Been here a few times now. Travelled all the way from the south. Love betel leaf beef dish. The sauce it comes with is great. A lot of the other dishes are quite good with some Viet street food dishes you don't usually get from other Viet restaurants. Planning to keep coming back to try different uncommon dishes.
Have dined in and used takeaway/Uber eats and always delivers great tasting food. The menu offers Vietnamese street foods, quick meals and traditional dishes for family to share the old fashioned way. The beverages are well presented as well as Tate good. The custard apple smoothie and the lychee tea is a favorite for me.
One of the best Vietnamese restaurant in Adelaide at the moment, food is authentic and licking good! Went three times already and have never left disappointed, if you would like to try Vietnam street food or good coffee you must try!!
As soon as I started hearing about Vietnamese street food I knew I needed to try Gao restaurant. The food was delicious. We focussed on the "snacks" but will be back to try their soups and other meals as the weather gets cooler. They serve beer but if you want anything else you will need to bring your own which is fine however, if you bring something with a cork bring a corkscrew as well. Friendly service.
Dinner at @gao_adelaide: delicious Vietnamese food, and it's dishes that you don't normally see at other Vietnamese restaurants. Such big portions too ????????. . Banh beo chen - steamed cups of rice flour, topped with wet/dry shrimp, scallion oil, toasted peanuts, fried shallots, bread crumbs: we have never had this dish before, and it was really tasty! The flavours were really nice ????????. Apparently it is some form of street food. . Bot chien - Vietnamese fried rice cake with eggs, served with scallions, pickled carrots and sweet soy sauce: this was similar to a Malaysian dish, with fried rice cakes in an omelette. This was super yummy ????????. . Caramelised fish sauce chicken wings: you can't go wrong with chicken wings, especially when the sauce is so sticky and delicious ????????????????. . Fried king prawns: I found the batter a bit too thick, but the flavours were good! The prawns were very tender and juicy too.
