Nam Nam Burrito & Tacos operates inside The Shack bar on Nguyễn Văn Hưởng, a setup that gives the whole experience a distinctly unhurried quality — guests eat surrounded by bar stools, cold beer at 35,000 VND a bottle, and occasional rain drifting past the open frontage.
The burritos are West coast in style rather than Tex-Mex: tightly wrapped, not heavy with sauce, built on fresh ingredients. The Cali burrito is the standout, cited by regulars as the best-value option of its kind in Thao Dien. Soft tacos and crispy tacos complete the main offerings, dressed with fresh cilantro, diced onions, lime, and a house-made salsa that brings real heat without drowning the other flavors.
Price is mentioned in almost every review. Guests who eat burritos regularly across Ho Chi Minh City consistently put this at one-half to one-third the cost of comparable options — and rank the quality above more expensive alternatives. Portions land as a proper meal rather than a light snack, which matters when the price is already this low.
Owner Phil draws repeated mentions for being attentive and genuinely invested in the guest experience. Staff offer recommendations and take time with first-timers. The atmosphere suits solo diners, couples, and small groups equally well, and takeaway orders are handled without friction.
Among the Western food options scattered across Thao Dien, Nam Nam competes on value and consistency rather than fitout or spectacle. Its 5.0 rating across 80 reviews reflects returning customers rather than first-visit enthusiasm. Saturday hours begin at 4:30 PM; all other days run from 11 AM to 11:30 PM.

Had an amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious. Every dish was packed with flavour and cooked really well. The serving sizes were also very generous. The chill and relaxing atmosphere of the place is also a huge plus. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy good food, have drinks, and spend quality time with friends. Definitely one of the best places to dine and drink in Saigon. Highly recommended for anyone craving tasty Mexican food with a great vibe!
I must admit, I had some reservations about the Mexican food reviews here in Vietnam. However, after reading the reviews and seeing the food for myself, I was pleasantly surprised. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive to our needs and giving us recommendations which I actually like. My standards for Tex-Mex food are quite high, especially since I’m half Mexican and my partner is fully Mexican. Despite these expectations, I highly recommend this place. I even brought my picky-eater friend along to see if she’d enjoy it, and she ended up ordering more food than she could eat! I’d definitely go back
Dining at Nam Nam Burrito and Taco was such a satisfying experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely sumptuous, flavorful, and freshly prepared. Every bite was packed with authentic Mexican flavors, from the perfectly seasoned meat to the rich sauces and fresh toppings. The burritos were generously filled, the tacos were deliciously crafted, and the overall presentation made the meal even more enjoyable. What made the experience even better was the warm and accommodating staff. They were friendly, attentive, and made sure customers felt welcome and comfortable throughout the visit. Their excellent customer service added a personal touch that truly stood out. The restaurant itself had a lively and cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and enjoy good food with friends or family. Portions were worth the price, and the quality of ingredients was very noticeable. If you’re craving flavorful Mexican food with excellent service and a great dining atmosphere, Nam Nam Burrito and Taco is definitely a place worth visiting. Highly recommended for anyone who loves hearty, delicious, and satisfying meals.
Solid taco place! Worth the money. Lots of meat and big servings. Margarita is also strong and taste good!
I recently had the chance to try some tacos, and I have to say—they did not disappoint. What really stood out were the toppings. Fresh cilantro, diced onions, a squeeze of lime, and a spicy house-made salsa brought everything together. Each bite was a mix of textures and bold flavors—savory, tangy, and just the right amount of heat.
