1. Le Gecko
$$$ | |Like Sapa itself, Le Gecko bears noticeable French influence with a menu that features a host of bistro classics. There's a comfortable bar area that is popular in the evenings, while the outside terrace is a great spot for people-watching. There's nothing particularly fussy about either the restaurant or the home-style cuisine, so don't expect fancy sauces of Parisian haughtiness.

- Cozy atmosphere
- Rich beef bourguignon
- Casual fare
-
2. Maison de Sapa
$$$ | |The sister restaurant of the Maison de Tet in Hanoi, Maison de Sapa is the place to relax and unwind for a few hours and enjoy some delicious food and drinks. Specializing in fresh, farm-to-table ingredients, the menu is always changing to reflect the finest seasonal options. The bohemian decor is all made in-house and there are plans to create natural herbal baths upstairs, as well as host live-music events.

- Bohemian decor
- Great coffee blends
- Hiring and training local staff

3. Yen Ninh Vegetarian Restaurant
$$ | |With meat as the staple fare of the Northwest, it comes as some surprise to find that Dien Bien Phu's top restaurant is a wholly vegetarian affair—a delicious one at that. The owner is an English tutor, which ensures that service is much less spotty than it tends to be elsewhere in the more remote regions of Vietnam. Despite Dien Bien's Phu's mythical status in the country's history, there's nothing revolutionary about the food here, but it is tasty, including vegetarian spring rolls.

- Fresh creations

4. Cinnamon Restaurant
$$ | |This cozy restaurant is at the bottom of the Legend Hotel. The chandeliers and bamboo curtains add to the beauty of the rustic interior. There are set lunches and dinners so that groups can eat family-style, which makes this a tour group favorite. However, it's not a bad spot for a date. Upstairs you can see 10 kinds of rice wine on display, all fermented with local fruit; nothing starts the night like a glass.
024 Dong Loi, Sapa, Lao Cai, Vietnam098-388–9798Known For
- Local salmon
- Pork
- Hot rice wine

5. Cong Fu Restaurant
$$ | |Off the main road, about 200 yards from entrance to market, this restaurant, attached to a hotel of the same name, does a brisk business with lunching tourists. It serves very basic, but extremely tasty Vietnamese fare, such as pho and a variety of noodle, meat, and chicken dishes. Service can be a little erratic, and simple orders like a cold beer sometimes take awhile to arrive.
152 Ngoc Uyen St., Bac Ha, Lao Cai, Vietnam097-741--5929Known For
- Cold beer
- Pho
- Affordability

6. Delta Italian Restaurant
$$$ | |Tourists gather at this restaurant near the market for the large portions of pasta and pizzas cooked in a genuine Italian pizza oven by the amiable owner-chef, Mr. Tung, who spent six months studying in Milan before opening the restaurant. Exquisite crepes satisfy a lighter appetite, and there's an extensive international wine list. During peak season, from around October through mid-December, it's best to make reservations for weekend dining.
31 Cau May St., Sapa, Lao Cai, Vietnam096-669--6089Known For
- Authentic Italian fare
- Rustic interior
- Stone pizza oven
-
7. Hoang Yen Restaurant
$$ | |True, there's not much in the way of competition, but this is the best dining venue in Bac Ha. The menu will be familiar to students of the region's culinary landscape, with a solid selection of Vietnamese staple noodle and rice dishes along with lots of grilled, fried, and boiled meat.

9. Viet Emotion
$$ | |Like most of the restaurants in Sapa, Viet Emotion has a typical Western and Vietnamese blended menu, but they go out of their way to make the building bright and colorful. If you’re hungry, try the Hunter’s Meal, which is sticky rice and pork marinated in a bamboo pipe. They also have a second (smokier) location at 17 Xuan Vien.
027 Cau May, Sapa, Lao Cai, Vietnam0214-387–2669Known For
- Sticky rice and pork
- Brightly colored lanterns
- MSG-free food
