Mui Ne’s food court scene has quietly grown into one of the best ways to eat your way through this breezy beach town. Forget committing to one restaurant — here, you can wander between stalls, sampling everything from sizzling Vietnamese street food to fragrant Indian curries, fresh seafood, and even wood-fired pizza. Perfect for mixed travel groups or anyone who likes variety on the plate.
📍 Most food courts sit right along Nguyen Dinh Chieu Street — the main coastal road — so you’ll pass them on your way to the beach, the kite-surfing spots, or back to your hotel after sunset.
🌊 Local & Global Flavors Under One Roof
Seafood Hotpot with a Coastal Twist
Freshly caught snapper, shrimp, and squid go from the boat to your table in hours. The southern-style broth is subtly sweet, and banana flower petals plus fresh herbs give it a Mui Ne signature.
Banh Canh Cha Ca – Thick Noodle Soup with Fish Cakes
This version uses Phan Thiet’s famous fish cakes, made from mackerel landed daily. Dense noodles soak up the bold, fish-based stock, topped with lime, chili, and crispy shallots.
Dragon Fruit & Crab Salad
Red dragon fruit straight from local farms, tossed with sweet crab meat and crushed peanuts — refreshing, light, and perfect for hot afternoons.
Grilled Seafood Skewers & Scallops
Charcoal-grilled right by the beach, marinated in Vietnamese herbs and fish sauce. Served sizzling with a smoky aroma that draws a crowd.
Grilled Pork Skewers with Coastal Honey
Sweet-salty dipping sauce made from local honey and peanuts. A portable, flavor-packed snack.
Plus: Indian curries with tropical veggies, tacos with lemongrass beef, lemongrass-shrimp pizza, smoothie bowls, pandan desserts, craft beer, and strong Vietnamese coffee.
