The Soul Restaurant
Description
The Soul Restaurant sits inside the Rivertown Hoi An hotel and pulls double duty as a breakfast spot that actually earns its place. The pho is the real deal, the egg dishes are executed well (benedicts, omelettes, scrambled – they cover the full range), and the yogurt sitting in the showcase by the drinks bar is worth grabbing before someone else does.
The staff here are the main reason people come back. Ms. Lan gets mentioned by name repeatedly, which tells you everything about the level of personal attention you’re getting. Water stays full, recommendations are genuine, nobody hovers.
Vietnamese coffee is non-negotiable – order it.
