Vietnamese meal in town!

When I first had this, I was blown away. It was super delicious. The dish I had had this sauce that was sweet and savoury, pairing super well with the vermicelli noodles and chicken. I like that thereās a good portion of vegetables too! Friends had vegetarian pho and beef stew which they also enjoyed a lot. Only downsides would be during peak periods there might not be a lot of seating and the service workers seem a bit busy with the number of orders.

Serves great Viet food with affordable prices. Space a little small but still good enough to enjoy the nice authentic dishes. Good to try out. But may have to keep in line for a short while to get in.

Had a nice dinner date with my daughter ā she was craving pho, so we came here. We wanted to try the āpour your phoā but ended up getting the regular chicken pho instead. Still, it was really good! The broth had a rich, slightly smoky aroma and was full of flavour.
We also tried the spring rolls ā fresh, light, and tasty. Great spot for a comforting meal. Weāll definitely come back again!

Nice place with authentic Vietnamese food. Special beef pho. You get to pour the broth into your bowl of pho. Nice and flavourful Bahn mi too with nicely toasted bun.

Pleasantly surprised there was no queue at 3pm on a Sunday, so I can finally try this place!
Interior was nice and cozy, the tables were repurposed from sewing machines. Very rustic vibes.
Had the pho beef noodle soup (D02) and the beef was tender. Broth was rich and flavourful. Love the combination of the texture from the silky noodles and crunchy veg. Each bowl was $14.90, slightly on the pricey side given the location to be at Dhoby Ghaut.
Sadly, didnāt quite enjoy the fresh spring rolls (B01) Personally didnāt enjoy the accompanied sauce that came with it and the texture of the shrimp was soft instead of firm and crunchy. Would also wish thereās more shrimp too for $7.90.
Service was good and food was served within 20 mins. Total bill was $45.20 for 2 pax. Will return again to try other food here and if thereās no queue.
