Vạn Chài Marina 15 Ngô Thì Nhậm — Restaurant in Hà Nội

Let me tell you about the service we experienced. Our waiter was truly something special. He went above and beyond, starting with a simple but thoughtful gesture: he warned us about water on the floor. Then, when it came time to leave, he literally stopped traffic twice to ensure we got back to our transport on time. And just when we thought it couldn’t get better, he gave us this incredibly friendly salute, almost like a military officer, a sign of respect and attention that made us feel truly valued. It’s one of those moments you look back on and just cherish. Everything he did reflected genuine care.

Now, onto the food. It was fine. Not something to write home about, but solid enough. The atmosphere? Comfortable, nothing spectacular, but cozy. But honestly, it was the service that stole the show.

This waiter wasn’t just serving food. He was practically a mind reader. Every time we were about to reach for our tea cups, he was there, no asking needed. It felt like he had some kind of telepathic connection with us. I started to wonder if he had a hidden camera in the corner of the room, because I’ve never been served tea so swiftly and without a single word exchanged. By the end of the meal, I was convinced he had a bottomless tea supply hidden in his apron.

The food? Good. The atmosphere? Pleasant. But the service? Unbeatable. Five stars, easily. If this waiter isn’t secretly a wizard, he should be. His name is Nam Anh. Someone needs to promote him to server boss, because this kind of service is something to be celebrated.

Needless to say, the local tour agency announced will blacklist the restaurant in the near future.

The menu taste and quality wise, were much better however. Shame, because the menu nowhere being horrible like...

The worst meal we had in Hanoi, by far. We were part of a tour group, and had a preset meal.

It was so bad that half the group left and walked over to Bun Cha Obama nearby for a...
