Don't eat here. The average, expensive food was served in tiny portions. Not the Vietnamese cuisine advertised (they didn't even have Pho).



The waiting staff was apathetic at best. They tried to clear before we were finished and after we had finished they took a half hour to get the bill.



And the most outrageous... they had a mandatory service charge of 15% for a party of two that we tried to get taken off but nobody spoke English well enough to discuss it. Overall, horrible value for money.

I have always loved Nam Long. You need to take it with a large pinch of salt. Go for fun, for a good time, to drink fabulous cocktails and eat lovely food. Go to people watch. Just don't take it or yourself too seriously. Don't go if you are easily offended, it is often loud, smoky and full of boisterous people feeling rather full of themselves. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em - with tongue firmly in cheek.

The Nam Long is one of the worst restaurants I have been to. The staff are very rude and unfriendly, very impatient and pushy. The place is over decorated with Vietnamese/Chinese art, too dark, too loud and too smoky.

There is no non-smoking section available, which makes it very uncomfortable for non-smokers to eat in this place.

Apart from the Staff, the Manager as well is very rude and the drinks and the food are overpriced. There is no comfortable atmosphere in the restaurant and the space is not efficiently used, making it too crowded and one is almost sitting on the neighbouring table, as it is so densely packed.

Personally, being native Vietnamese, I woulnd't recommend anyone that wants to experience the great Vietnamese cuisine to eat at the Nam Long, but go to smaller, and maybe less posh restaurants, where they can be sure though to get good service and good food.

I loved Nam Long! The moment you set foot inside the door you feel as though you enter a different world. The Nam Long is alive with all types of people, celebs includued! The gorgeous aroma from the kitchen makes sure you dont leave with out sampling one of the amazing dishes!

The infamous 'flaming ferrari' cocktail at about £13 a glass is expensive but it's definitely worth it. The room echos as the ferrari engine revs and the many diners drum against their table in anticipation, it's set on fire, you drink, then you feel like you're actually on fire!
GREAT PLACE! You must try it!
