Bowen Hills

Updated: Jan 12, 2026

Mrs Luu’s brings fresh budget Vietnamese food to a back street of Bowen Hills, a second arm of their highly successful no-frills eatery Mrs Luu’s Vietnamese Canteen in Milton.

At lunchtime, local office workers queue out onto the footpath for their quick fix of delicious banh mi, rice paper rolls and bang bang chicken salad and Vietnamese iced coffee.

Like its Milton counterpart, the menu is all about simplicity and efficiency, and meals can be taken away or eaten alfresco at a bench under an umbrella.

The signature Mrs Luu’s banh mi comes with beef, chicken, omelette, pork or multi (3 little piggies) fillings, while Rice Bowl options are beef, chicken, pork meatballs, tofu or pork. Rice noodle salads include most of the same except with pork spring rolls instead of meatballs. There are also a couple of daily salads, and portions are generous.

Rice paper roll fillings include prawn and pork or BBQ pork and to drink, customers can enjoy refreshing iced coffee, coconut juice or lemon iced tea.

The menu may have changed since our visit.
