Mien Tay Restaurants | Cuisine from South-West Vietnam
We are a small group of four family-run restaurants specialising in authentic home-style cooking from our native South West Vietnam.
Each restaurant is managed by a different family member under consultation from our founders Mrs My Le and Chef Mr Su Tran.
In the kitchen Chef Su insists on fresh ingredients and in the dining room Mrs My Le insists on a warm welcome.
Our menu includes traditional dishes local to the Mien Tay region – why not try some?
We can highly recommend customer favourites such as Fresh Rolls with Prawn, Vietnamese Chicken Clay-Pot Curry, Crispy Squid with Garlic, Chicken with Honey and Spices, Goat with Galangal and Chargrilled Quail with Honey, Garlic and Spices.

“The stunner of our meal was deep-fried sea bass with fish sauce and mango.
Presented whole with slivers of the just-ripe fruit, chilli and lashings of fishy nuoc mam, it was a pure harmony of flavours (sweet, salty, sour) and textures (crisp skin, moist fish, slippery mango)”“The staff at Mien Tay are astonishingly friendly – especially for London – and care so much about how you like the food that at the end of the night you’ll feel like you’ve left their home, rather than their restaurant”“it’s as if the culinary gods themselves have shined a light from the heavens and blessed SW11 with the restaurant of their dreams” “My (Pho) was heaven — worth going to Battersea for all on its own.
A big meal bowl for £5.50; the best value for anything cooked in all of Britain…There was also an exceptional dish of goat with galangal…Mien Tay may well be the best Vietnamese restaurant in London”“Last weekend we tried lunch at… Mien Tay…and were captivated by the place…Squid with garlic and salt made a delicious starter, as did a quartered quail, spicily marinated and irresistible to pick up and eat with the fingers”“If you only eat one restaurant dish this year, make it the starter of grilled quail at Mien Tay”

Sample top-notch Vietnamese cooking, with a forte in seafood, at this no-frills Kingsland Road stalwart.
Much derided for its rather unimpressive, run-down façade and pretty shabby, paint-peeling decor (which could all be remedied fairly quickly and cheaply), Mien Tay is nevertheless a great place to get authentic, top-notch food.
As for the food, stir-fried green mussels with ginger and spring onion was a delight: plump and tasty mussels, perfectly cooked à point, with a sauce that was spot-on.
Scallops with black bean sauce were equally brilliant; the chef here obviously has a way with seafood.
Lẫu, or seafood hotpot (for a minimum of two diners) seems equally appealing.
