River View Restaurant and Coffee

I really enjoyed this Egyptian restaurant! The food was delicious and the flavors were really good. The only disappointment was the lamb ribs — they were quite tough and difficult to eat. And just one funny thing happened during our visit… we had a little guest: a cockroach! 🪳😂 It was hanging around and even flying from time to time. Definitely an unexpected part of the dinner experience! Overall, I really liked the restaurant and would come back for the food.

It was my first time trying Arab cuisine, and I chose the Egyptian version. I had the mixed platter with lamb, beef, and chicken... the meat was extremely delicious and flavorful. I also really enjoyed the other unique dishes, and the sauces tasted amazing. Overall, it's much easier to eat compared to Indian food. I will definitely come back.

Exceptional food and remarkable service. This is by far the best lamb I have had in Vietnam from a halal restaurant. The meat is fresh and perfectly cooked we got the combo that was excellent. Their staff is very good and excellent at communication. Highly recommended!

Good food. The chef really knows how to cook good Arabic Food. We ordered Tabouleh salad, humus and some lamb dishes and they were all very tasty. The Arabic bread was freshly made and very nice. My Vietnamese wife also loved the dishes. The portions were very big 😁👍 I couldn't finish all my food and they packed it for me to take home 😁👍👍 Finally, we were served with a lovely Egyptian Mint Tea 👍 I will definitely return to this restaurant to try more yummy dishes 😁💞💗🙏🏼🙏🏼

Don’t ever come here, mate. I thought I was dealing with kindergarten kids. Before 2022, I came here quite often when I was staying in HCMC. Back then, the whole team was humble, decent, and knew how to treat people properly. The owner is a genuine bloke. Well, things have certainly changed, haven’t they? I visited again recently, and the whole atmosphere felt bloody awkward. Maybe the owner is changed, who knows. In short: awful communication and quiet resistance. The customer service is like, well...... you try to sort things out like a normal adult, but what I got? I feel like I was dealing with a bunch of kids. I was going to spell out what happened here in details, but after reading their replies to negative reviews......well, the ego of the person behind their google account is toxic. Spend your money somewhere else!!!
