Popular and bustling with great food BEFORE they went on an ambitious expansion. Now just disappointing .
Good news: 4 beautiful courts, in a gorgeous setting. Bad news: Booking a court is frustrating. Playing is worse. Foreigners pay 2-3 times more via ballboy staff-at a SaigonTourist park?
9 uncovered courts. Foreigners/tourists should book & pay for courts in the tiny office under the dance hall. Rates are posted. Ballboys will happily collect the fees, but often 2-3X more.
Historic & great spot. Good afternoon availability. It's all downhill from there. Poorly maintained, poorly managed. Ballboys own this place. Pity really, it could be a truly great place to play.
Maybe it's the overstuffed chairs, the antiques, the coziness, the charm, or the calm; but this is a sweet place. Very, intimate.
A spacious, sprawling, modern motorbike museum restaurant. Quite nice, the food and service are good. Situated on the canal front. Must be 100 classic motorbikes on display.
Step back in time. A glorious turn of the century French Vila, with lovely lush outdoor garden. Simply gorgeous on one of these lovely Saigon evenings. Serene and intimate dining. Deserves attention.
A hip, upscale spa-resort. About 80 modern villas, each with private garden/pool. Very well appointed. Wonderful staff. A favorite in DaNang-HoiAn
Indochine atmosphere, great food, quite reasonable. Often bustling, a good dinner time spot for my new-to-Vietnam clients & friends.
Gorgeous, luxurious, tranquil boutique hotel on the river in Q2/ThaoDien. Lovely upscale dining under the stars on the rivers edge.
Two things draw a crowd: consistently good food, and good value. This spot has both.
One of the top 5 tennis venues in HCMC. Tennis with 7 uncovered courts.well maintained and managed. Abundance of skilled players. Adjacent gym, pool, restaurant.
An institution. in business since 1956. Wide;y imitated by name and menu, even abroad. But it's legendary fast food, Saigon style, and great.
An institution of sorts in the edge of Thu Duc's beautiful Binh To ward. Sizzling beefsteak platters on the quick and cheap. Imitated far and wide, but none have ever come close to the value, or buzz.
Ky Hoa II, to be precise. 6 covered &2 open courts, 2 practice walls. Always a good playing facility, one of Saigon's top 5. Better yet after recent remodeling. Daytime availability has improved.
Tabletop BBQ. Xien Que's taken root on this little street. Ban Than isn't the biggest, but it's the liveliest of all. Packs 'em in night after night. Join the party.
