Buffet Cửu Vân Long Premium - Bitexco Sài Gòn

“It’s a buffet and reservation 1 day in advance is highly recommended. Approx 600k VND per pax IIRC. Atmosphere is extremely noisy as the locals are chatting non stop at their tables. If you are after a romantic getaway, think thrice. It’s more of a family gathering place. Food wise is abit of a hit and miss. Some are decent while some I felt don’t truly Vietnamese street food cuisine at its best. Probably due to the vast amount of food that is always turning over faster than the time needed to show some love in the cooking. Some guests do tend to be abit rude who don’t queue up while taking their food. It’s not exactly bad, but best is to try them without any expectations.”

“Great place for seafood buffet. Many choices seafood but also other Vietnamese, French, Italian, Chinese, etc dishes. See pictures. Be aware to make a reservation upfront (2 days) and after 7pm it gets very crowded. Service is also good, they clean your table fast so you can add your new dishes. Extra ice for your drinks or request them to bring the food to your table. I like to walk around and see and smell before I select the food. For sure I will visit again.”

“Food and service was amazing, booking ahead recommended, I thought I can do a walk in but no, 1.5hrs wait, was bit worth it. There was a whole crab 🦀, I didn't know how to crack into it, the waitress put gloves on, did it for me to show me. For one person, one 7Up can and small tip $36AUD, good luck getting that in Sydney.”

“I had the seafood buffet here and felt sick almost immediately after eating. The seafood tasted a bit off but I didn’t think much of it until I started feeling nauseous, uncomfortable and close to throwing up right after finishing my meal. It completely ruined the evening. For a buffet, I expect fresh food, especially with seafood. Some dishes seemed like they had been sitting out for too long and weren’t kept chilled properly. Very disappointing experience. I’m not sure if it was food poisoning, but I have never felt that sick so quickly from a meal. Definitely not coming back until they improve food quality and hygiene standards.”

“The restaurant offer wide range of seafood, sushi and other asian foods. Seafood was fresh and well seasoning. Food is filled up quickly. Desserts were ok, nothing special than other buffet restaurants.”
