Acoustic Bar - Ngô Thời Nhiệm

The staff service was great. They have lots of talented singers. Props to the band for playing non-stop. Nice drink selection. They take credit cards. Recommended!

Thanks to Reddit recommendation, I visited here with my friends during my short trip to HCMC in Oct. The live music starts at 9.15pm till 12am, and man we had such a great time there!! There's a dozen of singers performing that night. The band and singers are all super super talented and clearly love what they do. They are shining in passion, if you know what I'm talking about. The drinks and services are nice as well, cheers to the service crew. Highly highly recommend if you are around, just order yourself a drink and enjoy the music. I'll be back if I'm visiting HCMC next time :)

One of my usual acoustic spots, and honestly one of my favorites because they have such great taste in music. The song choices are always excellent, and the musicians are genuinely talented. They know how to create a really nice atmosphere, and I always enjoy spending an evening here. They used to have a saxophone player, which honestly took the experience to a 10/10. Unfortunately, they no longer have the saxophone, and that’s a pretty big downside for me because it added something really special to the performances. The same band and lead singer also perform regularly, so if you come here often, the experience can feel a little repetitive. That said, they’re genuinely amazing musicians, and I still really enjoy coming here. Overall, definitely one of my go-to places for live acoustic music. I just really wish they’d bring the saxophone back — it was such a good touch.

Amazing place with a great atmosphere! The staff were very entertaining and made everyone feel welcome. The live singer spoke excellent English, had a beautiful voice, and created such a fun vibe throughout the night. The venue is also very LGBTQ+ friendly, which made us feel comfortable and welcomed. I had a fantastic time and will definitely come back!

I’ve been to a few Acoustic Bar locations over the years, and I usually visit the branch on Nam Kỳ Khởi Nghĩa. However, I had the chance to check out the Ngô Thời Nhiệm branch on April 12, 2025, and it offered a completely different vibe. Unlike some of the other Acoustic Bar locations that focus on softer acoustic performances, this branch leans more toward energetic music and rock songs. The atmosphere was lively, and the crowd seemed really engaged with the performances. My friend and I were especially impressed by the band led by the long-haired musician in the black shirt featured in the video. The band’s energy, stage presence, and musicianship really stood out and made the night memorable. That said, the other performers were also very talented and delivered a great show. If you’re looking for a more upbeat live music experience rather than a quiet acoustic night, this Acoustic Bar branch is definitely worth checking out. The music, atmosphere, and performers combined to create a fun evening, and I’d be happy to come back again. 🎸🎶
