The food was good and we got some complementary fresh breads and butter. The service was excellent. The waiter was very friendly. The place is a little posh and we felt like a king and queen :-) The prices are a little expensive but you get something in return. We payed 700.000 dong for two main menu's and we both... More

This used to be the best place with the most buzz. the room is beautiful, the music is good, but far far too too loud. Food looks alright on the menu, but the execution and sauce is not genuine. Clearly they buy their seasonings in packages. Steaks can be just alright, but the chefs can't handle them, and the staff... More

This "up nose" doesn't deliver what you pay for. The staff are not always friendly and the food is average. More

Price to high for a cheap quality drink. The first Friday of the month there is a party where you can find 60 years old man dancing with schoolgirls... Maybe should be funny maybe not. Sometimes live pub, quality of music is so so, quality of people is too low (for the reason mentioned before). I had been stopped many... More

Dear Marco, Thank you for your review of the Press Club but I must tell you that the Press Club is a far cry from what you have portrait it to be. We have a solid and good reputation for our food and beverage services over the 15 years and you have obviously not had the chance to enjoy a... More

I ave been going to the Press Club for years, love the staff, who always, always remember my name, meet and greet me, engage in friendly chats, Thursdays during Happy Hour is best and for the super lunch promotions with a pizza to die for. Great and fancy dinner settings and a Swiss Executive Master Chef second to none, hence... More

Extremely up-market venue reminiscent of a "Raj Gentleman's Club", providing very high quality food and service in superb surroundings. Everything about the place reeks of splendour and has prices to match. The menu and wine lists are extensive and provide for almost every taste. Certainly a must experience for visitors seeking not only a change in diet, but a simply... More

A bit of a challenge to find, but well worth it if you are wanting something 'familiar' in Hanoi. Every night seems to be different - Thursday was our favourite. Live band, OK drinks menu, not too expensive. A good mix of locals and visitors. More

Great service, good ambience, the food is fine/good. Quite expensive. On the whole I left disappointed. Slightly with myself for having taken the easy, unimaginative option. I could have stayed in Australia. For the price- not vey inspiring. More
