Blue Wave Restaurant & Cafe Hoi An
Description
Blue Wave sits directly across from Hoi An Beach Resort, which tells you the clientele: beach-goers who want good food without trekking back into the old town. It punches well above its beachside-cafe weight, particularly for fresh seafood and Vietnamese classics like cao lau.
The menu covers more ground than you’d expect – pizza and burgers sit alongside proper Vietnamese dishes and banana pancakes. That sounds like a warning sign, but the freshness of ingredients keeps everything honest. The staff remember faces and apparently remember birthdays too.
