The atmosphere was nice and quaint, but that was where the good part ended. The staff couldn't speak a word of English, but that wasn't a big problem, for me food is king when going out and of the 7-8 main courses we ordered only one which was good. Small prawns were not pealed, pork was all fat & skin,... More

We cannot praise this place high enough! If you want authentic, fresh Vietnamese dishes presented in a rustic way, matching the surrounds, this place is a must. Set in a traditional barnyard area, next to a rice paddy and a lotus pond, do not expect fine dining, but a sliver of insight into Vietnamese rural life.Sitting on low benches around... More

Our trip to Nha Trang Xua restaurant was one of the highlights of our trip. It's not far from the beach - only 7 km and a $5 AUD or USD cab ride. The taxi driver will also wait for you to drive you back. We had some great dishes including a pork and shrimp salad, beef cooked in bamboo,... More

Having read other trip advisor reports we visited here. We loved the more basic feel and countryside views of this local restaurant. Food was very good , presented beautifully, and tasted lovely. Huge menu written in English, although I believe they have a cheaper local menu. The beer was only served slightly chilled with a glass of ice. It would... More

Little trip outside hectic Nha Trang centre to the beautiful countryside often considered as real 'Vietnam'. Fantastic view of the paddy fields and the lotus plants from the restaurant. Whilst scrolling through the hand-written menu, we wasn't expecting nothing special however we were pleasantly suprised! Food arrived quickly, it was very well presented and definitely exicited my taste buds! I... More

We followed our taxi driver to look for a real Vietnamese food at a less touristic area and we found this. Yes, it doesn't look like five star restaurant or cafe' but if you really love the feeling, this is a place for you. The staffs were so friendly with smiles and always ready to help. This is something very... More

If you want to get out of the tourist area in Nha Trang, go here. It is famous restaurant among the local people, and the taxi drivers know the way to get there. You can also go there by motorbike since it is not that far away. The staff is helpful, and they have the menu also in English. The... More

About 6 kms from central Nha Trang, Nha Trang Xua is an interesting local restaurant situated overlooking paddy fields. Specializing in Vietnamese cuisine, it has the normal Asian relaxed and casual atmosphere. The pomelo salad and crispy fried prawn pancake with vinegar dip is really good. Uniquely Vietnamese and to the area, the grilled rice paper with sesame seeds is... More

Get out of yiur resort trap and hotel and breathe country air on the edge of the city at this Vietnamese style restaurant. The old Vietnamese buildings have character and style. The place is a lot more interesting than boring western area shop type restaurants. It's like being in a Vietnamese village on the edge of ricefields and lotus ponds.
