Mai Chau No.9 Bistro — Restaurant in Hoà Bình province

I have really mixed feelings about this place. The fact is that it looks lovely and the staff was very charming and even gave us a free shot. However, there were also negative aspects. I get it that it is a concept to not have one menu and change it up overtime, but it would be nice if there was atleast some information about what we are ordering. After the confusion, we ordered some set which we had no idea what its gonna be. Then the first huge problem came, we waited for the food a very long time, definitely 45-60 mins. I know you have to wait long for good food but I think you should let the people know before ordering it as we had a really long day and wanted to eat something quickly. Then the food started to come in, some spring rolls, veggies, tofus and they were really AMAZING. But the thing is, I paid 200k so I have chicken and beef. The meat came and it was kinda bland and not a huge portion. We definitely were stuffed after the dinner but because of all the rice, tofu and spring rolls, the meat portion was very tiny. I just expected way more meat for 200k so I was kind of disappointed.

So my tips for this establishment would be : have atleast some paper or whiteboard where you can see what you can order to avoid confusion if possible, bigger meat portions as we paid extra not for a lot of spring rolls but more meat let customers know its gonna take a longer time, if we had the time and were not that hungry we wouldnt have mind, but we were really hungry

To sum up, the place looked nice, the staff was amazing just the waiting time, confusion and meat portion was a let down, so thats why i...

I was lucky to discover this wonderful restaurant in Mai Chau and it turned out to be one of the best culinary experiences of my trip! From the moment you step inside, you can feel the warm and welcoming atmosphere, carefully designed with great attention to detail.

The concept is truly unique: The menu offers a simple yet refined selection of dishes—either vegetarian or with meat—available in three different portion sizes.

The flavors were absolutely delicious and well-balanced!
