What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Bien Dong Restaurant is a popular local spot renowned for its vast selection of fresh seafood, available prepared in numerous ways. While many appreciate the lively atmosphere and the ability to choose their own ingredients from live tanks, some diners have noted that service can be inattentive, and the food quality, while fresh, might be considered average by some.
"(Translated by Google) Waiters weren't very attentive and talked more to each other. Food mediocre, you can get much better for the same price
(Original)
Kellner waren nicht recht aufmerksam, haben sich mehr untereinander unterhalten. Essen mittelmäßig, kann man für den gleichen Preis deutlich besser bekommen"
