The best for the dawn watching. I dont like they use fan because it is too strong to any corner that you sot close to it. Music style need to be more zen so people can talk and just relax.

스토리
이 장소에 대해
Clay는 Thao Dien의 사이공 강변에 자리하며, The Deck의 자매 레스토랑으로 운영된다. 사방이 트인 구조 덕분에 더운 날씨에도 쾌적하게 시간을 보낼 수 있다. 주방은 프랑스-싱가포르 출신 셰프가 이끌고 있으며, 유럽의 조리 기법과 현지 식재료를 균형 있게 결합한 메뉴에서 그 영향이 고스란히 드러난다. 구운 문어는 질기지 않고 부드럽게 완성되고, 포크 벨리는 달콤 짭조름한 글레이즈 덕분에 재방문을 부르는 별미다. 오리 가슴살과 구운 가리비까지 더해진 메뉴는 직화로 완성하는 단백질 요리에 중점을 두고 있다.
같은 저녁 손님을 두고 경쟁하는 강변 레스토랑들 사이에서 Clay를 차별화하는 것은 음식 못지않게 리뷰에서 자주 언급되는 서비스다. 이곳 직원들은 몇 달이 지난 후 다시 찾아온 손님도 알아보고 이전 주문 내역까지 기억하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 비슷한 가격대의 주변 레스토랑에서는 좀처럼 보기 드문 수준의 세심함이다. 직원들은 테이블의 분위기를 잘 파악하여 불필요하게 개입하지 않으면서도 꼭 필요한 순간에 곁에 있다.
이곳을 찾는 손님층은 다양하다. 현지 거주 외국인 커플, 출장 중인 임원들, 사이공 다이닝을 꼼꼼히 조사하고 온 여행객들이 함께 어우러진다. 야외 테라스는 선선한 계절에 가장 쾌적하며, 황혼 무렵에는 모기가 나타나므로 오래 머물 계획이라면 참고할 필요가 있다. 주변에 설치된 선풍기가 공기를 순환시켜 주지만, 테이블 위치에 따라 바람이 강하게 느껴질 수 있다. Clay는 평일 오후 3시, 금·토요일은 오후 4시에 문을 열어 자정까지 운영한다. 이른 칵테일 한 잔을 즐기기에도, 코스 디너를 즐기기에도 모두 잘 맞는 시간대다.
영어로만 작성된 메뉴는 베트남 현지 손님들로부터 간간이 지적을 받기도 하는데, 이는 이 공간의 포지셔닝을 단적으로 보여주는 대목이기도 하다. 그럼에도 영어 메뉴에 거부감이 없는 이들이라면, Thao Dien에서 제대로 된 강변 풍경과 그만한 수고를 보상해 주는 요리를 동시에 갖춘 곳은 손에 꼽는다는 사실을 알게 될 것이다.

리뷰

It’s been 7 years since our last visit. We wanted to experience Clay ( sister restaurant to The Deck, which we enjoyed last time) . Clay offers a fabulous vibe, inviting ambience and thoughtful decor. Excellent service, genuine and friendly. The food simply delicious, tasty and very well crafted by the talented French/Singaporean Chef. Highly recommend.
Food was below average, nothing special for the price range they offer. Service was good, staffs are sweet, but not too attentive. We had to move because the table next to us were smoking cigars, I guess it’s a norm for people to smoke in public in Vietnam. The atmosphere and view was excellent, but I can’t get over the fact that they allowed public smoking for such a “classy” restaurant. 🤷🏻♀️ Another major issues is there is NO Vietnamese menu, which is absolutely ridiculous and disrespectful to Vietnamese locals. I feel like most of their high ratings were because of the nice view and atmosphere.
We had such a lovely evening here. The setting is beautiful and overlooks the river, creating the perfect atmosphere. Every dish was amazing, but the steak and grilled scallops were the real highlights. The staff made us feel so welcome. If you're in Saigon, this is a must-visit!!!
I honestly loved the vibe here. The riverside setting feels airy and chill, and it was really comfortable in January, not too hot at all. The food was decent, not wow, but the service truly made the experience for me. The staff were warm, attentive, and actually cared about our experience, which I don’t always see even in more expensive or famous places. It felt genuine, not forced. 😄 I’d say it’s perfect for dates or small friend groups. Just a small note, there are mosquitoes, so bring spray. I really like Clay for its unique atmosphere and I’ll definitely come back.👍🏻
