I stopped in for something quick for lunch, bao’s got my attention $15.50 for 3 (average price no complaints) The meat is 10/10 fantastic The buns are just right too But it all feels slightly bland the coleslaw has no flavour and it feels like it’s just missing something It may be because I’m a westerner but I’d love some coriander & som Hoisin sauce I would & will definitely come back though

The portion size is just right for me and definitely satisfies my craving for Vietnamese food. Fresh vegetables and very tasty chicken.

🍜 Nem Viet on Mitchell — Bendigo Tried Nem Viet and went for their classic — Chicken Pho, which is kind of a must-try at any Vietnamese place. The broth was light and clear but flavorful, and the chicken was tender with a generous portion. The herbs and bean sprouts on the side added that fresh kick I love. It’s the kind of comforting bowl you’d crave on a breezy day. For dessert, I got the fried ice cream 🍨 — crispy outside, soft and creamy inside, with a drizzle of syrup and a mint leaf on top. Overall, both dishes were pretty good, simple and satisfying, and the atmosphere was warm and casual — perfect for a quick Vietnamese fix in Bendigo.

Visiting Bendigo for an art exhibition and we found Nem Viet in the centre of Bendigo. The food was perfect for a wintery night, as it warmed us up and tasted fantastic. Great friendly and cheery staff made us feel really welcome.

Nem Viet delivers a satisfying Vietnamese dining experience with impressively fast service — our meals arrived at the table in no time. The menu features a wide range of classics, all presented well and full of fresh flavor. That said, the portion of rice served is quite small, and the prices are on the higher side compared to similar restaurants. Still, the quality of the dishes makes up for it, and the flavors are authentic and enjoyable. The standout for me was the beef spicy pho. The broth was rich, aromatic, and had just the right kick of heat, while the beef was tender and generous. It’s definitely the dish I’d recommend to anyone visiting. Overall, Nem Viet is a little pricey, but if you’re after quality Vietnamese food with speedy service, it’s a great choice.
