My wife and I visited the restaurant mid way through our stay at the wonderful Intercontinental. We were treated at the bar and had our aperitif on the terrace in front of the restaurant along with a beautiful cocktail. We then were escorted into the restaurant where our host sat us a lovely window setting. We were well escorted around the menu by Phu and also around the wine list by sommelier Jimmy. The entrée, main and desserts were excellent and a credit to all of the staff at the venue. We were also surprised by a lovely cake as my wife and I were recently celebrating our Anniversary. The venue is not cheap but if you want to appreciate some excellent fare I would recommend a visit.

The setting and the resort are spectacular. The approach to the restaurant via "cable car" (really a funicular) is unique and fun. The restaurant is gorgeous, all in b&w in a colonial style. The service is very professional. I began with Champagne (Billecart-Salmon) accompanied with several small canapes, all good and interesting. I ordered the 4-course menu (according to my advance reading it was a choice of 5 or 7 courses--now 4 or 6). I was shocked that no amuse-bouche was given: we went straight to the starter course. It was tasty but a bit weird. Described as chestnut veloute, it was really a puree, stiff as custard. The next course was grilled hamachi with herbs and a slice of pineapple. Interesting but not amazing. The main course was supposed to be Wagyu beef, but as I do not eat beef, they substituted the lobster course from the 6-course menu. It was a very nice lobster dish with coconut milk and ginger and a few grains of "Manchurian wild rice". Dessert was in the Pierre Gagnaire tradition of 6 small plates of varying appeal. A rice cake was more like a creme caramel but with the custard a rice pudding. I would have preferred the classic, but that would be too boring, probably. The others were similar variations, mostly with Asian products (jack fruit, pineapple, ginger, yellow mango, etc.) With coffee were served 3 petits fours, each minuscule but quite tasty. I didn t have anything I didn t like, but nothing was really mind-blowing. For this I paid 305 USD. Was it worth it? Yes for the overall experience, but based on the food alone, no. By the way, the drive to the resort is spectacular too, with views of Danang across the bay. The huge Lady Buddha statue is illuminated at night, and with a full moon on the water it was splendid.
