About PHO 93 Vietnamese restaurant

This low-key Chelsea Heights outpost turns out deeply savoury noodle soups and homestyle Vietnamese classics at genuinely accessible prices. Regulars come for the generous bowls of rare beef and brisket pho—served steaming hot with heaps of fresh bean shoots and basil—or drop in for crispy pork and prawn spring rolls over bún. A family-run spot where complimentary prawn crackers hit the table right away and guests are welcome to bring their own bottle of wine to uncork alongside a plate of spicy salt quail.

  • BYO Friendly: Guests are welcome to bring their own wine to pair with dinner.
  • Free Prawn Crackers: Baskets of complimentary prawn crackers arrive at the table upon seating.
  • Sheltered Outdoor Seating: In addition to indoor dining, a sheltered outdoor shed provides extra space for relaxed meals.

  • Kid-Friendly Dining with Free Table Crackers

    The relaxed dining room and welcoming setup cater effortlessly to families with children, accompanied by complimentary prawn crackers.

    Free prawn crackers at the tables. Food is great, place is clean but not trendy or upmarket if that bothers you. Kid friendly, and a good kind of noisy bustle.

  • Crowd-Pleasing Menu and Sheltered Outdoor Seating

    A varied menu ensures everyone in the family finds their preferred dish, complemented by flexible sheltered shed seating outdoors.

    It’s always very hard to find an eating place where the whole family have something they like and this is one of the rare one that’s on our list.
