Zen Kitchen - Adelaide

One of the best banh mi in Adelaide by far. Good service as well. Unfortunately can't say the same for the pho- slightly disappointing. It gets busy on weekdays lunchtime so try and go before 12 if possible.

Sorry, but that's not what pho tastes like guys! I haven't tasted anything else here although maybe I'll grab the Bahn Mi next time. I came here in belief the pho was good but it wasn't half decent nor did it even taste like pho.

It is easy to bypass the Renaissance Arcade, as it's tucked away and not exactly the most attractive dining hub in Adelaide. There are certainly some tasty Asian lunch spots on offer, though. Zen is great, because it is away from the hustle and bustle of the food court. They serve up a nice selection of soups, salads and rolls. On the day of our visit, my friend and I both ordered Banh Mi - Lemongrass Chicken for her, and Vegetarian for me. Mine was filled with carrot, coriander, fried egg, chilli and garlic butter on a large, crusty bun. Whilst simple, the ingredients worked together, were fresh, and the size more than enough to satisfy my appetite. Well worth a look for a cheap and cheerful meal.

After a quick meal? Pop into Zen's kitchen! With an extensive range of Vietnamese cuisines, they will sure to have something to fit your taste! I ordered the bun bo hue, and it was pretty well made. Im often quite picky with my vietnamese foods but Zen's kitchen's foods have been on points on the occasions i've been there. For a quick bite to eat, Zen's Kitchen's got your back, however there can be a huge line during lunch hours as many are after their delicious banh mi rolls.

A small and popular restaurant in Renaissance food court,this place is always packed when it comes to lunch time! Banh mi for everyone... Probably the most popular thing on their menu to order there, and it's a solid option if youre craving for one. The pho there was not so great, not much flavor in the broth and rather expensive for the amount you get.
