Tinh Gia Vien Restaurant

A few months ago, I had the chance to take a private cooking class at Tinh Gia Vien Restaurant in Vietnam, and it was absolutely amazing. The class was led by chef Phan Tôn Gia Hiền, and I even got to meet her mother, the owner and chef Tôn Nữ Thị Hà. These two are not just chefs; they're food artists. The adventure started with a trip to Dong Ba Market, where chef Hiền showed us all the different ingredients we'd be using later. It was super cool to learn about the unique ingredients and how they play into Vietnamese cooking. Once we got to the actual class, I was impressed by how professional and friendly the whole team was. Some of them spoke English, which was really helpful. Chef Hiền was incredibly patient and explained everything in detail, making it easy to follow along. Even if you’re not a pro in the kitchen, you'd be able to keep up. One of the best parts was learning how to decorate the dishes beautifully. Chef Hiền and her team taught us how to turn our food into stunning pieces of art. This is perfect if you love hosting and want to wow your guests with gorgeous meals. I highly recommend this cooking class at Tinh Gia Vien Restaurant. It’s a fantastic experience for anyone who loves cooking and wants to dive into Vietnamese food and culture. Plus, you'll get to learn from chefs who are truly passionate about their craft.

Great little cozy family restaurant. We ate on the patio area where there's stray cats roaming about and many old bonsai-like plants. The owner was very friendly and often joined us for conversation. The main attraction is of course, the food presentation. Many dishes are created to look like the Phoenix. Plates are "tapas" style and shared. Foods are easy to eat if you are not used to eating weird dishes in Vietnam. Definitely no need to shy away, nothing unusual. Overall, food was good and dining experience was very photo worthy.

My family and I had the pleasure of dinning at Tinh Gia Vien restaurant tonight. The atmosphere was peaceful and calm. We indulged in an 8 course meal that was delicious and beautifully presented. Will definitely recommend 5/5.

This was my second time at Tihn Gia Viên and it is always amazing - the food is a great and staff very friendly. Every time I am in Huey this is my favorite place for lunch. The garden and home are also very beautiful. I highly recommend you eat here for lunch or dinner, it will be one of the best dining experiences of your life :)

I came here with my wife and we had an excellent evening. The food is good but the presentation is a spectacle to behold. Yes this is a tourist experience but it is well worth it. The price is reasonable for the location and the attention we got was second to none.

Good for small family gatherings up to 20 people. The dishes are a little unique in design - dragon, bird shaped etc. The taste is just ok but most are not here for just the taste. A big minus would be the alley as cars barely fit and if there is 2 going opposite then chances are they would get stuck. Overall a nice family run place, would recommend.

Amazing food. Evert part of every dish is carefully put together, and unbelievably delicious! For centext, we were a party of 7 people.
