Ran Bien 8 — Restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City

An Unforgettable Feast of King Crab Perfection

Dining at Rạn Biển 8 in Saigon was nothing short of extraordinary. I splurged on a $400 king crab, and every penny felt worth it. From the moment I walked in, the lively, bustling atmosphere set the tone for an authentic and memorable seafood experience.

The king crab was a masterpiece. Fresh, sweet, and impossibly succulent, it was prepared to absolute perfection. The staff guided me through the process of selecting the crab and offered expert recommendations on how it should be cooked. I chose a combination of steamed and chili garlic stir-fry — and let me tell you, the flavors were mind-blowing. The natural sweetness of the crab paired beautifully with the bold, fragrant spices, creating a balance that made each bite unforgettable.

The service was impeccable too. Despite the busy restaurant, the staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and made me feel like royalty — fitting for a meal centered around king crab!

Rạn Biển 8 is more than just a restaurant; it’s an experience. If you’re in Saigon and looking for an indulgent seafood feast, this is the place to go. Expensive? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely. Treat yourself — you...

A great place to have amazing sea food. The unique thing in Vietnam is the fish is always kept alive in tanks and they make it fresh after you select. Hence the sea food is extremely fresh and tasty. The variety is simply amazing and the quality and taste incredible. The restaurant is quite huge and with many seating outside. It was super hot and humid and very sweaty, other than that...

Food is awesome with various types of sea food but very expensive.

Went there after seeing crowd(simple rule for food ;). Ordered some delicious dishes and it was delicious. Service was good. But after seeing bill, I got stunned :D Why I am saying high because I know many places with better sea food and less rates. Anyway if you don't care about money, then good...
