Bac 8 - Food VIC

melliesworld01 We came back for a second go. It’s now my go-to in Melbourne for a bowl of “bun mam” and “com bo luc lac” that hits all the right notes + condiments - sublime.

Jason Ling Today i had a lunch tea session with Eddy one of my working restaurants customers. We were suppose to go to Pho Hung Vuong Saigon but it was closed and thats how we ended up met Chi here . Was so grateful and honourable to have her superb service and suggestions on the menu. I would invite her as a business partner someday if i own a restaurant business myself. Good job Chi and Thank you!

Cheong K Herbal soup and claypot rice - delicious and reasonably priced. We have been coming here for more than 5 years and the food has been very consistent - delicious, fresh and tasty. Our favourite is the har gow mai sin (see picture). The dumpling is very nice and goes well with the soup and noodles. Our next favourite is the claypot rice with the fish, chilli and preserved vege. It is tasty and refreshing. The fish is not smelly at all. We bought the hainan chicken rice for our son. Not recommended at all. Stick to the dumplings and claypot rice. They also serve herbal soups. Again, it is delicious and nutritious. Give this place a go when you are in Springvale.

Wu Amelia Pork chop with broken rice were so nice - juicy, tender and full of flavour. Broken rice was cooked perfectly too, firm and separated grains. Bun Bo Hue was so flavorful too. Great ambience for a Springvale restaurant and friendly staff.

Wah S Most of the foods are really tasty. Rated them high considering the tasty foods and origin of the cultural background. Definitely not suitable for all.

Xin Tan Happy waiter and waitress make us more want to eat here. Our first time and we’re loving it. Will definitely come back

Ann Reeves I recently had the pleasure of dining at this amazing place called Saigon Rex Restaurant. Very crowded for lunch and brunch on the weekends which is always a good sign. I must say, it was a remarkable experience from start to finish. The food was really tasty, good portion sizes and at a reasonable price. The menu boasted an extensive selection of Yum Cha and Chinese delicacies from the classic, delicious freshly cooked Dim Sum and Lunch. The staff deserves a special mention for their friendly and impeccable service. They were attentive, knowledgeable and eager to cater to our preferences. Their recommendations were spot on, helping us explore the wide array of Cantonese flavors with confidence. For lunch, we had classic Dim Sum. We love this hidden gem sooo much and we cant wait to come back soon because the Chinese food is really yummy with good ambiance, great parking and no service charge fees. I would highly recommend this lovely restaurant to anyone seeking an authentic taste of Chinese cuisine in a welcoming and elegant setting.

Jonathon Dempster There are always some amazing special finds around this area, but this place is really something special. You literally could be in Asia sitting in the middle of a market square on basic tables being served the most amazing food by the most amazing people. It does exactly what it says on the label. This is street food to die for - we had the chicken and prawn balls - with 2 Banh Mi and some sugarcane drinks - oh and the rices paper rolls again awesome but a total over order on our part! The food is super good value price-wise and the only reason we spent $50 between two of us is because my eyes are way bigger than my stomach!

Caty Cat Snow cheese and creamy onion chicken are so delicious. Highly recommended.

Vanessa Wong-Lee Gami has recently opened which is a great addition to Springvale. The interior is so vibrant and colourful and the staff are so friendly. The soy garlic boneless chicken has tender meat but the batter could have been a bit more crisp as it is was rather chewy. Loved the potato heaven which was well balanced and has a hint of spice.
