Hanoi Hannah Elsternwick - Food VIC

2 /5 John Sinistaj: This used to be my wife’s favourite restaurant and a birthday staple. We went there last week and we were seriously underwhelmed. Restaurant half full. We sat at our table with our friends and waited over 20 minutes for a waiter to come over (which didn’t happen until one of us walked over to ask if we could order!). Drinks orders and food was done at the same time to expedite the process. Entrees arrived and were eaten, with no drinks to be seen. Eventually, we got our drinks (which consisted of a single bottle of wine). Mains arrived soon after drinks. The food is nice, but the price and portion size don’t seem to add up. To top it off, they stuffed up splitting the bill and the machine still asks if you want to leave a tip??? We have had many enjoyable nights here, but based on this underwhelming experience, we definitely won’t be rushing back.

5 /5 Serene Dang: I had so much fun I forgot to take pictures! Im Vietnamese myself so the bar is pretty high here. But have to say I loved every dish! The cocktails were a great addition to the night. Staffs were super friendy, cute, and enthusiatic. Canh chua is a must try! ps: came back for Bo Kho, which did not live up to expectation. The chinese donut was overly charred. the taste was closer the western version than a Vietnamese one.

5 /5 Tyla Chapman: Love Hanoi Hannah! Definitely back way too often! The food here is sooo good and the service is great. Usually you need to make a booking for dinner, but lunch is pretty easy to get a table. I love the vermicelli bowls, phos and chicken bows. But honestly everything here is good!

5 /5 Christopher Wu: I don’t know if I was starving or what not but this place stunned me how good it was. A less traditional take on Vietnamese food to bring a more clean, cleansing take on pho. Every dish was a hit here in particular the fried spring rolls. The service on the night we came was also immaculate, we had a dog and they accommodated a good spot for us to dine and it was so enjoyable. Only average thing was the rice paper rolls.

5 /5 Martín Cedes: We had an exceptional experience at Hannoi Hanna Vol 2 in Elsternwick last Saturday. From the moment we arrived, the host was excellent and very accommodating. We had a booking but we even changed tables so we could sit outside as it was a nice evening and it was handled with zero fuss. Service throughout the night was outstanding – the staff were super helpful and genuinely caring. They checked in about dietary requirements, kept our wine glasses topped up, and clearly knew the menu offering thoughtful and spot-on recommendations. The food was absolutely delicious and super fresh! Highlights for us were the chicken yellow curry and the sashimi rice paper rolls – both were packed with flavour and beautifully presented. Overall, a fantastic dining experience. We’ll definitely be back to try more dishes, and I’m super keen to recommend this place to anyone looking for great Vietnamese food and a warm, professional service. 10 out of 10!
