Gia
A one-Michelin-starred restaurant opposite the Temple of Literature, serving modern Vietnamese cuisine made with seasonal local ingredients, offering tasting menus only.
Opened in 2020 by Chef Sam Tran and Head of Operations Long Tran, the restaurant's name is derived from the Vietnamese word for "family." It has maintained its one-star rating since the inaugural edition of the Vietnam guide in 2023. It offers a single seasonal tasting menu of about 11–12 courses, emphasizing acidity and texture. The menu changes entirely each season, so there are no permanent signature dishes; past creations included a reimagining of Hanoi's turmeric fish using sea bass. According to media reports, lunch is around 1.8 million VND and dinner is around 2.5 million VND, though official prices are not listed and are subject to confirmation at the time of booking. Online reservations are required in advance. Closed on Mondays. Lunch days differ between the official website and the Michelin Guide, so please confirm when booking. Located at 61 Văn Miếu Street.
Opening hours
Tue–Thu 18:00–22:30; Fri–Sun 11:00–14:30, 18:00–22:30; closed on Mondays (official website)
