Our editors' picks — from fresh beachside seafood and Mì Quảng noodle shops to rooftop cocktail bars and French fine dining.
"One of Asia's great dining rooms. Pierre Gagnaire's inspired cuisine in a setting of colonial-era Vietnamese architecture overlooking the South China Sea."
"Pulled-from-the-ocean freshness, grilled over charcoal, eaten with your feet practically in the sand. The crab hot pot alone is worth a special trip."
"The best seats in Da Nang — open-air riverside terraces with Dragon Bridge views, an excellent cocktail list, and a menu that consistently delivers."
"The gold standard for Central Vietnamese cuisine in Da Nang. The Mì Quảng and Bún Bò Huế here are definitive versions — this is the real thing."
"Vietnam's coffee culture at its very best. A specialty roastery and café that single-handedly elevated Da Nang's café scene to international standards."
"Vietnam's highest rooftop bar. 360° views of the Han River, Dragon Bridge, and the East Sea from the 36th floor of the Novotel. The cocktails match the view."
"Vietnamese cuisine reimagined with intelligence and ambition. The cliff-top setting overlooking Bãi Bắc beach makes every meal feel genuinely extraordinary."
"The most iconic bánh mì in Da Nang. A decades-old institution with a queue that never lies — get here early or miss out entirely."
"Tucked near the Marble Mountains in a sprawling bamboo garden, this is the most atmospheric dining experience in the Da Nang area. Order the clay pot dishes."
