This newly opened restaurant in Springvale South offers a simple menu but high-quality dishes. The oxtail noodle soup is a highlight, maintaining traditional flavors and fitting well with the palate. The three-color dessert is also very good. The staff is friendly, and prices are reasonable. It’s an ideal spot for those who enjoy Vietnamese cuisine.

On Friday 10th May 2025 my partner and I went to Bà TỒ in Springvale South. We made a booking over the phone and was greeted and welcomed by Cindy and her nephew Andy. They were very polite and well mannered. I ordered the Vietnamese Shaking Beef - 18.00, Milk Coffee - 7.00 and 1 Caramel Flan - 3.50 = 28.50. I really enjoyed my selection of food, drink and dessert. The dish came out quickly too. On Saturday 10th May 2025 I decided I wanted to take my mum and dad there on Sunday 18th May 2025 for Mother’s Day breakfast / lunch. I made a booking. My partner wasn’t feeling well, so I decided to go there and cancel my booking. Ordered in person for my family instead and was served by Thuy, Cindy and Nancy’s mother My. I ordered Vietnamese Shaking Beef Rice Plate - 18.00, Seafood Egg Noodles Stir Fry - Beef, vegetable, squid, shrimp, onions, sauce, egg noodles - 18.00, Sizzling Beef with Bread - 19.00, Grilled Pork and Spring Rolls and Vermicelli - 16.00, 2 x Vietnamese Corn and Sticky Rice - 14.00, Milk Coffee - 7.00, Three Colours Dessert - 7.00 = 101.65. The food was delicious and customer service was spot on, food was fresh, prepared quickly was excellent too. I’m excited to try out quite a few of the dishes on the menu. I felt spoilt for choice. I will definitely keep this place in mind when it comes to breakfast, lunch or dinner. The shop is clean and tidy, which is quite impressive. A huge shout out to the front of house, chefs, and kitchen hands in the back. Your positivity, effort, and teamwork is second to none and always appreciated by customers. I look forward to returning with friends and family. This place is a hidden gem. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Very highly recommended Vietnamese restaurant. The best in Springvale South! Authentic & delicious Vietnamese dishes and yummy desserts too. Beautiful, clean & warm atmosphere. Very friendly staffs with warm & happy smiles that make you always feel welcomed with wonderful service. Nancy & the rest of Ba To team deserve 10 stars

Really nice place to eat. Have been here many times as a couple but also with friends. Good number of people is between 2 and 4 people, but can seat more. For the weekend you WILL need to book ahead because it's small and can be packed. Very small space but well done. Could be a little hygienic. Lady at the front coughed several times straight onto the counter where a drink was, didn't cover mouth or anything. But the place is clean for the most part and well presented.

What a fantastic find this restaurant was. Situated in a little shopping strip in Springvale South, it is honestly probably the best Vietnamese food I’ve eaten in Melbourne. The ingredients are fresh and tasty, the restaurant is spotlessly clean and the staff are lovely. Get there and give it a go!

Good local one away from the springvale traffic that I can easily get to. The staff was very friendly and nice and I felt welcome. The food was good portion and decent to eat. The desserts were actually the highlight of our meal with the Thai dessert and Lotus tea! Yum! Very busy on a Friday night and we lucky got in just a minute before that chaos but still, they managed well. Will come back for the convenience of the location and the some other dishes I haven’t tried.

Food here is really good! Flavour is different from other Vietnamese restaurants around. I think it’s better. Will definitely become a regular here. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
