Went here as it had 5stars with 42 reviews. This does not lie and earns another 5 star review. The lady who runs the ‘trailer’ is simply fantastic. Kind, friendly and a fab maker of delicious food. The food was sublime. Crunchy baguettes and the pho, I had the chicken, was flavourful and yummy. This is a nugget of a place. Highly recommended

Rolling Chopstick has been my obsession for a few months now after I accidentally stumbled upon it one morning. I like to think of myself as bit of a Bahn mi and iced viet coffee connoisseur and to my surprise this hidden gem delivered the goods! It is hands down my favourite viet iced coffee in all of South Auckland!! The baguette for the Bahn mi is always fresh, crispy on the outside & nice and soft on the inside, and they’re generous with the filling. The prices are reasonable, especially the Bahn mi and iced coffee combo for only $20. The staff are extremely friendly and are always in a happy mood with big smiles and have really good energy, and it makes for a pleasant overall experience. I recommend this place to all my friends & family and I travel from Manukau to eat here.

I took a chance on delivery from this place as it was new to me and oh boy, did I hit the jackpot. Delishis..so fresh and fresh tofu! Can be hard to find these days. So fresh all of the food and the flavours were the perfect amount. Quite simple, homely food but done on point. Very affordable compared to other places too and tastes better as well Bonus. Highly recommend

We initially only wanted to try Banh Mi as I missed my home country's authentic taste. But the food was too tasty and authentic that we decided to give more try to Pho, Bao Bun and sugar cane juice. It was absolutely not a bad decision. We enjoyed every dish and were happy with the owner too. She is a friendly woman and complies quickly with whatever I ask for. I strongly recommend dine-in Pho in the coming winter days (as if you take it away, the soup will cool down and I'm afraid it will not be able to keep the original taste).
