My husband and I were looking for a restaurant and when we saw La Tonkinoise we were excited about having a South-east Asian meal. On the terrace, there were three tables available; litterused utensils and plates and napkins indicating that people had just left. Since it was a bit windy, I wanted to sit inside. I looked and saw that only two of the tables were taken, ALL the others were available. When I asked the guy, in English, if we could sit inside, he very rudely said: NO! All taken, ALL reserved. I asked about the tables outside, and he said that also the tables outside were reserved. Now, mind you, this is August 7, a Sunday. France is on holidays! Clermint-Ferrand is deserted. Most...
Really: don't go here; there are many nicer eateries in the same streets. We had a set menu lunch midweek. The quality of the food was poor (very fatty, for example); it didn't resemble any oriental food i've ever had before (e.g. the satay' sauce didn't taste remotely like satay sauce in any other country I've visited; the canard lacque' was also unlike anything my partner had ever eaten). An automatic room freshener of the kind normally found in toilets squirts horrid perfume at you every quarter hour.The restaurant is also badly in need of refurbishing.
An incredible place with adorable chefs and cooks. They pay attention to each customer’s excellent food, I have deadly allergies to seafood they paid attention to every detail. If I had to advise you a Vietnamese restaurant, I'll tell you the one without hesity. This place is fantastic thanks again to the bosses who are brother and sister elsewhere. Good evening and I hope you will taste their wonderful foods.
Every time I visit Clermont-Ferrand I eat here at least once. My favorite dishes are the bo bun bowls (especially thailandaise and parisienne) fresh and simple, perfect during the hot summer months. The neighborhood is great to view the Cathédrale, and Cafe Pascal is just at the top of the hill for a refreshing drink before or after dinner.

I've been there twice. The noodle with pork dumplings was perfect , soup taste has good smell and delicious. I also tried salad with spring roll , crispy pork and rice noodle mixed up together with the vietnam style dressing , the taste of this dish is fully impressive. I recommend you to try!
I ordered My Xao and I should say the sauce was too salty ! Choose well ur plate... The other plates could be okay. Service is slow but not so bad as well.
We can dine outside in a little street. The food is great. We tried the bo bun. There wasnt ban xea any more (too late :-( )
Excellent reception despite late hour very good quality price A big bravo
