Frommer's Review

On the quaint, up-and-coming "restaurant row" Ngueyen Thiep (just off Don Khoi), this bright, lively little place is a favorite with French expats and tourists. The food is simple yet innovative French fare, including beef pot-au-feu and sea bass tartare with olives. Try the seafood stew, lightly seasoned with saffron and packed with fish, clams, and shrimp. The seating is quite cozy, especially because the restaurant is always full, and the Vietnamese waitstaff is exceptionally friendly, speaking both French and English. The menu is bilingual, too. A large French wine list and classic dessert menu finish off a delightful meal.
