From Le Van Sy bridge, turn left to Hoang Sa (District 3, Ho Chi Minh City), the aroma of shrimp paste spreads everywhere, leading diners to the crowded beef noodle restaurant.

Each bowl of hot, steaming beef noodle soup is quickly served by the staff, attracting even those who just stop by.

Don't forget the pork rinds

With such "weird" opening hours, many office workers complain that they just finished work and already have... nothing to eat.

Bun bo bo Hoang Sa is basically the same as most other bun bo restaurants in Saigon. When coming to the restaurant, almost everyone immediately orders a 'full' bowl of bun bo. Such a bowl includes crab cakes, sausages, brisket, tendons, beef balls, pork legs, and no toppings are missing.

The ham here is diverse with all kinds: boneless ham, tendon ham, hoof ham, lean ham - whatever type you like, just order and we will have it.

Before picking up chopsticks to enjoy, diners should not forget to ask where the pork rind is. The pork rind is crispy and golden, adding a bit of richness to the bowl of noodles, making it very appealing. While picking up noodles, picking up meat, and biting into the pork rind, all worries seem to disappear.

Open from 5pm, close at 2am

The restaurant opens from 5pm to 7pm. From 4:30pm, some people try to come early to enjoy the famous bowl of beef noodle soup.

Ms. Huyen Chi (District 8) shared: "This was my favorite restaurant when I was a student. The broth here is very rich, the meat is tender and especially the crispy pork fat pieces, bringing an interesting feeling when eating. It is really worth trying!"

Despite the crowds, the staff still welcomes diners very warmly. They are always busy meeting the needs of customers, both when eating in and when taking away.

The online community has been praising this noodle shop for the warm and attentive attitude of the staff, making every diner feel welcome.

"The staff is friendly, quick, and attentive to customers. For example, I didn't know there was pork rind, my tablemate asked for it, the staff saw that and brought it to me, happy!"

"The restaurant is very fast, it takes 1-2 minutes to order even though it's very crowded", some "winged" comments on Google Maps.

On Foody, Ngan Cao said: "I have been to many beef noodle shops in Saigon but I still like the taste here the most."

Sang Le praised it as wonderful and shared: "The noodles are delicious, especially the spring rolls are much more delicious than many other places I've eaten. The space is quite airy, motorbikes can easily park. The staff is extremely cute, just visit once and you'll be satisfied right away!".

It is not difficult to find a delicious beef noodle shop in Saigon, but to make it special like here, it requires sophistication in every step of preparation.

From the rich broth, fresh meat to crispy pork rinds, everything is carefully selected. It is these small details that make Hoang Sa beef noodle soup a "coordinate" that cannot be missed by food lovers.
