Description

This is a family-run riverside spot serving Vietnamese home cooking, with pho bo that’s among the best broth in Hoi An – rich, deep, and simmered properly rather than rushed. It suits families, couples, and solo diners who want a proper sit-down meal at local prices, right on the water with an open-air breeze that makes even June heat bearable.

Order the pho bo, the bun cha, the pancakes, or ask if boiled duck is on for lunch that day. A coconut coffee runs around 45k VND, fried wontons about 65k, pork rice about 90k, and a full meal for four typically lands under 500k VND total. The owner and her family run the floor themselves, bringing dishes and setting tables, and the menu covers both one-dish orders and larger family-style spreads.

This beats most riverside restaurants in Hoi An on both price and flavor, since waterfront spots usually mark up hard and cut corners on the broth. Go for lunch or early dinner to catch the duck special and grab a river-view table before the breeze dies down in the evening heat. Skip it only if you want fine-dining plating – this is home cooking done right, not a show.
