Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Casual Viet in the busy, foodie street that is Chapel St, Windsor

Sept 2018 • friends

You can't go wrong with some cheap Vietnamese with friends and a glass of wine. New Wind sits at the foodie end of Chapel Street, Windsor. The food is decent, not ground-breaking or particularly memorable, but it does the job with a lot of Vietnamese dishes to select from. You can't go past a rare-beef pho!

Dont go here if you have allergies or are vegan

Feb 2021 • friends

Told the staff i was vegan and allergic to egg/dairy. I asked the waitor twice if he was sure that the food i wanted to order was vegan and without dairy/egg. I was given egg noodles and roti bread that had been cooked in butter. If i had a drink before i probably would of been in hospital. Good thing i figured it out before i put it in my mouth. Staff who made the mistake didnt appologise, owner didnt even ask me what i wanted he just placed an undercooked meal infront of my face and wanted me to pay for it. Cant say they will do better next time, i think they just found me to be irritating or a joke of somesort. Wouldnt recommend.

Best Pho in Melbourne !

Feb 2020 • none

My mom and I briefly visited Melbourne in Feb 2020. We are glad we found this restaurant. Their food is amazing !! We are both Vietnamese. My mom is a good cook and even she ran out of compliments for this restaurant. We tried many dishes, from the stir-fried noodle, Pho, Lambs, to their cocktails and everything was delicious and plentiful. For our 4-day visit in Melbourne, we ended up coming here 3 times ! Seriously, you have to try this place out !

Delicious, fresh, and healthy!

Dec 2019 • family

Just beautiful! My mum and I ate here a few days ago, on one of those boiling 40 degree days. We wanted something light and tasty, so we ordered salads and some crispy boned duck to share. I got the chicken laab and my mum got the soft shell crab salad. Both were amazing. We were blown away by the flavours and the freshness of the food. I would have licked the plate if I could have. Such good value too. Will definitely be back!

Great place for a catchup with friends

Sept 2019 • none

Incredible food, we had an open banquet for about 15 people, was a really good way to taste the menu here. The food kept coming until we couldn't eat any more, letting the Chef select the options. So tasty and fresh, just delicious! There's plenty to choose from at the bar as well

Don’t bother

Aug 2019 • couples

Liked the modern look and ambience of this restaurant, so thought we would give it a try. Happy hour - bonus! Sadly most of the food - bogus! The only worthy item which was good was the entree bao! The prawn entree for $14 was one of the biggest ripoffs. Two grilled small old prawns on a skewer with a bit of lettuce. I complained to the manager at the end but he couldn’t care less. The Kway Teow was oily, sloppy and overpriced and the Pork Belly Claypot which we were told as one of their specialities, was very average. $100 bill at the end - overpriced, especially since we had a bad MSG hangover the next day! Steer clear. Won’t ever recommend this place - don’t be fooled by the happy hour!

Great beer, great restaurant, and—surprisingly—the best pho I've had outside Vietnam.

Mar 2019 • couples

We went without a reservation on Saturday night and were extremely pleased with New Wind. The draught beer is very reasonably priced and ice cold. I spend most of my year in Vietnam and—very surprisingly—the pho here was the best I've had in Melbourne—better even than what you'll find in Footscray and Richmond. And try the bo lá lốt (beef wrapped in betel leaf). A rare find even in Vietnam, and delicious here.

Totally unacceptable , reviews say it all, some times good sometimes terrible.

Nov 2018 • friends

Went on a Thursday night and restaurant was half full so not busy, ordered Bao’s for starters and had to wait to 35 minutes, that’s right 35 minutes. Asked specifically not to bring all main dishes at once and since the Bao’s were delayed then it was never going to end good. It was Like talking to a brick wall. What really got me upset was one of the Vietnamese waiters thought by simply smiling would solve all the issues. Expensive, crap service and not even recognition to say sorry. Well sorry, I’ll never be back again. However must admit the food was very nice, but there is more than just good food.

One of the best on Chapel

Oct 2018 • couples

My boyfriend and I turned up on a Saturday night on chapel street which is peek hour for most restaurants looking for a casual bite to eat. The restaurants we wanted to dine at had a minimum wait of 30mins. We were starving! So I looked at New Wind from across the road and could see the restaurant had been refurbished since I’d been there last which was a few years back and I could see it also had a few spare tables. So we decided to try it. We ordered clearly more than we could chew and really couldn’t fault any of the food. It was scrumptious with fresh explosions of flavor. Staff were attentive and “happy hour” appeared to be on the menu most of the evening. We now frequent this restaurant at least once a week. Reasonably priced, great food and good service

Very disappointing

July 2018 • friends

We have been here a couple of times, the last time there were problems but decided to try again. Mistake!! They brought out one meal way before the others, I told them that I thought it wad wrong but they said no. In the end I ate my 'vegetarian' curry and when I got towards the end, found meat in it! Other meals were ok... wouldn't rush back.

Fantastic

July 2018 • family

Great food and excellent value. The friendly staff really made the night. The highlight was the chef getting on the piano at the end of the night and playing requests - a night to remember for all the right reasons.
