    One of my favorite place suitable to visit all times during the day (sometimes I visit several times a day) In the morning, it offers a very nice zen like coffee experience with open space and lots of greenery (and great coffee). During lunch time, the place is buzzing with activities, excellent for business meetings as the tables are set far apart to allow you privacy for any sensitive business discussions. The food arrives quickly and very suitable for business partners. At night: excellent date place or get together with friends for great atmosphere and cocktails. Food and deserts are always great, very consistent and always with an interesting twist. You should def try the famous Water Melon Cake. The Cocktails are made by the same team behind Layla and Summer experiment, so the drinks always top notch. Highly recommended.

    They have many options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We went there for lunch and they have lunch sets which were nice and reasonably ok. We have ordered stir beef rice with broccoli and chicken burger. After the meal we tasted the tiramisu and it was ok.

    - Atmosphere: Great, very chill vibe during the day and even better at night time - Staff: very friendly staff. They try to respond to you as fast as they can. Always there when you need them but never too close to feel like they’re stalking you - Food: Much much better than the first few months that they opened. Food is less salty, good balance between flavors, and most importantly very creative. Hat’s off to the chef Sơn. - Drinks: Alcohol is good, coffee is good. Others are overpriced as usual (don’t expect to drink a 20k coke here) Overall: If you feel like working in a cafe in the morning or like to enjoy yourself a date at night. This is it. Good for couples or tables up to 5 (any more and you get to sit in those uncomfortable high chairs). Not even a bit, they ARE pricey, but worth the time to come here and treat urself. Will come back everytime for the pasta and coffee.

    Did you guys see that Koi Pond? It’s pretty neat. Makes your food taste more zen knowing Koi pond sexy = food will be sexy. Had a hot date didn’t know where to take her for lunch. This was recommended by a friend. Great place to take a date for business lunch. Took her home afterwards. Might have been the help of great ambience and delicious food to put her in the mood. She didn’t want to go anywhere else except my place afterwards. I didn’t even have to buy her any alcohol this time. Taxi driver was a bit confused dropping us off but lucky for us we have google maps to navigate fearlessly through the congested streets of sunny Saigon. Exploring through this massive building was giving me dejavu vibes, and not the strip club back in California. I’ve stumbled through these elevators before. Rooftop bar upstairs!!! Dao House. This hidden gem CTY was located just behind the elevators 🛗 of the building. Decor was warm welcoming upscale clean open space plenty of seating. The lighting was well placed and photos of the food turned out amazing. The winner was the chicken and rice. Good portion of juicy chicken and mouth watering sauce was served with enough greens on the side. Meal came with a drink so you are not thirsty from the sizzle Saigon weather. Service is what you would expect from a fancy establishment. We were greeted and seated immediately with menus in hand. Servers came to us after we took our sweet time studying the menu like it was a subject of our midterm college exam. Food so good my date paid for our meal and booked the fastest taxi service available to get us back to my place. Things got hot and heavy when we got back to my bedroom maybe because A/C was not on. Clothes quickly came off since she was needy for another load of laundry. My Wife was happy she didn’t have to do the dishes. Overall highly recommended for lunch date.

    one of the best outdoor brunch in saigon! love this space with so many green spots, it is so spacious, airy which gives you such a relax atmosphere. food was better the last time i visited :( the focaccia was not fully toasted and a bit dry. also if you’re a fan of watermelon cake, this is the place to go! they have pretty good lunch set for 259k++, which you can have a drink + mains + dessert!

    I went here a couple of times, and this time i wasn't impressed. 🟢 Great batter for the barramundi, crunchy and light. The tartar obviously went well with the fish 🟢 Nice decor, outdoor area also available with a small pond in the middle. 🔴 The vibe was totally ruined by the loud rap with heavy bass background music. A classical jazzy instrumental playlist would be better suited for a fine dining experience or a chill lounge. 🔴 I don't know why people on social media went crazy for the watermelon cake. It was sweet but the taste was similar to artificial sweetener, not pleasant for the palette at all. The mango cake was average at best 🟡 The duck was very juicy, however the flavour was quite bland with a sweet coulis on the side. I was expecting something funky and punchy for a dry-aged dish

    New fusion restaurant in a hidden alleyway, Italian + Japanese. Tried a pasta dish, my friend had the milk bread sandwich. Both were tasty, a little overpriced as expected for the type of locale but you get what you pay for. Menu has a larger selection of mix drinks than expected. Good for business lunch. Book in advance as it can get busy.

    CTY is one of my favorite places in Saigon. it also now has Vietnamese food which helps a lot with having my family come too. You can come for a happy happy or a coffee any day of the week.

    Great high quality food, brunch was amazing. For dinner, some items on the menu can be on the rich side in terms of flavor balance, for example the duck soba for example was quite rich. Great to accompany some drinks though.

    The best happy hour in Saigon. Cocktails go for it. Dinner options are great. It’s open all day too so you can go for coffee and lunch too.

    Visiting my friend in Vietnam, she insisted on showing me this one restaurant. I gotta say, it beat my expectations by a mile. The main course was fantastic but the dessert.... the dessert really put them over the top. Everything was very well prepared, the staff was very attentive and they took time to explain what in them and how the chefs prepared it. Definitely exceed my expectations!! Love it.

    Went to an event about Start-ups and Venture Capitals. The place is very nice, Though, there was no AC and it was a really hot day. The food buffet we got was uneven. Some really good stuff like their skewers, or the watermelon cake! Some others were underseasoned and dry, like the burger sliders we got (no sauce in it). Service was perfect. Nothing to say. Attentive and friendly. A very enjoyable time! Will come back to try their regular menu.

    The food was delicious! There weren't many options, and portion was a bit small for its pricing. Great place for girls night out, just grabbing a bite and a drink, however wouldn't recommend it when you have a big group of friends and looking for big portions to share. Atmosphere and décor is good though :)

    Whether it’s for dating, friends gathering or simply spending quality time alone, CTY meets all of your demands. Cozy, casual, quality food and drinks. Staffs are so attentive, esp Hung bartender making me always feel welcomed here. Also make sure that you don’t miss their dessert section! You will never feel disappointed at all, or should I say, “satisfaction” is the correct word to express the feeling.

    My new regular space in Saigon! You might be surprises as you found out such a perfect ambiance for all occasions in an office building. Nice cocktail and great food goes with very reasonable price. There’s new amazing art work drawing the day I visited. Cant wait for the next visit when it’s completed!

    Greasy but good! Get the Chicken Katsu Sando if you’re ready to get your hands dirty, cause it’s one messy meal. But it’s crispy, juicy, a bit sweet and has a nice acidity. Fries were crispy, but over-salted. Staff is really friendly and the place itself is beautiful. A lot of shade in the afternoon for a cool place for a filling lunch. 🍽 Chicken Katsu Sando (+ make it a meal with drink and fries) 💰155K + 75K 🙋🏼‍♀️ @foooooodsaigon for more

    Bar restaurant located behind the lobby of Centec tower. There’s happy hour, food is served til 9pm, after 9pm there’s only bite snack. The vibe is great with spacious outdoor area and tables inside. Convenient for groups to hangout of private event.

    Hidden gem at the corner of an office building away from the busy streets. Nice and intimate ambiance at the patio seats, surrounded by lush foliage plants. Staff were all very welcoming, shoutout to Finn for giving insights into the local restaurant scene! Highly recommend the garlic mushroom risotto.

    I visit HCMC every year over Christmas and this was our first time to CTY Kitchen. Let me tell you, you will NOT be disappointed at thia place. Not only was the food amazing but the drinks are just as good. The service was second to none!! I’ve been to so many places in HCMC where the food is good but the service wasn’t. CTY has it ALL!! I ordered the steak and eggs dish with patê with the pomelo/grapefruit drink. Beef is not on my priority list in Vietnam due to lack of quality but this steak was GOOD!!!! US quality good!!! The drink was very refreshing and perfect to drink in a hot and humid city, just what was needed to satisfy my thirst. I’ll definitely be coming back to this place next year when I visit again. If you’re wondering where to go for any occasion, this is the place. We had a group of over 20 people and they sat us down quick and was very attentive to our every need. Good staff!!

    Loved it here. Staff were always on hand when needed and super friendly. I don’t eat meat so asked if I could change chicken pesto pasta to salmon and they happily done it. We also got the ribeye steak which my partner thoroughly enjoyed at a very good price. Atmosphere is lovely here and drinks are good too! Highly recommend.

    CTY Kitchen and Bar is a fantastic dining experience that truly stands out in the city. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance is warm and inviting, with a stylish decor that sets the stage for a memorable meal. The menu is innovative, offering a wonderful mix of flavors that cater to both adventurous foodies and those who prefer classic dishes. Every dish I've tried has been delicious, beautifully presented, and made with high-quality ingredients. The staff is friendly and attentive, making sure every part of our visit was enjoyable. The bar also deserves a mention for its creative cocktails and impressive selection of wines. Whether it's a casual dinner, a special occasion, or just drinks with friends, CTY Kitchen and Bar has become my go-to spot. Highly recommend!

    Went here for brunch on a Sunday and the atmosphere, ambiance, drinks, and food was amazing. The restaurant looked great from the tables to the bar. It had a mix of Vietnamese and Western food on the menu. The service was very accommodating, friendly and classy. If you want scrambled eggs then this is the place to get it. I don’t think anywhere else in the city gives you the option, it’s always sunny side up or Ốp La. The chef recommended the Salmon Benedict and it was flavorable and enjoyable. We also got the black pepper stir fry and it tasted like sizzling beef that you would find in the US and would eat again. We also had the grilled steak focaccia sandwich and it tasted amazing like a hamburger minus the grease and mess. As you’re waiting for your food, the drinks are ALL delicious from the Brazilian Lemonade, Brazilian Coconut Lemonade, Iced Pandan Latte and the Vietnamese coffee. If you’re in the city then CTY kitchen is a must try!

    Very good value for Money. Nice location, nice deco. Atmosphere suits more evening cocktail and light dinner rather than lunch, but the Lunch Formula still worths it.

  • 5/5 Tom L. 5 months ago on Google
    Definitely one of the best restaurants in District 1 where you can find great blends of authentic food, lovely atmosphere and inspiring people! Under the unbearable heat of Saigon, there's such a relaxing place like CTY to dine, work, or just pull out your favorite books and read!

  • 5/5 Terry T. 9 months ago on Google
    My wife and I loved the food, ambiance and service. Our waitress was very professional and attentive. I had teriyaki beef with mushrooms and asparagus and my wife had the mushroom risotto. Our waitresse's name was Tien. She was very knowledgeable and friendly.

  • 5/5 Djung T. 2 years ago on Google
    Great spot for cocktails and drinks with groups of friends. Sharing plates are easy and affordable. Check out their art work in the back patio garden. It's best for evenings but it is open all day. Don't miss the oyster happy hour too!

  • 4/5 Linh Trần T. 1 year ago on Google
    The food were served pretty quick, good drink. Staffs are nice and friendly but they missed one of my order- the watermelon cake that goes viral. The manager prevent their staffs from trying to help me withdraw 50k from my credit card (in order to pay the parking fee). Yes I understand that you have some rule to follow, but please don't shout at ur staffs in front of ur customer when he just tried to be nice and helpful :)

    Came for coffee, ended up having breakfast when I heared the carrot cake calling my name. Everything was stellar. Atmosphere here is well suited for business meetings or casual lunch. Love the vibes.

    Calvin is the real deal. A passionate guy that cares about community building, esp between Vietnamese folks. The food is excellent and extremely diverse. The bite size portions make me mouth watering. He also is infusing his particular taste to make sure all guests are welcomed and have a wondering dining experience. This place is extremely clean as well. Please check it out!
