Hanoi Restaurant Recommendations from our Experts
Authentic and Economical: Bun Cha Nem Cua Be Dac Kim
67 Duong Thanh Street , Hanoi
This simple, authentic restaurant is popular with visitors and locals alike. Literally the best place to try the traditional Hanoi speciality – Bun Cha (noodles with grilled pork), it also offers various other local dishes including Pho. The perfect introduction to the world of Hanoi street food.
Mid-range: Home Hanoi
34 Châu Long, Trúc Bạch, Ba Đình, Hanoi
Located in a French Colonial mansion at the Old Quarter, this is a welcome oasis of peace amid a bustling neighborhood. We recommend reserving a table in the garden for dinner, where you can enjoy superb Vietnamese cuisine under colorful lanters with live music to keep you company. Try the Cha Ca (fried fish) and the banana flower salad, and you’ll be delighted!
High-end: Press Club Hanoi
12 Lý Đạo Thành, French Quarter, Hoàn Kiếm, Hanoi
French Colonialism has had as much influence on Vietnam’s history as it’s cuisine. It’s no wonder then that Hanoi is teeming with French restaurants. The Press Club is by the far the best, with chef Alain Dutournier boasting two Michelin stars! Feast on a fabulous tasting menu, naturally paired with some of the world’s best wine.

Enchanting Travels made our trip entirely stress free and easy. This meant we were able to enjoy the beauty of Vietnam and Cambodia. All our guides, drivers, hotel staff, and trip coordinators were so so wonderful and a pleasure to interact with- Can’t speak highly enough about this company.

Enchanting Travels exquisitely prepared our excursion from top-to-bottom based on our initial discussions regarding our desires for our trip. From cities, sites, tours, hotels, & activities, we were immersed in our favorite style of travel: get involved in activities [culinary class, organic farming, yes – and of course care of the elephants], great knowledgeable guides, local food tasting as one priority, and trying different modes of local transport [from car, boat, bicycle, Cyclo-cross, Tuk-Tuk, Long Boat, gondola, canoe, Vespa scooter, and even a bamboo raft]. The hotels were specifically selected for their local style, and the sites were all well represented and included off-the-beaten path historical and natural treasures. The oversight of our trip via the App as well as 24/7 coordinator involvement made it totally hassle-free.

Enchanting Travels and their staff put together a trip of a lifetime. We hadn’t traveled to Asia before and were nervous about what to expect or how to navigate once we were there. We also really didn’t know what we wanted to do other than a few expectations. We went to four countries with multiple hotels, flights and boat excursions. I cannot believe that the 5 week trip went off with out any hitches! Everything was so smooth and effortless. We did not worry about anything the whole time we were there. It was comforting to know that our trip coordinator was there for us if we needed her and she certainly responded quickly if we did have a need or question. The choices for hotels that Enchanting Travels recommended were superb and the guides and driver were knowledgeable and fun. I can not speak more highly of all of their services and plan on using them again for another big trip.

We had a wonderful tour of Vietnam. Our itinerary was very thoughtfully organized with great attention to detail. Many of the activities suggested were excellent and the logistics are all handled crispy. We really appreciate the custom aspects of Enchanting’s itineraries. Having one on one time with very knowledgeable guides is indispensable. From the moment we arrived in Hanoi airport to the minute we left Saigon we were treated royally. Excellent service
