We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience! Everything, from the taste and texture of the dishes to their presentation and the attentive service, was exceptional. Out of the 13 dishes we tried, only the duck sausage on toast fell slightly short of the high standard set by the others, but it wasn’t a significant drawback. The overall menu was thoughtfully curated, with a cohesive concept that was executed brilliantly. The flavors struck a perfect balance between being familiar and innovative, evoking a delightful sense of nostalgia while showcasing the chef's incredible creativity. We were truly impressed and can’t wait to return!

Had an amazing experience at Miên Saigon. The warm, comfortable seating and welcoming atmosphere made me feel like eating at home
This time, me and my friend tried the new menu - "Mâm Hội Cỗ Làng", a Central Vietnam tasting menu that captures the essence of Vietnamese cuisine. The "Mâm Hội Cỗ Làng" tasting menu is inspired by the short journey of Chef Dung and her team along the coast of Central Vietnam. It beautifully encapsulates the vibrant flavors of village feasts, showcasing a wide array of tastes, including sour, spicy, salty, and sweet. The menu consists of a 13-course tasting with excellent wine pairings. Each beautifully plated dish reflects in-season local products and captures the humble charm of roadside stalls, as well as the grandeur of royal banquets. The mussels on crispy dough sticks, squid "xeo" pancake rolls, and lobster with fermented shrimp were super delicous. The standout dishes must include those in "Mâm Cơm": royal lotus rice, chargrilled black coot, beef heart with greens, pickles, and lotus root soup. For dessert, đà lạt persimmon and corn sweet dessert were meticulously made and tasted delicous.
Mien Sai gon is a perfect choice for anyone looking to explore authentic Vietnamese flavors presented in modern twist. I can't wait until my next visit!

Miên Saigon is a homely, cozy, Michelin Selected authentically Vietnamese restaurant serving elevated family style cuisine. They have adynamic & energetic management team | Co-Founders Dinh Bach Nga, Toan, Quang & Nguyen & Head Chef Dung. The décor is nice and comfy and well-lit and with a hint of a Japanese influence, some beautiful artwork & with the Dung's open kitchen as its apex.
• I especially enjoyed the pork belly in fish sauce, the delish duck salad, their range of homemade “booch” & pickles and their Dalation persimmon sorbet was a lovely option to kick off their dessert flight. The owners also have Ủ Bar located up on the 2nd floor for diners deserving of that “gear shift” moment.
