A roof-top restaurant serving excellent Vietnamese food, try the soft-shelled crab, it's my favorite. Has a bird-eye view of Nguyen Hue and Le Loi streets, the best part of the restaurant. Might need to make reservation if you're a large group as it often gets full.

Offers upscale Vietnamese food. They are known for their many types of fresh spring rolls. I love their Pho because they use Australian beef and the portions are large. Next door is Au Parc with Mediterranean inspired food. The food is really good ad the place is always filled with expats and locals.

Another interesting place for homemade Vietnamese food. Don't go here during lunch because it's quite hot. Go in the late afternoon for the Saigon breeze.

Artsy coffee shop near Ben Thanh Market and famous shopping street Dong Khoi. It's quite pricey but you can walk in for an orange juice :) Le Loi is on the first level so get a seat on the balcony and observe one of Saigon's most famous and busiest streets.
