Vietnom Local Eatery — Restaurant in Đà Nẵng

This has been my FAVORITE restaurant in such a long time! The moment we walked in we were a little skeptical because of how many white tourists there were (we are white tourists ourselves but have only ate local until this point). We are so glad we stuck it out and ate here.

As someone who learned ASL in college I was floored that a majority of the staff were deaf as it is something I have never seen in any country besides the United States. It truly made my heart feel full. Let’s all just take a moment to thank the staff for all the hard work they do, as a hospo worker myself I understand how hard it can be and I am sure it is more difficult for those who cannot hear. I really enjoyed signing with the staff the entire night, it felt so much more personal than any other restaurant I’ve ever been to.

Okay let’s get to the food…the food was a perfect blend of Vietnamese and western style I’ve ever come across. Everything on the menu sounded great so we had hard time choosing. But once we narrowed it down and the food came to our table we knew we were in for a delightful night.

We had the Mi Quang Tron, Banh Hoi, and the Pork Boager, as well as the sweet potato fires. My personal favorite was the Boager - I have never had anything like it and would go back just for this (I would also probably eat like five of them). My partner really enjoyed the Min Quang and said it was one of his favorite Vietnamese dishes. We both thought the Banh Hoi were phenomenal and a great sharing dish.

We tried two different desserts, the churros (which were our favorite of the two) and the Grilled Banana Ice Cream (also good!).

I had a banana and peanut butter milkshake (for me personally could have had more peanut butter, but still amazing as the banana flavor was strong, which I look for).

Over all 1000/10. We want to go back. We want this place in Australia/around the world. This group has truly done an amazing job and cannot recommend it enough.

Thank you so much to the staff and the chefs and just everyone involved. We appreciate you and the...

Vietnom has always been one of my go-to restaurants in Da Nang. I ate here regularly last year and since returning this month, I’ve been coming back 2–3 times a week, mostly for their Pho San. Unfortunately, today’s experience was extremely disappointing and has completely changed how I feel about this place.

I arrived a little after 3 PM and ordered a Pho San. After waiting several minutes, my food still hadn’t arrived. Another customer who sat down after me received her Pho San almost immediately. At first, I thought she might have pre-ordered, so I continued to wait. After following up, I was told it takes 10 minutes to cook. I patiently waited longer, but after 20 more minutes, my food still wasn’t there. Meanwhile, the other customer had already finished eating and was preparing to leave.

Eventually, I was told the staff mistakenly gave my order to her. The manager even went to her table, apologized, explained their mistake, and offered her 50% off—even though I was the one who had been waiting almost 40 minutes without food. I didn’t appreciate that the apology and compensation went to her, not to me. My meal finally arrived at 3:52 PM.

They did not charge me for my food and offered drinks as compensation, but the lack of communication, responsibility, and fairness overshadowed all of my previous good experiences here. I would have gladly paid if things were handled properly. Sadly, after today, I won’t be...

This is hands down one of the best restaurants we experienced during our Vietnam trip. They offer a wide variety of delicious food and drinks to satisfy any craving. The place itself is beautifully decorated, clean, and exudes a calm, welcoming vibe. What really stood out to us was the lack of music. After being constantly overstimulated by loud noises, music from the streets, and busy restaurants or bars, this quiet environment felt like such a relief. It was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy amazing food in peace. The service here is exceptional. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional. You order via a QR code, so there’s no need to talk much, and everything is very well-organized. If you do need assistance, the staff speak English very well, so there’s nothing to worry about. One thing to note is that some of the staff have hearing disabilities and communicate with each other in sign language, which we found absolutely heartwarming and inspiring. It’s rare to see such inclusive hiring practices in Vietnam, and it made the experience even more special. This in no way impacted the quality of service—in fact, it made it even better. We already miss this place and highly recommend it to anyone visiting. Don’t miss out on this hidden gem—you’ll love it just as...
