    This doesn't work, it's the locals who cook, not the Vietnamese. The rice is too salty and the noodles are too raw. The taste is only half-appreciated and difficult to swallow.

    We ordered Pho, Iced Caffe and Curry. I mean the foods taste is not bad. But we found more than 10 bugs in our curry, the waitress and chef deined the fact and we had to get some other customers to help us to judge. I mean the fact is so clear and at last they charged us only the drinks, but still, it is very gross to think back about this experience

    For Australian standard, price is slightly cheaper than my city Sydney, but taste not as good as the thai food we had in Australia. The red thai curry pretty watery , no rich curry paste flavour. My husbands fried beef noodles pretty good, but again very expensive for local standard. Two of us had two spring roll each, (ok), I had thai red curry ( a bit salty and watery),my husband had beef noodles pretty good but the price was too high for a noodle dish. We also had two mojito drinks, our bill is 201 bolivian money, for this price we can have very fancy western meal at restaurants around the plaza area ( popular restaurant, 1700, higher ground all pretty good and cheaper). If you want very good asian food, the restaurant 3 minutes walk call Zootopia are much cheaper and delicious. But I suppose not many vietnanese food in La Paz, so in this case the can charge high price for exotic food? Well, the point is I dont think it worth it

    Vietnamese restaurant with good dishes in a nice courtyard. Ate the Tai soup with shrimp and THiT VÀ RAU XÃO with chicken. The soup was OK, watery and not very varied in vegetables. Lots of shrimp instead. The rice dish was very tasty. As an entrada there is a small soup. Can recommend the restaurant.

    Having a variety of vegetarian dishes, I'm not one to experiment, but here I managed to enjoy a good vegetarian dish. I'm going to come back wanting more.

    It's the only Vietnamese in La Paz - and when you bear that in mind, it's okay! We went there, wanting a change from the heavier meat based meals we'd had in Bolivia. I guess, living in London, we're spoilt by the hundreds of great Vietnamese restaurants in our city. Compared to those, this was average. But to find in La Paz - a treat!

  • 4/5 Thanh Cong P. 5 years ago on Google
    Pretty decent pho tai lan (sauteed beef). The noodles were a bit undercooked and the beef overcooked but overall not bad. The broth was quite fatty but needed a bit more herbs and flavour. Chili sauce and lime helped. Friendly staff and delicious sweets with the bill.

    After 1.5 month in South America I really wanted some thing different from local cuisine, spring rolls here just made me physically feel happiness, so glad I found this place. We paid 200 for 2 with starters, mains and drinks. Average price of main was 65 bolivianos.

    If you want to try good Asian food, the restaurant Vinapho is an excellent place to eat. Despite being a small place, its atmosphere is well organized. Their dishes are prepared with great care, I tried Kung Pao chicken and it really tasted good, not only for its sweet and sour sauce, but also its rice. Its service was efficient and speedy, but the price for the dishes were a little expensive in my opinion, however, I would recommend it!

    Great Pad Thai! If you find yourself just getting into La Paz and are wondering where to eat, you might come across this place and say what the hell. I did and it was terrific!

    Good Vietnamese food in the centre of La Paz, with welcoming and friendly staff. Portions were of good size for the price and tasty!

  • 5/5 David Morel (. 5 years ago on Google
    It's good to see a decent Asian restaurant in La Paz. They serve amazing soup while you wait for your meal. And if you get lucky, you'll get an additional Chicken Satay ;). Their menu is a bit pricier than normal, but you get what you pay for. Food is excellent and ingredients are fresh, hygienic environment, and the service is great - even the chef takes orders sometimes. This is by far our favorite place to eat in La Paz. It has a very chill ambience, and their music is always spot on!

    Pros: Courtesy soup was welcome and tasty. Tasty spring/summer rolls. Nice terrace. Cons: Took 90 minutes to be served at lunch. Had to send pho back as was cool and tasted only of water. A main course for circa 65 BOB is expensive for the area.

  • 5/5 Barbora M. 9 months ago on Google
    Just amazing! From service to food and drinks, definitely worth a visit. We had KungPpao and vegetarian Pho - which was very good, green tea ice cream also very tasty, plus complementary soup. And the staff is very friendly and attentive. Finally a lemonade without a plastic straw! ;) We finished our dinner with Bolivian cocktails.

    The best Asian food in La Paz! Our favourite dishes are pad thai noodles, the soups and curries.

    Great Vietnamese food in town. Amazing staff. Good rolls. Green Thai curry was sooo good.

  • 5/5 Morgan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Fabulous experience. We love our Vietnamese food and this lived up to expectations. Service was timely, friendly and superb. Ordered a pho ga, spring rolls, and rice dish. All were delicious. We were also offered a complimentary light soup for starter. Very fair prices. I enjoyed their house red wine. Might not be “tipica” but sometimes you’re in the mood for something different after travelling for a while. So glad we stumbled upon this place. Cozy setting as well with nice music.

  • 2/5 PL T. 11 months ago on Google
    Went there because the Bolivian Restaurant upstairs was full. Extremely expensive. Phat Thai was way too sour. Nothing except the lemonade was worth the price. Staff was friendly.

  • 1/5 Joy N. 10 months ago on Google
    Overpriced. Not authentic. Little ingredient. Prawns were not fresh. Too salty.

  • 5/5 Ben P. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience, waiting staff were very attentive and it was really good food. We had spring rolls and kung pao, and they nailed the dishes. The restaurant only reopened in March following Covid, so don't let the lack of reviews for the last 2 years put you off!

  • 5/5 Sarumied x. 6 years ago on Google
    Delicious and fresh food . Authentic taste you can't beat. Great vegetarian options. I got the red curry with fried tofu. Mojito was delicious and made right with a little bit of sugar on the bottom. Definitely would recommend and come back !

👍 It has the best fried chicken in the city, it also has hamburgers. It has enough space, it is big, if you have children it has a section for them. It has drive in if you want to buy from your car, it has a few parking places, the rest will need to find a place outside to park.

👍👍 This place is amazing. Stumbled on it walking around near the Hostel. It's one of the best meals in Bolivia and for the whole trip overall. It's not that it's anything super fancy, or authentic it's just good. I had an amazing steak and the peach Frappe was huge! Then the icecream at the end was the...

👍 Probably the best roast chicken in town, extremely delicious and equilibrated flavor.

No WiFi no parkin...
