It is an excellent and authentic Vietnamese restaurant with a wide variety of food. The taste and ingredients are very authentic. The price is not outstanding, but it is worthy of its taste. The price-performance ratio is very high. Pay special attention to if you like seafood. They have many choices, but the price will be relatively expensive. Whether you are with friends or a family, this is a suitable restaurant for you.

My favourite Vietnamese restaurant in Birmingham. They serve Vietnamese food with the exact taste as in Vietnam. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, and the staff were really friendly. I have been there many times and will come back again.

I had a chef-kissed experience at Viet N Crab restaurant even though it was just a random pick during my first visit to Birmingham. The food and drinks were delicious and authentically Vietnamese. The sour fish soup especially reminded me of a comforting homemade one. The staff were lovely and friendly. Highly recommend if you're looking for a taste of home or just great Vietnamese food. 🤌

Viet N Crab Restaurant - Birmingham 🦀🍜🇻🇳 What an incredible find! 😍 This brand-new Vietnamese seafood gem in Birmingham is a must-visit! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was welcoming and vibrant ✨. The staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home 💛. We ordered the signature crab boil 🦀🌶️ – perfectly seasoned, fresh, and absolutely packed with flavour! The pho 🍲 was aromatic and comforting, and the spring rolls 🥢 were crispy perfection. Every dish tasted authentic and beautifully presented. Portions were generous, prices reasonable 💷, and the quality? Top-notch! 👌 Highly recommend for seafood lovers and anyone looking to explore real Vietnamese flavours. Birmingham’s food scene just got a serious upgrade! 🚀🇻🇳 We’ll definitely be back! 🔥🦐🍽️
