Cua Vang Restaurant
Nhà hàng Cua Vàng Bãi Cháy
A mid-to-high-end seafood restaurant in Bai Chay famous for its claypot crab prepared using a family recipe, suitable for formal dinners.
Located at 32 Phan Chu Trinh Street in the Cai Dam area, this restaurant is about a ten-minute drive from the Bai Chay Tourist Wharf. The signature dish is claypot-cooked crab, served with thin rice vermicelli and mushrooms in a rich, dark sauce. They also offer crab hotpot and live seafood, alongside Vietnamese, Eastern, and Western dishes. Eating crab takes time, and the air-conditioned environment is suited for a leisurely dinner rather than a quick, budget meal. Premium pricing is the most common feedback, and the reputation of non-seafood dishes is not as strong as the crab, so it is wise to ask about prices before ordering. Expect to spend about 250,000–550,000 VND per person, and more when focusing on crab.
