About Pho Hung Vuong Saigon

A Springvale institution with zero room for appetizers or lingering, this cash-only soup counter pours pure comfort into every bowl. Diners cross Melbourne for the deeply simmered nước dùng, skipping small talk in exchange for swift service and tightly packed communal tables. The beef phở arrives scalding hot, brimming with tender beef, snappy tendon, and tripe, while the sweet chicken broth offers a lighter, clear alternative. Add a dollop of house chili oil, pair it with a quick iced Vietnamese coffee, and you are set.

  • Simmered Broth: Deeply simmered beef broth alongside a naturally clear, sweet chicken soup.
  • Hearty Portions: Large portions loaded with tender cuts, springy tendon, and tripe for around $18.
  • Strictly Pho: Bustling, cash-only setup serving pho exclusively with brisk table turnover.
  • Iced Vietnamese Coffee: Rich, traditional Vietnamese drip coffee served over ice for $5.
