1. Restaurant Ngon (Quan An Ngon in Vietnamese)
This restaurant is located in one of the best locations in Ho Chi Minh city: 160 Pasteur, District 1, right next to the Reunification Palace. But it is above all its wealth of Vietnamese recipes and original ways of presenting dishes that attract many customers: fresh spring rolls, noodles from Hue, crabs with black peppers…
2. The Deck Saigon restaurant
38 Nguyen U Di Street, Thao Dien, An Phu, Ward 2.
Located on the riverside of Saigon, a 15-minute walk from the city center, this restaurant is a favorite meeting place, offering a beautiful view, both Western and Asian menus (including French and Vietnamese), with a good quality of service.
3. Lemongrass

15-17 Dong Khoi Street, District 1
