LAGarden Restaurant - Vietnamese restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City

The best city view restaurant I’ve visited so far. We were luck that the weather was so chill so sit outside. Highly recommend RSVP for outside table. You could see all the famous building of the city. Quite place. And also a lot of good food option. Should try their draft beer.

A strange combination of Western fine dining vibe and Vietnamese menu. Some dishes are great, some are just ok given the high prices. Staff is somewhat cold and distanced. The view and parking space is great though.

I discovered Lan Anh Garden through a friend, and honestly, it’s a well-known spot nestled inside the Lan Anh Villa area. The riverside view here is unbeatable – right across from Landmark 81, with a relaxing breeze and even a yacht club nearby. It’s safe to say the view gets a solid 10/10, and the entire place is spotless. The space is open and spacious, offering both indoor and outdoor seating. The indoor area is air-conditioned, which makes it a great option for daytime visits. But if you come in the evening when it’s cooler, the outdoor area is the place to be – it gives you a full panoramic view of the city skyline. Quick tip: Make a reservation in advance. On special occasions like holidays or firework festivals (like the recent April 30th), the place gets fully booked – to the point where they stop taking orders! The menu is divided by time of day. In the morning, you’ll find a decent selection of breakfast and light dishes. Prices for food typically range from 160K to over 200K VND (before tax). Drinks fall around 60K to 100K VND. Admittedly, that’s a bit steep compared to average cafes, but for the quality, the ambiance, and the overall experience – it’s fair. Beyond the food, Lan Anh Garden is part of a broader lifestyle complex. You’ll find a pool, a peekaboo play area for kids, tennis courts, and super clean, well-maintained restrooms. The staff is also quick, friendly, and professional. Parking is free for both cars and motorbikes – another plus. All in all, this is a great spot whether you’re looking to: • Enjoy a chill coffee during the day (though it can be a bit hot outdoors), • Grab lunch in a peaceful setting, • Or have a romantic dinner with a riverside view that’s arguably even better than The Deck. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Saigon.

I chose this place to cheer up my team, and it was an excellent choice. Everyone loved it; the ambiance and service were fantastic. The only downside was that the food was a bit of a fusion between Asian and European cuisines, so it didn't have its own unique specialty. Sure i will be back

We choose it for dinner and ... the view was very nice. But food was very so so. Duck breast dry and chewy, salad not tasty. View is amazing. Staff forget about one our dish (luckily) but didn't ask us for 30 min if we need something (while we though, that we are waiting for last dish).
