Well worth the $6 taxi ride into the suburbs. The classical French menu has something for everyone and the chef is on hand to make recommendations. I chose the three course menu which set me back about $34USD. I wouldn't say it's cheap but you get what you pay for. The atmosphere was a bit dull but it's all about... More

The villa that hosts the restaurant is very nice, although a bit difficult to find. Make sure that you have a reservation and print of the little plan that Tina sends you: your taxi driver will appreciate it. The service is excellent and very personal: Thierry, the chef, came to chat at our table and gave us an excellent recommendation... More

This is certainly the only one restaurant in Saïgon where you have a real gastromic dinner. The quality of the food, the diversity and Vietnamese touch is fantastic. The level is as a 1 star french restaurant. Don't go with 10 friends, this is not the place but go with your partner ! Price is obviously very high for Saïgon... More

This French restaurant is down a quiet street in An Phu and definitely stands out among the Western restaurants in HCMC. The service was great, staff welcoming and the food was delicious and extremely rich. I would however, recommend going with a small group as they do not have large tables to accommodate large groups.
