  Excellent food. The quality dishes and fresh, authentic ingredients were exactly what we were looking for. We were served by Giang who was very attentive and happy to do their best for our experience.

  I had an amazing dining experience here! Every single dish we ordered was absolutely delicious, and honestly, there wasn’t a single disappointment. The flavors were authentic, fresh, and beautifully balanced. What I loved the most was how each dish could be enjoyed with a variety of fresh herbs, lettuce, rice paper, and different dipping sauces. Wrapping everything together created so many layers of texture and flavor—it made every bite exciting. At the same time, it felt surprisingly healthy because of all the fresh vegetables. We especially enjoyed the grilled beef skewers, crispy Vietnamese pancake, fried rice, and stir-fried vegetables. Everything tasted fresh and was prepared with great attention to detail. The portions were generous, making it a wonderful place to share different dishes with friends or family. I would also like to give a special thank you to Giang, who provided excellent service throughout our meal. She was incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive. She always checked on us with a smile and cleared our table quickly, making the whole dining experience smooth and comfortable. If you’re looking for authentic Vietnamese food with outstanding flavors, fresh ingredients, and exceptional service, I highly recommend this restaurant. I would definitely come back the next time I’m in Ho Chi Minh City!

  One of the best eats we had at Ho Chi Minh! Food was fresh! Flavors were subtle but surely hit a mark. I loved their dipping sauces, not too sour not to sweet--perfect! The meats were cooked well. My friend wasn't a big fan of pork, but loved the pork dish we got the most. The staff was very friendly and helped us through the menu. We had no trouble ordering and paying. Sometimes I still crave the food I ate here. Would definitely eat here again when I visit!

  Had bánh xèo (Vietnamese savory crepe) and cơm tấm (broken rice) today and honestly so satisfying. The bánh xèo was crispy on the outside, packed with bean sprouts, and shrimp inside. Wrapped it in rice paper with fresh herbs and dipped in nước mắm — light, fresh, and full of flavor. The cơm tấm had that classic charcoal-grilled pork + fried egg + nước mắm combo. Simple but so satisfying, and the broken rice texture was a nice touch. Overall: Highly recommend, would definitely go back 👍

  Second branch of super popular Vietnamese a la carte restaurant. The food quality is consistently high, which is a huge plus in Ho Chi Minh City. Many say their Banh Xeo is even better than at specialty shops. Other highlights include fresh spring rolls and Kho Quet (steamed vegetables with a savory-sweet dipping sauce) that showcase the best of local ingredients. With friendly staff and a lovely interior inspired by the peaceful Vietnamese countryside, it’s a wonderful place to dine.Their main branch is at Le Thanh Ton Street near Ben Thanh Market.

  The staff at the reception was very kind. She escorted us with an umbrella under heavy rain from our ride into the restaurant. Giang was very helpful and friendly. The foods were as good as they looked and the general ambience was pleasant.
