My family and I decided to try this place on a friend's recommendation, but we had no idea we could order the roasted catfish ahead of time. When we got there, there was no wait so we were seated immediately. We ordered a com tam thit nuong, wonton noodle soup, and XL roasted catfish. It was a good thing we ordered more food in addition to the catfish, because we were pretty hungry and it took nearly an hour for it to come out. The com tam was okay--the egg cake had artificial crab in it which was a bit strange to me and the thịt nướng was super dry. The wonton soup was better but the wonton filling was a little dry as well. The roast catfish was definitely the star! The skin was super crispy yet the meat was really moist. I'd say it was the best I've had so far compared to all of the roasted catfish I've tried at other restaurants. And despite the long wait, the service was still really good. However, I would definitely make sure to order ahead to avoid the long wait for the fish.

We made reservations for 11 ppl and ate 2 large fish and 2 plates of beef! The price for the bake fish is reasonable for $58 for a large one. Fish was fresh and crispy! The service and ambiance were friendly and always there for us! I will definitely come back!

This eatery specializes in baked whole catfish ( Ca Nuong Da Don) and the prices are fair. I Opted for the medium sized catfish. I make it a point to call in and place my order so when our party arrived the whole catfish and condiments are served promptly. All the fresh veggies, noodles, rice paper and sauces are included to make handrolls. Parking here is easy to find since it's a strip center shared by many businesses. Service by the family & staff are friendly and accommodating. I've always eaten in, so the food is piping hot, and the catfish skin is crispy - just the way I like it. The interior decor is basic and casual, so this place is convenient. Overall, a good option for healthy meal and I recommend Nam Giao restaurant.

Wow this spot is a hidden gem! We for the cat fish and it was so flavorful! I have yet to stop thinking about going back. And don't get me started on their coffee it was so good!!! I enjoyed making my own spring rolls. Service was quick. And the ambiance of a traditional Vietnamese restaurant.

Every time I come down to Viet town, I wanted to eat ca nướng and this place is it. I like their first here. Really good and satisfied my cravings. If ur around here come check ur out. Mind you they will charge anything you want extra.

This spot has a been a favorite for a long time for those that love ca nuong (baked catfish). They have been around for a long time and have been specializing in ca nuong since the beginning. I love that they give you plenty of wraps, herbs, lettuce, pickled items, and everything needed for your baked catfish. The fish comes out perfectly baked with the crispy skin and always with plenty of meat. When I last went here we got a large for 3 people and it was the perfect amount of food. The service here is also excellent. They check up on you and make sure to fill your drinks. Just be warned some of their other food items aren't very good. However, they have some really good banh beo. But the ca nuong is definitely the star and what you should be getting here no doubt.

Food is fresh and the skin of the fried fish is interestingly crispy. It is definitely unique. The cha(baked egg) in the com tam is flavorful and not dry, very good. Com tam is not bad here. I do know this place is known for their fried fish so we decide to try it. Any order of the fried catfish comes with a small plate of vermicelli, fresh mints, lettuce, and preserved veggies, as well as rice paper. This fish size was definitely good size for 3 people, however the lettuce and rice paper was less and not enough to wrap our remaining fish. The rice paper tray was also rusty/moldy so come at your own precaution. This restaurant is located in the plaza with shared parking at where Saigon market is located.
