Penangites conduct hold professed their dearest for Vietnamese nutrient together with there's an increase inwards novel Vietnamese restaurants to hold upwards amongst the burgeoning demand. Mekong Vietnamese Restaurant is 1 of the few newly opened Vietnamese joints inwards Penang. Unlike close Vietnamese restaurants, Mekong takes on a to a greater extent than sophisticated approach. The eatery has a proper setting sans the Vietnamese frills, it did non practice a really "Vietnamese" atmosphere but the Vietnamese-focused card proven otherwise (we believe the eatery is manned past times Vietnamese). It has all the signature Vietnamese dishes that whatsoever Malaysian tin maybe name; cost points are however, higher than expected.

We dropped the green Beef Pho together with proceeded amongst the Vermicelli Noodles amongst grilled Lemongrass Beef together with nosotros were glad that nosotros did so. The Beef was expertly marinated together with meticulously grilled; it was well-seasoned amongst a acquit upon of Black Pepper. With the pickled Radish/ Carrot together with the crunchy greens, the dish was close appetizing together with delicious. It would travel fifty-fifty meliorate if the dish tin travel less-oily.
While the Spring Rolls were standard-average, the Vietnamese Pancake was a disappointment. It was extremely greasy, nosotros fifty-fifty flora the bottom of the Pancake was swimming inwards oil. The edges were crispy but the overall gustation did non shine. We've had meliorate ones at other Vietnamese restaurants (in Penang).
