Food: Flavor failure and paltry portions

Admittedly, Den Da Coffee & Tea's Bot Chien Fried Dough with Egg, Bun Rieu and Garlic Noodles with Shrimp all have their unique appeal. However, customer reviews reveal an unfortunate tendency towards 'horrible quality steak and taste', with the strong presence of garlic cited as a major detraction. Den Da manages to somewhat redeem itself by offering cheap prices, despite the decidedly mixed food quality, delivering good value.

  • Great Value

    Super cheap prices for amazing food, great value mentioned frequently.

  • Okay Taste

    Decent variety of Vietnamese food in a casual cafe setting.

Vibe: Underwhelming ambiance and pricey pours

Despite Den Da's sleek, modern decor enhancing some patrons' dining experiences, it becomes almost nullified when their drink prices come into play. Detracting from the otherwise positive ambiance, the costly nature of drinks at this establishment has been frequently highlighted as a sticking point in customer reviews.

  • Great Ambiance

    Modern decor, sleek and clean, enhances dining experience.

  • Bad Drinks

    Expensive drinks mentioned as a negative point in reviews.

Perks: Decent service dulled by disruption

Service at Den Da continues to hover from average to passable, even when busy. Complaints, unfortunately, swim greater with mentions of challenging parking situations and high noise levels disrupting conversations. There's also a downside to their outdoor seating – smoke from patio tables can drift inside the restaurant, disturbing guests.

  • Okay Service

    Some reviews highlight decent service despite restaurant being busy.

  • Hard To Park

    Complaints about parking being tough to find, expensive, or far.
