We had to sit at the back and off to one side we could have been anywhere. The wait staff were friendly and efficient. More

I found this food to be just so-so, I wasn't that impressed, street food is better. More

N10°1'59.56" E105°47'16.70" We went for lunch in September of 2010 to this travel guide favorite and therefore full of Lonely Planet travelers. Mekong is a Chinese restaurant with Vietnamese dishes in an English menu. Service is fast but not personal. Food is very tasteful, fresh and very cheap. Nowhere in Vietnam did we have a great lunch for less than... More
