About Red Lotus Vietnamese Chargrill

Smoky grill aromas and generous portions set the tone at this vibrant Annerley mainstay. The kitchen handles rich broths alongside playful house specialties—anchored by cuts like Pepsi-marinated pork belly and crisp-skinned chicken with fried rice. Diners catering to mixed dietary crowds rely on the dedicated plant-based lineup, particularly the deeply spiced vegan broth laden with mock meats and crisp salt-and-pepper tofu. Red lotus lamps cast a warm glow across a dining room that fills fast for family banquets, complete with stir-fried morning glory and green papaya salad.

  • Dedicated Vegan Menu: Features an intense vegan pho loaded with mock meats alongside crisp salt-and-pepper tofu.
  • Smoky Chargrill Cuts: Fires up generous classics like roast duck, crispy chicken, and sweet-savory Pepsi-marinated pork belly.

  • Distinctive Pepsi Chargrill Marinades

    Distinct house marinades like Pepsi-tenderized pork belly and ribs provide tender, memorable chargrill flavors rarely found at typical eateries.

    All of the dishes I tried were fantastic but the standout for me was the Pepsi Marinated Pork Belly. My goodness! How do they tenderise the meat so well?!

  • Dedicated Depth for Plant-Based Diners

    Plant-based diners enjoy full culinary depth with dedicated offerings including intense-flavor vegan pho loaded with faux meats and crispy tofu.

    The flavour was very intense which is interesting because I'd never had that flavour of pho before

    Bountiful banquet portions and feast-sized spreads make group gatherings and family birthdays deeply satisfying with food to spare.

    We ate like kings at a feast. They even had to bring an extra table over which was crazy.

Beyond the menu

Thoughtful hospitality details and distinctive kitchen touches that elevate casual Vietnamese dining.

  • Crafted Vegan Broths and Plant-Based Specialties

  • Pepsi Marinades and Playful Menu Commentary

    The kitchen features distinctive house creations like tender Pepsi-marinated pork belly and ribs, alongside playful, humorous menu side notes that entertain diners while they order.

  • Proactive Table Extensions for Feast Banquets

    To comfortably accommodate family banquets where generous feast portions easily overwhelm table space, staff promptly bring over extra adjoining tables to manage the spread.

  • Preemptive Takeaway Container Service

    To make taking home hearty feast leftovers seamless, staff bring out takeaway containers before guests even have to ask.

Before you head over

Helpful recommendations on reservations, dietary ordering, and arrival times for a smooth visit

  • Book ahead for peak hours

    The dining room fills up quickly during peak evening rushes, and walk-ins frequently face long waits or missing out entirely. Secure a table reservation in advance to guarantee your spot.

  • Check vegan availability early

    The restaurant offers extensive plant-based options like vegan pho and crispy tofu, but specific items like laksa or curries can sell out, so keep backup choices in mind.

  • Plan for parking and peak waits

    Street parking along the immediate vicinity is tight, and takeout or dine-in orders during the 7 pm to 8 pm rush often require extra patience as dishes are prepared to order.
