Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"A rustic brunch spot on the main street of Nundah Village, Simply duo offers a variety of brunch and Vietnamese meals. The staff were polite, the place was clean enough and the food tasted yummy. The ceasar salad was unique in came with 2 pieces of toasted bread that was pressed flat instead of croutons. The crispy pork banh mi was delicious as well, with a crunchy yet soft toasted bun and juicy pork. Bonus points for having water jugs that customers can grab themselves"
"I just ate at Mum’s Pho Nundah and it was sooo good The pho had a clear but super flavorful broth, really fragrant with spices, and the beef was tender, not chewy at all. The banh mi was crispy on the outside with that perfect crunch, packed with fillings, and the pickled veggies were fresh so it didn’t feel heavy. The staff were also really friendly and quick. Definitely coming back — if you’re around Nundah, you need to try it at least once. Lowkey addictive"
"This restaurant is somewhat hidden away and off the footpath. However, it is worth visiting if you're in the Margaret St/George St culinary dead zone. I've tried multiple dishes and found them all well made, all flavourful. The Banh Mi may be the best value item in the CBD area, actually. The staff are very helpful and friendly. Atmospherically, this restaurant is quite unremarkable, but there is plenty of seating indoors and out."
"When Simply Duo closed, my boyfriend and I were heartbroken We were relieved to see that it just changed hands to a sweet mother and son duoWe visited today and the table service was great and the massive portions were delicious. The curry chicken is my new favourite"
"Absolute gem of find here in Nundah. Hubby ( modified with AI to protect anonymity!) enjoyed the combo pho -exquisitely delicate but totally full of flavoured broth. I had rice paper rolls and matcha latte. Great service and very reasonable prices. Very happy!!"
"My first time here after it changed to the new owner. The pho broth was abit sweet for me as I am not a sweet tooth person. The good thing is, it was really steamy hot which allow you to put the bean sprouts into the broth to cook it properly. The milk tea was nice with the milk jelly. New menu is easy to understand. The service was great. I only put 4 stars cos I know they will only get better by the day. Look, atleast we don't have to go far for pho if you live around the area."
"1st timers at this quaint Vietnamese restaurant- we had Beef stew & beef lemongrass noodles. Both delicious but make sure you have any empty stomach big dishes & lots of beef in each dish. We will be back again. Staff were fantastic was like being back in Vietnam"
"I loved it :) Very charming Vietnamese restaurant. Truly felt like “ mum’s food “. The beef noodle soup was truly delicious. Also, the music on the background was very relaxing."
