Anton MavrinApril 2, 2016Very atmospheric, but pricey place. Comparing to other locations Pho soup cost is 3x more. Anyway, everything is tasty, delicious and this place is worth visiting.
Mariana Stuginski BarbosaOctober 12, 2015Awesome place! Tried fresh spring roll and pho! Super delicious! Washroom very very clean! Decoration is awesome! If I lived in HCM would come weekly!
- Kars AlfrinkAugust 21, 2016So much good stuff on the menu I would love to visit again. Good quality contemporary versions of Vietnamese classics in a modern French bistro style setting with cool mural artwork to boot.
Erin MillerJune 19, 2017Every dish we had here was good 👍 duck spring rolls and beef with sweet potato chips were the best. Soursop smoothie also nice. Clean facilities. Good service. Very good decor/comfortable seating.
Catarina JoséApril 16, 2017Really amazing place! We had the tasting menu with 4 plates pared with wine for approximately 25 dólares. The flavors were amazing and the bohemian/hipster style really makes you feel at home.
- Simple DiscoveriesJune 1, 2016Expensive by Vietnamese standards, but the food is really good "elevated" Vietnamese cuisine. Set menu is the way to go if hungry and you can get 2 courses for 190,000 VND.
Mariana CampeloApril 14, 2015My favorite restaurant in HCM city. Local gourmet food in interesting décor. Definitely recommend.
Sander ZuurhoutJanuary 28, 2017Absolutely a great place. As recommended by our Lonely Planet we chose the salads for lunch. Tasted very well. Ask for a table outside to feel the Saigon vibe.
Hop Hey LalaleyJanuary 12, 2019Best pho bo I tried in Vietnam. Yes, it’s not a street food place and it might be expensive for locals, but the food here is great. Good choice of everything including kraft beers. Loved it!
Laura HolmesNovember 16, 2015Gorgeous little place with excellent service. Food outstanding. Definitely worth a try when sightseeing. Try the po and the Vietnamese tofu spring rolls
Ashley DandoDecember 19, 2017Chicken and green mango salad is perfect for lunch. It’s a good spot opposite the park and they have great drinks to chose from. Happy hour is 5-8pm.
Ernesto Schmidt-MummApril 21, 2018Banh Mi is great. But also check specials. We tried coconut rice cakes with prawns and they tasted delicious. And don’t miss the juices!
Daniel NgMay 29, 2017Decent overall restaurant for simple fusion Vietnamese food. Fried crab shrimp rolls and broken rice (pork or chicken) are recommended. Arguably the best thing offered is the nước chấm (dipping sauce)
Zunnur AinApril 13, 2018One of the best cafes I went to in the city. They have good selections of salads and local foods. A bit pricey but the portion was generous hence worth a visit!
Adam McNamaraJanuary 15, 2017A modern take on traditional Vietnamese food. High quality meat, lots of fresh greens, and very generous portions. Highly recommended.
The star of this place is broken rice with honey grilled pork chopped. Besides you should try their brown rice salad. Healthy and tasty!
ulla pridaApril 4, 2017Everything was delicious! Tried the tri-colored crunchy rice with egg and chicken, curry duck noodles and spring rolls ❤
Nice salads and noodles dishes. Great airy ambience. A popular spot indeed. Sister real saturate to Au Parc next door.- David A. SymonsJanuary 25, 2017Relaxed, friendly+hipster vibes. Delicious dripped coffee to wash down a tasty banh mi or pho 🤓✌🏼
- K BJanuary 27, 2018More expensive than other places but really cool atmosphere and delicious Banh Mi. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area
Rohit MonserrateMarch 26, 2015Really liked the place the roasted chicken is amazing and the vinegar over the rice puts it over the top. Nice place 😊
Harry van den BerghFebruary 4, 2018Trendy restaurant. Classic vietnamese dishes with a twist. We did the tasting menu that paired the dishes with wine and tea. Absolutely recommended.
Julie EngesethApril 6, 2018Nice atmosphere, amazing food. We shared the mango chicken salad, the fresh tofu spring rolls and fresh juices. Delicious!
BonVivant.esDecember 9, 2016It might sound rare but the sandwiches "Banh Mi" are really nice. Our best option has been the fresh spring rolls with duck!!!
- Nic TaylorMarch 17, 2017Delicious modern Vietnamese food! The crunchy tri-coloured rice was a standout. Great ambience too, very hip and trendy.
- Gia CatalanMay 4, 2015Everything we ordered was great! Their spring rolls are indeed a must-try. Such a nice place and love the decors.
Bobby KennedyMarch 4, 2018A little fancier and catering to a more Western crowd, but the kitchen and bartenders deliver on their elevated versions of Vietnamese classic dishes and inventive cocktails.
Nova DandoDecember 29, 2019Great Food, atmosphere and brilliant for people watching. Bistro vibes. The fish soup is really good
Michelle NguyenSeptember 17, 2015Thoroughly designed throughout. Cutest and cleanest bathroom. Fresh food. The propaganda salad with quail eggs were on point!

Huyen NguyenSeptember 27, 2015Just love vietnamese propaganda posters. The food decoration is nice but a bit noisy at lunch time
Daniel GraysonApril 21, 2017My salad was mighty good. Pricey, as you'd expect a place with this level of professional polish to be, but it's nowhere near breaking your bank.
