Good service, price is ok. Food was fabulous and we like very much. We went to this restaurant on 15 August 2008. We will come back soon in this weekend.

We dined here based on the good reviews but were disappointed: portions were small and the waiters were a bit pretentious. They even tried to overcharge us with the excuse that the menu prices haven't been updated!

We visited for the first time last night and will definitely be back and will bring friends here too. The food is delicious, there are so many choices and all are great. The cocktails are also worth a mention, expertly made. The best part is the service, you feel really looked after and soothed after a long day at work without the service being over-the-top. It was perfect and we felt we had made friends even after one visit. Thank you for a lovely experience.

Went here for my birthday and it was great! The food was amazing, I highly reccomend the beef rolls, and the service was the best I've ever had. The staff are very friendly, but not imposing. They even arranged a free birthday sticky rice dessert since we hadn't brought a cake. Will be going back very soon.

Honestly, I really love Vietnamese food and been to Vietnam several times. I've been to Bay Bua Restaurant as what my friends told this is the most traditional Vietnamese restaurant in Sydney, I was felt good because it's so nice and modern compare to other Vietnamese restaurant in Sydney. However, I was really disappointed about the food. They are not traditional Vietnamese foods at all.

For instance: if you had traditional Vietnamese pancake, you will be serve with lot of salad to wrap it with the pancake, not just 2 piece of lettuce and some carrot. Let me show you, most of the Vietnamese food are having with a lot of salad and have with Vietnamese fish sauce.

Recently, I've found one Vietnamese restaurant in Marrickville, their foods are really good and really traditional taste. Their restaurant isn't big and look luxury as Bay Bua, they just like family restaurant but the food is perfect. I hate those restaurant calling traditional Vietnamese food but actually it mix with Chinese and Thai food. That was misleading our food lover, you know!

It's so depressing to hear that they will be closing for one month. I've been their good loyal weekly customer for 4 months, true that specials are more outstanding than the stir- fries but we still do enjoy all the meals... Simple but very tasty compared to the other Thai meals around Potts point. Anyway wishing Mai and her Sister Sun all the best for the furniture renovation, can't wait to dine in again!
