1. 4P's Pizza
$$ | District 1 |The centerpiece of this stylish, immensely popular Japanese-owned restaurant is not a sushi bar but a brick oven, and the focus here is Japanese-Italian fusion, targeted at the Vietnamese palate but equally loved by out-of-towners. You can opt for classic creations such as prosciutto margarita or something a little more experimental, like flower pizza (with edible blooms such as pumpkin, leek, and daylily), teriyaki chicken with seaweed or salmon miso cream. Italian-style appetizers and pasta dishes are also available, as is a cheese platter featuring handmade cheeses from the 4Ps' cheese factory near Dalat. Customers who can't get a seat will stand by the bar just for a slice of the mouthwatering pizza. Reservations should be made days in advance—yes, it's that popular. This restaurant is the original, with a growing number of locations in some of Vietnam's biggest cities.
8/15 Le Thanh Ton, Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam028-3622--0500Known For

2. Bancong
$$ | Hoan Kiem District |Bancong means "balcony" in Vietnamese (from the French balcon), and this multistory 1940s art deco mansion has plenty of them. The outdoor spaces overflow with flowers and pot plants, and make good spots to watch scenes of the Old Quarter unfold below. The menu is rather muddled, but the Vietnamese dishes, from bun cha to bun bo nam bo, are reliably good. So is the ca phe cot dua (iced coconut coffee), a Hanoi specialty.
2 Dinh Liet, Hanoi, Ha Noi, VietnamKnown For
- Iced coconut coffee
- Historic architecture
- Good bun cha
-
3. Bar200
$$ | Con Son |More of a café than a bar, this tiny place makes fantastic sandwiches, salads, and pizzas, making their own pizza dough, sandwich bread, and burger buns in house. The interior is simple, yet welcoming, with wooden blinds, rattan tables and chairs, and photos and propaganda art on the walls. The tiny veranda is a great spot from which to watch Con Son daily life. In high season, it's worth calling first to make sure you get a table.
Khu 6, Nguyen Van Linh, Con Dao Islands, Ba Ria-Vung Tau, Vietnam097-830--3025Known For
- Homemade bread
- Italian coffee
- Friendly staff

4. Capture Vietnam
$$ | |Quite possibly serving the best Western food in all of Vietnam, this café captures the hearts of all who eat here. There is nothing on the menu that disappoints, but the complete winners are the veggie lasagna, meatball subs, and carrot cake. Opened by an American, vegetarian chef, Capture even has hard-to-find items like bagels and ginger beer. They are located right next to the Easy Tiger.
Son Trach, Phong Nha, Quang Binh, Vietnam0164-515–3869Known For
- Good vegetarian options
- Wood-fired pizzas
- Perfect service
-
5. Cousins
$$ | Tay Ho District |The outdoor area of this French-influenced venue is an ideal place for some very romantic dining and expat gatherings. The interior is equally convivial with stripped pine tables and wooden furniture. The food is a mixed bag of European dishes prepared and served with flare. They've also opened two more locations at 58 Dao Tan and 19 Doan Nhu Hai.
15 Ngo 45 To Ngoc Van, Hanoi, Ha Noi, Vietnam083-867--0098-cell phoneKnown For
- Imported pork belly

6. Hanoi Social Club
$$ | Hoan Kiem District |The main draw here is the convivial, bohemian atmosphere. Housed in a stunning 1920s French-colonial villa in a quiet part of the Old Quarter, the café is rustic and warm, with original tiles, wooden furnishings, and high ceilings. The menu has undergone quite an improvement in recent years, with fabulous breakfast and brunch options (the laksa is particularly good). An adequate list of wine and beers and regular music and art events make the café a decent bet in the evenings, too.
6 Hoi Vu St., Hanoi, Ha Noi, Vietnam024-3938–2117Known For
- Laksa
- Hip decor
- Live shows
-
7. Happy Heart Cafe
$$ | |There’s nothing fancy about this charity-run diner, just good Western food at cheap prices and heartwarming service. Repurposed from an English center, this café employs minority and deaf workers, and is a favorite among expats and visitors. Most come for the cause, but return for the vegetarian chili, English breakfast, or burgers and pizzas.
57 Ngo Thi Sy, Danang, Da Nang, Vietnam2036-388--8384Known For
- Helping the deaf community
- Good breakfasts
- Vegetarian chili

8. Hum Lounge and Restaurant
$$ | District 1 |Classy surroundings, attentive staff, and amazing cocktails are good reasons to come here, but it's the mouthwatering pan-Asian food that's the highlight, regularly winning over meat lovers who have reluctantly accompanied their vegetarian partners and friends. The menu is full of health-conscious options, and the food is as visually appealing as it is delicious. Unlike traditional vegetarian places in Vietnam, Hum uses garlic and onion and serves alcohol.
2 Thi Sach, Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam028-3823–8920Known For
- Stylish decor
- Cocktails (try the cucumber ginger martini)
- Vegetarian food
-
9. Joe's Cafe
$$ | |A staple in Mui Ne for live music and great food, Joe's Cafe's cavernous property is located right on the seashore in the heart of the strip. Filled with greenery and dappled sunlight, Joe's is open from early morning until late at night, so whether you're after a sea-view breakfast or dinner and a live music show, Joe's is a great place to be.
86 Nguyen Dinh Chieu, Binh Thuan, Vietnam62-384–7177Known For
- Live music nightly
- Hearty Western dinners
- Serene ocean view
-
10. Koto Villa
$$ | Tay Ho District |Now gracing a French-style villa in West Lake (the restaurant used to be next to the Temple of Literature), this place can get packed with tour groups. The flavors here—from baked fish in banana leaf to bamboo beef—are bold and brilliant, and the menu is a mix of creative dishes. The fact that Koto (an acronym for "know one, teach one") is a charity restaurant that benefits street youth, is just the icing on the lemon cheesecake.
Alley 35 Dang Thai Mai, Hanoi, Ha Noi, Vietnam084-438--3999Known For
- Charity restaurant benefiting kids
- Tourist favorite
- Creative and delicious cuisine
-
11. Kushiyaki Banjiro
$$ | |Don't be shocked when you walk through the door of Kushiyaki Banjiro to find the kimono-clad staff yelling in Japanese; it's the way they do it in Japan. Try the omakase set, a plate piled high with sashimi that includes blue lobster, tuna, and salmon, or authentic chicken or beef yakitori. If the lively atmosphere is too much, reserve a private tatami room in advance.
23 Nguyen Chi Thanh, Thach Thang, Danang, Da Nang, Vietnam0236-384--9880Known For
- Sake brewed in Hue and served in carafes
- Sushi
- Business clientele

12. L'Usine
$$ | District 1 |Industrial chic meets art house tucked away in a colonial villa at this well-loved café. The food is reliably good, offering a range of contemporary café fusion fare including salads, sandwiches, cold cut platters, and Western favorites. Beautifully plated Vietnamese dishes include a very tasty caramelized pork and herb number and a solid broken rice with grilled pork. There is a second, larger restaurant with a bright upstairs retail space at 19 Le Thanh Ton.

13. Les Jardins De La Carambole
$$ | |Neighboring the historic Imperial City, this French-Vietnamese restaurant is fashioned after a colonial villa with green shutters, arched doorways, tile floors, antiques dating back to 1915, and artwork depicting pastoral scenes. Slightly pricey by local standards, the enormous menu features green mango salad, fresh spring rolls, beef in banana leaves, and grilled sea bass with a Mediterranean sauce, as well as sandwiches, pasta, and pizza. The goat cheese and prosciutto platter is superb, as is the roasted chicken in a white wine sauce. The Chinese emblem embroidered on staff uniforms and napkins is a wish for prosperity and longevity. The restaurant has a second location renowned for its French-Vietnamese menu in the backpackers' district at 18 Vo Thi Sau Street.
32 Dang Tran Con St., Hue, Thua Thien-Hue, Vietnam0234-354–8815Known For
- Chic colonial architecture
- Enormous menu
- Close to Imperial City
-
14. Little Menu
$$ | |On the main thoroughfare into the Old Town, this is an unfussy but undoubtedly lovely 19th-century family home, where local artwork hangs from crumbling yellow walls and seating takes second place to a huge open kitchen. The street-facing patio is the place to sit here, with great views across to an ornate community temple.

16. Ma Xo
$$ | |Little sister to Hanoi institution The Hanoi Social Club, Ma Xo is the place to go for coffee, cocktails, and quick bites. The menu features home brunch comforts and innovative creations, such as fresh spring rolls with duck, a modern take on the neighborhood's favorite dish. A pretty lakeside location only enhances the experience.

- Boho vibes
- Lake views
-
17. Maison de Tet Decor
$$ | Tay Ho District |This beautiful bohemian villa serves up excellent food and an impressive farm-to-table ethos. They own two farms, one in Sapa and one in Soc Son, so all produce is carefully grown and selected. Vegetarian options abound, from goat cheese omelettes to vegan burgers, and the menu changes regularly to stay seasonal. Try one of their specialty coffee blends or a chai tea charger as you take in the views of the park opposite.

$$ | Hoan Kiem District |At this authentic Indian restaurant, the owners import herbs and spices directly from India. Flatbreads like paratha and naan are cooked in a genuine clay tandoor oven, and the impressive cone-shape dosa pancake stands 2 feet tall. The kebabs are grilled to perfection with spices and lime.
46 Tho Nhuom, Hanoi, Ha Noi, Vietnam024-3935–2400Known For
- Northern and southern cuisine
- Many vegetarian dishes
- Excellent kebabs

19. Pho Xua
$$ | |This is a great find in Ca Mau, with nostalgic style (the name translates as "ancient street"), including quaint little wooden pavilions, a courtyard bonsai garden, and fish ponds. Serving Chinese-influenced dishes as well as Vietnamese cuisine, Pho Xua has a menu that contains English subtitles, although not much English is spoken by the staff. With its proximity to the ocean, it's no wonder that seafood is the house specialty, but there's also a range of chicken, beef, buffalo, and pork dishes.
239 Phan Ngoc Hien, Ca Mau, Ca Mau, Vietnam0290-367–7777-cell phoneKnown For
- Seafood
- Wooden pavilions
- Chinese-influenced dishes

20. Pit Stop Food Court
$$ | |True to its motto of “Eat, drink, relax, be happy”, Pit Stop Food Court is shaping up to be “the” place to eat and hang out in Mui Ne. Order anything from seafood hot pot and lobster grilled with cheese to Hungarian goulash and fish tacos and find a seat under the swaying palms with sweeping views of the water. The open-air space is family-friendly during the day while the on-site Nirvana Beach Club cranks up the tunes at night.
