Reviews of our Restaurant

Simply the best, food is diverse and tastes awesome. The owner took great care of my family while we were in Phong Nha. Take time to visit their Bomb Crater bar…

Christian St-Laurent

Had a great dinner! The service was really good and the food was quite the best we had along our trip. After the dinner we also had a chat with the friendly owner and his wife, who gave us tips for our further journey (they spoke a really good English and that’s rare!)
