AEX Cocktail Bar

The bar has a great vibe and a unique style. The staff were incredibly friendly, polite, and attentive. I just told them what flavors I liked, and they gave me detailed recommendations and even suggested the best cocktail mix to match my taste. They also walked me to the door when I left, which was a really nice touch. 😂 The music was chill and at a comfortable volume, making it easy to relax and chat. The place also smelled amazing thanks to the essential oils you could even notice the fragrance from outside. My cocktail was exactly what I asked for, and I really enjoyed it. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’d definitely come back!💖

Accidentally found on GG. Great place for delicious cocktails. Nice and friendly staff, especially Huy Thanh. Will be back again soon.

We tried 4 signatures on the menu and were pleasantly impressed by the consistent quality and creativity in each drink. A fantastic place to experience cocktail art. The dragon fruit drink is definitely one of the most creative cocktail I have tried in Sai Gon so far. Each drink is layered with very well balanced flavors. Bartenders know their craft with a range of aromatic ingredients. Presentation is on point! Surprisingly most reviews are from the morning coffee but not so much compliments for the night bar service. The staff spoke fluent English and very attentive. They know how to engage us while give us our private space. Price is relatively in the same range of other boutique cocktail. So glad they banned flash photography because that habit truly destroys bar vibe everywhere. Kudos to management! The most interesting drink unfortunately was not available because the creator wanted to take it back and perfect the recipe. Hat off the bartender who respect the art of cocktail and maintain such high standards. Definitely coming back on my next trip to Vietnam!

Came for a cocktail and stayed for a glass of wine. Interesting interior design. Quite quiet in the evening compared to other close by cocktail bars. The design is interesting and definitely needs some daytime exploration while the space is being used as a coffee shop. In terms of menu, I do have to make a comment, they ask you to scan a QR code to get to their menu which has an interstitial ad that drops a bunch of tracking cookies on your mobile browser. Yuck! So, in terms of digital hygiene, they get penalized. (-1 point) QR menus are interesting and trendy, but they do pose a security risk for the end user. The menu itself has a few specialty cocktails, a few wines by the glass, wines by the bottle, food options. I didn’t really see a very diverse cocktail menu, hence my choice. Would I come back? Definitely to check out the space during the day. To have a cocktail, maybe if I have a friend who wants a quiet change of pace.

Found this gem randomly through Google reviews! The vibe is just as cozy as pictured, with chill music and atmospheric dim lighting. Cocktails are top-notch and the staff are very welcoming. If you're visiting Saigon, this is a must-visit. You definitely won’t be disappointed!
