La Table Hoi An
Description
La Table Hoi An is a French fine dining restaurant run by Chef Pierre-Emmanuel, who has trained under serious names and cooks like it. The set menu with wine pairing is the move here – five courses that actually build on each other, with pairings that the team will adjust if you have preferences (they swapped out Prosecco without blinking).
The location sits beside the lake near the center of the old town, which means you get a quiet spot without sacrificing convenience. The room is comfortable and the service is attentive without being suffocating. This is where you go when you need a break from pho and banh mi and want something that takes the full evening.
