Testimonials

I have made reservation but I can not go. Sorry. Cheong

Okay for me. I like the concept of the restaurant. The signature herbal drink is unique and delicious. The food is also seasoned quite uniquely, but it's not quite "wow" considering the price. The service is okay. And of course, the price is quite steep. I think this price is mainly for tourists considering the food and service received. Overall, everyone should try it.

Delicious food, great service experience. The staff are extremely friendly. The atmosphere is relaxing and the music playlist is amazing. I will definitely come back for more experiences 🩵🩵🩵

Everything was great! The food, the drinks, the service… looking forward to visit again! ✨ highly recommended!

Food , cocktails, service was great 👍🏻 Will visit again when coming Vietnam

We happened to be there during a meal with a live singer performing! The venue was very beautiful.

This was my first time trying a herbal bar, and I was quite surprised by SÂM. The space was unique, beautiful, and had many small details that were meticulously cared for. The drinks were also creative, but I was most impressed by the food – absolutely delicious, with quite unusual flavors that were incredibly addictive. It was a completely different experience compared to the cocktail bars I've been to in Saigon.

Amazing place for authentic Chinese cocktail. Hin was attending she is super warm and had nice conversations. Highly recommend.

Very good cocktails and Miss Hin, the mixologist is very sweet. Definitely should make a visit if you’re in HCM. 🍸

Discovered a hidden gem of a bar that's sure to keep you coming back! ✨ The atmosphere perfectly captures the spirit of old Hong Kong, with warm lighting and a distinctly retro vibe. The food is surprisingly delicious, a perfect accompaniment to drinks. Gather your friends here to unwind, relax, chat, and have a blast – pure bliss! I'd love to come back for a few more nights! Sam Saigon is such a fun hidden bar gem serving vintage old-Hong Kong vibes! Warm dim lights and retro decor create a unique ambiance. The food is surprisingly good and goes hand-in-hand with drinks. Grab your friends, lose track of time here for a lovely sloppy night out. 10/10 would come back for more mischief and drinks.

The food is amazing, and the cocktails are outstanding. I love how SÂM draws inspiration from Chợ Lớn’s Chinese heritage, traditional herbal medicine, teas, and spices to create such unique and beautifully balanced drinks. Every cocktail has its own story and character. Such a creative and memorable experience!

A pleasant date at Sam Saigon Honestly, Sam has been doing a great job recreating the atmosphere of a traditional pharmacy in Cholon. The lighting is just right for privacy but still highlights the food. The staff are enthusiastic, and the food is presented neatly and attractively. I will definitely come back soon.

The place is beautiful and unique, and the food is delicious too. I'll definitely visit again.

Had such a lovely evening at SÂM! The space is beautiful and has such a unique vibe, you can really feel the inspiration from the traditional herbal apothecaries of Chợ Lớn, but everything is presented in a very modern way. The food was honestly really good, and I loved how creative and unexpected some of the flavours were. The concept is quite different from the usual cocktail bars in Saigon, which made the whole experience feel more memorable. Definitely a place I’d come back to for good drinks, food, and a beautiful atmosphere

The concept is unique and every corner is meticulously designed, so you can automatically get a beautiful photo just by pointing your camera. The service is good, and all the dishes suit my taste, so I give it a 10 out of 10.

The second-floor bar of Herbal Bar is reminiscent of a traditional Chinese medicine shop from my childhood, where you can pick and prepare medicine. It incorporates many oriental herbs, teas, and spices (oolong tea, sesame, kelp, pepper, etc.) into its cocktails, making it quite unique. The menu listed familiar traditional Chinese (Fujian/Guangdong...) home-style dishes, and I didn't have high expectations. However, the food was a pleasant surprise. These everyday snacks were reimagined by the chef, and the exquisite cooking techniques were amazing. However, perhaps to accompany the drinks, the flavors were a bit salty. A bowl of white rice would have been perfect at that moment!

I went there for a birthday dinner, and the restaurant was very thoughtful, preparing a very cute birthday cake. The food was delicious and left a strong impression, the drinks were unique and captivating, and the service was impeccable – enthusiastic, lovely, and very dedicated.

- The restaurant is nice, the food is decent, but the service is a 3/4 out of 10 😆

There aren't many dishes, but it's okay. You should try the chicken and char siu pork; the sticky rice is also very good and not at all bland. The staff are lovely.

Location: Easy to find, next to Nôm Dining Decor: Styled like an old-fashioned Chinese herbal medicine shop, the space is small and cozy. There are few seats, so please remember to make a reservation before you arrive. The lighting is quite dim; you'll need to use a flash or adjust the brightness for photos. Price: From 100k VND upwards. The food is lightly seasoned in a typical Chinese style with a strong aroma of chili paste, spiciness, and cinnamon. If you want to experience this, remember to visit Sâm! Parking: Free - in front of the restaurant
