Mâm Mâm completely made my Friday night, though my weekend peaked way too early because of them! We ordered over half the menu because self-control apparently doesn't exist when the food is this good. Honestly, you could close your eyes, point at any random item on the menu, and you won't be disappointed. They take everyday Vietnamese ingredients and twist them into absolute masterpieces. You seriously cannot skip dessert, their Bánh Cam and Kem Dừa are definitely not the traditional versions you grew up eating. They will completely blow your mind with their creativity! Even the cocktails are a genius, boozy twist on local flavors. The staff are super friendly and supportive, and they even kept treating us with free drinks. Go there for the amazing cozy vibes, and leave with a very happy food coma!

Reviews
Highly recommend this spot if you want to impress foreign business partners or experience Vietnamese cuisine reimagined. I recently dined here with my bosses and a business partner, and we were all thoroughly impressed. - The Ambiance: Cozy, quiet, warm, and subtly romantic with a luxurious feel. Perfect for meaningful conversations. - The Food (A Vietnamese Elevation): We ordered 6 tapas, 2 salads, and 1 main. Every single dish was a hit. Must-try items: Salmon Guacamole, Dry-Aged Duck Breast, Beef Skewers, and the incredible Fried Rice with Tây Bắc Braised Beef Short Ribs. - The Service (Standout!): Our waitress was phenomenal—attentive, friendly, and thoughtful. She perfectly explained each dish, helped us balance our menu, and recommended an excellent wine pairing. The Verdict: The price is on the higher side, but it is worth every single penny. This restaurant truly deserves more recognition. Will absolutely return!
The restaurant is designed extremely well with a lot of space and unique decor. The menu was also delicious with a fusion aspect to it. The tilapia sashimi was by far the best dish that I ordered. Staff all around was exceptional. Couldn’t get over the open space and the design very elegant. And most important the pricing was extremely affordable relative to the location and menu selection Definitely going again and will recommend
Such a great gem of a restaurant. The appertizer, which was some type of broth cooked with mushrooms and seafood, was such a treat. It had a unique umami flavour. The other dishes were also wonderfully made and offered a wonderful experience. The staff (Ân and Trang) were very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend.
The whole concept does not work for me, unfortunately. It seems a bit too pretentious, offering ordinary Vietnamese dishes as something much more premium, with a very generic high-end-looking decoration. The dishes are not that good either, most are too salty. The desert is great though, and the staff are helpful and friendly. But overall, definitely not worth the outragous pricing.
