Gone down hill since I last went there. Microwaved dim Sims that were hardly recognisable. 5/10 Bahn mi lacking any kind of flavour and enthusiasm. Spring rolls you could run a small engine on with all the oil in them. The owner seemed more interested in running her side hustle while I was there and the place is filthy. I was overcharged but I caught her out. Keep driving, please keep driving. I made it through the night as I was concerned i might be sick. It looks like since I went there last they certainly have lifted their game. It's good to see such good reviews. Perhaps a new owner or these reviews encourage people and businesses to try a bit harder? Well done

Best Vietnamese takeaway food you can find in Adelaide. Price is really reasonable. You will feel like coming to visit a friend as the owner is extremely friendly, warm and hospitable. The service is the secret ingredient for the shop’s success. Highly recommend. I love their pork noodles soup, lots of fried shallots and the meat was spectacular ! Highly recommended. There’s a reason why there’s such good rating for a tiny little takeaway shop.

The food was good , i did a take away of lemon grass chicken and fried rice , spring roll, and chicken wings. The fried rice was good . The rice was so smooth and not sticky and very tasty. Lemon grass chickem was awesome. Spring rolls need a bit more meat but overall it was tasty. The chicken wings were so good. I was happy with all their meal and very friendly lady who answers the call and very welcoming. The chef who cooks is also very friendly. Try this place and never regret. Price is very reasonable and i hope they can maintain it.. Thanks

  • Chris Brittain

Such a hidden gem! We just moved in down the road and have found our new local treat with Viettopia. Delicious, authentic and nourishing food at such a great price, helps me to feel justified going through multiple times a weekend! The owner is so lovely and welcoming, it’s like visiting that family friends place whose mum is an amazing cook, even gave us some mandarins off her tree to take home! Give it a try you won’t regret it!

Friendly and quick service. The place now seem for close customers due to the location. The foods are all nice for your busy day or lazy to cook. I used to eat “banh mi” or pork dim-sum noodle.

Walk passed Vietopia and decided to give it a try. Bun bowl with combination toppings was tasty. You can easily tell that the food was made fresh. Will try more soon! Give them a chance and see how you go! :) - Shin Edit: Went back after 3 months and tried their Roast Pork Banh mi and Vietnamese Coffee. The taste, quality and quantity, SPOT ON! Will keep coming back! And the owner is very cheerful!

  • Skye Newton

Got takeaway from Viettopia House this evening. The satay beef had a nice level of spiciness, the kuey teow had a generous amount of seafood on it and was super yummy, and the lemon chicken had a subtle lemon/ginger flavour to it (don't confuse it with Australian Chinese restaurant lemon chicken ...no deep-fried battered chicken here!). Was all very enjoyable, and will become a regular option for us.

  • ChicksWithPicks ADP

I have found the staff to be friendly. However my rating of 2 is because I have gone to get a Roast Pork roll 5 times and I have been happy 2 of the 5 times. I won't be going back though, after I started going there for a while I noticed that they gradually put less and less pork in the roll and the last one was basically just a salad roll with 3 pieces of pork and 5 pieces of crackling.

  • Janine McMahon

Amazing find. Give yourself a Vietopia of food and service... A small but extremely friendly owners and freshly cooked food... Do try the entire menu. Or ask for the dumplings which they make themselves. Everything is so fresh and traditional in this tiny shop. A few can sit at a time but there's not many tables. .And that, I think, is the only drawback to this new gem of cheap eats

  • Lucky Seven

Excellent food, service, and prices! A local gem for Renown Park and Bowden/Brompton and now with the Torrens Road overpass completed it's nice to get some takeaway and eat in the newly developed park outside. I get food from here at least once per week. Highly recommended!

Top notch little vietnamese roll shop run by a lovely family, they kept our house on Drayton St running with their incredible rolls and bowls in 2020. The hardest part about moving house was no longer living around the corner from this gem. Seriously if you're in the area pay them a visit, you won't be disappointed, we miss them!

  • Vicky Truong

Great service, I’ve enjoyed my last banh mi or pho! The secret is asking them for extra pate ;). The chicken spring rolls here are one of the best I’ve had for a Vietnamese take away - meaty and fragrant like at home (not like those foodcourt ones with only cabbage and flour !)

  • C P

If this place was located elsewhere, it would have line ups out the door. The banh mi is excellent, fresh rolls, lots of meat. The steamed dim sums and dumplings and the homemade sauces are great, authentic and very tasty.
