Ốc Ngon Báo Chí - Vietnamese restaurant in Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City

If you're a fellow traveler, you need to try more places like this. They always have the best food, and treat you like family. This restaurant has all types of fresh seafood ingredients that they cook from scratch. We couldn't read the menu, so the staff helped us by showing us a bunch of photos on their phone of the finished dishes. Really helpful, and nice people here. 👍 Anyway, I was most impressed at how they can take raw ingredients and get so much bold and local flavors on the plate in just a matter of minutes. We absolutely loved the food, and if you like seafood you will too.

So delicious The sauces are amazing (tamarind, salted egg yolk, coconut) All AMAZING. Especially dipping with the baguette. We ordered 2 rounds of food between 5 people and paid 200-240k each.. incredible prices for the quality of food. Also called before hand to see if bring soju was okay and there was absolutely no problem

Good prices, taste ok. Sit on the street

Pretty local seafood restaurant especially clams,no fish. Vietnamese is calling clams ‘Ốc’ Pretty quiet around there,less traffic. There’s tables outside. Reasonable price serving receipt which is reliable. Fleshy clams and fast serving foods. I will come there again which I was so satisfied with there.

amazing seafood and super nice to accommodate my lack of vietnamese. lots of locals here enjoying a great dinner in this part of Thảo Điền. pretty much just pointed at the offerings and trusted them to do their thing and they delivered an exceptional job. most options have the scallion/butter sauce or the cheese sauce. we went twice over a couple days and they recognized us 😅thank you thank you. make sure to ask for bánh mì to soak up the sauces.
