Quick served pho, which was flavourful, filling and warms the soul! The broth is so incredible, especially on cold nights. The staff were kind and helpful and the place was well priced. The decor is really pretty and will definitely be going again to get another feast

Visited on 19 Feb 2023 at 7.30pm.Newcastle was lacking a Vietnamese restaurant and I’m glad that Ngon has opened!I ordered the Grilled Lemongrass Pork Chop with rice (£10.50) as this is one of my favourite Vietnamese dishes to eat apart from pho. I would say that the pork was slightly dry for my liking and the salad didn’t have any dressing or seasoning added. I didn’t notice this till later but I also didn’t receive the spicy sauce with my dish. However, as my table had ordered spring rolls which came with the spicy sauce too, I used that to dip the pork chop in, which definitely helped with the dryness.Moving onto the spring rolls (£6.50), those were very delicious and I would highly recommend ordering that. My friends ordered the Rare Beef Pho (£10.50) and I tried the broth which was very flavorful and rich, perfect for a cold day. Lastly, we had the Grilled Pork with vermicelli (£11) which was not bad but definitely can’t compete with their pho.The staff was very friendly and would check in on us to ensure everything was good. I would definitely come back to have my own pho bowl and would recommend Ngon for anyone who has a Vietnamese craving.

When I open the bowl, the aroma of tomato broth and the flavors of crab, shrimp, meat, and tofu fill the air, making me crave it at first sight. The soft and tender vermicelli absorbs the broth, creating a delicious and enticing sensation. Love it❤️. Definitely will be back!!

Great food, cosy place, fair prices, would definitely recommend!The staff didnt seem the most experienced and the shop across the street has closed down so it's an empty street view, but the food was good.They did end up bringing and billing for a different wine as we asked for though.

The only Vietnamese restaurant I found in Newcastle. It’s not too bad. The beef is soft, the soup is tasty, but vermicelli isn’t that authentic. I like how much coriander and onions they put in the soup. Makes it so much better. Although the slice of limes/lemons can be bigger? So it’s easier to squeeze. I think if the soup is hotter when it is served, their sprouts will be easier to be softened. The starter is over priced. The squid is not what I expected and don’t understand why it comes with such weird western sauce. I don’t think I will order starter again. I very much like the style of this place though, the lanterns are gorgeous. Such a lovely place to spend a lovely evening with your family and friends.

Beef pho broth was not flavourful enough, noodles were the thicker type, would've preferred the thinner and smoother type.Coffee was good.Spring rolls were amazing.Sadly the pho was not the best.

I'm torn. I had a lovely experience but the flavours just weren't there. Only had time for a selection of starters, but we're looking forward to trying the mains.Order summer rolls - lacking in the big punch of fresh herbs.Salt and pepper squid - delicate and lightSweet and sour chicken - pretty much what you'd expect.

The food came quickly. They had run out of rare beef so I went for the special pho for £12. It was filling, but bland (that might just be my opinion of pho in general). I would come back to try other dishes.
