I had a wonderful dining experience at Secret Garden Restaurant. The service was top-notch, with staff who spoke English and made me feel right at home. The open-air atmosphere added a charming touch, allowing me to enjoy the fresh air while savoring the delicious food. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxing meal, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to eat!

Good ambience and a good place for a relaxing meal. This is quite a touristy destination and the prices of the food reflect that, it was quite pricey at 700k+ for two people. There's quite a climb to the rooftop with no elevator access too, so you'd have to earn your dinner with a workout beforehand, and you'd get to burn off some of your meal by walking back down.

Honestly I am surprised here. This was recommend by almost everybody I spoke to. But the food I had lacks flavor. And American prices.
Beautiful atmosphere tho. Stunning restaurant and truly a hidden beautiful spot.
But every fish I had just kinda made me not want to eat anymore. In a city with such amazing food. This place just made me sad. Maybe the chefs had an off day. I dunno

Nice little rooftop hide out. Obviously prices here tend to be a little higher since it's catered for a mostly tourist clientele, but that doesn't detract from the fact Secret Garden does serve pretty decent "home cooked" Vietnamese cuisine.
We ordered 3 dishes.. for 2pax. An appetiser that came w crackers and fried claims. Yummy.
Pumpkin fish stew of sorts... It was a bit sweet, probably due to the seasoning and the pumpkin itself. But nonetheless, a hearty dish, although the portion of fish could be more generous.
The third dish was a lemongrass soup with shellfish /snail with stuffed minced pork and snail.. Sounds exortic but it's really delicious! ❤️
This restaurant probably has better ambience at night but we were near the area in the day, so we didn't get t to enjoy the romantic ambience. Still, with a retractable roof, you get shelter from the sun when you come here in the afternoon.
All in all, it was a good experience to dine here and we had a good lunch.

We came here for lunch, guess the night view is better and chilling too! Ordered 16 dishes, we have 5 guys in total! The local cuisine is good! Do note: there is no lift, must climb up to the fifth floor by stairs.

Definitely a must go restaurant ! Loved the concept of it . A secret bar or like a speak easy vibe 😍
A totally insta worthy spot. The food was extremely delicious!
The climb up 4 staircases was definitely worth it for the ambiance that awaits at the roof top . Though I had my concerns when I first saw the entrance and the dodge vibe it gave off. However, this is must visit restaurant in Hochi Minh city . Would completely recommend this experience.

Really love this restaurant in the middle of district 1 of Ho Chi Minh City. Fourth time visiting the restaurant and it never disappoints. Ah wait, only disappointment I had here is that they ran out of Tonkin flowers this time and we had to get kang kong instead. Really recommend you try the Tonkin flower dish when you are here. Do note it's not wheelchair or elderly friendly in the sense it's is six floors up without lifts. But once you ascend to this secret venue, the food is definitely worth it! Try their various rolls and meats. Service here is also very quick.
Meal for family of 5 here with drinks cost us around $80. highly recommend!

The atmosphere is nice and lively with lots of tourists. The service was friendly and attentive. The food had a neutral taste and the fried rice was a bit dry. Overall, it was a decent experience, but the food could use more flavor.
