Thien Nam Restaurant

Best Known For

Thien Nam braised duck, with egg noodle soup.

For the authentic flavours of Vietnamese and Chinese cuisine, Melbourne foodies head along Glenferrie Road to find Thien Nam Restaurant. Choose to dine alfresco streetside and watch the world pass by, or dine indoors where the walls are lined with an imaginary bookcase, red ceilings set a moody vibe and large globe lighting casts a warm glow over the restaurant. An extensive menu offers everything from Vietnamese beef pho soup to deep-fried crispy quail, stir-fries and rice dishes; think entrées like fresh pork and prawn rice paper rolls, chicken and sweetcorn soup and satay beef skewers. For a memorable main, choose mixed seafood with black bean sauce on steamed rice; or caramelised braised pork served in a hot pot, best enjoyed with sides of steamed rice and stir-fried vegetables.
