Tam Tam Cafe & Restaurant Hoi An

We took refuge at Tam Tam Cafe in Old Town Hoi An while waiting for the rain to stop. We ordered some drinks and ice cream to pass the time. The restaurant itself was charming and cozy. I can only comment on the pizza since that’s the only dish we tried, aside from the drinks and ice cream. The pizza was good, and the overall vibe of the place was lovely. Too bad we didn’t get to try more from their menu—maybe next time.

We stumbled upon this cafe while looking for a breakfast place. We ordered a Banh Mi, Pho, Char siu fried rice and pesto pasta with 2 glasses of black coffee and coconut juice. The food experience was good but the waiting time is not. We waited quite a bit before we got our food. Good that the outcome of the food wasn't disappointing. Can give it a try if you dont mind the wait.

We had a very nice beef stir fried noodles and vegetarian curry. Amazing taste! Service was great, very fast and polite. Sitting at a nice table with view onto the quiet street, very nice and peaceful!

If you’re considering Tam Tam Café, do yourself a favour and steer clear. We went there as part of a guided tour. This was by far the worst dining experience we’ve had in Vietnam. The staff have absolutely no personality, they respond in a cold, morbid, and unfriendly manner, and even start cleaning your table and removing condiments while you’re still eating, clearly trying to rush you out so they can fill the seats with the next wave of tourists. To make things worse, they actually place “reserved” signs on tables marked “TOURIST,” which is both disrespectful and discriminatory. The atmosphere feels mechanical and profit-driven, with zero hospitality or care for customers. What truly crossed the line, however, was that the restaurant allowed street vendors to walk in and harass diners at their tables. When we politely asked one vendor to leave, he became aggressive and yelled “go back to your country”, unfortunately with minimal intervention from the staff. It’s a real pity, because the food itself is genuinely tasty and well-prepared. Unfortunately, the service and overall experience completely overshadow it. There are so many wonderful restaurants in Hoi An that treat guests with genuine warmth and respect, Tam Tam Café should not be one of them. Avoid at all costs.

We had a great meal in Hoi An! Our group of 15 was managed wonderfully, and we still felt we received personal, attentive service. Our server, Ngoc B., was fantastic. The food was delicious, and the ambience was relaxing. Highly recommend!

Spring rolls were the best thing we ate. Had the com ga which was like supermarket chicken and microwave rice. Wouldn’t recommend. Stir fry noodles were fine but wouldn’t get again. Not great service just walked in without greeting and sat down. When paying didn’t look at us or speak to us just handed a receipt. Very pretty restaurant but honestly wouldn’t recommend or go back.

I am sharing my previous experience when dining here. This restaurant was arranged by our tour guide & food was also pre ordered by them. It's like a set menu. Some dishes taste ok, but some are not to my liking. Everything here was average. The environment is quite quiet, so u can peacefully enjoy your meal.

Vietnamese cuisine with French ambience in it. The staff are very friendly and would try to accommodate the taste to your liking. The banh mi is super delicious as well as their scallops.
