If I'm in bankstown for pho I would higly recommend this place, because it has quality pho for a very good price. As compared to other pho restaurants that offer the same dish. Service is good for a restaurant that isn't very formal. Next time I will try the crispy chicken as I have heard it is quite good here too!

Decided to eat thai here on reconmendation by a friend. A group of us went, so there was adequate seating for groups and for couples. Inside it is quite dark and lit by candles so it would better suit couples. We ordered the satay sticks and soft shell crabs as our starters. Didn't take too long before they came out, the soft shell crab was delicious it was perfectly cooked and the sweet chilli sauce matched it nicely. The satay sticks were a little bit of a let down, no real flavour and the dipping sauce wasn't that great.

For our mains we had green chicken curry, massamn beef curry and pad thai (beef and chicken). The green curry was beautifully done, the curry sauce was perfect to just eat itself with the jasmine rice. The only thing that surprised me was that it was not spicy/hot at all, I would have like it a bit spicier as it is a curry but it was still very good.

The massaman curry was okay, beef was cooked well but again the curry itself was not spicy/hot at all which was a slight let down. The pad thai's that we ordered were very good as well I preferred the beef pad thai as the meat had a better taste with the pad thai.

I would definitely come here again for thai and would ask the staff to make the curries a little hotter/spicier, staff service was good they were attentive to your needs and didn't forget any orders which was another plus!

After many months of my friends have been telling me that this is the best pho in Sydney, I decided to give in and travel the decent to give it a try. First impressions of the place was that it looked quite nice, everything was clean and well displayed.
Me and my other friend both ordered the 'Special Beef Noodle Soup' which we saw was $9.50. We asked if there was just a normal beef noodle soup and that was the only one.

Our pho took quite a while to come out considering I've been to a lot of other pho places that have been extremely busy and still got my pho served within 5 minutes.
The pho was quite nice, there was a lot of meat in there compared to some other pho places. But I expected this considering it was a 'Special Beef noodle soup', in other words its a beef combination soup. Because it contained slices of beef, beef balls and tripe!

The bowls are a little small, because there isn't much soup or noodles, so I was a little disappointed about that. Overall I was satisfied with my first visit to Pho 76 and prob come back here if I was in the area!

The famous Harry's Cafe De Wheels pies/hot dogs. Can't remember how many times I've eaten here! At least once or twice a week. The hot dog de wheels and the tiger pies are the usual standouts. Curry pie is great too! The cheese sauce matches great with just a hotdog and chilli sauce, or just gettin a plain beef pie with mash and gravy is another great choice!

Some times it can get very busy, but you will definitely have the same great service from all the staff.

Open 24/7 what more could you ask! Been here often esp during cold winter nights after work, has been great. They have a large variety of pies to choose from as well as pastries such as apple charlotte. Loved the cheese and bacon pie along with cheese and mushroom and many others that I've forgotten.

Came here on a pretty busy Saturday night, because it was formerly a fish and chip shop the space is quite limited, but they managed to fit quite a few people in still!

I had the pork curry and takoyashi balls, which was very yummy! The pork curry wasn't spicey at all which was a slight let down and the cutlery i was given was a babies spoon or teaspoon which was definitely too small to eat my meal with.
Service is above average as they have 2-3 waiters to serve everyone but you may have some language problems if you speak english only.

Decided to come here for good feed with a few friends on a wednesday night. Decided not to go the Criniti's and the other busy/expensive italian places along Church st. Service was quite good as one of the waiteress was quite attentive to our needs etc.

Our pizza took quite a while to come out considering there were only 2-3 other people on other tables that didn't order pizza. We order a chicken special, which had some decent flavour but was slightly overdone and had very little topping even for a woodfired pizza. Friend ordered bruschetta and lasagna which was also quite average as well. Won't be coming here again for a while.

Have been coming to Habibs for a while now, they have great charcoal chicken on the rare occasion you might get a dry one. But I'd say a good 90% I've gotten beautifully cooked chicken esp when it has just been done! Chips with the chicken salt here is the best along with the garlic sauce and lebanese bread together. Its a great feed, quite filling and not too expensive great for groups too!

The pancakes here are quite good, the short stacks and hot n troppo was nice especially with the ice-cream, but the blueberry pancake wasn't even proper blueberries, they were red! I had the chicken pizza which was very nice with the gucamole and sour cream. Service is quite good as they have a lot of staff.

The pizza here is quite expensive considering it's a 'gourmet' pizza place. The pizza sizes are very small, and the drinks are quite expensive too. The only good pizza was a chicken teranyaki and the service was okay. Wouldn't come here again though.
