Straight Outta Saigon

  • Restaurant
  • Casual dining

Straight Outta Saigon serves up the bold, vibrant flavours of southern Vietnam in the heart of Melbourne’s CBD – with a serious side of 90s hip-hop nostalgia. Step inside and you’ll be hit with the scent of sizzling street fare, the thump of old-school beats, and a cocktail list as colourful as the laneways outside.

From crowd favourites like banh mi bites, Saigon baos, crispy fried rice and bò kho, to the new lunch menu starring steaming bowls of slow-cooked pho, golden spring rolls and crispy chicken, every dish is a nod to Saigon’s bustling streets.

Whether you’re after a quick lunch, pre-gig feast or late-night bite, expect authentic southern flavours, tropical elixirs, and street food with attitude – no frills, just flavour.
