The best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh will amaze you with bold flavors, fresh ingredients, perfect balance – and super cheap prices. We lived in Ho Chi Minh for several months and ate out almost every meal.

There are literally thousands of Ho Chi Minh restaurants worthy to visit. Keeping this list short enough to be useful was really tough. We included some better-known places, but we tired to focus on hidden gems that most tourists never visit.

Of course, it’s really subjective, but here are our picks for the best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh.

Banh Canh Ghe – Muoi Ot Xanh 

Bahn Canh Ghe is one of the best-kept secrets of Vietnamese cuisine. It was love at first sight with this gorgeous soup, and it tastes even better than it looks. If you enjoy crab, this is your soup. And this restaurant serves up the best bowl in Ho Chi Minh.

Their secret is home-made noodles, produced daily in the restaurant.

Price: 65,000VND ($2.75USD)

484 Nguyen Tri Phoung St, P 9, Q 10, Ho Chi Minh

Pho Le  

Pho is the classic Vietnamese dish. It mixes savory broth, delicate rice noodles, meat, and piles of fresh herbs. Honestly, you can find excellent bowls on every street, but the best Pho restaurant in Ho Chi Minh is a hotly debated topic.

After sampling countless worthy contenders, Pho Le is our favorite. Their broth is special. Other places make a delicious bowl, but seem to take shortcuts.

Pho Le’s broth is made in the traditional way. It takes hours of painstaking preparation, and we can taste the difference. Pho Le also offers the widest variety of meat to add to your soup.

Prices at Pho Le are a bit more expensive than other places, but worth every penny.

Price: 75,000VND ($3.25USD)

2 Locations run by same family

305 Vo Van Tam St, P 5, Q 3, Ho Chi Minh

415 Nguyen Trai St, P 7, Q 5, Ho Chi Minh

Pho 2000 

We add Pho 2000 more for its fame than for its food. Pho 2000 is the most famous restaurant in Ho Chi Minh, because President Bill Clinton ate there. The moment is commemorated on the wall and at the table where he sat. This bit of history is the main draw.

The Pho here is decent, but not great. Pho 2000 is conveniently located in the main tourist area. Unlike like many Pho restaurants, they have a good selection of other dishes too.

Price: 30,000-75000VND ($1.5-3.25USD)

3 Phan Chu Trinh St, P Bến Thành, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Bun Bo Gahn 

This restaurant serves up our favorite bowl of Bun Bo Hue (Vietnam’s second most famous dish). Like Pho, Bun Bo Hue has a savory beef broth with citrus notes from the lemongrass. Unlike Pho, the noodles are thicker and denser.

Bun Bo Hue is typically a bit spicier, but not by much. The soup at Bun Bo Gahn is delicious and authentic. The desserts called Che are also very good here.

The restaurant has a lovely setting and great location. Bun Bo Gahn is a few blocks from the main pedestrian street, Nguyen Hue.

Price: 15,000 – 48,000VND ($0.75-2.25USD)

88 Ho Tung Mau St, P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Quan Bui 

Quan Bui is one of the prettiest restaurants in Ho Chi Minh. The food is awesome and authentic too, but the beautiful décor and atmosphere is what really brings us back.

The walls, furniture, and even menus are decorated with iconic images of Vietnam and it’s people. And the food is fantastic as well.

Our favorites are the steamed Seabass and the sautéed Squid. Prices are very reasonable for such a classy spot with a range of quality dishes.

Price: 59,000-99,000VND ($2.5-4.5USD)

3 Locations

17A Ngo Van Nam St, P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

8 Nguyen Van Nguyen St, P Tân Định, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

39 Ly Tu Trong St P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Banh Mi Huynh Hoa 

A Banh Mi is a Vietnamese sandwich that looks deceptively simple. A Banh Mi is a flavor bomb that changed the way we think about sandwiches. They combine perfect baguettes with savory pork, fresh herbs, and magical, secret sauces.

There are Banh Mi stalls all over Ho Chi Minh, but “Banh Mi Huynh Hoa” is the clear champion. Even late at night, there’s always a long line of locals.

This is even more impressive because the prices here are double what a normal Banh Mi costs. These locals are not rich folks.

If they’re willing to pay double for these, they must be worth it. And in our opinion, they’re a bargain.

Price: 30,000VND ($1.25USD)

26 Le Thi Rieng, P Ben Thanh, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Quan Com Me Kong 

This is the best restaurant in Ho Chi Minh for a big hunk of grilled pork. It’s totally delicious and surprisingly cheap. We were randomly walking around District 1 when we found this hidden gem.

The fantastic smell is what drew us here. We followed our noses and discovered this place packed with nearby office workers.

As reflected in our list, noodle soups are huge in Vietnamese cuisine. They are wonderful, but sometimes you just want a slab of smoky pork. They serve them up here with a pile of fresh rice for a hearty, filling meal at an incredible price.

Price: 60,000VND ($2.5USD)

136 Suong Nuyet Anh St. P Ben Thanh, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Bahn Duc Nong Ba Gia 

You’ve probably never heard of Banh Duc Nong, but this soup is as tasty as it is unique. The combo of pork and wild mushrooms gives it a blend of savory and earthy flavors, with hints of sweet and salty in just the right balance.

Banh Duc Nong also combines a variety of textures like creamy and crunchy. It’s a real treat that most visitors never get a chance to try.

The best (and cheapest) restaurant in Ho Chi Minh for this dish is Banh Duc Nong Ba Gia.

Price: 15,000VND ($0.65USD)

76 Cuu Long St. P15, Q10, Ho Chi Minh

5KU Station 

This is one of the best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh for groups. It’s a grill-your-own meat type of place. Pick a few proteins and few veggies. Then everyone grills and shares.

The fun, festive atmosphere make 5ku wildly popular with locals and visitors. And all the grilling meats create fantastic aromas.

Beef, chicken, and pork are available, but our favorites are the variety of snails, seafood, and frogs.

Price: 80,000-150,000VND ($3.5-6.5USD)

27 Lê Thánh Tôn St. P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

The Secret Garden 

Finding a hidden, back-alley restaurant is an experience every Ho Chi Minh visitor should have. Many of the best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh are off the main roads. And the Secret Garden is one of our favorites.

It’s not that difficult to find, but you have to venture down a couple alleys, make a few turns, and climb several flights of stairs to get here.

When you finally arrive, the rooftop garden terrace seems like an oasis of calm in the chaotic city.

The menu is a collection of delicious “home-style” Vietnamese dishes. For detailed directions, check our full review of Secret Garden.

Price: 50,000-80,000VND ($2.25-3.5USD)

158 Pasteur St. P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Propaganda 

Propaganda is one of the coolest restaurants in Ho Chi Minh. The art work is beautiful, colorful, and highly symbolic of the new culture of this city.

The murals are the most outstanding features, covering several large walls. The same images decorate the upholstery and other knick knacks. All this art was created by local artists.

The food is what they call “twisted Vietnamese cuisine.” The fare is mostly classic Vietnamese dishes with new looks and new flavors. There’s an a la carte menu, but we prefer the “set lunches” and “discovery menus.”

These are a bit pricey for Ho Chi Minh city, but we found them worth every penny.

Price: 190,000-230,000VND ($8.33-10USD) for set lunches 480,000-550,000VND ($21-24USD) for “discovery menus,” wine included

21 Han Thuyen St. P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Muoi Tieu Chanh

Muoi Tieu Chanh has some of the most delicious crab in the city. It’s the kind of place where you get to pick your own crabs fresh. There are many great seafood places around Ho Chi Minh, but this is one of our favorites.

It’s only visited by locals, and it has a beautiful, wooden interior designed to look like ship. And since few tourists ever visit, the prices are fair for fresh seafood of this caliber.

Price: 100,000-200,000VND ($4.5-9USD)

Chim Cut Chien Bo 

Chim Cut Chien Bo is quail fried in butter. We never liked quail before we tried this dish, but now we eat it all the time. It’s crispy and flavorful, without being overly greasy.

Order some gizzards on the side (also fried in butter), and wash it down with some Nuoc Mia (fresh sugarcane juice).

Price: 25,000VND ($1USD)

54 Dong Nai St. P 15, Q 10, Ho Chi Minh

Ut Dieu 

Ut Dieu is classy little restaurant set back in an alley. The décor is a lovely mix of classic Vietnamese style and modern influences. The best time to visit is lunch.

They have a big set menu lunch for only a couple bucks. The specific offerings change daily, but we’ve always been happy here.

Price: 49,000VND ($2.25)

44C Bui Thi Xuan St. P Ben Thanh, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Chi Hoa 

Chi Hoa prides itself on serving up dishes that remind you of granny’s cooking – if you had a Vietnamese granny that is.

Dishes range from classic spring rolls to things that you’ve never tried. For the more adventurous eater, we recommend the fermented pork belly with rice.

Price: 30,000-100,000VND ($1.25-4.5USD)

31A Le Thanh Ton St. P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Xoi Ga Number One

Xoi Ga is sticky rice with shredded chicken. Xoi Ga Number one is the best and most convenient place to try this Vietnamese classic. The restaurant is located only a few blocks from Ben Thanh Market, but few tourists ever eat here.

Each serving of “chicken rice” is rather small so you’ll need a couple helpings to fill up. Better yet, sample some other dishes from the large menu too.

Price: 15,000-35,000VND ($0.65-1.5)

21 Nguyen Trung Truc St. P Ben Thanh, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Bo Cap Lua 

If you really want to push your culinary limits, try Bo Cap Lau. They specialize in creepy cuisine like scorpion, tarantulas, lizards, and worms as big as your thumb.

You can read about our night of adventure eating here. We wouldn’t call this restaurant delicious, but it is extraordinary and makes for lots of fun travel memories.

Price: 50,000-85,000VND ($2.25-3.75USD)

17B 11th St. P 11, Q Go Vap, Ho Chi Minh

Labor horribilis

Pour changer, je vais aujourd'hui m'insurger. J'entends déjà les vivas de la foule en délire scander les habituels slogans “t'as bien raison, c'est à cause que c'est les immigrés et les pedeboboislamogauchiss qu'y a pu de travail et que nos valeurs crai…chris….chritiennes elles partent à vaux-lo (charmante bourgade fictive du larzac), y faut qu'on soit pas d'accord et que tout sa y va changé en 2017”. Ola que non. Y'a confusion. Je ne suis pas de ce bord là. D'abord, personne n'a forcé les bons chrétiens a déserter les églises, et il n'est écrit nulle part dans la bible que le pardon et la fraternité sont des valeurs contextuelles. Mais n'oublions pas que cohérence et religiosité font souvent très mauvais ménage. Donc, pour en revenir au sujet qui m'intéresse (et si ça ne vous intéresse pas, je m'en bats littéralement mes très saintes testicules), c'est le monde du travail qui m'irrite quelque peu ces derniers temps. Et oui, quand je prends le rer chaque matin, c'est pour rejoindre le lieu de travail moderne qui me sert d'officine. Alors certes, le mobilier coûte un sacré paquet de bras etde testicules, il y a des tables de ping-pong, des baby foot, un terrain de boules, des paniers de basket et une salle de musique. Tout pour donner l'image d'une entreprise au top du disruptif et du Digital (leur plus grande réussite, imho, ce sont les affichages lcd sur les machines à café, qui sont aussi souvent en panne que le matériel roulant de la sncf. Petite piqure de rappel indispensable). Malheureusement, on peut affubler Quasimodo des atours de Brad Pitt, il n'en restera pas moins un être à la grâce et au charme tout relatif. Les balles de baby et de ping-pong ont été retirées, et on sent le regard pesant de certains collaborateurs bien de chez nous quand on squatte le flipper en dehors des sacros-saintes heures de pause (qui restent a définir plus précisément qu'un vague midi-14h. Mon collègue youssef, qui se pointe à 11h30 pour couvrir le shift du soir, ne va pas, à peine arrivé, se mettre en pause, un peu de bon sens). Le bon chef français, malgré les fameuses valeurs de solidarité dont il se réclame la plupart du temps, voit d'un mauvais oeil le sourire épanoui de ses sous-fiffres. Donc, même quand la com’ organise un tournoi, on ne s'y inscrit que sous la contrainte, et le visage masqué par un tissu. Ceci afin de dissimuler son identité aux collaborateurs cités plus haut, qui par respect des traditions, iraient rapporter à l'échelon hiérarchique supérieur que des employés s'adonnent à des activités qui semblent leur apporter joie et satisfaction. Ça y'est j'ai planté le décor, posé le climat de ma chanson (ça sent la haine, ça pue la mort….). Enfin tous ces points de détails ne sont justement que des points de detail. Ce qui me hérisse le poil, ce sont les emplois fictifs. Les intitulés de job qui ne veulent rien dire. Pour la légende, en voici quelques uns, avec les tâches qui y semblent rattachées: -AM, account manager: qui s'occupe du compte -GAM, global account manager: qui s'occupe du compte global (c'est l'AM transformé en sayen lvl 1) -SDM, service delivery manager: qui s'assure que le service est rendu -RSC, responsable service client: comme le SDM mais avec un noeud pap’ -TAM, technical account manager: qui s'occupe techniquement du compte -ISM, incident and service manager: qui s'occupe du service et des incidents -CRM, customer relationship manager: qui s'occupe de la relation client

Pour s'y retrouver, faut se lever de bonne heure. Là dedans on retrouve pèle-mêle des gens qui “cadrent” (ce qui grosso merdo ne veut rien dire, c'est comme si vous alliez chez Boulanger pour acheter un ordinateur (ce qui au passage est une idée de merde), et que le vendeur vous réponde “ok alors il faut vous acheter des composants et une souris” avant d'aller aider un autre pégu perdu dans ce merveilleux royaume de haute-technologie, localisé entre les robots-ménagers et les téléviseurs 4k de 60 pouces diffusant du Hanouna en boucle jusqu'à la nuit des temps), des gens qui “accompagnent” (par accompagnement, j'entends que le vendeur cité plus haut vous indique le chemin du rayon informatique et vous aide a porter les cartons, s'il a un peu de conscience professionnelle) et d'autres gens qui….. . Fin de la phrase avant toute chose. La ponctuation bordel. Et donc, on trouve également d'autres individus, qui remplissent des formulaires, ou demandent à d'autres de le faire, dans l'unique but de pondre des statistiques absurdes aussi utiles et précises que les sondages sur les intentions de vote. Ceux-là je les surnomme affectueusement “les parasites”. Pendant que l'homme de la technique officie sur un incident à forte criticité, le parasite aime venir toutes les 12 secondes lui demander, sur un ton énervé, où il en est de la mise-à-jour du formulaire relatif au dit-incident. C'est qu'il a des mails a rédiger le parasite, “jean bernard, responsable des cartouches d'imprimante, attend son rapport dans la matinée, et tu connais Jean-B, on ne le fait pas attendre”. MAIS JE LUI CHIE DANS LA BOUCHE A JEAN-BERNARD PUTAIN, ET TOI AUSSI JE TE CHIE DANS LA BOUCHE. RETOURNE A PAUL-EMPLOI PRÉPARER DES SANDWICHS OU RÉCURER DES TOILETTES. MAIS PUTAIN MÊME ÇA T'ES PAS FOUTU DE LE FAIRE CORRECTEMENT. T'ES PAYÉ POUR ENVOYER DES MAILS ET T'ES PAS FOUTU DE FAIRE MOINS DE 15 PUTAIN DE FAUTES PAR PHRASE. Même le smic c'est trop pour ce genre de guss. A la rigueur tu lui files 5 euros par email et puis voilà. Mais tu retires un euro par faute. Histoire de rétablir un minimum de justice sociale.

Aujourd'hui, on privilégie la recherche du responsable d'un problème avant sa résolution. Normal. Histoire de le dénoncer, et de faire pleuvoir sur son crâne, le saint courroux de ceux qui n'en branlent pas une.

Voilà, je me suis insurgé. Putain, ça fait du bien. Faut dire que j'étais à 2 doigts de monter emplafonner l'autre demeuré, avec ses formulaires, ses statistiques, et ses remarques à la con sur “Jean-Bernard qui va pousser la gueulante si on ne lui dit pas qui c'est qu'a cassé les imprimantes”.

Pour la légende, hier, j'ai passé 2 heures a expliquer à un ingénieur comment envoyer un fichier zip chiffré via un repository sécurisé. On dirait presque que je fais des trucs scientifiques, mais c'était juste du glisser déposer dans un dossier. Et c'était visiblement hors de portée de la compréhension de ce brave homme.

Pour conclure, cette célèbre maxime de Jamey Jasta, chanteur de hatebreed “DESTROY EVERYTHING”.

17 Best Restaurants in Ho Chi Minh

Posted at h in Vietnam by The Travel Ninjas

The best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh will amaze you with bold flavors, fresh ingredients, perfect balance – and super cheap prices. We lived in Ho Chi Minh for several months and ate out almost every meal.

There are literally thousands of Ho Chi Minh restaurants worthy to visit. Keeping this list short enough to be useful was really tough. We included some better-known places, but we tired to focus on hidden gems that most tourists never visit.

Of course, it’s really subjective, but here are our picks for the best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh.

Bahn Canh Ghe is one of the best-kept secrets of Vietnamese cuisine. It was love at first sight with this gorgeous soup, and it tastes even better than it looks. If you enjoy crab, this is your soup. And this restaurant serves up the best bowl in Ho Chi Minh.

Their secret is home-made noodles, produced daily in the restaurant.

Price: 65,000VND ($2.75USD)

484 Nguyen Tri Phoung St, P 9, Q 10, Ho Chi Minh

Pho Le  

Pho is the classic Vietnamese dish. It mixes savory broth, delicate rice noodles, meat, and piles of fresh herbs. Honestly, you can find excellent bowls on every street, but the best Pho restaurant in Ho Chi Minh is a hotly debated topic.

After sampling countless worthy contenders, Pho Le is our favorite. Their broth is special. Other places make a delicious bowl, but seem to take shortcuts.

Pho Le’s broth is made in the traditional way. It takes hours of painstaking preparation, and we can taste the difference. Pho Le also offers the widest variety of meat to add to your soup.

Prices at Pho Le are a bit more expensive than other places, but worth every penny.

Price: 75,000VND ($3.25USD)

2 Locations run by same family

305 Vo Van Tam St, P 5, Q 3, Ho Chi Minh

415 Nguyen Trai St, P 7, Q 5, Ho Chi Minh

Pho 2000 

We add Pho 2000 more for its fame than for its food. Pho 2000 is the most famous restaurant in Ho Chi Minh, because President Bill Clinton ate there. The moment is commemorated on the wall and at the table where he sat. This bit of history is the main draw.

The Pho here is decent, but not great. Pho 2000 is conveniently located in the main tourist area. Unlike like many Pho restaurants, they have a good selection of other dishes too.

Price: 30,000-75000VND ($1.5-3.25USD)

3 Phan Chu Trinh St, P Bến Thành, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Bun Bo Gahn 

This restaurant serves up our favorite bowl of Bun Bo Hue (Vietnam’s second most famous dish). Like Pho, Bun Bo Hue has a savory beef broth with citrus notes from the lemongrass. Unlike Pho, the noodles are thicker and denser.

Bun Bo Hue is typically a bit spicier, but not by much. The soup at Bun Bo Gahn is delicious and authentic. The desserts called Che are also very good here.

The restaurant has a lovely setting and great location. Bun Bo Gahn is a few blocks from the main pedestrian street, Nguyen Hue.

Price: 15,000 – 48,000VND ($0.75-2.25USD)

88 Ho Tung Mau St, P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Quan Bui 

Quan Bui is one of the prettiest restaurants in Ho Chi Minh. The food is awesome and authentic too, but the beautiful décor and atmosphere is what really brings us back.

The walls, furniture, and even menus are decorated with iconic images of Vietnam and it’s people. And the food is fantastic as well.

Our favorites are the steamed Seabass and the sautéed Squid. Prices are very reasonable for such a classy spot with a range of quality dishes.

Price: 59,000-99,000VND ($2.5-4.5USD)

3 Locations

17A Ngo Van Nam St, P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

8 Nguyen Van Nguyen St, P Tân Định, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

39 Ly Tu Trong St P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Banh Mi Huynh Hoa 

A Banh Mi is a Vietnamese sandwich that looks deceptively simple. A Banh Mi is a flavor bomb that changed the way we think about sandwiches. They combine perfect baguettes with savory pork, fresh herbs, and magical, secret sauces.

There are Banh Mi stalls all over Ho Chi Minh, but “Banh Mi Huynh Hoa” is the clear champion. Even late at night, there’s always a long line of locals.

This is even more impressive because the prices here are double what a normal Banh Mi costs. These locals are not rich folks.

If they’re willing to pay double for these, they must be worth it. And in our opinion, they’re a bargain.

Price: 30,000VND ($1.25USD)

26 Le Thi Rieng, P Ben Thanh, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Quan Com Me Kong 

This is the best restaurant in Ho Chi Minh for a big hunk of grilled pork. It’s totally delicious and surprisingly cheap. We were randomly walking around District 1 when we found this hidden gem.

The fantastic smell is what drew us here. We followed our noses and discovered this place packed with nearby office workers.

As reflected in our list, noodle soups are huge in Vietnamese cuisine. They are wonderful, but sometimes you just want a slab of smoky pork. They serve them up here with a pile of fresh rice for a hearty, filling meal at an incredible price.

Price: 60,000VND ($2.5USD)

136 Suong Nuyet Anh St. P Ben Thanh, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Bahn Duc Nong Ba Gia 

You’ve probably never heard of Banh Duc Nong, but this soup is as tasty as it is unique. The combo of pork and wild mushrooms gives it a blend of savory and earthy flavors, with hints of sweet and salty in just the right balance.

Banh Duc Nong also combines a variety of textures like creamy and crunchy. It’s a real treat that most visitors never get a chance to try.

The best (and cheapest) restaurant in Ho Chi Minh for this dish is Banh Duc Nong Ba Gia.

Price: 15,000VND ($0.65USD)

76 Cuu Long St. P15, Q10, Ho Chi Minh

5KU Station 

This is one of the best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh for groups. It’s a grill-your-own meat type of place. Pick a few proteins and few veggies. Then everyone grills and shares.

The fun, festive atmosphere make 5ku wildly popular with locals and visitors. And all the grilling meats create fantastic aromas.

Beef, chicken, and pork are available, but our favorites are the variety of snails, seafood, and frogs.

Price: 80,000-150,000VND ($3.5-6.5USD)

27 Lê Thánh Tôn St. P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

The Secret Garden 

Finding a hidden, back-alley restaurant is an experience every Ho Chi Minh visitor should have. Many of the best restaurants in Ho Chi Minh are off the main roads. And the Secret Garden is one of our favorites.

It’s not that difficult to find, but you have to venture down a couple alleys, make a few turns, and climb several flights of stairs to get here.

When you finally arrive, the rooftop garden terrace seems like an oasis of calm in the chaotic city.

The menu is a collection of delicious “home-style” Vietnamese dishes. For detailed directions, check our full review of Secret Garden.

Price: 50,000-80,000VND ($2.25-3.5USD)

158 Pasteur St. P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Propaganda 

Propaganda is one of the coolest restaurants in Ho Chi Minh. The art work is beautiful, colorful, and highly symbolic of the new culture of this city.

The murals are the most outstanding features, covering several large walls. The same images decorate the upholstery and other knick knacks. All this art was created by local artists.

The food is what they call “twisted Vietnamese cuisine.” The fare is mostly classic Vietnamese dishes with new looks and new flavors. There’s an a la carte menu, but we prefer the “set lunches” and “discovery menus.”

These are a bit pricey for Ho Chi Minh city, but we found them worth every penny.

Price: 190,000-230,000VND ($8.33-10USD) for set lunches 480,000-550,000VND ($21-24USD) for “discovery menus,” wine included

21 Han Thuyen St. P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Muoi Tieu Chanh

Muoi Tieu Chanh has some of the most delicious crab in the city. It’s the kind of place where you get to pick your own crabs fresh. There are many great seafood places around Ho Chi Minh, but this is one of our favorites.

It’s only visited by locals, and it has a beautiful, wooden interior designed to look like ship. And since few tourists ever visit, the prices are fair for fresh seafood of this caliber.

Price: 100,000-200,000VND ($4.5-9USD)

Chim Cut Chien Bo 

Chim Cut Chien Bo is quail fried in butter. We never liked quail before we tried this dish, but now we eat it all the time. It’s crispy and flavorful, without being overly greasy.

Order some gizzards on the side (also fried in butter), and wash it down with some Nuoc Mia (fresh sugarcane juice).

Price: 25,000VND ($1USD)

54 Dong Nai St. P 15, Q 10, Ho Chi Minh

Ut Dieu 

Ut Dieu is classy little restaurant set back in an alley. The décor is a lovely mix of classic Vietnamese style and modern influences. The best time to visit is lunch.

They have a big set menu lunch for only a couple bucks. The specific offerings change daily, but we’ve always been happy here.

Price: 49,000VND ($2.25)

44C Bui Thi Xuan St. P Ben Thanh, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Chi Hoa 

Chi Hoa prides itself on serving up dishes that remind you of granny’s cooking – if you had a Vietnamese granny that is.

Dishes range from classic spring rolls to things that you’ve never tried. For the more adventurous eater, we recommend the fermented pork belly with rice.

Price: 30,000-100,000VND ($1.25-4.5USD)

31A Le Thanh Ton St. P Ben Nghe, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Xoi Ga Number One

Xoi Ga is sticky rice with shredded chicken. Xoi Ga Number one is the best and most convenient place to try this Vietnamese classic. The restaurant is located only a few blocks from Ben Thanh Market, but few tourists ever eat here.

Each serving of “chicken rice” is rather small so you’ll need a couple helpings to fill up. Better yet, sample some other dishes from the large menu too.

Price: 15,000-35,000VND ($0.65-1.5)

21 Nguyen Trung Truc St. P Ben Thanh, Q 1, Ho Chi Minh

Bo Cap Lua 

If you really want to push your culinary limits, try Bo Cap Lau. They specialize in creepy cuisine like scorpion, tarantulas, lizards, and worms as big as your thumb.

You can read about our night of adventure eating here. We wouldn’t call this restaurant delicious, but it is extraordinary and makes for lots of fun travel memories.

Price: 50,000-85,000VND ($2.25-3.75USD)

17B 11th St. P 11, Q Go Vap, Ho Chi Minh
