Avoid at all costs. They refuse Apple Pay unless they can take a video of you paying - which could be used to defraud. They will not let you pay contactless by your credit card or debit card - you can pay by PIN only in their machine, which in Vietnam is also a common source of fraud. They initially demanded to hold onto my credit card when I had to go to the ATM - which is yet ANOTHER way you could be defrauded in Vietnam (or at least have to wait weeks in the mail for your bank to replace a compromised card).
Absolutely none of these payment “policies” are disclosed anywhere in advance.
The cocktail I ordered did not appear to use any of the traditional ingredients or high quality ingredients, despite the relatively high price. The (otherwise, clearly kind and well-meaning) male bartender had also apparently been trained to try and get me to order a drink the minute I sat down. There was no time to relax or enjoy anything. Then, the minute I ordered this relatively mediocre and (for Vietnam) pricey drink, the same bartender was apparently also trained to immediately insist I pay immediately. How is anyone going to enjoy themselves in a bar like this?
Someone tells you where to sit as soon as you walk in, so socializing with other customers is not a natural or easy to do thing either.
The bar was mostly empty. The main highlight were the go-go dancers, which was not obviously not a complete novelty, but cool to see in Nha Trang.
The female bartender who “speaks English” also unfortunately gave me one of the sketchiest vibes I have ever encountered in months of being in Vietnam. Speaking to her, it really felt like in making these “special” payment requests, the bar was up to no good. Of course, I cannot know for sure.
The owner may be having a good time running this bar, but as a customer I cannot recommend you come here unless these issues dramatically change.
In the end, I felt very unsafe coming here - I felt...
Read moreMy friend has been here a few times and the day 5th, Feb, 2025,he was so drunk when he got there,and he was charged 3 times for £98 each time, without any receipt??? a few days later we went to ask about the receipt and couldn't find any receipt for £98, and they said the payment information wasn't theirs, but there was no receipt from the bar on the payment history either (one thing for sure my friend always uses his visa card everywhere, and doesn't use cash), so the bar gave him free drinks that night?? When we came to find out, the Vietnamese woman who was said to be the bar owner's wife was very enthusiastic in helping, but when the bar owner, a Swiss man like a "gangster" spoke impolitely to us, while we only needed to check the camera again, we would know the truth because there were many cameras inside the bar, but he did not cooperate and even chased us away while we were having drinks at the bar😅. That proves that he knew about the fraud?! We also went to Loc Tho Ward Police to report the incident. I hope that anyone who intends to go to "" Nha Bar "" thinks and is carefully. -Do not pay by cards. -Do not go there when you drunk -Have to triple check bill. -Do not be like my friend. BUT HOPEFULLY NO ONE GO THERE.
The deceitfulness of the gangster bar owner... First, the woman he said was drunk, she never drank alcohol. Second, she used to be the Manager of a restaurant many times larger than the "bar" in Ho Chi Minh City.
She knew how to handle this situation so she just asked to review the camera on the day the incident happened, but the gangster bar owner aggressively chased the customers away as if he knew what happened at the bar that night?? In short, not only will my friend never come to this bar, but no one will come again, because the bar's name is on every website...
Read moreIncredible place. Went there on a Monday night, alone. They threw a party even though the space was pretty quiet, like if it was the last weekend of the year. It got pretty busy later on. Even the staff is having a great time and take care of everyone's comfort. Doesn't matter how much you spend, they want you to have a great time. I've rarely ever seen that, especially in that sort of venue. Price wise, the menu isn't hard to find. Prices are clearly displayed, and they aren't pushing it.
I saw the few reviews from disappointed visitors, thought I would check it out myself. I didn't spot any cleanliness concern, and I stayed there all night right at the bar watching staff making drinks. Even the toilets were spotless. Chairs, bartop, floor, even the terrace. Stunningly clean.
Perhaps they revamped their practice. My other guess is that you act like a jerk, you get treated as such. What should they do, give you a huge smile ask you to come back? As a result the crowd there were fun guests to be around.
People from all over the world hit that place, and everyone seems to feel right at home.
Oh, and they did throw the dancers. Top notch pros, they themselves were having a blast and don't make that dead fish face, even if you don't tip them. They are the 99.9 prettiest girls if that's what...
