Phamous Kitchen

A quiet night at Phamous but food was fabulous as always!

Continues to pump out great food, don’t know why we don’t go more often!

Food and service is always exceptional. We will definitely be back for more! Thank you 😊

Great local place - delicious food, varied menu, and really friendly staff

Consistently good quality food and service together with a great environment!

The spring rolls, duck rolls & dumplings were fabulous. The beef short ribs were quite nice although the piece I got was a bit stringy (my companions said their's was fine; the salmon was overcooked & rather dry but fabulous sauce. Was annoyed when they said "we've moved away from AMEX for a few days" - restaurant speak for we're not accepting it currently although they charge 3% for it + had signs plastered everywhere saying they accepted it - 1st world problem I know but still annoying!

Menu was varied so lots to choose from Food was delicious. Easy to talk as not noisy and Service was delightful.

We had the 3 x salads, the duck rolls and bo lac. All 10/10. Excellent!

Booked at 11.30am and they left me standing outside until 11.50am. But the food was excellent and the service was great.

Food was good and came at the right time. Good value too.

The tamarind duck was superb but the salad was a bit too sour. Overall the food was good

Really enjoyed Phamous Kitchen. The food was amazing and really unique.

Excellent food and attentive service. Our favourite Balmain restaur restaurant

Excellent food, service and ambience. Went there with a group of friends not knowing what to expect and we were all very pleased for going to the Phamous Kitchen in balmain. The food was great , not heavy, tasty, well presented, and the service was fantastic, timely and always attending to our needs without being intrusive. Will go back there again for sure and recommend to all my friends.

Great food great staff have been many times and eat there again great

Great service, food and value for money indeed. We are a regular customer.

It was very busy when we arrived and the wait time for service initially was quite long, but once we ordered the food started arriving promptly. Food was fantastic and service was friendly. We were sitting at the back part of the restaurant which was good because it wasn't too noisy. Would definitely go back!

Great food, unpretentious atmosphere, good service- I highly recommend it!

Excellent food, friendly service. Will be back. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to try this nouveau vietnamese cuisine.

This lovely place never disappoint. The food and staff are always very nice.

Love this place so keep going back and back again

Public holiday surcharge for Easter Saturday made it a bit more expensive but food was delicious.

Food was great, service friendly and prompt.very noisy outside where we sat - table loud and dogs never stopped barking

My fave!! The food is so beautiful at your restaurant. Thank you

Fabulous food, wonderful dining experience, highly recommended for a great night out.

It seems as if Phamous is understaffed - it took a while to get the usual service. Hopefully, this is not a trend... As well, there was a table of loud, raucous folk which obviated any comfortable conversation at our table.

Great food and service, Interesting menu. It was packed on a Thursday night.

Amazing food and great service, thank you for having us!

Excellent food and always very tasty dishes at Phamous restaurant

Nice food, pleasant environment, good service but they need A/C!!

Probably my fifth visit here, the food and service is always great. especially the pork pancake, delicious.

Phamous is a great restaurant, and we done there often. The food is a bit different from the other Vietnamese restaurants, although the menu would benefit from more seafood eg prawns. There are lots of diners who don't eat chicken, pork, lamb or beef, but do eat seafood. The service was a little slow on this particular night, but otherwise, it's very good.

I ate at this restaurant a couple of years ago and thought it was amazing. Sadly, last night this was not my experience. After talking it up with friends (one of whom is a Chef) we went off with high expectations, The rice paper rolls were fine, the scallop in betel leaf delicious. Then came the pork belly - this felt like it had been cooked and reheated later (or microwaved) - it was tough, and had no flavour. The duck was overcooked and it too seemed reheated version with tough bits around the edges. The Wagu was good, just a little light on in quantity for 5 people and the prawns lovely. For desert a banana dish was served up, half of it was left uneaten. Sorry guys, I don't like writing bad reviews but last nights experience left us very disappointed.

Absolutely excellent food! Always! Every time! We love this place, and now our friends do too! Lovely, friendly service. It's a favourite place in Balmain.

Fabulous food. Fresh and tasty. Pleasant atmosphere and staff. One of the 4 main meals arrived 10 mins after the others. A little disorganised. Shame.

Food is delicious , highly recommend has become a favourite.

I just discovered this place on the weekend. Lovely staff and delicious food. Will definitely be going back for their noodle bowls and relaxed atmosphere.

Really loved the food, service was great. We went for Sunday lunch and really found it to be very quiet and a great venue for chatting. BYO wine only

The food was interesting, tasty and generous. More Asian fusion than Vietnamese. Prices are about average. Pleasant seating in or outdoors. I would definitely return.

Beautiful food & great service. Phamous Kitchen is our favourite restaurant at the moment. Do yourself a favour and check it out- I recommend booking to make sure you don’t miss out.
