Relish & Sons - Restaurant in Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City

Finally, a New York City approved hot dog in Saigon. Onions caramelized to bring out the needed sweetness to offset the artisan mustard and properly toasted buttered bun. A real treat!!

Birthday burger bliss! We visited Relish and Sons for a birthday treat, and it definitely hit the spot! The atmosphere was casual yet cool—perfect for a laid-back celebration with seriously good food. I had the Sloppy Joe burger, which was packed with flavor and just the right amount of messy—exactly how a Sloppy Joe should be! The tater tots were golden and crispy, though they were more of a crispy shell with not much inside. Still, they paired nicely with the excellent range of house-made sauces—the tomato chilli relish was a standout, bursting with tangy, spicy goodness. My partner ordered the Wagyu burger, and it was a showstopper—juicy, rich, and cooked to perfection. The buns were soft, fresh, and held everything together without getting soggy, which is always a win. Service was friendly and fast, and the whole experience felt like a step above your typical burger joint. Definitely worth a visit if you're craving quality burgers with a gourmet twist.

Very tasty and flavorful burger, very juicy piece of meat. Every bite is a fun experience. I had the signature bbq burger with bacon. The bacon is surreal. Bbq sauce was fantastic. Should have added a fried egg, but that would make the burger super thick but juicy (messy in a good way at the same time). Very small venue, can host barely 10 people. But I love that small atmosphere. Very reasonable pricing, at 200k ($10) for a burger.

Wanted to try the Wagyu, but would rather spend that money on something else. I tried a Wagyu slider. I was warned it was small - that's an understatement. It's half-dollar coin size, maybe smaller... It was a "thick" chunk for a medallion piece of meat. The meat didn't taste like great Wagyu (even though it should all taste the same), but it wasn't bad - just expensive (95K/$3.75). Tried the Iberico Smash burger. It tasted slightly more like sausage than hamburger (if that's what it was). With the mustard on it, it tasted pretty good, but it is 200K ($7.95). With 8% VAT, my order was 318,600 ($12.65); it doesn't come with fries or anything. I might prefer Soul Burger, Burger Boss, Pingu's (out of the Thao Dien/D2 burger joints), but it's a decent burger, and neither of thouse were the best burger I've had in Vietnam so far. I did prefer this over the burgers I've had at Eddie's. No tables, just countertop window seats.
