Si Dining Restaurant

“A truly memorable dining experience. Every dish was beautifully presented like a work of art, with incredible attention to detail and clear passion from the chef. The flavors were well balanced, ingredients tasted fresh, and from appetizers to desserts, everything was impressive and thoughtfully crafted. Just one small suggestion: I think the owner should consider adding more lighting at the front entrance where the elderly security guard stands. My husband and I arrived around 7:30 PM, and I honestly got a little startled because under the tree, in the dark, I suddenly noticed a silver-haired man standing there. I even rubbed my eyes twice before realizing he was smiling at me. It turned into a funny memory, but better lighting would definitely make guests feel more comfortable upon arrival. After dinner, we left completely satisfied. The flavors were rich and well rounded, with a beautiful fusion of Western cuisine and Vietnamese vegetables. I really like this place. The service here is even more refined than some high-end restaurants. Often when staff serve Asian guests, they don’t always introduce the dishes, but here the F&B team was extremely professional, attentive, and confident in explaining every course. The atmosphere is cool and relaxing, and the background music made the entire evening feel comfortable and enjoyable. Food: 100/100 Service: 100/100 The surrounding area is quiet, with convenient car parking available. Prices are reasonable and not overly expensive for the quality you receive. Tip: Make a reservation in advance to ensure the most attentive service. We will definitely be coming back.”

“Generous, tasty amuse bouche. Expertly prepared Italian dishes using local ingredients. Good cocktails, also paying homage to local artisans. The ravioli sauce was so good, I asked for a slice of sourdough to finish. Thank goodness they brought two slices bc it was an unbelievably light, airy, crispy delight. They kindly helped me order a fresh loaf from their Em Bakery in Hoi An for next-day delivery. Wine list has amazing scope, including Czech and Lebanese wines. Shout-out for the sparkling clean RIEDEL Winewings stemware. Desserts were sublime. Chef-owner's family background of bakers is also evident in the ethereal millefoglie, each crispy bite fragrant with rich butter. A gracious gentleman opened our car door upon arrival, then lovely young staff greeted us at the door and proceed to take excellent, warm care of us. Elegant new enclosed space with AC and cozy mood lighting. Though a pity that we didn't get to meet busy Chef Alessio, grazie to all for a wonderful experience!”

“Exceptional Culinary Artistry with Minor Room for Improvement Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) I recently visited this Michelin Italian restaurant in Da Nang to celebrate a birthday, and the experience was largely impressive, though there were a few inconsistencies. 1. Ambience & Service The atmosphere is incredibly quiet, cozy, and sophisticated—perfect for a special occasion. The service was exceptionally attentive. Since I do not eat raw food, the staff went above and beyond by helping me adjust the menu and carefully inquiring about my specific dietary restrictions. They were so observant that when I accidentally dropped my napkin, a fresh one was provided almost instantly. Knowing it was a birthday celebration, they surprised us with a delicious Napoleon cake with a lovely message written on the plate. The Head Chef also personally came to our table to check on the food quality. However, I was quite confused by one thing: we were told not to use flash photography, yet I noticed other guests using flash at least three times without being stopped. It felt a bit inconsistent that we were the only ones restricted. 2. Food Quality As it was our first visit, I opted for the signature tasting menu. Overall, I was extremely satisfied. The starter were a highlight, and the Wagyu beefwas seared to perfection—exactly the doneness I requested. My only minor critique is that the **fish course** was slightly overcooked, though still flavorful. 3. Wine Pairing This was the part I found most underwhelming. We ordered the 6-glass wine pairing. While the first glass of Champagne was a perfect match, the remaining five wines didn't quite hit the mark for me. The staff was professional enough to notice my lack of enthusiasm and offered to swap them for other alcoholic options, but even those were just "okay." At this price point, I expected a more inspired selection. It felt like a waste of nearly four glasses of alcohol, which didn't feel like great value for money. Final Verdict The prices are on the higher side for Da Nang, but the food and the level of service (minus the flash photography confusion) are top-tier. If they can refine their wine pairings to match the excellence of their kitchen, this would be a flawless experience. I would still highly recommend it for the food alone!”

“Delicious fine dining experience with attentive waiters and chef Alessio who comes out personally to check on the customers and make conversation. Presentation of the entrees was lovely and the desserts were to die for. Prices very reasonable given we are not locals. Their moscato on offer was light, refreshing, and sweet while not being too overbearing. The mille foglie was the most delicious desert I've had in a while. I could honestly eat a metre by metre squared of it. Recommend this restaurant highly for both food and service.”

“We visited for Valentine’s Day with high expectations, especially given the Michelin Selected status. Overall, the experience was pleasant enough, but unfortunately not memorable enough for us to return. We began with the oyster, abalone and snail salad. The oysters were fresh and enjoyable, but the abalone was very tough. As this was our first time trying it, we may not be experts, but from what we have seen elsewhere it is usually sliced very thinly and trimmed more carefully. This version was quite chewy and could definitely have been prepared better. Tabasco was also not brought with the oysters and we had to ask. There was also an issue with our reservation. My partner booked well in advance for Valentine’s Day and received confirmation, yet our booking was somehow not in their system when we arrived. As the restaurant was very busy, we were genuinely worried we might not be able to dine. The staff handled the situation politely and offered prosciutto and a glass of champagne while we waited, which we appreciated, but it was still surprising that this happened. The pork shoulder with truffle and horseradish cranberry potato foam was good but not particularly exciting. The menu even lists it as “foarm” rather than foam, which felt slightly careless for a Michelin Selected restaurant. Visually and texturally, the potato element was more like a cream or light sauce. Flavour wise it was good, though missing a real wow factor. For mains, the seaweed fed lamb was served in three styles. The slow cooked piece was excellent and very tender, but the lemon jam was almost impossible to taste, which was slightly disappointing. The lamb brasato with gnocchi was tender and enjoyable, but the pecorino was barely noticeable despite being a cheese that normally has a strong, salty presence. Dessert was the biggest letdown. As an Italian, I was especially interested to see how the classic desserts would be interpreted. The panna cotta was very plain and lacked the creamy vanilla depth one would expect. I do appreciate when restaurants create modern twists on classics, but the cannoli felt a bit confusing. The menu simply lists cannoli, ricotta cream and pistachio, so we were expecting something closer to the traditional texture and structure. What arrived was quite different, particularly the shell, and flavour wise the pistachio and ricotta notes were very muted. The coconut cream was pleasant, but it did not feel very Italian. We were also served small chocolate bites with the bill. While the gesture was appreciated, they were extremely bitter and not particularly enjoyable. Service throughout was friendly and professional. The overall plating was neat but did not quite feel at Michelin Selected level. Overall, the meal lacked some of the depth of flavour and technical precision we would expect at this level. The concept feels closer to contemporary European fusion with Italian references rather than a traditional Italian approach. It was an enjoyable evening, but not one we would choose to repeat.”
