My favourite place in Saigon

This is a must-go when in Vietnam. The place is cosy, the food is top-notch. We have had a delicious pho soup that I still think of. 10/10!

Good food

3 main dishes per day and a range of side dishes so the menu is not extensive but the quality is excellent. It’s a very clean and has a pleasant ambience. Located right in centre of district 1 in what was previously the backpacker area so it’s very handy for anyone staying round Bui Vien. Definitely worth a visit if you’re nearby.

Dear Tim,

We sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations during your recent visit to our small restaurant. We always strive to provide our customers with the best possible experience, and we regret that we fell short in this instance.

As we explained to you and your wife, the previous evening had been extremely busy, with many customers waiting for tables. In an effort to accommodate as many guests as possible, we made the decision to offer you a single table instead of the two you usually reserve. We understand that this may have caused you some inconvenience, and we apologize for any discomfort this may have caused.

As a small business navigating the challenges of the current economic climate, we are doing our best to balance the needs of our customers with the realities of operating a restaurant during these difficult times.

Naunau changed my life

The banh mi was revolutionary, tried all three. The pho was generational. The kombucha sucks and [censored]. Coconut ice cream means more to me than my kids. Love u naunau.

What an excellent find

Up a small side street, Naunau offers a small but effective menu. Well presented food, really tasty and cost effective. 203000 dong for two people including drinks.

Delicious food!

Really good, quick food that taste healing. Loved the tofu skin! Back in a little alley which was convenient when we stayed just across the street.

Lovely banh mi

They’ve got the banh mi down here. More options on the menu but the bread was top notch. Staff are great and cute ambience.

Great find and fully vegan

We ate the rice, pho, spring rolls and won tons and the food was brilliant. My partner is not vegan but said it was the second best pho he has had since being in Vietnam.

Vegan just off walking street.

Service was great no problems. The food was quite bland though and lacking taste. I will go back though to try something else. The menu was large with pictures and in English. I've been back on 3 further occasions and the food I've eaten is wonderful.

Updated from previous review on 2025-11-22

Pros: Service, Presentation, Big selection/ good menu choice

Went back for breakfast. I had a great banh mi that I would rate 5 stars. It was flavoursome and tasty. The bread was fresh warm and crunchy. Very good.

Hidden Alley Gem for Fresh & Flavorful Vegan Vietnamese 🇻🇳

Little shop tucked away in a back alley — super easy to miss but definitely worth finding. We had the lemon juice for drinks, which was basically lemon water (my favorite), simple and refreshing.

For food, we tried the vermicelli spring roll bowl and the vermicelli tofu and both were fresh, flavorful, and really satisfying. For appetizers, we had the fried tofu and the bánh mì sandwich — both so delicious!

Everything tasted homemade and clean, and the whole experience felt very cozy. Would definitely come back!

Alright

I m sorry I do not agree with the 5stars review, maybe we got the wrong items ?
I found it good but pretty average.
Also a bit pricey but it s my first restaurant in HCMC, I guess this is the standard here

Solid select and food 8/10

This place you have to basically go through the party street and then through street alley and are met with a much calmer demeanor, this has a fine selection of some viet classics (from a western perspective) and they execute well on most, the ice cream isn't amazing though

The kombucha is also really nice and worth a try.
I hope to go back and try some of their other food.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
Highly recommend.

Rude service, horrible food

Was excited to try this place but the bad food and horrible service ruined the night. Banh mi and soup were both gross.

Why is the tall waitress so hateful? If you do not like what you do, find something else in life. Don’t spew your misery on others - especially your customers.

Cons: Soup, Banh mi flavor was strange
