5.0 / 5.0(876 reviews)
An actually tender, tasty and very juicy steak. Although I ordered medium rare and it was towards medium more. It was the first done well steak out of the dozen + steaks I tried over the years in all sorts of restaurants. Idk about food, but what I ordered was very good, the banana roll dessert with ice cream is a must have. On its own it is not that special but that ice cream combo hits different. The view is great and points straight towards the sword lake. Considering the state of Hanoi it's one of the very few places with great view. Restaurant itself is modern, clean and the staff is very attentive and ready to serve. Only thing that I tried and it didn't deliver was garlic bread. A bit too oily and not enough garlic. On the other hand the fries were perfectly crispy and seasoned just enough with salt. Orange juice was freshly made and was definitely solid, can't go wrong with that. The music is calm sometimes instrumental sometimes with vocals, it has that fancier music vibe. Overall I'd give this restaurant 8.6/10. Would have been a 9 with good garlic bread. TLDR: Order the steak it's cheap as hell for its quality as a foreigner and very good, juicy and tender. The best restaurant in Hanoi. Really good prices compared to similar rooftop restaurants in the area. Amazing food, service and atmosphere. There was a wide selection and variety of food in the spread, all of which were very well made. I actually looked forward to having breakfast here every day during my stay at the hotel. The staff were all so attentive and helpful, and the manager Susan, was very kind to make us special drinks on some days! I loved the coffee here very much. I’ll miss having meals here.

We stayed at the San Grand Hotel for 4 nights and had the breakfast buffet at the restaurant every single morning. The hospitality and service here is top notch. Susan showed us great hospitality by recommending and making drinks like egg coffee and papaya smoothies. And of course, the food and fruits are great and fresh, and there is a nice variety for breakfast. PLUS it overlooks the lake. Amazing.

Exceptional dinner at San Dining, it offers outstanding cuisine and impeccable service led by Susan. From the succulent Vietnamese bamboo beef to the attentive care of the staff, every aspect exceeds expectations. With stylish decor and a vibrant atmosphere, it's a must-visit for a remarkable dining experience.
