I had a fish on chilli and lemmongrass sauce and it was simply fantastic!!!!! The taste was perfect: spicy enough to enjoy it and feel all the flavours. Also drinks were very good, the mango shake was awesome! Totally recommend!

Was recommended by friends, and glad we went. Food was lovely, service and atmosphere also very good. Not big, so suggest you prebook as we did. It was very busy all night-which is the best recommendation.

I had the cheese platter which came with a selection of 4 French cheeses and a stick of French bread. I ordered the half plate actually which was plenty big enough for just me. I would say the normal plate would be great for two sharing as it comes with 2 glasses of wine Coming from a land if decent... More

We had a lovely meal and thoroughly enjoyed the short time we spent there. It was very quite so our food came too quickly but would recommend this place. Was clean and good value.

Not to be confused with les jardins de la carambole, so be sure your taxi driver has it right. This was an excellent place to eat, on a street full of bars for drinking later on. The food was excellent, good sized portions, all at reasonable prices, and wine isn't too expensive here. We over ordered the food, which could... More

Just another great place to eat in Hue. The food was fantastic, the service good and the price was similar to all the rest in that area, very reasonable. Would certainly eat there again.

La Carambole has a distinct atmosphere, and serves good quality food. I was very happy to go to this restaurant, for its food as well its service. Food presentation is normal, but everything i tried it was great!
