Ohan Restaurant Review

Tatsuhiko Itano is one of Ho Chi Minh's best-known and most-loved expats. His smile and bellowing "Irashaimase!" greet you at the door of this real-deal Japanese Oshushiyasan. Key ingredients are imported, the fish is very fresh, and the presentation is unrivaled. This is the place where Saigon's many Japanese expatriates come to celebrate, and on weekend nights the place is packed. Mr. Itano serves all kinds of Japanese cuisine, along with his famous sushi, from udon noodles to Ochazuke, a dish of special herbs and spices over rice soaked in hot tea. Ohan is the town's most authentic, and Sushi Bar, the most affordable.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
