Description: Mandarine Restaurant is an old time favorite of companies entertaining guests as well as travelers visiting Ho Chi Minh City. It's a fine dining restaurant serving Vietnamese cuisine tailored for non-Vietnamese nationals. What is unique is that the dipping sauces are homemade mostly from beans which give flavor acceptable to foreigners. The food is created with a story itself of Vietnam being a destination which can be reflected in the traditional decorations served together on the plates. Mandarine is known for its taste and beauty on the dish.

Well decorated restaurant, service staff very good, kitchen and service pretty timely, food is good, prices not out of range for what is offered. Nice, easy and good food dining experience, wine list is ok (relative to what is offered elsewhere in general in Saigon) enjoyed the dinner, simply all went well nothingnto complaint at all, yet not that spectular.

Was looking for a good Vietnamese meal. This place was supposedly hight rated. I found the food average...service was good. Ambience ok...it could have boiled down to what we ordered. .location however is central.

My wife and I are here on our first night in Ho Chi Minh City. The food quality and presentation were excellent. Each dish was a visionary spectacle in its wonderful presentation. We had the pumpkin soup served in coconut shell, the Mandarin special spring rolls, the seafood Spring rolls, the pork ribs slow cooked in cinnamon, broccoli in garlic and the rice twice cooked and served in lotus petals. All was all very good and the Spring rolls especially are not to be missed. The device was exceptional with the matre d' helping with our food and wine selection and the young man who served us was very efficient and pleasant. The restaurant has lovely decor and the live chamber music added refinement to the evening. By Vietnamese standards the meal, with 2 glasses of wine and 2 beers, coming to about 1,200,000 Dong was expensive, but if you want good food, great service and nice surroundings this is a good choice.

This is a very western tourist / business driven restaurant with prices to match. Very elegant nicely designed with very polite local service. Exceptionally clean and tidy, free wifi. Waiting staff were not that good at English but there were enough who could help and everything ran very smoothly.

Mix of classical Chinese and Vietnamese food, well presented, very hot plates and good tastes.

Fantastic spring rolls especially the fish ones, we actually ordered extra plates of those.

Good drinks list and prompt attention in every respect. Not cheap though for HCM about £45 for 2 with beer.

No locals here! Just very good quality all around. Would come again!
