Seafood restaurant · District 1
Lúa Đại Việt
Live seafood at the Bùi Viện crossroads
A corner restaurant open around the clock at the walking-street gate — a bright yellow facade, pavement tables facing the street, live seafood tanks inside, and a four-language menu for guests from all over the world.
The tanks
Choose with your own eyes, eat with your own mouth
Spiny lobster, Cà Mau crab, blue swimmer crab, queen snails, red grouper — all alive in tanks inside the restaurant, for you to pick yourself before the kitchen cooks them your way.
1 · Choose at the tank
Lobster, crab, clams, snails — alive in the tanks, picked by you.
2 · Cooked your way
Steamed, grilled, fried, stir-fried or hotpot — cooked right after you choose.
3 · Eaten at the table
Eaten while still hot, in the middle of the never-sleeping walking street.
Pavement seats
Eat while watching the street
Pavement tables right on the walking street — from your table you look straight onto Bùi Viện, Saigon's busiest walking street, with street performers in front of you and the crowd growing livelier towards midnight.
