Food: Generous bites yet subpar

Ben Ngu's dishes vary in quality, lacking in innovation. The Bun Bo Hue's spiced broth and Banh Ram's blend of textures are highlights, however, the menus are steeped in overpowering saltiness. The portions are largely appreciated for their generosity and affordability, yet the menu severely lacks variety.

  • Okay Taste

    Variety of experiences, some delicious meals, others mediocre, underwhelming.

  • Creativity

    No uniqueness to the food, lacks innovation.
