Got the appetizer set and did not disappoint + the chicken which I was craving for. Apart from the amazing food which is a given, they really be giving Michelin a run for it's money - Thu gave us exquisite service throughout the meal! Will definitely be back.

Service was excellent! Food was okay, we liked the pomelo salad, soft shell crab and the banana coconut ice cream, rest are good but does not give the wow factor. Maybe we didn’t order correctly so next time we’ll get the tasting menu - hopefully it will better curated.

Stopped by this place for lunch after doing a little bit of work at a cafe nearby in the Thai Dien neighborhood. I found the space quite cozy and elegant with its dark wood and grey green color palette—clean, inviting, and a cool respite from the heat outside. The service was exceptional—efficient, courteous, and attentive without being overbearing, so thank you Thu for a lovely lunch. The food was also pretty solid, contemporary takes on traditional Vietnamese flavors and dishes. I’m a small bites kind of person, so I mainly ordered from the appetizers and small plates menu. Definitely on the pricier side than what you would normally pay for a meal in this city, but the flavors struck a good balance between being accessible and authentic.

Kim Phụng has been such a lovely host; tending to all our needs, pointing out specials and giving good recommendations. Her warm service and attentiveness is simply impeccable. Truly such a pleasure dining here with the quality of food and hospitality. You must make this a stop whenever in HCMC.

Madame Lam restaurant is charming and the dinner was truly authentic. I'd highly recommend the chargrilled boneless chicken. (Ga Nuong Muoi Ot) Thank you Kim Yen for the wonderful and attentive service. Definitely coming back again.
