What travelers say:
A street barbecue with a lot of atmosphere. In the hot weather, the small charcoal stove was sizzling as the meat was grilled, and the fan was blowing. The only thing that could relieve the stuffiness was ice beer. The environment was a bit poor, but the hygiene was okay, the atmosphere was lively enough, and it was a store worth experiencing.

We ordered octopus, chicken wings, beef, shrimp, and 3 cups of coke, totaling 704,000, about 205 RMB. The taste was OK. For a coastal city, seafood was not a big surprise. It was a bit hot in the open air with only a few fans. Everyone must check the quantity of drinks and dishes.
Highly recommended! The best meal of this trip, I will never forget it. The oyster porridge is great, the marinated shrimp tastes great! The beef is just average, but the local Saigon beer is so good, I ordered it almost every meal.
This barbecue spot is located in District 1 in the center of Ho Chi Minh City. It is one of the first choice places for locals to dine together. It is very lively. In addition to their signature beef, there are also kangaroo meat, ostrich meat and frogs. The meat is marinated very well, and it is very delicious when eaten with special chili sauce after being grilled. Grilling meat, smoking, sweating, chatting, and drinking cold beer are refreshing. Raw meat and seafood are all priced at 135,000 Vietnamese dong per plate (about RMB 40), and small bottles of beer range from 21,000 to 30,000 (about RMB 6-9). Tips from expert Vincious: This is a mobile barbecue restaurant, so they don’t have a storefront decoration, and the sign is just a yellow poster on the wall. About every six months, they will rent another vacant land and move there to operate, so if you want to know the current exact address, please check their Facebook.
The atmosphere of the food stall is very lively. The service of the waiter is not always available, but it is still quite active. Because I ordered three barbecued meats, there was a small stove in the middle of the table. There are two kinds of barbecue sauces, one is sweet soy sauce, and the other is green, which I have never tasted in China. It has a little mint and local spices, and the taste is very unique. The taste of beef is salty and sweet, and it is actually tasty enough without dipping sauce. The prawns are also very fresh. The sauce of water spinach is not shrimp paste, but the taste is not bad at all. It's a pity that this restaurant only has vegetable stems and no leaves.
The place was very hard to find because the navigation was completely wrong. I ended up taking a detour and wasting time. I was really angry when I got to the restaurant. Fortunately, the food was really good. The oysters were big and fresh. Just sprinkle some lemon juice on them. It was amazing.
