OZ Coffee House 2

A hit with the locals. When you order cà phê sữa đá here, they serve a small bottle filled with condensed milk and coffee resting in a warm water bath to keep it warm. You pour it over a glass of ice to chill it, but the ice itself is actually frozen coffee. Japan had a similar trend of pouring milk over coffee ice cubes for a while, but this style is quite rare in Ho Chi Minh City. Because the coffee never gets watered down, the balance of coffee and condensed milk seems carefully crafted for this setup—unlike the usual style where intense coffee and milk are meant to be diluted by melting regular ice. From the outside, it looks like there is only outdoor seating, but there is also an air-conditioned room inside. Right next door down an alley, they’ve set up a charming space perfect for taking photos. It was a wonderful coffee break where you could really feel their dedication to making an already beloved spot even more enjoyable for everyone.

Nice little street cafe with a lot of seating (you could call it garden seating, although it might not quite be the atmosphere yoy expect from that title). I lived just down the street for a month and this place was busy every morning. They have the typical drink selection of coffee, tea, cacao, juice, smoothies, etc. that you find in most larger Vietnamese cafes. The price is a bit higher than other places around due to the setting and comfort of seating. The drinks I had were all good, but I will say that the bánh mì chảo here was not quite what I was hoping for. I’ve eaten a lot of bánh mì chảo around Vietnam, and usually the dish has either a tomato sauce base or an oil base for you to dip the bread into, but this particular style was almost completely dry, meaning that you could either stuff the ingredients into the bread or eat the bread dry 😂 The odd thing is that the picture on their menu clearly shows a sauce on the bánh mì chảo, but the two we ordered had nothing. Would definitely recommend that this place considers adding a bit more moisture or some kind of sauce/oil to their bánh mì chảo to make it much more delicious! Besides that, I can definitely recommend this place for a drink and a few hours of relaxation.

Found this place for a quiet evening and some good food. Ambience is great. Outdoor seating may be a bit noisy as its a small street and always busy. Indoor seating was cosy and there was also a setup for someone’s proposal 😉 Overall great place and I enjoyed my solo date! Tried a summer raspberry drink, Garlic egg fried rice and Salmon croquettes. Feedback: The salmon croquettes were not great, tasted very artificial. Don’t recommend that dish.

To be honest, I would’ve given this 4-star after getting disappointed as soon as we got here. I was here a few times years ago and the place had 3 floors with a rooftop and I came to experience that ambiance today. But unfortunately, only the first floor is functioning, most probably the upper floors are for special bookings and occasions. The indoor seating isn’t very comfortable but the BOHO decors kind of give you that cozy vibe. Outdoor is much preferable except a lot of people sit there and smoke. All in all, I’m giving it 4.5 star as the popular Vietnamese “salted coffee” drink here, is really good and authentic. Very similar to that one you can get in Danang and Hue. the drinks are also served in a presentable way and the prices are very affordable. They don’t use specialty coffee bean level but rather the typical Vietnamese coffee that you can get on the street. But still, the drinks come out so good. Hopefully they’ll reopen the upper floors. For a place like this that offers good drinks and decent seats for a very affordable price, I’ll stretch my rating to 5-star!

I visited this place twice. The first time I tried fried frogs and they were surprisingly good. So I came again to try more dishes and all of them I didn't like. Beef, chicken, lava cake, sadly all of them were not good. In fact, they were so bad I couldn't even finish them. Drinks were good both visits. The atmosphere is nice, they have seats both inside and outside and rooftop also. They don't speak English and the menu is only partially translated.
