Generally a nice and cute place. Nice ambience and apparently a Mekka for Instagramers. More of a place for the 20s to 30s Vietnamese generation which is nice to see in Thao Dien. You should definitely visit the place. Menu is quite interesting and portions are pretty decent too. We shared our dish (Cheetoz) and it was just about right.

The food is delicious, though a bit pricey. The presentation is beautiful, and I especially liked the truffle mushroom fries. The drinks are good as well. The space is modern, and I was quite impressed with the toilet, it’s surprisingly fun 🤣

This is my first time here. My friend recommended me this place when I said I am moving to Saigon. The decoration is very modern and fun. I enjoy the atmosphere here a lot. It’s good place to go in both small group of 2 or bigger gathering. The portion of food is hugeeee and quite tasty. I like the squid games pasta. For sure I will be back to try more dishes. The server - Bin is very considerate and acknowledges of the restaurant. He took care of us very well 😄

I was having the worst week of my life when I came this restaurant. Truly anything could have sent me off the edge 😂. But walking into this restaurant was what my soul needed. The ambience at this place was PERFECTION- the perfect lighting, music volume and decor. Nothing was overstimulating or underwhelming. You can tell they put so much effort into it. The food was AMAZING and the staff were all incredibly friendly and gave the best service. Shout out to my waiter Bin who was so sweet and attentive. Thank you for a good night
