Highway4 Bar Restaurant

The place wasn't busy on Saturday dinner time. In fact we were the only one downstairs when we got there, the place was slowly filled in with diners later. All the staffs were enthusiastic and welcoming. Staffs were happy to recommend as the menu items were special and you don't see them at any other restaurants. We ordered a few items like Smoked Buffalo and Sauteed Frogs but we did not regret. All in all it was a good dining experience.

Worst dining experience since I came to Vietnam. I did a lot of research on Michelin restaurants and finally decided to give this one a go, however extremely disappointed since entering: - dishes are bland even with dipping sauce. Honestly, my mom can cook better than them - there was a group of around 10 people in the same space which made it super noisy. I know this is not the restaurant’s fault but it was really annoying. It was like an uncle was drunk and talked super loud - it’s first time that when I eat in a restaurant, all the waiters/waitresses are sitting next to me chilling and playing video out loud. And all of them have no facial expressions. When we call them, they just shockingly looked at us, no smile at all. Does the restaurant even train their staff??? And because all of them wear flip-flops, there is sound that flip-floppers flap ground when they walk. I do not expect this in a Michelin-starred restaurant. - the only good stuff is the SonTinh rice wine. We order the apricot-flavoured one and it’s really nice Michelin better take off the star from this restaurant, otherwise I won’t trust Michelin anymore 🤣

They are famous for serving the most award winning Vietnamese rice liquor on earth in various flavors (SonTinh). I tasted the apricot flavored SonTinh and don't get it all all why this brand got internationally awarded. Maybe the 12/8 years aged versions are more convincing. The northern Vietnamese tapas/dishes on the menu, and used ingredients are of very good quality. They do also offer some wild stuff like snake, and grasshoppers. Besides mountain pork, sun dried deer, seafood, catfish summer rolls with dill & wasabi, fried sweet potatoes, salads etc. Herbs and greens are of top quality. Unfortunately it is impossible to test all the tempting choices on the menu in one visit. There is a spacious room for groups in the second floor. Beware that many classics on the menu are partly deep fried. My today’s favorite was a delicious broth with green leaves, a touch of crab meat, and marinated baby eggplants. Nice atmosphere, solid interior, good service, clean. Price per person for a full meal (2-5 combos) ~ 120K-500K Dong. Michelin listed 2023/2024.

Very nice different dishes. We tried crickets, pork belly, crab soup, spring rolls, morning glory and fried rice. All very nice. Friendly service and nice setting at the long tables on the first floor. Michelin or no Michelin, recommended.

This is a great spot for those looking to have an upscale meal on a budget. We had the Catfish spring rolls, hotpot, frog, beers and more. This place had great music, service and is the perfect spot to be an adventurous eater.

The food was great, with out favorite being thw breaded fried mushrooms. The service was also great. I wouldncomenback I'm a heartbeat.

Michelin selected 2024. I love both salad we ordered and the ginger tea is good too. Staff is friendly and they have wifi

Spectacular food, price is a bit premium but it matches quality and decor very well. Honestly very confused by other reviews complaining about flavor 😔. Maybe people don't know what good Asian food tastes like? We had: Passion fruit shrimp -> best shrimp I ever had Sauted bamboo shoots -> fresh; delicate; delicious Fried tofu -> soft crispy outside, well flavored The interior is also lovely, especially up stairs Japanese style sitting section.
