Quán Ốc Như

The food here is very good, especially the snails, which are fresh, tasty, and well-cooked. Even when the place is busy, the waiting time is not too long, so you can enjoy your meal without getting impatient. The restaurant has many staff members, and they work quickly and efficiently, making the service smooth and organized. Another convenient point is the parking. There is plenty of space for motorbikes in the alley near the restaurant, and even nearby houses open up their areas to provide extra parking. Overall, it’s a comfortable and easy place to visit, with good food, fast service, and helpful staff.

What I love most about this place is how they don’t skimp on the toppings. Whether it’s the garlic pork fat concoction or green onion oil and peanuts, they really pile it on. Of course the seafood and snails here are always fresh because it gets so busy that nothing sits. My Vietnamese aunties always drag me here early so we have more options before things run out.

Fresh, delish seafood with plenty of choices on the menu, though quite a few weren’t available when we ordered (especially the prawns we were excited about - still heard they’re worth trying). Service was quick during peak hour, not the warmest but efficient. Also quite interesting to see how the whole alley joins hands to run this place, with add-on services like bike parking and freshly baked bread.

Been half a year since I last ate here. Price seems to have increased. Paid 910K for this 4 dishes with bread. Previously I estimate it was only about 700k+. Fuel increased I guess.

Seafood night at Quán Ốc Như in Ho Chi Minh 🦐🦀 Everything was super fresh and flavorful — from the grilled scallops with spring onion & peanuts to the spicy clams. The vibe is super local, crowded but fun, and the flavors really hit different. If you’re into seafood, this spot is a gem! 💯
