“Great pho” and other Vietnamese crowd-pleasers is the attraction at this well-known “cheap and cheerful” canteen on the ‘Pho Mile’ stretch of Shoreditch’s Kingsland Road.
Summary
“The food is superb” at this Vietnamese canteen with a high reputation against strong competition on Shoreditch’s Kingsland Road ‘Pho Mile’. “You don’t come here for the service, but for the great pho.”
Summary
“Very basic”, but zippy, Vietnamese chow (“soft shell crab, YOM!”) has made this busy dive one of the better known in Shoreditch’s ‘Little Vietnam’ on the Kingsland Road. “Sometimes service is a little bit attitude-y, but you’re not going for that; and it’s crowded, but the food’s the focus”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Sông Quê Restaurant Diner Reviews
"In Little Vietnam in London. many of the restaurants have too low a food hygiene score but Song Que scores well. Friendly if a little chaotic service. Very tasty Pho. Summer Rolls good (but not quite great). Plenty of choice of other dishes. This is home-style Vietnamese cooking not the amazing delicate food which can also be found in some restaurants in Vietnam itself. "
