Thật sự là mình không hiểu đội ngũ bếp và nhân viên ở đây đang nghĩ gì nữa. Mình order lạp xưởng tươi, ba chỉ cuộn măng tây, ba chỉ bò nướng và một vài món khác nữa. Đây là hình ảnh của thứ đầu tiên nhân viên mang ra cho mình, một xiên ba chỉ cuộn măng tây nướng 28k thì 3 chỉ chắc là 2gram và măng tây chỉ là phần già nhất khi ăn toàn là bã, lạp xưởng tươi 32k trong menu thì để hình ảnh nguyên cây nhưng lúc mang ra thì lại có đúng 5 lát. Mình có feedback lại với nhân viên ngay lúc đó thì bạn ấy cũng chả có hành động gì cả. Còn món ba chỉ bò nướng thì thật sự là không hiểu quán đang nghĩ gì, bò cắt miếng quá to, rất dai và đặc biệt là 1 món mới nướng xong thì không thể nào có thể nguội lạnh 1 cách vô lý. Mình và bạn mình ăn đc 3,4 miếng rồi bỏ lại cả đĩa nhờ nhân viên dọn giúp. Cách đó 4 ngày thì mình cũng ăn ở quán thấy đồ ăn khá là ấn tượng nên quyết định quay lại vào hôm nay nhưng sau hôm nay thì thật sự quá là thất vọng. Xin được phép khuyên mọi người không nên ghé ạ

The menu has a variety of dishes, the prices seem reasonable, but the food served is truly surprising. Everything is very small :))). The quality of each dish is okay. Overall, it looks cheap but is expensive. I find it not very tasty compared to other eateries I've tried in Da Nang. The space is okay.

It's very narrow here, but it's busy and delicious. Sometimes they get confused about who ordered what. A tip is to order multiple things you want to eat all at once. Drinks come quickly, but the food menu is a bit slow, so you need to order everything at once. I ordered everything except the skewers that weren't available, and ate salmon sashimi (about 8 pieces), drank about 3 glasses of draft Sapporo, and spent about 38,000 won. I left very full. The food is really delicious. I definitely recommend stopping by!! Card payment is accepted. There's a 2% VAT added.

Tantanmen: The broth was rich and good, but the minced meat in the broth had a gamey smell. Kimchi: ? (Looks like kimchi only) Salmon sushi: The vinegared rice taste was too weak...

The staff are very friendly, and when I was getting tired of Vietnamese food, I liked that there were so many diverse menu options. If you like alcohol, I definitely recommend it. I had sashimi, salmon, and various skewers, and they were delicious. The staff are really kind. Especially the woman with black-rimmed glasses was very kind, so I was grateful.

★Please, Koreans, you must see this!! Don't ruin your trip★ Oh... truly the worst ㅜㅜ I was having so much fun on my Vietnam trip, and this was the last restaurant... If you go thinking of a Korean izakaya, you're screwed. The tantanmen tasted like fried Jin Ramen with perilla oil, and who serves chicken cartilage with all the meat removed, just the cartilage? The crab gratin just tasted like crab shell with imitation crab mixed in and lots of sauce. I ordered a ton of other stuff too, but I asked them to throw it all away. Only locals come here, or maybe influencers coming for photos. Or maybe the food here suits their taste... it's crazy. Would you believe the last menu item is a 10,000 won wagyu ramen?! Aaaaaa really ㅜㅜ The reviews are completely polarizing—did the people who gave five stars never go to a Korean izakaya? At least the tako wasabi tasted like regular tako wasabi... I did go knowing it was cheap, but when traveling, you can eat cheap and delicious food a lot. Please, please don't go here; go buy 200 more banh mi instead 🩷

Average portions and the rice in the rolls is overcooked. Otherwise everything is great: taste, prices, atmosphere

Atmospheric, sometimes you have to stand in line to get a seat. The food didn't really suit me, but the place itself is beautiful.

I went there to drink beer, with no other purpose. I wanted a beer that wasn't bland, so before going to Hoi An. The beer was delicious. Most of the snacks were also delicious. It was past peak season, so other restaurants were quiet, but this one was crowded. Maybe because I went early, the dishes were served quickly.

This restaurant is really delicious. Two of us ordered 1 bacon salad, 1 curry egg rice, 1 ramen, 1 small sashimi set, and 1 mango roll (got 2 free drinks, unfortunately the restaurant doesn't have tea or non-carbonated soft drinks so we had to drink bottled water). We were very full, so you should skip one dish of rice or ramen to avoid being too full. The bill was about 41x thousand VND, I don't remember exactly, roughly 200k/person. The curry egg rice was very tasty and just right, the miso ramen was a bit salty, the mango avocado roll was sweet and interesting. The restaurant has many beautiful corners with an izakaya vibe. The staff say hello and goodbye in Japanese. You should visit for the experience if you travel to Da Nang 💘

We had a great Sunday evening in your restaurant. Thank you very much. Despite the fact that the room was full, we were able to sit down because we had reserved. Delicious dishes, very affordable prices, good cocktails, service...

The eatery is quite crowded, so everyone should book a table in advance. The food comes out quickly at times and very slowly at others. The place is also noisy, so remember to confirm your order carefully with the staff to avoid getting the wrong dish.

👉 Food: 6/10 Food quality is average. First time eating Yukke Salmon but they added mayonnaise, and no shoyu at all >> very strange, disgusting Curry rice dish: Vietnamese rice grains are firm, Japanese rice is completely different Grilled crab claws: only imitation crab sticks and cheese. No crab meat and shrimp roe. The texture of the dish is quite loose Seaweed salad: okay TanTanmen: okay 👉 Order of serving: Noodles > Rice > Crab claws > Salad > Salmon eggs. One ordered dish never came so I canceled (45'). Asked the restaurant for an explanation but it was quite unreasonable. ok 👉 Atmosphere: The restaurant is lively, crowded because I went on the weekend. However, the table next to me, two uncles and aunties and a young girl, were also very upset because all the orders were wrong 👉 Interior and exterior: Neat but a bit cramped.
