The place is nothing special, the area around very noisy, staff not really attentive and parking their motorbikes and bycicles directly in the already small location. They tell you that beer is sold out if you want to order (even if this is never happening...in Vietnam as if you are customer oriented you can get replenishment everywhere around) and the restroom handwash is not working (if you mention it they don't care) . Food quality and location wise there are definitely much better places in HCMC.More

I enjoyed my visit, food was good and ambience was pleasant. Portions a bit small for the price though. One of the best restaurants on the walking street. Go elsewhere if you want an authentic local experience.

The long wait was to be expected, but wasn't justified by the poor quality of the food. We ordered a range of dishes, including of course the bun cha, but we won't be able to recommend any of them. The bun cha consisted of a...few measly bits of grilled pork, some of which looked like a dog has gone through them - and I'm not sure whether they should be swimming in the broth? Noodles looked like they've been sitting around for hours, both the beef in betel leaves and the spring rolls were extremely greasy. And please do avoid the grilled fermented pork as the size of the serve was just laughable. I'm really annoyed that I allowed us to fall for this tourist trap.More

My wife and I walked here from our hotel in district 1. Pretty easy walk and definitely worth the trip. Having not had Bun Cha it was really nice to have a card provided with the chopsticks telling us how to mix everything together. The...herbs were incredibly tasty and the pork was excellent. We ordered two beers, two waters and two Bun Cha (one pork and one vegetarian). Total was $250000. That’s about $10 in USD. Wow. We highly recommend trying to find this restaurant if you are in HCMC. And, they definitely appear to cater to expats. Menus were in English and there were three tables of expats eating lunch (including us) out of the four tables in the restaurant.More

Tiny portion for a hefty price, don’t fall into the tourist trap. They don’t take credit cards. You can find better places in HCMc.

Was quite quiet when I arrived which was a minor worry but needless. Food arrived promptly, it’s great value and super tasty. Worried that the pork would be tough- nope super tender and could easily have had more! Would throughly recommend.

Closed for awhile, but now back open. Both the hours and the menu are shortened as they get their feet back on the ground, but the quality is still top notch. One of my picky Vietnamese friends said it's still just as good as in...Hanoi.More

When you visit this place, you must order it. Place is rather small, so sometimes you will need to wait, but it worth it. Enjoy

Opening hours are incorrect in Tripadvisor, open from noon to 3pm and from 5.30pm until 8pm. Service is friendly and they speal good english. Worth the wait, as there was a line outside. Food was excellent, enjoy the bun cha and add few sides. Here...I will come again!More
