Forever such a long time, Ben 's Vietnamese has been one of the long running heavyweights within Brisbane 's inner central area. That is for many good reasons, most which chalk up to having no sense of pretension in their blood at any point. It is all about having a good time, most of which comes down to having great food in front of you. That is something that is understood really well here, and as a result we have found a winner. It is one of the go to choices for a meal at short notice. <br/ <br/ From the last time I went out with her for dinner, I made a brief mention of only being a few photos from expertise in the Woolloongabba area. That was only a passing mention, but it was enough t...
A safe and unpretentious Vietnamese and Chinese restaurant in South Brisbane, Ben's restaurant is a classic go-to for your simple weekend dinners if all you want is good company and hearty food. The menu boasts all the authentic Vietnamese classics including pho, rice paper rolls and sizzling hot plates that will easily satisfy those partial to Vietnamese and Chinese cuisine. Deciding to stick with what we knew, we ordered the do-it-yourself rice paper rolls (served with the standard salad ingredients and the oh-so-good nuoc cham dipping sauce) with a variation of 3 meats- pork balls, lemongrass pork cutlet and marinated beef hot plate. Simple, generously-served and delicious. The restaurant...
Celebrated my friends birthday and she always claim the boring menu of Vietnamese restaurant so we specially arrange a ‘Seven beef course banquet’ for this special occasion.<br/ This banquet include the beef ball soup, beef ginger Hoisin salad, skewered beef with Betel leaf, skewered beef with salad, beef hot plate, beef vinegar fondu and beef congee.<br/ Honestly, it was the second time that I had similar banquet; the first experience was at least 20 years ago in the West End and this one is even better. <br/ The whole banquet fed us so full. If not because the second last one came with vinegar, we might probably miss the hero of the night beef congee.<br/ Overall, for the price of $30.50 p...
I've bumped up Ben's rating from 2.5 to 3.5 following a positive experience and lots of positive feedback from friends and colleagues. Still inconsistent, but my original rating was a bit too harsh.Original review below:Good value $20-25/person), but food is inconsistent. I live and work in the area, so have tried Ben's on several occasions. The menu is a bit hit or miss. I enjoyed the sweet and sour pork and the fried rice, but other dishes weren't up to par. Never ceases to amaze me when I walk by late in the evening on a Friday or Saturday and the place is rocking out with Karaoke...people seem to really enjoy themselves. The food and service warrants 2.5 stars. If you are really in...

I have been going to this place for as long as I can remember ... we used to go with family and get the Steam boat Hot Pot to share but nowadays I eat one thing and one thing only The seafood clear rice noodle soup. I dont come here for the service or the atmosphere, but this is my go to for a much needed noodle fix (which occurs once a month at least! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. The soup is full of flavour, the prawns are crunchy and fresh, and I love the wilted lettuce in the broth dipped in a chilli sauce/hoisin/lemon mix. So yummy! It has gone up in price slightly but I am still happy to pay for it as long as it continues to taste amazing!
Although the service was fast and prompt, it felt quite rushed. A slightly more expensive price range compared to your usual Vietnamese/Chinese joint however this is most likely due to location. Our whole table had a bowl of Pho noodle soup each and I can say it was quite good. I'd personally say that it's better to take the trek to sunnybank/Inala for your Chinese/Vietnamese cuisine fix but if you're not wanting to then this place ain't so bad
This time together with Mr, we visited Ben’s for lunch. Quite a bit has changed in this complex and I have noted some new restaurants and bakery, which I am sure will attract the staffs from Mater Hospital. I was craving for pho so we ordered their combination beef pho, and it did not disappoint. The broth was hearty and it was generous in terms of the beef and noodles.
Enjoyed this place for many years, has been around for ages. Was the very first time I tried Deep Fried Ice Cream and was very impressed : Can be quite busy, so slow service. However the Plum Duck is amazing.<br/ Price: $80 for 4 people approx. $20 per/p<br/ <br/ -10/05/16

Service was slow but the seafood Chow Mein was had a nice flavour and the king prawns a good size. The decor could be updated but not a derterent for me not to eat there again
I mean the food is great but the place seems quite unclean and unhygienic. Hair has been found in food and the food tends to be quite oily..
