Viet Grill

Although you'll find lots of restaurants specialising in Vietnamese food in Kingsland Road, Viet Grill is arguably one of the most popular options. This is a place where you can enjoy authentic street food in a smart and stylish setting. A red neon sign beckons you inside to a space with tropical wallpaper, hanging lamps, and comfortable leather seating.

Food from Viet Grill is available to eat in the contemporary restaurant space or take away. There's something for everyone here, including a convenient set lunch option of two courses if you're dining in and simple meals made just for children. All the classics are here – fresh salads, spring and summer rolls, and bánh xèo pancakes are available to start. There are a variety of distinctive main dishes too – fragrant curries, catfish cooked in a clay pot, a wide variety of pho recipes that include regional specialities, bun hue, and wok-fried noodles. If you're interesting in trying recipes from regions all over Vietnam, this is a great place to eat. Top the meal off with Vietnamese beer, coffee, or specially-prepared fruity soft drinks.

Bigger groups are welcome at this restaurant and special menus can be devised for a celebration. You can also privately hire the whole venue. Viet Grill provides catering services too and can offer special packages for wedding catering. This restaurant gets stiff competition from its neighbours but continues to stand out as a cool and contemporary spot for indulging in a tasty Vietnamese feast.
