Matildas Restobar

Restaurant Western restaurant

👍 I visited Matilda's twice, and, on both occasions, ate western food (which appears to be their specialty). It's a quiet place in a quiet part of Vũng Tàu to chat, relax, have a meal, and a few drinks. People often mention good, breakfast, restaurant, staff, Great, service, nice, burger, Nice, friendly,

    I went here recently for breakfast. There were two of us and we had the Big Breakfast and the American breakfast, both were great. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the place was comfortable with a good view of the street for people watching. My only criticism would be for the owners to invest in a real coffee machine, as the option of a cappuccino would have been perfect. However, that being said we will be back another time to enjoy the delicious breakfasts.

    Loved the atmosphere and proximity to the front beach. Great western food. Ownership has changed recently but the menu, service and food quality hasn't changed. There's a cute little hotel behind the place about a block down. Lotus Apartment Hotel.

    Nice and relaxed with friendly staff on hand. Breakfast is a must try when visiting this place. Seating area is comfortable with plenty of salty fresh air blowing in from the beach down the road.

    I'm not what you would call a big "burger person", but upon recommendation from the owner I tried the Bleu Cheese Burger for lunch and was thoroughly satisfied! My girlfriend had the Black Pepper Beef and that was also very good. But, to top everything off... My girlfriend left her ID at our hotel and we were in a rush, so the restaurant sent one of the security to the hotel to pick up her ID and deliver it so that we could enjoy our lunch. I love when businesses have attention to detail and customer service. Matilda's is one of those places. Highly recommended!!

  • 3/5 Wendy J. 4 years ago on Google
    We came here mainly for the high rating on Tripadvisor and a hankering for western food and ordered the fish and chips and a Yankee burger. Both were fine but nothing spectacular - pretty average, actually. Perhaps this is a good restaurant by Vung Tau standards but we didn't find it particularly impressive. The beverages were ice cold, though, and that was nice! Value was only fair - our meal, which also included two beverages, came out to about $15. I had reviewed this place on another site and the owner responded with the following: "You aren't always going to find the standards of home, wherever that may be. Didn't you think that having burgers and chips in ASIA was pretty special?" Had I been able to leave a response, I would have said that I've lived in Asia for the past 15 years and have had the pleasure of enjoying many restaurant meals that were "oh wow!" special. At least they admitted that their standards aren't those of home...

    It's an expat pub with simple food like sandwiches, fries, and no-frills breakfast. The only coffee they had was instant which was unfortunate. Both times I've visited I wasn't very impressed with food, atmosphere, or service. Overall, forgettable, but seems to be the local "Cheers" so they've been in business for a while.

    Ms. Linh and the new Chefs are doing a consistent job in creating new cuisine items such as smoked goose breast, steak, ribs, Norwegian salmon as well as deserts. The traditional items are still popular favourites as well from the various breakfast selections, burgers and the colossal club sandwich. Matilda’s also has increased its selection of Vietnamese dishes. The laid back atmosphere with pleasant jazz is the ideal combination for your visit! Great job, on holding the old and moving on with the new.

    The food and staff are the highlights of Matilda's. The breakfast was one of the best I've had in the year I've been in Vietnam. Unfortunately the regular patrons are not as enjoyable a sight. My wife felt it was a bit creepy that so many older men frequent it but obviously Matilda's needs to look after there bread and butter of regulars which I understand completely. I would not come back again though to be honest but it is a must as a stop for some good old fashioned home cooked food of you are visiting for a few days.

  • 4/5 Lauren M. 4 months ago on Google
    Found this place online for some lunch, me and my partner arrived by moped and we were greeted with such a rude comment while entering the restaurant. I only realised a while after what this Australian middle aged man actually said to my partner, that he should find a skinny girlfriend.. because we didn’t use the ramp to park the bike so I hopped off. I really hope this man isn’t the owner or has any sort of connection with this restaurant because it’s completely unacceptable to speak to a young woman like this. My whole experience was ruined because of this, but hopefully he was just a rude customer, nothing the restaurant can do about this. The worker that served us was really smiley and our food was tasty.

    Not only they served spoiled whipped cream but they also didn’t take any blame for it. Instead they replied to my comment saying that I ate a half of the meal 😮 which is totally crazy And nobody ever apologised for what happened, not even once!!! Like it is normal and nothing really special to serve spoiled dairy products in a restaurant!!! I’m so shocked 😳 Dear restaurant owner and their manager please review rules and responsibilities that apply to hospitality organisations like restaurants as food producers. Make sure you strictly follow up on freshness of your food and keep your kitchen under strict monitoring! What if I had food poisoning from that? And the only you have to say is that I ate the food? And the customer is someone who you should blame? P.S. 1. I didn’t eat half of the cream. I called the waitress immediately after tasting the cream, from the first spoon. 2. I ate fruits that were around 3. I cut only 1/12 of the pancakes and tasted it. That’s all. 4. I expected you 1. apologise, 2. Ask me what I want to have instead or what you can do to make up for serving spoiled dairy 3. At least bring me new set of pancakes

    Decent western food options at a reasonable price. Service is prompt and the street is quiet. An overall decent option when wanting some familiar food options abroad. Recommend for breakfast/brunch.

  • 5/5 Sebloo 1 year ago on Google
    Came in here for lunch and was very surprised with the menu. Wide selection specifically burgers. I went the Aussie burger and was satisfied. Good portion sizes - cold beer on tap and situation on nice little side street. Will be back!

  • 4/5 Anthony J. 1 year ago on Google
    The food here was alright. I ordered a burger with specifications and it came not as ordered, but I ate it anyway and it was nice enough, maybe the meat had a bit too much onion mixed in as it was a little soggy. My partner ordered the chicken parm and said it was nice mostly but some of the chicken wasn’t the nicest texture, the pasta/salad that came with this was nice though, and the chips with the burger were delicious, like British home chips.

    are these 5 star reviews paid? i came here after hearing great reviews but boy was i dissatisfied . i saw few tables with customers when i arrived most only drank beer very few ordered food i have driven by this place many times never seen the restaurant with full of customers usually it’s empty . but i gave it a try we ordered the matilda burger , bbq ribs , buffalo wings , seafood fried rice. the burger was dry and had no special sauce or anything why name a burger matilda burger when all it was bun, bread , beef patties and bacon . not flavorful or anything special no sauce at all . the fried rice was plain . the buffalo wings tasted like most buffaloes wings . then comes the bbq ribs it was so dry and tastes worst then my home bbq cooking. mind you i can not cook good . it tastes like they just added salt and pepper then added heinz bbq sauce as their secret sauce . i told the waitress the bbq ribs were bad and dry . she just took my food and said she well tell the cook about it but didnt offer to change my ribs or anything. i will never comeback here again

    Really good short ribs. I ordered schnitzel, but received short ribs 😆. Doesn’t matter because they were delicious too. Their choice was good. Maybe they are a bit too sweet, but still very tasty. Staff is very friendly

    This place is a bit far from the main road. So when I visited, I felt comfortable and calm. Nice food & reasonable price. If you are not gourmand, please consider about portions. It’s big .

    First time back, under new owners. Very impressed. The 'waiter' on duty was fantastic in welcoming, assisting, service, friendliness, and farewell. We'll definitely make Matildas our go to restaurant as it was last extended stay. Menu expanded, old favourites still there:) Whomever this splendid young gent is, he has a big future. Fri 16 June 2023 In addition; we've been back several times for late breakfast and had take away. Fantastic. THANH is the gentleman of which I spoke, now we've gotten to know him. WHAT AN ABSOLUTE GEM OF A MAN. My other half has issues with her vision. Thanh instinctively noticed this: he insists upon leading her safely from the restaurant, down the steps and even put her motorbike helmet on and secured. ( I normally do this, but I'm not about to interrupt a genuinely caring fellow). Matildas have a black beer, PARTNER. A 1000ml bottle is only 80K and served in an ice bucket. Seriously, Matildas goes from strength to strength in service, quality, decency, kindness.....there aren't enough words. You won't be disappointed. 24 Jun 24

    Lovely staff but the grilled sea bass wasn’t good :-( felt like a Chinese fried fish instead of a grilled sea bass. Side veggies were good though. Probably their dishes are better :)

  • 5/5 Veggie S. 4 months ago on Google
    Matilda's has the most extensive vegetarian menu in Vung Tau, without going to a vegetarian only restaurant. It has been surprisingly difficult to find vegetarian options in the plethora of restaurants aimed at the many foreigners here. Not only were there lots of veggie options but they helpfully consolidated all the vegetarian options in a vegetarian section of the menu. There was even a vegetarian special on the specials board (which was delicious) - a creamy eggplant, mushroom and pesto spaghetti 🤤. Everyone working at the restaurant was lovely and the service was great. The stubby holders to keep your beer cool were a nice touch too. The chicken parmy was apparently good too 🙂

    My wife and I have been here several times for breakfast and it has been excellent every time. The western style fried breakfast and eggs Benedict are spot on, Asian dishes are delicious as well, wonton soup especially delicious. Very reasonable pricing and huge portion sizes. Friendly and attentive staff. Would highly recommend.
