Sit on the street corner and watch the hectic intersectionn while you eat your burger. They do a good special of free local beer with any burger. I like the Vespa burger, or cheese burger. with fries and salad. Under $5 USD

On a friend's suggestion I went to seek out Cafe Zoom in order to tour the city, like most people in HCMC, on a motorbike. It was a great suggestion and I had a really fun day! I didn't realize that HCMC was so expansive so this is a great way to see some of the "more out of the... More

Zoom has a reputation of having the best burger in HCMC. I don't concur but their burgers are decent. The best part about Zoom is it's location. You get to see the zaniness and unpredictability of the Pham Ngu Lao area all in one sitting while drinking a cold beer. They do have very cold beer which is great. The... More

We arrived in HCMC a day prior to starting our 7 day Vespa tour so we decided to check out the cafe as we had heard so much about it & also it is the "headquarters" for the Vespa tours. The location is great as you can watch the hustle & bustle of the city as you sit either inside... More

After about 2 weeks in the region enjoying local cuisine, we felt like something "different", so we went to Zoom based on Tripadvisor reviews. I had the Zoom burger, and I have to say it was excellent, and not just for SE Asia as some have said. My partner had the fish and chips and he enjoyed that too. The... More

Great spot for easy lunch, dinner, well prepared menu and reasonable prices. Cold beer and a great view of the Saigon bustling street life at night.
