This is a well-established chicken rice spot in Ho Chi Minh City. Among the Japanese community, it’s long been famous for its Mapo Tofu, though it’s more like "minced meat with tofu" rather than the spicy version most Japanese expect. It’s delicious in its own right, as long as you know what to expect! When it comes to the chicken rice, you can have fun mixing your own sauces at the condiment station. They also offer a wide variety of Chinese herbal soups. These are very approachable even for those unfamiliar with them, and since they are minimally salted, you can season them to your own liking.

Very noisy. Staff was unfriendly and unprofessional. They messed up orders,were rude and loud. Food was alright,and a little overpriced. One single plate of chicken rice cost ~100k while the rice is neithee soft,fragrant nor shiny as expected for chicken rice

- Spacious space, quick service, supportive staff. - Good portion, tender chicken meat. - They have self-service counter which include: sauces e.g. pork rib sauce, ginger sauce, soya, garlic, etc. - Must try: cơm gà luộc (boiled chicken rice), canh cải xoong táo mật tiềm bắp heo (watercress, honey jujube & pork shank) How to eat like local: soya sauce or orange ginger sauce. But for me i prefer soya sauce within a bit garlic and vinegar.

The service was friendly. The Dongyuan chicken was tender and delicious, the char siu was a bit dry, and the roast pork was tender but not tough. All the ingredients were fresh and delicious, making it a great dish to eat with rice

I got here by friend’s recommendation for famous chicken rice and soups. We order a chicken rice / char xiu set and 1 lotus soup, and stew pork (thịt kho trứng), stir fried veg. The steam rice: not soft enough. The sauce is mixed with jelly powder is very minus. Char xiu is dry. Seems it is out for long time. The soup is seems not cook enough time. The stir fried veg is missing oyster sauce and it is not well cooked. The stew Pork is a bit too sweet and also not cook well. The rice is not the good rice. So total experience was bad!

Definitely recommend it if you like chicken rice . Rice smell pretty good and tasty . You have to order mapro tofu . That goes with the rice so well . Soup is delicious . Fried Spinach is tasty . We order a combo for two people the portion is huge for two girls but we get to eat cha xíu and steam chicken . Its awesome.to have lunch here with friends

Tasty set meal vibe, got 3 soups in one go. Great value, quality stays solid.

Very good chicken and food in general. Service was fast paced and enjoyed the food overall.
