Vietal Village / Göttingen, Rote Str. 16, 37073 Göttingen

Great food, good service, no long waiting, great prices! A shame we don't stay in Göttingen long enough to come again. Absolutely recommend!! 👍💕 We had some summer rolls, a pho, caramelised pork and the sticky rice with banana for dessert. Enjoyed greatly! …

It's no exaggeration to say that this is our favourite restaurant, full stop. We've yet to find, anywhere, a more authentic Vietnamese restaurant outside of Vietnam, and it's simply perfect. Fresh, warm, rich, smooth and strong, this is where we go when we're tired or want to celebrate. We're probably addicted. Here's some key tips: While everything on the menu is good, please treat yourself and order some of the "proper" Vietnamese dishes - phở, bún, nem, most things you're not sure how to pronounce - instead of defaulting to "safe-looking curry-like dishes" . Especially phở - the meat soup that you might call Vietnam's national dish - is perfect for newcomers to Vietnamese cuisine, having no "scary" ingredients. It's meat broth, meat , noodles, coriander, cinnamon, star anise and no strange surprises, and it absolutely rocks. A must-eat. If you are willing to try out Vietnamese fish sauce, I heartily recommend the bún chả - grilled pork in fish sauce, with rice noodles - because it's heaven in a bowl. Cơm tấm - grilled pork with rice - is the pictured dish, and is apparently a temporary dish that may make it to the main menu later . Final tip, applicable to every Vietnamese restaurant world-wide: Vietnamese food, unlike much of eastern cuisine, usually does *not* come with chilli by default. You can and should ask the waiters to bring you fresh chilli , or add some pickled chilli if it's on your table. This makes it safe for those who dread spicy food, but the true potential of the food definitely shows once it starts having a bit of hot hit to it. Drinks are also all great, coffee is quite authentic. Essay over! In summary: Go here, it's fantastic.

Really good food and quiet place! Cheaper than expectef snd very tasty! They have been fast in serving. The place is not too big so is more interesting. I will be back!
