I like that I can combine my two favorite dishes together. Good sign is many Korean people eat here. The staff is attentive and they even gave me Yakut to drink. Also, you can also fry your own egg, which is very cool!

Maybe we came at the wrong time/day and picked the wrong items, but I dont understand the 4.9 rating... It was busy and tables all full, staff running, but still very polite and friendly. We choose the set menu with black bean noodles and spicy soup. The black bean noodle was very blend and lacking flavor compared to the spicy soup, which was overly spicy and salty. Wouldn't necessarily want to come back.
I recently discovered 도야 짬뽕 in Ho Chi Minh City, and it completely exceeded my expectations! If you're craving authentic Korean-Chinese cuisine, this is the place to go. The jjamppong (spicy seafood noodle soup) is incredibly flavorful — rich, spicy broth with generous portions of fresh seafood and perfectly cooked noodles. It tastes just like what you'd find in Korea! The menu also offers other classics like jajangmyeon and tangsuyuk, all prepared with great attention to detail. The flavors are bold and authentic, and you can tell the chef really knows what they're doing. The restaurant itself is clean, cozy, and welcoming, with friendly staff who go out of their way to make sure you’re comfortable. Whether you're Korean, Vietnamese, or a tourist looking to try something new, you'll feel right at home here. Highly recommend this place — it's a must-visit if you're in Ho Chi Minh and looking for something different and delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Service was really good. The half/half dishes were enjoyable. All the food was delicious - authentic Korean/Chinese jjajang and jjampong with a twist and a variety of choices on the menu. Highly recommend this branch.
Delicious food, and it's one of our family's favorite places. We come here regularly and highly recommend it for families with young kids.
