Quán Bà Tám - Phú Yên quán mắt cá ngừ siêu ngon — Restaurant in Tuy Hòa City

A well-known restaurant in Tuy Hòa specializing in local tuna dishes. It’s an open-air eatery with plastic tables on the sidewalk, offering a typical Vietnamese local dining experience. Diners should be aware that hygiene standards are in line with local norms, which may not be for everyone. The menu features a wide variety of tuna preparations, but notably lacks price listings.

The tuna sashimi (Cá Ngừ Đại Dương + Mù Tạt (Nhỏ) / 70K) might disappoint those expecting Japanese quality. It is served semi-frozen and thinly sliced, lacking the rich flavor of fresh tuna.

Very popular, so the restaurant is crowded, visitors here sometimes do not have tables and chairs to dine. Many service staff but still cannot meet the number of visitors at peak hours. The environment was very oppressive to come here. Reasonable...

The food was alright, nothing too special.

Our group thought that the Tuna & Wasabi dish was with fresh tuna, so imagine our surprise when it came out frozen, and the staff told us to "give it some time for it to thaw off". And the Stir-fried noodles with Seafood dish was basically a rip-off. You can get the same portion of food, with similar or higher quality in Saigon (which is a much more expensive city to live in, mind you) at half the price (said dish was 120k).

The place was also very crowded, but I'm guessing that is because the restaurant itself pays tour guides a small commission fee to bring tourists to their place so that's...
