Upstairs

Restaurant★ Michelin₫₫₫₫1.8 km

Set above a wine bar, this intimate spot has just four tables in its calm interior of curved lines and a palette of soft pinks and beige tones. Chef Hiep Truong's modern Vietnamese tasting menu, rooted in Central traditions, puts an elegant spin on classics such as gỏi bò cà, in which Wagyu tartare meets aubergine purée and egg yolk in a crisp shell. The wine list features boutique wineries, with a selection by the glass recommended by a savvy sommelier.

Hum Garden

RestaurantBib Gourmand₫₫1.3 km

This attractive house with a pleasant courtyard, patio and quaint furnishings nestles on a quiet street in a residential area outside the city centre. The Vietnamese-inspired vegetarian cuisine, rich in modern twists, uses fresh, mostly organic ingredients sourced directly from local farms. The deep-fried mushroom rolls are out of this world. A bowl of longan and lotus seed sweet soup, chilled and refreshing is the perfect sweet finale.

Chị Mơ

RestaurantBib Gourmand₫₫1.4 km

(The restaurant is temporarily closed.) Opened in 2025, this restaurant boasts an inviting outdoor garden terrace. Inside, shelves of house-made ferments – chilli sauces, garlic vinegars – reflect the dedication of the chef, who melds Western technique and local soul. Phở is the highlight: with a choice of three full-bodied broths, it is made with fresh bones and simmered for 24 hours. Grilled bagrid catfish with crispy rice crackers and umami shrimp paste brings balance, complexity and smoky, textured depth.

Akuna

Restaurant★ Michelin₫₫₫₫5.4 km

In tune with the restaurant’s name, meaning “flowing water” in the Australian Aboriginal language, the 1,200 light rods hung around the open kitchen evoke a shimmering stream at sunset. Just like flowing water, Chef Aisbett weaves and bends the rules as he casts unexpected light on familiar produce, both local and imported. In the tasting menu, creative European dishes with Vietnamese influences never fail to wow. Aussie and international wine pairing available.

Phở Chào

RestaurantBib Gourmand₫4.2 km

Despite expanding, Phở Chào has lost none of street-side charm. Choose between a rich three-day beef-bone stock and chicken broth. Top dishes include phở bắp hoa with medium-rare beef, crispy fried chicken gà tôm mắm sốt, and phở tine – a fusion of beef noodle soup, French fries and cheese.

Sóno

Restaurant₫₫₫1.1 km

Opened in 2022, this BOM Hospitality Group restaurant has a dimly lit interior, making the open kitchen a focal point. Chef Kiên Phan blends traditional and modern, crafting dishes that reflect a deep respect for Vietnamese culture.

Reservations are recommended for this refined experience.
