Hoshiyo Dining Lounge - Japanese restaurant in Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City

Atmosphere is great and picture worthy! Cocktails were surprisingly good! The starters were really good as well! Order more of that ☺️

Hoshiyo Dining Lounge is a fantastic choice for a date night where the atmosphere and the "vibe" are the priority. We choose here to do a birthday event. (definitely) The service is stellar, and you will certainly have a pleasant evening. If you're going for a revolutionary culinary journey, you might find the flavors a bit too restrained, but for a beautiful night out with a view that justifies the price of admission, it’s a solid contender. Reflection. There is a slight gap between expectation and reality at Hoshiyo. When you are sitting in such a glamorous setting with impeccable service, you expect the food to have a certain "edge" or a signature bold flavor. While everything was technically "correct" and enjoyable, some dishes felt a bit safe or lacked the culinary punch suggested by the ambiance.

📍GLAMOROUS japanese fusion with GRAND view! Dining at Hoshiyo was a nice experience. All staffs were welcoming & supportive across the service. After a few glance, we opted for their Breaking Dawn set & extra teriyaki fires. Fries were straight cut, crispy, and nicely drowned in teri sauces. Appertizer highlight was definitely Hotate mentaiko - the rich fatty taste of cheese & mentaiko blends well with the umami scallop. For main course, grilled salmon & iberico pork were both pleasant. However, be expected that the portion is smaller than average but the taste & view does worth the experience.

Japanese restaurant with great night view and interior. The building is more Japanese than Japan itself, somehow you could feel the atmosphere of “ kill bill” They have all varieties of Japanese food with good look & feel. I have a big question mark for the taste but could be a nice restaurant for the anniversaries. Full of well-dressed Vietnamese couples.

Cool place, especially for pictures with Landmark 81 as the backdrop. The view alone already makes it worth a visit. They also have live music with someone playing instruments, which adds a nice vibe to the evening. Service is very good and attentive. The atmosphere is lively and stylish, though it would be even better if the lights were a bit dimmer to make it feel more intimate. Food is alright, nothing bad but not the main highlight either. Overall, this feels like a place people come to for the ambiance, service, live music, and photos rather than specifically for the food.
