Pho Nom
Emporium Melbourne, Shop LG33
287 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne
Phone: 8609 8183 | Website
As you'd expect from an eatery in the well-heeled Emporium, this place does pho-nom-enal Vietnamese hawker food with contemporary style. For starters, Pho Nom use local, natural, ethical ingredients, including Milawa free range poultry and grass-fed Warialda beef bones for the stock. Choose your pho, from sliced wagyu sirloin to mushrooms and tofu, and a drink to suit your mood. Vietnamese-style iced coffee or Saigon 333 beer? Sugar cane juice or rum iced tea?
Homi Noodle Bar
Shop 2, 190 Queen Street, Melbourne
Phone: 9670 5825 | Website
It's street food with street cred at Homi Noodle Bar. Check the cool neon-lit fit-out, dope beats and modern Vietnamese dishes you've never heard of but know you want. Like soft shell crab banh canh and tater thots. If you just fancy pho they've got that sorted too: three beefy options or grilled lemongrass chicken with quail eggs. Order a bowl as part of the $20 lunch combo and you also get a little munchie and soft drink. Later in the day, we recommend going wild with your drink - maybe a coconut and jelly slurpee or Hot Line Shiba cocktail.
Mekong Vietnam
241 Swanston Street, Melbourne
Phone: 9663 3288 | Website
This Swanston Street institution seems to have been around forever, and certainly pre-dates most other Asian eateries in the CBD outside Chinatown. Mekong Vietnam is still here and still busy because it's reliably good, cheap and has every kind of pho you could want. Like beef and bone marrow, or fish balls, or the offal-y tasty Ta Pin Lu, which includes pork blood jelly and tripe. Medium sized serves are huge and under $15, so you can eat like a god even when you're skint.
