Banh Cuon 17 Cha Ca Street, Ha Noi Banh Cuon – noodles with meat inside – 17 Cha Ca Street (I do not
know the name of this very local restaurant). The Banh Cuon was very delicious. Make sure you tell them you
want Banh Cuon it is on the menu board on the wall and is DONG5,000. If you don’t they will give you Banh
Cuon and tea and charge you 9,000 (This is on another board with an English explanation). We ordered Banh Cuon from the
father and it was delicious. His 4 daughters were not sure what to do when I stood up to pay and the father
was not around. They talked among themselves and finally one of them stated ‘DONG14,000.’ I pointed at the
sign gave them DONG10,000 and we were off sightseeing. I know the money is not material but it was fun to not pay
Foreigner prices!!! Muzzman 2004 JUL 24
Baguette and Chocolat 11 Cha Ca Street, Hoan Kiem District, Ha Noi The best chocolate
deserts and hot chocolate. Great on a cold day. Started by ex teachers who now use the restaurant to train the kids in
hospitality trades. Chardibinx 2004 DEC 19
Baquette and Chocolate 11 Cha Ca Street This
bakery is a training school. I recommend visiting for coffee and pastries. They do also serve meals here and
I would recommend going for lunch. We went for dinner and they were out of most of the food on the menu. Back
to the pastry and coffee, both were excellent. Also the interior, especially upstairs is wonderful. Try to
go! Muzzman 2004 JUL 24
Bar Red Mask 2D Ta Hien Street, Old Quarter, Ha Noi Very friendly staff, fine selection of
music, and a nice crowd gathers there to negotiate a pool table and darts. traveling_j 2004DEC14
Binh Dan (ordinary people's) corner of Bat Dan and Hang Ga, Old Quarter, Ha Noi My personal
favourite is a no-name 'binh dan' (ordinary people's) on the corner of Bat Dan and Hang Ga in the old quarter.
Looks awful, but fabulous food. Go up the narrow stairs at the back of the kitchen to a lovely little mezzanine balcony.
Rock-salt and chilli baked crabs are the best I've had in VietNam (and I've had a few). Thach 2004 DEC 09
Bobby Chin's 1 Ba Trieu Street, Ha Noi For VietNam it is expensive, but it is extremely tasty
chow with superb service, a wine list unheard of in VietNam, ambience and food that is heads and tails above the usual
fare found even in the major Vietnamese cities. Worth the splurge. traveling_j 2004DEC14
Brother’s Café 26 Nguyen Thai Hoc We went for the lunch buffet which is USD$5.50 per person.
The restaurant is beautiful in a wonderful courtyard. The food was also excellent. We would highly recommend
a leisurely lunch or dinner here. Muzzman 2004 JUL 24
Cafe des Artes, Le 11B Pho Ba Trieu Street, Old Quarter, Ha Noi Tel: +84-(0)-4-828-7720

Cha ca La Vong
Cha ca La Vong at 14 Cha Ca street also worth a try. Haripriya 2004 DEC 09
Cha Ca La Vong is really a very special one that I have once tasted and it is unforgettable. Try one time
when visiting Vietnam; do not miss these special dishes. Ms Laura Pham discovermekong 2004 DEC 09
This restaurant serves only one thing which is Cha Ca – whitefish fried table side in oil and accompanied by dill,
scallions, peanuts, cilantro, Chile sauce and vermicelli. This restaurant is an institution that has been run
by the same family for over 100 years. The cost is DONG60,000 per person. We did not like the sauce that the
fish is cooked in and thus can not recommend. However, you might want to give it a try as you might like it. Muzzman

Cha Cha Go to the bakery/cafe across the street from Cha Cha La Vong fish restaraunt, A hang
out for Travellers. The staff is really nice to, plus the food is good. The upstairs lounge has magazines, etc. for
Travellers to read. Lady Traveler 2004 JUN 11
Ha Noi Garden 36 Hang Manh, Ha Noi The grilled duck was excellent. The rest of the food
was very mediocre. All and all I would say this dinner was not worth the USD$20 cost. Muzzman 2004 JUL 24
Ha Noi Hot Plates 16 Hang Be Street, Ha Noi After all the Phoey try Ha Noi Hot Plates
on 16 Hang Be. Montyman 2004DEC14
You must also have a meal at Ha Noi Hot Plates at 16 Hang Be
Street for DONG25,000. Great value. Anon 2004 DEC 09
Highland Hoan Kiem Lake Good coffee and music Haripriya 2004 DEC 09
Highland Place 6th floor of a building opposite to the Highland by the lake. Even more
interesting. Haripriya 2004 DEC 09
Highway 4 5 Hang Tre Street, Hoam Kiem District, Old Quarter. It has three floors. The bar
is downstairs (I ate there also). Go upstairs - it's very cool with a 12 page menu. You can't go wrong here.
The place is very, very busy with locals. Pat kight 2004 DEC 09
Hoa Sua Restaurant 81 Nhyam Street, Ha Noi Same organisation as Baquette and Chocolate.
Great atmosphere at this restaurant. You can eat outside, downstairs inside or upstairs inside. We ate outside on a
wonder warm day and really enjoyed. If you want to eat indoors I would recommend upstairs which is very beautiful.
We had very delicious fresh spring rolls and Pho. We also had wonderful desserts – apple crisp with ice cream
and ice cream with pastry puffs and chocolate sauce. They also have great iced coffee. Muzzman 2004 JUL 24
Kangaroo Café Has ‘western size’ big meals. We found it difficult to get through after eating
smaller light meals often. Still, good food and offers western dishes if you’re feeling deprived. We booked our tours
here.
Lam Cafe Nguyen Huu Huan Street Also good (and very Vietnamese), try G7 and any other Trung
Nguyen cafe. Haripriya 2004 DEC 09
Little Ha Noi
Another good restaurant is "Little Ha Noi", not by the lake but the small and
quiet one in the old street area. I don't remember the name of that small street but you can go around Luong Ngoc Quyen,
Ta Hien or Ma May street to find it; or ask people and they'll show you. Good Vietnamese food there.

Nikko Hotel Lunch Buffet 84 Tran Nhan Tong USD$13.90 beer included. Very little Vietnamese
food but very cold draft Tiger beer and delicious sushi and sashimi! A very good value for delicious sushi
and sashimi. Muzzman 2004 JUL 24
Pho Bo Dac Biet 2 Ly Quoc Su It is also unforgettable! Ms Laura Pham discovermekong
2004 DEC 09
Pho Mai Anh If you want to try Pho - rice noodle, 'Pho Mai Anh' opposite to the Quan Com Pho at
29A Le Van Huu. Don't remember the exact address again, sorry. Haripriya 2004 DEC 09
Quan Com Pho 29 Le Van Huu Street, Ha Noi Really busy at lunchtime. Uzzz 2004 DEC 09
R+R Tavern 47 Lo Su Street, Ha Noi Met the wonderful couple who runs the place, made me feel at
home. I got myself really good tex-mex food (if you can imagine this in VietNam!) while listening to a killer rock and
roll band covering everything from Dire Straits to Pink Floyd. Some folks from the crowd even took the mike
and sang lead. Great time. traveling_j 2004DEC14
Sofitel Metropole Hotel Sunday Seafood Buffet 15 Ngo Quyen This was our last big splurge
before heading home. The cost is steep at USD$25 a person ++. However, if you like seafood and can
afford it go. I think you will agree that this is a serious bargain. The seafood is absolutely delicious.
Also the service is wonderful and they have wonderful live jazz music. Muzzman 2004 JUL 24
Tamarind Café 80 Ma May, Old Quarter, Ha Noi Home of Handspan Travel which used for 3 trips
and highly recommend. Tamarind Café – pretty expensive for what you get – priced in US Dollars (illegal) not
Dong. The food is very good so look at the menu before ordering and decide whether you willing to pay there
prices. Muzzman 2004 JUL 24 |
