The restaurant space is large, the tables and chairs are arranged airy so it is not too smoky.
There are about 30 grilled dishes (beef, chicken, pork belly, frog, fish, chicken feet, some days there are even giant freshwater prawns…) pre-marinated with a beautiful meat color but a bit bland and need to be dipped.
The restaurant is similar to other BBQ places that use green dipping sauce, but at Khoi it is fatty and a bit spicy, removing the smell of shrimp and fish.
The cooked dishes are okay, including soup, stir-fried noodles, and fried rice, which can be eaten while waiting for the food to be grilled.
There are many types of crab salad, lotus root, coconut shells, and
raw sauerkraut. The fruit counter is vast and filled with watermelon, apples, longans, guavas, and mangoes.
Weekend ticket price is 140k (weekdays 120k), not including drinks and hotpot, enthusiastic service staff. Weekends are quite crowded so you can book a table in advance to get a seat. Going with family, everyone will come back with a full stomach.
