The Story

About This Place

With a 4.8 rating across thousands of reviews, Bảo Bội has built a loyal following on Song Hành for its authentic Korean cooking — the kimchi alone keeps regulars coming back. The casual, cozy space works well for solo diners grabbing a quick bite or groups settling in for a full dinner with beer and cocktails. Late-night food options and a menu that stretches from breakfast through dessert make it one of the more versatile Korean spots near Thao Dien.

If you’re craving authentic Korean-style black bean noodles in Ho Chi Minh City, Bảo Bối Jajangmyeon in District 2 is a hidden gem worth checking out. The noodles are perfectly chewy, coated in a rich and savory black bean sauce that balances sweetness and umami beautifully. Portions are generous, and the side dishes (especially the kimchi and pickled radish) complement the meal really well. The restaurant has a cozy, casual vibe—ideal for both solo diners and small groups. Staff are friendly and attentive, making sure you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. Prices are reasonable for the quality, and the food comes out quickly, even during busy hours. One highlight is their consistency: every visit feels just as satisfying as the last. If you’re in District 2 and want a comforting, flavorful Korean meal, this spot should definitely be on your list.

Right next to Mega Market. The food is truly amazing, especially the tangsuyuk, you can eat it over and over without getting tired of it. This is what we'll definitely come back for *updated: we actually came back for the tangsuyuk, been craving it ever since

Surprisingly popular with the locals. the Jajangmyeon is good but the portion of the noodles is not much, maybe I ordered small portion. The sweet and sour pork comes with a bit of fats, that’s why it’s not so dry, and fried correctly, really nice. Will come back for the jjampong.
