Ngon Vietnamese Kitchen

We came here for our anniversary dinner and this is not your “traditional” everyday Vietnamese restaurant (but they do have traditional favorites like Pho); this is TOP notch dining (they definitely earned their Bib Gourmand rating). The service and food were exceptional. We had the Papaya salad, Shaking tenderloin and the Chilean Sea Bass (this dish melts in your mouth). We also shared a Vietnamese Egg Coffee for dessert.

The Shrimp Cà Ri (vietnamese curry) was amazing. The flavors of the curry felt like they exploded in my mouth. The medium spice level was just right for it to be enjoyable and not overwhelming at all. The flavor resembles a lot of what I know of the Thai curry flavor profile - it's spicy but also sweet on the undertone. The curry is pretty thin, so it makes for a less satisfying combo when eating over rice but man that sauce flavor overlooks any of the other shortcomings it might've had. The butterfly pea flower rice was pretty with a blue hue but texturally it's not my favorite since it's too moist and fluffy for my personal preference. Still, an amazing dish nonetheless - 9/10 The interior atmosphere is also super cute, but this seems to be reflected in the overall pricing of the menu. Generally it is a bit more expensive than other Thai restaurants. I would love to try more dishes from this place sometime in the future!

We were in Hà Nội two months ago for the first time and really enjoyed the food. Our expectations for the flavors we experienced there may have been a little high. While we enjoyed Ngon, we were not exactly blown away. Solid 4 stars though, maybe we’ll just have to go back to Vietnam again ☺️

From the outside the place looks small but the inside was spacious. The decor was very nice and cozy. We ordered blue rice, shrimp fried rice and chicken curry. All were very tasty and the serving size was enough for us. The spice in the curry was enough and not overwhelming. Overall our expeience was positive but would have been better if they had wifi since they already have a guest wifi but they don't give out the password.

The food was great! The coffee martini was also good. I ordered the imperial rolls 3 times because they kept on forgetting to place the order. We had a reservation, there were 4 empty tables but they made us wait, then took a family without a reservation due to their life complaining.
