Dotori Dining - Japanese restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City

Beef Donburi 5 Eggs Ben noodles 4 Katsu Curry 2 Would've given it 5 stars for food, but its 4 because of the pork katsu curry. I felt that it's rather disappointing because we are limited to just Hire (Filet) where i felt that Rosu (Loin) wouldve been a better choice and having that option to choose would be great. For context, i have suggested to wait staff for mine to be Rosu but they said it was up to the kitchen staff. However, no complaints on the other 2 dishes, they were great.

Had a great meal at Dotori Dining! The food was delicious, portions were generous, and everything was nicely presented. The staff were friendly and the service was fast. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, making it a nice place to relax and enjoy a meal. Would definitely come back again!

March 12th, 2026 - This was my first time dining at Dotori Dining Thao Dien, and it was such a lovely experience. The restaurant is located inside a quieter alley in Thao Dien, so at first it was somewhat hard to find the parking lot because it’s at the end of the road. But once I got there, the warm and cozy atmosphere made it feel worth the visit. I tried the Tornado Omelette Rice, and it was definitely a highlight. The omelette was beautifully made, soft, and silky, with a rich flavor that paired perfectly with the rice. It looked impressive when served, but what I enjoyed most was how comforting and satisfying it tasted from the first bite to the last. The service was also sincere and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Overall, Dotori Dining Thao Dien left a great first impression on me, and I would happily come back again.

Every dish we had was decent. I especially love the maze noodles with green onion. However I wish there was more options with protein. Almost every dish was deep fried and the oil wasn’t properly drained so it was very heavy. The tempura donburi didn’t come with any sauce, which is a strange omission because tempuras always have a light soy sauce dipping sauce. The dish was basically rice, an onsen egg and deep fried tempura. Lastly, the rice wooden chairs / bench are very uncomfortable. The resto should get some cushions

There aren't many good pork cutlet restaurants in Ho Chi Minh City, but this place is a real gem. The sauce is delicious, and the meat is tasty. It is a bit pricey, but the portions are generous, so it is worth it considering the taste. Please keep in mind that there may be a wait if it gets busy.
