98% of the menu is gluten free, and the gluten containing meals were clearly marked. Easy to order. Not sure about cross contamination risk in the kitchen. Would happily go again.

As soon as we arrived we were asked if we had any allergies, and once they learned one of us was coeliac they explained that all gluten free food was prepared in a coeliac friendly way but they could not provide guarantees that the food delivered to them (e.g., vegetables) had not come into contact with gluten containing foods prior to delivery. We still felt safe to eat there and it was really great for my partner to look at a menu normally, as the menu was almost entirely gluten free! Great service and overall a good experience.

5 stars for taste and for safety! 90% of the menu is already gluten free and they can make the other 10% gluten free on request. The kitchen only uses gluten free flour so really great for avoiding cc

It is so delicious and fresh. Almost everything is gluten-free and wheat free and dairy free. Only 2 springrolls not. Wouw. Zo lekker bijna alles is tarwevrij, glutenvrij, Melkvrij. Alleen de springrolls, maar dat zijn maar 2 varianten. Alles wordt vers gemaakt. Daarom duurt het iets langer. De moeite waard.

This is the second time I’ve eaten here and it’s fantastic. Server was clued up and told me the only things on the menu I couldn’t have were the spring rolls.

I had chicken wings followed by the beef brisket curry. My friend had the phở and it looked great too.

We were also tempted into taking coffee - it’s quite a short, drip coffee that’s sweet and very nice.

We had an incredible lunch here. I had the crispy baby squid and a classic Vietnamese chicken curry. They were both amazing. The spring rolls were the only thing I couldn't have. They were very aware of cc. Great staff too.

Vietnamese street food. Menu mainly gluten free. Few items containing gluten (spring rolls) clearly marked on the menu. Offered GF beer (Daura Damm). I'm very sensitive and no issues at all. Actually felt I could relaxed and enjoy the meal.

Delicious! Menu is “98% gluten-free” and they will explain what few items have gluten. Great pho incl beef brisket and tofu+mushroom with veg broth. Very busy on weekend, you can queue up, or make reservation ahead if possible. Located in St James Quartet shopping mall, a short walk from Waverley train station and attached to the W Hotel “poop emoji” building.

Menu is 98% gf - from what we were told there were only 2 items not gf, which are cooked separately. The pho was good, but the broth could have had more flavor. The chicken wings were very good. We also tried the banana fritters and chocolate waffle - each with honey and ginger ice cream for dessert. Overall a good experience and would recommend highly for safety and food options.

Loved this place. 98%of the menu is gluten free and they clearly identify the 2 items you can’t eat when you self-identify as GF. I had fried chicken wings to start and the prawn pho with chicken broth for main. Both were really good. Our server was Tyson and he was efficient, knowledgable and friendly. Go.

I’ve been to the London location as well but this was my first time at the St James location. Almost every thing is GF, and if you let them know you’re celiac they’ll ensure extra precaution is taken to make sure none of the gluten-containing items in the kitchen come near your food. Really good pho for a cold day!

They were very knowledgable about which items were safe or unsafe for coeliac people, but the safe/unsafe items were not marked on the venue. Have eaten here plenty of times and never had any issues!

Ordered delivery from here twice, as they were one of the few places that marked things well in the app. First order was perfect; second was definitely GF but they put real chicken in my papaya salad instead of the GF soy chicken 😭. That said, everything I had from them (including the GF faux prawn vegan crackers) was super tasty, and their menu is so clear about what contains what. Definitely an enjoyable and safe place for me, especially for delivery.

Seemed very allergen-knowledgable but I got sick after eating here. I believe this was due to a misunderstanding of the contamination from their vegan chicken alternative. Reached out to the restaurant to inform them and had my email passed around and then ignored. They did not want to deal with the issue or fix their labelling of the chicken at all. Unsafe.

Excellent meal, all gluten free except spring rolls and no dairy in sight. Asked on way in about allergies. Had the pork and lemongrass balls for starters and braised steak curry and rice. They also have cauliflower rice but had run out. Would like to go back again

I loved my experience at Pho. I went for dinner, and I was informed most dishes are gluten free, and they can be made egg and dairy free. The taste was incredible, I ordered wok fried rice noodles with beef (pho xao) which I then tried to recreate at home with no avail! The staff is super knowledgeable, as if all of them know all about food allergies, and the restaurant vibe is super friendly. It was a random discovery while I was looking for something to swallow quickly before entering the cinema.

I had never eaten Vietnamese food before and was very excited. There is a sign on the way in stating 98% Gluten Free. Every noodle dish in the restaurant is made with rice noodles. There are two starters that are not GF and I was assured they were prepared and cooked separate so I don't need to worry about it. I had the Beef Combo Pho and it was AMAZING. I would highly recommend their Lychee Lychee Margarita too!!
