CieL Dining - Restaurant in Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City

Ciel dining definitely the best fine dining restaurant in Saigon for me!!!! I will highly recommend all the foodie to arrange a trip to HCM for that. Menu per pax is start from 3.6M+++ VND Wine pairing is start from 1.8M+++ VND We have more than 10 courses included amuse bouche. It’s a wonderful experience. The food is totally umami, intense, showcase the taste of nature!!! The service staff explain the dishes in English fluently. They did make me feel comfort and enjoy the rhythm of dining It’s located in Thao Dien, District 2 of Ho Chi Minh City. Give me a try!!!!!!

There are 9 restaurants which have Michelin 1 star in Vietnam. And I have visited 8 restaurants. The only 1 star restaurant that I have not visited is the one in Đà Nẵng City. In my taste, this restaurant ranks among top 3 for sure. They have the delicate layers of the taste. I felt the similar layers of the taste at Gia Restaurant at HaNoi. I found out that the chefs are friends to each other. The way into the restaurant is not easy to find, or I missed the sign out of the valley. But luckily there was a one lady standing at the valley to guide the customers. All of the workers are so kind, of course. The doneness of the foods was excellent, especially I liked the Fish Maw, Kailaan with FoieGras and Mallard steak. Others are also great. The server explained that this Fish Maw is the signature dish in Ciel. When I tasted it, I did not know how special it was. But later I visited a Chinese restaurant which has also a Michelin Star, I could verify Ciel's Fish Maw. Yep, it is a signature dish there. You will enjoy to be here.

Absolutely delicious! I’m glad I decided to dine at CieL the food was amazing! We sat at the counter and were able to see everything prepared in front of us. The menu incorporated Vietnamese fine dining with elements of French and Chinese cuisine. All the ingredients tasted so fresh. Big shoutout to the chef and his talented team for making it such a unique experience.

Great experience! Highly recommended Michelin experience in Vietnam. Reservations were easy and smooth. We chose to sit at the counter to enjoy the team working on the dishes. Food were plenty and each dish was tasty and beautiful. Wine selection was good. Service was perfect!!

Beautiful location and setup combining counter dining and style. The big team worked pretty harmonious - nice to watch. A lot to experience and taste. Absolutely enjoyable. [Visited in October 2025, restaurant had 1 Michelin star at that time]
