BỜM - Kitchen & Wine Bar

Emceerichardstyle Mic Rating 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤 My dinner was truly an outstanding gastronomical experience. I was blown away by how the menu blends modern Vietnamese flavors with subtle European influences—every dish felt both creative and comforting. The ambiance was chic and intimate, making it a perfect spot for a special night out. I also really appreciated how attentive and knowledgeable the staff were, which made the whole evening even more enjoyable. For the quality and creativity, I felt the value was excellent. I highly recommend Bom to anyone looking for a memorable culinary journey in Saigon!

The dishes are so interesting. The flavor is so unique. Every dish should be tried. Staff is really nice and careful. Some more dishes we want to try but we’re so full. It’s a bit noisy in the evening, although not too crowed. Maybe be cause the space is closed behind the glasses. I think they can add some ambient sound so that it can be less uncomfortable. I’ll definitely be back to try the shrimp spaghetti.

Wow. I mean wow. The food was spectacular. Best was the tuna tataki- so special, the duck was superb, and the pork wrapped in leaves. All dishes were great. Also the service was the best we got in Vietnam, and the wine was really good. I can’t recommend this place more.

I am very impressed by the valet at the restaurant entrance when I first arrived. The food is superb! I ordered the duck spring roll, potato chips, kamquat pork & brownie. The chips is not oily and the pork is tender! I enjoyed my meal very much. The only downside is my seat near the 1st floor entrance. Is stuffy & hot. Overall, I will come back for the food.

This is the second visit to Bom’s restaurant on a rainy Monday evening. Walk-in was accepted and they sat us at a table right by the glass wall overlooking the street with a very nice view. Nice ambiance. Nice and courteous staff. We ordered 2 different set menus as we want to cover most of the food selection there this time. Most of the appetizers were good with interesting flavors. The Nhatrang snails( i didn’t remember the correct name of the dish) was the exact copy of the French’s escargot. The disappointment came in with the entree. Advertised as A4 wagyu, the steak was bland, chewy with no fat at all. I have never tasted any A4 wagyu like this in my life, it’s more like local beef. Was they misleading? Then came the dry aged duck. The duck meat could be more juicy, & flavor. It was also bland and dry, the dish left no memories at all. My wife didn’t even want to finish it. Deserts were a bit pull back. But not enough to make us think we should come back here again. When telling the waiter about the foods, no replacement nor compensation was offered. I understand this is not a common practice in Vietnam. But for a fine dining restaurant whose price ranges and target customers might not be for the locals, something needs to change seriously for this restaurant to reach the next step.

Went on Valentine’s Day so it was busier than usual and lots of menu items sold out, so probably didn’t get a chance to try the top dishes like the bo kho tart or soy-braised short ribs. Generally interesting, modern take on vietnamese dishes. I’d say it’s worth a trip in general but no particular dishes I’d say I’d crave in the future. Standout dish was the tomato tartare. Review on food below: Tomato tartare - great texture, fresh salsa-verde like sauce, quite well seasoned with a vietnamese grain cracker 4/5 (great) Romaine and Salsa Salad - fresh sweet salad but don’t like the chopped almond, dressing is decent 3.5/5 (good) Mini Pho Wagyu burgers - great hoisin sauce infused with star anise to dip the burger in, side of a traditional pho toppings 4/5 (great) Potato chips - with a mayo with peanuts and paprika mayo 3.5/5 (good) Shrimp wonton - served with fish / shrimp bisque but wonton kind of meh 2.5/5 (average) Betel leaf wrap - fun and decent bite with grilled pork skewers inside and a nice fruity sauce 3.8/5 (nice) Tom Rim Spaghetti - fantastic tomato-ish shrimp-based with cinnamon or star anise, nice al dente noodle 4/5 (great) Kumquat pork - same marinade as the betel leaf pork, kumquat sauce was ok and sides were also ok 3/5 (average)

BỜM - Kitchen & Wine Bar is one of the most disappointing restaurants I've ever tried. The service and atmosphere were excellent but the food and presentation were below my expectations. The short rib was too sweet, the slider was too small, and the seafood medley was overcooked and had an unpleasant flavor. This restaurant was very disappointing for a place that has received a Michelin Plate award for the past two years.

It was really cool! Food and service was good. It has multiple floors and nice scenery. Waiters are kind and helpful. Recommend!😁
