We only recently discovered this amazing new Vietnamese restaurant in erindale and absolutely loved it. Every dish is home cooked and made from scratch, down to the sauces and marinades. The prices were incredibly reasonable with a huge banh mi costing 11$, coming with generous amount of crispy pork, self pickled vegetables and home made pate. The service was incredible as the owner gave us backgrounds on all the dishes and how he first started up Halcyon Nest. Apart from the meal itself, we also loved the complementary herbal tea. Next time, we will definitely come back with the whole family.

Came for a stroll in erindale for dinner. Found this little gem. Great food with a homely atmosphere of a small asian diner. The portions were perfect and the amount meat in the pho was great. We tried a range of food all of which was delicious and priced so conservatively. A fantastic meal and wholesome experience.

Halcyon Vietnamese is a cozy Canberra spot run by a warm husband and wife duo who go above and beyond—especially for gluten-free diners.
Their beef pho is rich, fragrant, and made with gluten-free stock and sauces, a rare find. The grilled pork skewers are tender, flavourful, and come with a perfectly runny egg, pickled veg, and fresh salad—all gluten-free.
Friendly, accommodating, and deeply flavourful, Halcyon is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Vietnamese food without the gluten worry.

Normally I’m not a big fan of boned chicken, however, I got the five spice Maryland chicken and rice at the owner’s recommendation, and it was the best chicken I’ve ever had. The meat was practically falling off the bone and the skin was delicious and crispy. It was delicious and easy to eat and the rest of the meal was incredibly tasty and very filling. The blue tea blend we had was a lovely, gentle floral flavour that was the perfect accompaniment to lunch. Overall this restaurant is an excellent breakfast and lunch spot with a nice, bright atmosphere.

Nice authentic Vietnamese food at reasonable price. The service was good. We had beef pho and grilled pork rice noodle salad which were delicious.
