As part of the hotel refurbishment, the new restaurant design by Noor Design and Group8 Asia, brings senses and culture, spirit and communal experience that are the very essence of Saigon.

Inspired by Saigonese traditions, local materials, customs and styling from the heydays of the city, the all-day-dining space has been enlarged and now takes up most of the mezzanine level and is flooded with natural light through higher ceilings and windows, opening up great views to Dong Khoi and Dong Du streets. Saigon Café Restaurant seats 254 guests.

There are seven live stations, including four show areas, featuring seafood, Pan-Asian cuisine, Vietnamese specialties, Western, Japanese and Indian delights.

Most of the cooking is done in full view of the guests, with much theatre and interaction. There is a long table by the window, along with more intimate seating, overlooking Dong Khoi, giving diners a great vantage point for people-watching. 

The main area is laid out in a spacious sleek setting designed to take guests on a culinary journey.

The restaurant will launch its festive themed buffets for Christmas from December 23 to 25 and New Year themed buffets on December 30-31 and January 1.
