Plan your visitAbout Goc Viet Vietnamese Eatery
Tucked into Market Square, this Sunnybank spot deals in regional Vietnamese cooking rarely found across Brisbane. Regulars bypass typical noodle bowls for the Phở Tái Lăn—beef seared hard in a pan before hitting the broth to impart a smoky wok-hei. Tables double down on Northern bún chả piled with charred pork patties and fresh herbs, or tear into crisp baguettes dipped straight into rich tomato-sauced meatballs.
- Northern-Style Bún Chả: Pork patties charred over flame, served with vermicelli, fresh greens, and warm dipping sauce.
- Wok-Seared Phở Tái Lăn: Beef flash-seared before hitting the noodle broth, bringing deep smoky flavor to the bowl.
- Baguette with Meatballs: Tender pork meatballs simmered in a savory tomato broth, built for dipping with a crisp baguette.

Why Dine at Goc Viet Vietnamese Eatery
Discover authentic Northern and Southern Vietnamese regional cooking in Sunnybank—plan your visit today.
Regional North and South Specialties
Rather than serving only standard suburban pho and rice paper rolls, the kitchen excels at regional specialties from both North and South Vietnam, including charcoal-fragrant Bún Chả and Northern pork platters.
They do exceptionally well with dishes from both the North and South, which is rare for a Vietnamese restaurant.
Trang Le Wok-Seared Pho Beef
Unlike traditional pho where sliced beef is scalded by hot soup, the Phở Tái Lăn features pan-seared beef that imparts a distinct wok-hei aroma and richness directly into the broth.
Instead it's been stir fried first and this infuses an extra dimension of flavour to the soup.
Winston Wong Uncommon Regional Repertoire
Diners discover dishes rarely found on suburban menus, ranging from Northern turmeric fish and tomato crab cake noodle soup to specialty beverages like green mango pressed with salted plum.

Bún Chả
They serve one of my all-time favourite Vietnamese dishes, Bun Cha, and they do it so well.
Jenaira Ninotska Obrero Phở Tái Lăn
The pho is different to your standard one as the beef isn't raw going into the soup. Instead it's been stir fried first and this infuses an extra dimension of flavour to the soup. Lovely.
Winston Wong Bánh Xèo
banh xeo is my must order every time i visit. Crispy and fresh.
Sally Quin Meatballs with Baguette
However, I think the best part with the meal was their meatballs and baguette. My goodness, if I could drink that tomato based sauce that those meatballs were sitting in I would. It was so good!
