At first, the place looks really cosy and stylish but unfortunately there went so many things wrong.
There is one young guy who perfectly speaks English and has everything under control. If his shift is over the others are completely lost..
Kitchen takes way too much time.
We ordered the steak and a peperoni pizza. Steak came without mixed Salat as a side dish (as mentioned in the menu), on the pizza was every thing except Peperoni. If you want to confront them, see 1)
After dinner we ordered two gin tonic. It was such a small Glas I think they forgot the gin... again you have the language problem see 1)
Way to expensive for what you get.
Staff is unfriendly and incompetent.
They closed earlier and excepted new guests without telling them that they're closing soon.
I know vietnam is different and you can't compare it to western standards. But this restaurant is quite expensive for vietnam conditions, so I think you can expect a certain level of quality which is, unfortunately, not given...
Read moreStumbled on this place randomly and so happy we did. ‘Downtown’ is pretty boring and this spot is like water in a barren desert of nothing. It’s pretty cute and ‘hip’ inside. They menu was relatively large and it had a number of interesting sounding vegetarian meals.

My partner got a Vietnamese cappuccino and I got a smoothie with mango, yogurt, baileys, and some other things.

The creme brûlée was honestly fantastic - one of the best either of us has ever had. Not too sweet, nice ginger...
Read moreIt seem here is the only place in Con Dao island where I could find my favorite Americano coffee. This cafe shop had moved to the new place not too far from the previous location. Just right behind the main market. Larger house but seem to be a problem for arrangement. Much better if the owner puts more random tables and chairs in different styles and colors rather than just a boring repeated seats. Smarter if they could arrange an area with air-cont so people can feel more comfortable in the hot season or somebody who love working with laptop, there is plenty of space to do this. Price should be down a bit to capture local guest in quiet tourist season, 2 dollars for one small size Americano is two times expensive than what I will pay for in downtown of Sai Gon city....
