22. Hai San Binh Ba
$$$ | |This casual seafood restaurant is popular with locals but sees few tourists, so you may have trouble finding someone that speaks English. Once the young and enthusiastic staff help break the language barrier, you'll be rewarded with mountains of fresh and delicious seafood, which comes grilled, steamed, or fried.

23. Hong Phat
$$ | |The food at this cheap local joint is tasty, and though the interior is basic, the restaurant is air-conditioned and the menu is in Vietnamese, English, and Chinese, so ordering is relatively simple. Mekong Delta specialties include lau (hotpot), ca kho (caramelized fish), and suon xao chua ngot (sweet-and-sour pork riblets) as well as bo luc lac (shaking beef—because it dances around the pan while being cooked) and chao tom chien (prawn paste on sugar cane sticks).

24. Hu Tieu Tuyet Ngan
$ | |Usually packed with locals, this big eating hall with metal tables and plastic stools is the best place in town to order hu tieu My Tho, a noodle soup that's the specialty of My Tho. The staff don't speak much English but the food more than makes up for any challenges with ordering. The menu, printed on the walls, is simple: hu tieu (rice-noodle soup), banh canh (rice-and-tapioca noodle soup), bot nui (rice-macaroni soup), and hoan thanh (pork wonton soup). There are different prices for hu tieu: thit (pork), xuong (pork knuckle), muc tuoi (fresh squid) and tom tuoi (fresh shrimp).

25. Huong Viet
$$ | |Popular with locals, this restaurant is designed to look like a bamboo village hut, and is a bit of a point-and-order eating adventure for visitors—the menu has no English, only a few photos on each page that vaguely correspond to the dishes listed below. The menu offers seafood, salad, beef, chicken, sparrow (chim se), and hotpot. Luckily the prices are so low it doesn't really matter if you mis-order a few dishes.

26. Lien Phat
$$ | |Western tourists will find an English menu (with some very unusual translations) at this basic Vietnamese restaurant, where a range of standard dishes includes the local specialty, lau mam (fermented fish hotpot). A big plus is the air-conditioned room, in a town where many places are fan-cooled only. The style is basic, with check table cloths and wooden dining settings inside and plain marble-topped tables on the terrace.

On display within the house is beautiful carved furniture, some with mother-of-pearl inlays, ceramic pieces, and other antiques. The house, restored in 2002 with a donation from the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), who also sent over an architect, has four homestay rooms.

30. Nam Bo Restaurant
$$$ | |Part of the highly acclaimed Nam Bo Boutique Hotel, this all-day café-restaurant serves a variety of traditional Mekong specialties and European staples in a casual French bistro--style setting. For local fare, try the lau (a hotpot served with rice noodles, lean pork, seafood, and a pile of vegetables) or, if you're feeling adventurous, the snake set (menu de serpent in French). The stylish, artsy interior is complemented by a superb riverfront setting and free Wi-Fi, making it a pleasant spot for a coffee break. Reservations are recommended at peak times, as large tour groups can arrive en masse.

33. Ninh Kieu Night Market
$ | |There are two parts to the night market, one section selling clothes and tourist items and the other serving food from a variety of mobile stalls, with vendors who are well versed in the point-and-nod style of ordering. Most of the food can be munched while strolling and is more of a snack than a meal, but what's on offer can change from day to day, so it's best to just go and see what is available. Food stalls start appearing at around 6 pm each day.

34. Noname BBQ
$$ | |Fresh seafood, ribs, chicken, and vegetables are barbecued on sidewalk grills made from 44-gallon drums at this barbecue joint, where your food is selected from the blue canoe out front. The simple outdoor setting is even enjoyable in inclement weather, thanks to a canvas cover. Service can be chaotic but that's part of the fun. Noname also offers motorbike rental and a laundry service.

35. Oasis Bar
$$ | |A plain and simple bar serving a range of drinks, including super cold beers, Oasis lives up to its name for the wealth of free travel information English owner Andy provides. (There is also a small travel agency inside the bar.) Oasis is the only place in town serving Western food, starting with breakfast, including the full English hot breakfast, and continuing through the day with bar-style meals such as chili con carne, baguettes, and Thai green chicken curry.

36. Phuong Hoang Restaurant
$$$ | |An eccentric tourist restaurant catering to domestic travelers, Phuong Hoang can be quite the experience, whether you choose to dine in a thatched hut, the fake floating restaurant, or the dining area that's in a giant cement reproduction of a helicopter cabin (minus rotor and skids). The menu offers a range of traditional Vietnamese dishes and a host of local specialties, such as bat, snake, and field mouse. The staff has limited English, but the restaurant does have one English menu, which makes things easier. An abandoned-looking children's playground fronts the complex, but keep walking until you see the huts.

- Vietnamese dishes
- Local specialties such as bat and field mouse
-
37. Phuong Nam
$$ | |A basic riverfront restaurant targeted firmly at the tourist trade, Phuong Nam does a range of Vietnamese favorites and some of the Mekong Delta's more exotic specialties, such as field mouse, snake, and crocodile. The interior is basic, with check tablecloths and chunky wooden furniture, and the fan-cooled restaurant is open to the street. If you don't fancy the adventurous options, there are also vegetarian, seafood, pork, and chicken dishes.
48 Hai Ba Trung, Can Tho, Can Tho, Vietnam096-343--9797-cell phoneKnown For

- Challenging dishes
- Park views

38. Phuong Thuy
$$$ | |A plain and simple restaurant, associated with the Cuu Long Hotel across the road (which issues guests with tickets to the breakfast buffet), the riverside Phuong Thuy has a range of standard Vietnamese dishes, including hotpot, and a few Western choices. The main drawcards here are the English subtitles on the menu and the great river views, though service can be a bit slow. The staff don't mind if you grab a riverside seat for a few quiet drinks rather than ordering a meal.
1 Phan Boi Chau, Vinh Long, Vinh Long, Vietnam0270-382--3765Known For
- River views
- Simple Vietnamese fare
- Slow service
-
39. Quan Mekong
$$ | |Alongside a French colonial villa once home to a Nguyen Dynasty official, Mekong serves up fresh and tasty Vietnamese dishes, has an English menu, and serves cheap cold beers. The location could be described as a courtyard if it didn't look so much like a parking lot, and the metal tables and chairs are rather basic, but the striped awnings and red tablecloths do give the place a certain touch of sophistication. The menu includes southern Vietnamese staples such as seafood, eel, quail, and frog, but there are plenty of less exotic options as well.

40. Quan Pho 91
$ | |Locals will tell you that this is the best pho in town. There's no English menu, but they really only serve one thing (beef noodle soup), so there shouldn't be too many mishaps. Unlike many other pho restaurants in Vietnam, this joint serves the national dish all day long.
