We came here for lunch , and left very happy ! A comprehensive menu , with so many delicious dishes (all beautifully presented) , sadly too many to try in one visit - definitely need to return to try some more. Service was friendly and very efficient , and staff happy to assist you in making choices on the menu.... More

We had dinner here our first night in Hoi An and everything was excellent. We made a 7pm reservation and they seated us in the patio area by the river, very pretty ambiance. The service was quick and friendly by Vietnamese standards but they didn't rush us and we took our time enjoying 3 delicious courses. The restaurant is beautiful... More

We enjoyed our lunch here, one rainy day in Hoi An. We sat in a pleasant room (sheltered from the rain but open to the terrace) overlooking the river. It wasn't the cheapest meal we had in Vietnam but wasn't unreasonable for the quality. Nice cold beers and good food in a lovely setting. Staff were pleasant enough.

Quite scenic through a pretty oriental garden to sit by the river with quite a good set lunch menu for 160,000 dong each.lHwever a return visit in the evening saw a mostly uninspiring choice with expensive wine and mingy portions (my prawns bulked out by heads and my partner receiving the mighty number of 4 king prawns in her dish)...

Unbelievable setting ,turn of the century French Provincial building overlooking the river. linen tablecloths and napkins with Vietnamese cuisine. Ridiculously cheap for the setting and service. Food rating 8/10 Alcohol prices are reasonable. A must whilst in Hoi An for lunch or dinner.

Not sure what this enormous place is like at dinner. But at lunch it is a real treat. We wandered in, not knowing what to expect and were ushered to a table in a beautiful garden overlooking the river. Frosted glasses for ice cold beer. Perfectly prepared chaio gao with minimal grease and just the right amount of crunch. Good... More

Great location, beautiful garden, shame the food isn't as good. Good service though expensive compared to other locations and the pork I had was tough and had very little flavour, Disappointing.

What can I say, beautiful surroundings, food great. Would recommend. Service prompt and staff efficient. The sound of the frogs also gave this place a magical feel. Very reasonable prices also.
