XVI Thao Dien

If you’re after a fresh change to the usual Vietnamese dinner, this is the place to come. Western cuisine with an Asian twist. Variety of choices from starters to mains and desserts. We enjoyed a happy hour cocktail and I have to say the espresso martini was one of the best I’ve had in awhile. Staff were very helpful with selecting things to try from the menu We had a mix of starters from teriyaki chicken skewers which were juicy and full of flavour. Chips and jalapeño poppers that hit the spot not too spicy just a little bit of zing. For means we had a mixture of tuna club sandwich. This was a little bit on the wet side and fell apart when eating but all up the flavour was nice. Bolognese spaghetti decent serving size with Parmesan cheese all over the top. The burger was super juicy and the pickles inside were crunchy and sweet. This made a delicious burger and the cheddar cheese on it was the perfect balancer Honey bourbon ribs were more honey barbecue and bourbon and had a very shop bought barbecue sauce taste to them. The meat was super tender and fell off the bone in your mouth. Perfectly paired with rice and salad. The octopus dish had three octopus and the most beautiful dressing to go with them but was missing something to soak up the beautiful dressing that was provided on the plate. A crunchy crouton or a bit of pita bread would’ve been amazing to compliment this dish. All up our experience was fantastic. The ambience of this place is great and the staff were amazing and super helpful. Perfect place to come with your family or in a big group as there are games for the kids to play and entertain the whole family Thank you to the chefs and staff

Nice restaurant with really good food. Love the wonton beef starters, pizza and pasta is great too! Must come for the good food and it’s good service.

XVI is definitely a restaurant worth visiting if you’re looking for a great dining experience in HCMC. The restaurant has a beautiful nouveau riche aesthetic that gives the space a stylish, luxurious, and unique atmosphere. It’s the kind of place that feels special without sacrificing comfort, making it a great choice for a date night, celebration, or simply a night out when you want to enjoy something a little more elevated. The food was excellent, and the portions were surprisingly generous. We had the ribs and the shrimp rigatoni, and both dishes were delicious, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Everything we ordered was satisfying, and we left feeling like we had a truly complete dining experience rather than just a meal. A special shout-out to Nathan, our server, who was incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the evening. His warm and welcoming service really added to the experience and made our date night even more enjoyable. Between the gorgeous atmosphere, delicious food, generous portions, and excellent service, XVI is definitely a place I would recommend to anyone visiting Thao Dien area. We had a fantastic evening and would happily come back again!

The dish has been adjusted a little according to the local taste, but it’s delicioussss. The atmosphere is quiet, chill and relaxing. The food is served after ~ 10-15 minutes. Ah staff are extremely friendly, recommend this place 😉
