Wow, we spent our last night here for dinner... we were a bit short on cash, but when we walked in, we did not want to leave! We were seated beside the river in a beautiful garden with fairy lights in the trees. The service was great, the food delicious and the drinks just as good. This restaurant was a... More

The garden setting was just beautiful although the constant heavy beat music from a club over the river was a pity. The food was good, but we felt it was over-priced and rather predictable. Lacked the imagination of the Mango Mango chefs

Great setting in the garden, it was lovely, food was excellent but about 2-3 times the price of other local restaurants where it was the same price as eating out in Australia.

Went to this restaurant recommended by a very dear friend. You can't fault this place with its amazing Hoi An architecture and ambiance- it's truly Asia... Went here at night which made it more magical. Location is by the lake... With the silk lanterns all lit at night - the whole Ancient town just comes to life... The food was... More

Great position next to the river but I found the food and it's presentation a bit average....maybe it was just what I ordered. The staff weren't really on their game either.
