Ben Nghe Street Food

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ben Nghe Street Food Market Review I really enjoyed my visit to Ben Nghe Food Market! There’s such a great variety of food to choose from — everything from Vietnamese classics like phở and grilled seafood to international options like tacos, burgers, and curries. It’s the perfect spot if you like trying a bit of everything in one place. The atmosphere is lively and fun, with music, a good crowd, and a modern setup that still keeps a casual street-food vibe. It can get a little busy, but that just adds to the energy. Prices are quite reasonable, especially considering how clean and organized the place is. You might pay a bit more than at local street stalls, but it’s worth it for the variety and convenience. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this place if you want to experience Ho Chi Minh City’s street-food culture in a comfortable and vibrant setting. I’d rate it 5/5 — great food, great vibe, great value!

The atmosphere was amazing! So many representations of Vietnamese and Asian culture foods here. Open late so you can get some food all night long. Would like to commend the live band that was playing on Saturday night. The singer was absolutely belting out the sounds and was really impressive. The food speaks for itself. Well seasoned and great portions. I had the Banh Mi, Banh xeo, strawberry smoothie and the beef pho rolls. If you come here and you have allergies to food. Make your best judgement as they say they have gluten in everything but I’m not sure they full understand what gluten is.

I had a blast in this street food market! The general vibe of the people working here was way better than other places and the food was genuinely good. There was even some nice live music to make things even better. I suggest you to try a small portion of many stands so you can enjoy many of them!

Before you smirk and say it's a tourist trap, let me attempt to stick my neck out. I came to Ben Nghe for one thing and one thing only. Two words, xoi chien. Banh Cuon's xoi chien is the only one within walking distance from my hotel and I simply had to have xo chien the moment I arrived. Imagine this. Sticky rice fried till golden and crispy. For all of you who love the burnt rice at the bottom of claypot chicken rice, this is the bees knees ! Wait, that's not all. Imagine a savory filling of minced pork, chives and a quail egg to tickle your fancy. My only regret is that I could only fit one piece. I mean, definitely worth the risk to life and limb to cross a busy HCM street just to taste it!! Now that you've gotten over your hang up about tourist traps, there's other stuff also lah. I'm a sucker for dry noodles and I thought the Bun Tron Bo at the Wrap and Roll stall was pretty decent too. This is a dish that is colorful both in terms of visual perspective and texture. You have the softness of the noodle and the crunch of the peanut and cucumber, texture wise. Make sure to toss the the ingredients together to reveal a kaleidescope of color. The light oily dressing coats the whole ensemble with a balanced mixture of sweet, savory ,sour and spicy. Taste explosion! If you're not sure what you feel like eating, it's always better to go to a place with plenty of options and let your eyes do the decision making. That's what makes this place work. This has all the trappings of a tourists trap so my neck is exposed. It's got a guy who offers a napkin after you finish your meal. Everything is well sign posted. Dishes are cleared ASAP. One final word. There's a certain little quirkiness to this place. See photos ...

This street food market is a gem! It’s clean and offers a fantastic variety of food options, including Thai, Indian, and Vietnamese cuisines, plus a range of drinks. We tried some traditional Vietnamese dishes this time, which were decent but not outstanding. The highlight was the coconut ice cream—absolutely delicious, though a bit pricey at 120k. Overall, a great spot for diverse and tasty street food!

My wife and I had a great time at this food hall. The variety of foods offered was wonderful, and it was really nice to pick several dishes from different vendors. Everything was freshly cooked and tasty. Very budget friendly. One the Tuesday night that we ate there it was easy to find a table, and there was a very good live band singing pop hits. Great vibe! We plan on going back to eat there again.

Lots of seating and def a more tourist spot but seems safe to eat at and the food is good, just expect to pay more as it’s a tourist spot. There are staff cleaning and clearing tables quickly and provide you with cutlery. Very clean building with lots of extra seating upstairs but the breeze is downstairs by the front area.

One of the many street food market in the area, row of food booths / stalls around with different selection in snacks, main course, drinks, dessert. seating and cover for the client to comfortably enjoying their food. it's an open area so don't expect AC while you are there. staff are all around to help on clearing the garbage so that another client may utilize the seating as soon as the previous ones are done with their meals
