What customers say?

“ AMAZING BEEF NOODLE SOUP Visiting Ballina from Brisbane, honestly one of the best Beef Pho I have ever had, and I’ve travelled to Vietnam. Great service, reasonably priced, and absolutely delicious! Next time we visit, we will definitely be back ”

“ Not bad but can’t expect too much since there is not much of Asian cuisine nearby. Staff didn’t really know their product knowledge when we asked some question regarding the specials on the board. We had to repeat 3 times to place our ordered, and pointed at the menu carefully on the food we want but than when it came out, missus food was wrong… Acknowledged one of the older guy who looks like the boss and immediately change for us. Overall, food was ok but can be better in the sense of the stir fried and more basil if not, mint leaves for the noodle salad to bring out the spark of the flavour. ”

“ Very nice service, I ordered a crispy chicken with rice, it was delicious, the nước mắm chấm had ginger which I haven’t seen before and there wasn’t any chicken broth but overall the dish was tasty, chicken was crispy and juicy. Would visit again. ”

- Delisha -

“ Visiting from Melbourne, and this place is right up there, excellent food, very nice service. Don't be put off by the location - in a shopping centre next to Big W. Once you're in there and seated you won't even notice it. Perfect for me as a vegan - lots of tofu options, and I was able to fill up beautifully on $30 with an entree and a main - but the omnivores who were with me were equally impressed. I hope this business does really well! It certainly deserves to. ”

“ Family friendly, conveniently located near Big W, personal service, and every dish is freshly prepared with Vietnamese skill and great care. This restaurant is my regular go-to lunch spot when visiting Ballina. ”

- Trevor Wilson -

“ The food was super tasty! The chicken had spices on it and the rice noodles made me crave Vietnamese food for life! ”

“ I've been a fan of Hong's Kitchen for a while and saw that it recently was renamed to Tam's Kitchen. I went last night to see if it was particularly different. Most of it was the same (in a good way), which a few little changes. Overall it's still the relaxed, tasty place it has always been. Keep up the good work! ”

- Grey Joyner -

“ Pretty good. Tried the deluxe pho and the meat was really tasty and fresh. The soup could be better but was a bit plain. Overall a good place if you want pho, although a little pricey. ”
